Caution!
Not maintaining the minimum distances creates an acute
risk of fatality for the operator and others.

Extending the extension booms before the main boom is in
nearly vertical position causes acute risk of fatality for the operator.
Only extend the extension booms when the main boom has been raised to a near-vertical position. See
‘Unfolding the crane’.

Make sure that all mechanically actuated functions are properly secured with connection pin and
