proceed as follows.

unpack the product and check contents against the parts list in these instructions. should there be any damaged or missing parts
contact your supplier immediately. We recommend two people assemble the crane as follows:
a) Lower the crane legs. Lock them in place with the pins and split pins.
b) rotate the assembled crane onto its wheels.
c) open the valve at top of ram by turning anti-clockwise and pump 10-20 times. this will purge any air that may have entered during
transit.
d) Pull crane jib up slightly, close valve and pump the handle. the jib will now raise. Pump the jib all the way up once and lower it
again (this will check the oil level).
e) crane is now ready. Ensure that it is complete and not damaged. If you experience any problems contact your supplier immediately.
