ROTATION "L" and "R" - Controls the left and right direction of the crane rotation. The crane rotation
is limited to 400 degrees.
POWER (Non Proportional Systems with Engine Controls) - Energizes safety shutoff valve. See
page 22328 for detailed operating instructions and warnings.
TRIGGER (Proportional Systems Only) - Varies the flow rate delivered to the crane valve. The
farther the trigger is pulled, the faster the selected crane function operates.
OVERLOAD SENSING SYSTEM
This crane is equipped with an Overload Sensing System. If the capacity of the crane is exceeded,
the "Winch Up", "Boom Down", and "Boom Out" functions will be shut down. The "Winch Down",
"Boom Up", and "Boom In" functions will continue to operate and can be used to relieve the overload
condition. The "Rotation" function also will continue to operate.
The Overload system is inoperative if the boom elevation is at the bottom or top limit of travel. To
relieve this condition, raise or lower the boom slightly before lifting the load.
TWO-BLOCK SENSING SYSTEM
This crane is equipped with an anti two-block device that is mounted at the tip of the boom. If the
snatch block/overhaul weight contacts the device the "Winch Up", "Boom Down", and "Boom Out"
functions are disabled. The "Winch Down", "Boom Up", and "Boom In" functions will continue to
operate and can be used to relieve the two-block condition. Refer to Drawing 19050 for parts
breakdown and configuration information.
MANUAL TELESCOPIC BOOM
The 10 to 20 ft. boom has a 4 ft. manual telescoping section in addition to the 6 ft. power extension.
A pin locks the manual extension into either the extended or retracted position.
TRUCK SETUP & OUTRIGGERS
1. The truck should be parked on ground that is as level and as firm as possible when using the
crane.
2. The center of the crane should be positioned close enough to the job so that it can be operated at
a reach that puts the load within the rated capacity of the crane.
3. Set the vehicle parking brake and put the vehicle transmission in "park" if it is an automatic.
4. Deploy the outriggers to help stabilize the vehicle against rocking or overturning when lifting with
the crane.
PREPARATION FOR TRAVEL
1. Return the outriggers to the stowed position. Install and secure all pins.
2. Stow the crane boom in the boom support.
3. Hook the winch line to the tie down point on the boom and apply light tension.
4. Disengage the PTO pump and idle speed control.
5. Unplug the control pendant and store in a body compartment or the cab.
