RT75 Rough Terrain Crane
07 - 5
7.7 STEERING OPERATION
A. The crane has a hydraulic booster system which makes it easy to turn the crane in all
conditions.
B. You can adjust the steering-wheel height and angle when you push the pedal at the
bottom of the steering-wheel.
C. When you move the crane, follow these points:

Look around before you turn the steering-wheel. Turn the steering-wheel after
you make sure that it is safe to move.

When necessary, set the transmission to a lower gear to decrease the speed of
the crane as you turn.

Decrease the speed slowly while you turn the steering-wheel in the same
direction as the turn.

If you over-steer, decrease the speed while you turn the steering-wheel in the
opposite direction of the turn.
Do not turn the steering-wheel quickly in one direction unless it is an
emergency. Make your turns smoothly to keep the crane laterally stable. When
you complete the turn, lightly and immediately turn the steering-wheel to the
neutral position to prevent an unstable condition.

Decrease the speed of the vehicle and move down one transmission gear if you
have a sharp turn.
