7.6 ECONOMICAL DRIVING
You can decrease fuel use and extend the life of the tires if you follow these points:

Develop good driving habits.

Only idle the engine at a high speed when it is necessary. Make sure that the gear
selector is always at a high gear. When more engine power is necessary, increase the
engine RPM speed.

Do not move the throttle or brake pedal quickly.

Do not turn the crane sharply.

Do not start to move the crane quickly.

The most efficient speed to move the crane is at 3/4 of the maximum.

When you move the crane, keep the engine coolant temperature between 70°C and
95°C (158
°
F – 203
°
F).
CAUTION
When the engine coolant temperature is too low or too high, the performance of
the engine decreases.

Always make sure that the tires have the correct pressure.
CAUTION
If the tire pressure is too low, the tires wear incorrectly and they increase the
fuel consumption.
