Published 10-21-2011, Control # 055-03
Inspect the Crane Structure and Booms for Damage
Thoroughly inspect the crane structure and booms for the
following:
1.
Inspect for loose mounting hardware. Tighten any loose
hardware.
2.
Inspect for cracked or broken welds. Do not operate the
crane if a critical weld is cracked or broken until the weld
is repaired. Contact your Grove distributor.
3.
Inspect for missing or unreadable warning decals.
Replace if necessary.
4.
Inspect for excessive rust or corrosion on crane
structure and booms. Paint any areas with excessive
rust or corrosion.
5.
Inspect for missing items. Replace if necessary.
6.
Inspect the crane for any damage that might inhibit safe
operation of the crane. Repair any damage.
Testing the Load Moment Indicator (Optional)
See the Load Moment Indicator manual furnished with this
crane and test the indicator according to instructions in the
manual.
MISCELLANEOUS MAINTENANCE
Batteries/Charging System
NOTE:
Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and
explosive gases. To avoid personal injury, when
checking, testing or charging batteries:
•
DO NOT
use smoking materials near batteries.
•
Keep arcs, sparks and flames away from
batteries.
•
Provide ventilation and wear safety glasses.
•
Never check battery charge by placing a metal
object across the posts. The sparks could
explode battery gases and cause injury or
death. Use a voltmeter or hydrometer.
Checking the Charging System
Check the voltmeter reading on the instrument panel.
Normal voltmeter readings are as follows:
Normal Operating Ranges
Engine above idle - 14 to 16 volts
Engine stopped - 10 to 14 volts
A reading of less than 10 volts with the engine at low idle
indicates a low battery charge.
A reading of less than 14 volts with the engine speed
above low idle indicates a problem in the charging
system. The system should be checked out by an
qualified service technician.
Charging the Battery
Under normal conditions, the engine’s alternator will have no
problem keeping a charge on the batteries. The only
condition in which the battery(s) may cause a problem is
when they have been completely discharged for a long
period of time. Under this condition the alternator may not be
able to recharge the battery(s) and a battery charger will be
required for charging the battery(s).
Before using a battery charger, an attempt can be made to
recharge the battery using the engine alternator by first jump
starting the crane (See
Jump Starting
, in Section 3) and
letting the engine run.
DO NOT
charge a frozen battery; it may explode and cause
injury. Let the battery warm up before attaching a charger.
Charging rates between 3 to 50 amperes are satisfactory if
no excessive gassing or spewing of electrolyte occurs or the
battery does not feel excessively warm (over 125° F [52° C]).
If spewing or gasing occurs or temperatures exceed 125° F
(52° C), the charging rate must be reduced or temporarily
stopped to permit cooling.
Replacing the Battery
NOTE:
The fluid in electric storage batteries contains
sulfuric acid, which is
POISON
and can cause
SEVERE CHEMICAL BURNS.
Avoid all contact of
fluid with eyes, skin or clothing. Use proper
protective gear when handling batteries.
DO NOT
tip any battery beyond a 45° angle in any direction.
If fluid contact does occur, follow the First Aid
suggestions that follows.
Battery Electrolyte First Aid
•
External Contact
- Flush with water.
•
Eyes
- Flush with water for at least 15 minutes and get
immediate medical attention.
