Lattice extension
Your truck crane can be equipped with different lattice extensions.
All lattice extensions increase the range and thus the application options of your
truck crane. However, they require very special safety precautions, both for
rigging and also for crane operation.
Only use your truck crane with the counterweight sections that belong to
your truck crane!
Your truck crane and the corresponding lattice extensions are adapted to each
other. Your truck crane and the corresponding lattice extensions are labelled with
the same serial number. The truck crane may only be operated with these lattice
extensions.
Observe the supplied documentation!
Only assemble the lattice extensions in the combinations that are specified as
approved combinations in the supplied
lattice extension operating manual
.
Other combinations are prohibited.
Only use the lattice extensions for the rigging modes specified in the supplied
lifting capacity table
(lattice length, counterweight combination, outrigger span,
slewing range, telescope status). Other rigging modes are prohibited!
Observe the sequence specified in the checklists for rigging work. The descrip-
tion of the individual rigging steps assumes that all the required, previous rigging
work has already been carried out according to the checklist used.
Observe the required transport conditions!
Make sure that the required transport condition is established according to the
supplied
lattice extension operating manual
before you install or remove a lattice
extension and before you perform crane operation or drive the truck crane with
folded lattice extension. An incorrectly established transport condition is
dangerous for various operations.
– The lattice extension could fall down during rigging or swing unexpectedly
because the required connections have not been established.
– The folded lattice extension could fall down during crane operation or when
driving the truck crane.
– When driving, the lattice extension could hit the main boom or swing out
unexpectedly when driving around corners.
– The permissible vehicle width or height could be exceeded when driving.
