Job Preparation
Before equipment use:
• Barricade the entire area where the equipment is
working and keep all unnecessary personnel out of the
work area.
• Ensure that the equipment is properly equipped
including access steps, covers, doors, guards, and
controls.
• Conduct a visual inspection for cracked welds, damaged
components, loose pins/bolts, and wire connections.
Any item or component that is found to be loose or
damaged (broken, chipped, cracked, worn-through, etc.)
must be repaired or replaced. Inspect for evidence of
improper maintenance (consult your
Service Manual ).
• Check for proper functioning of all controls and operator
aids (e.g. RCL).
• Check all braking (e.g. wheel, hoist, and swing brakes)
and holding devices before operation.
You must ensure that the outriggers and stabilizers are
properly extended and set before performing any lifting
operations. On models equipped with outriggers that can be
pinned at the intermediate positions, the outriggers must
also be pinned when operating from the intermediate
positions.
Clear all personnel from the outrigger area before extending
or retracting the outriggers. Carefully follow the procedures
in this
Operator Manual when extending or retracting the
outriggers. Death or serious injury could result from improper
equipment set up on outriggers.
Be familiar with surface conditions and the presence of
overhead obstructions and power lines.
Working
Operator shall be responsible for all operations under their
direct control. When safety of an operation is in doubt,
operator shall stop the equipment’s functions in a controlled
manner. Lift operations shall resume only after safety
concerns have been addressed or the continuation of
equipment operations is directed by the lift supervisor.
Know the location and function of all machine controls.
Make sure all persons are away from the equipment and the
Travel Select Lever is in the “N” (Neutral) position with the
parking brake engaged before starting the engine.
Sparks from the equipment’s electrical system and/or engine
exhaust can cause an explosion.
Do not operate this
equipment in an area with flammable dust or vapors, unless
good ventilation has removed the hazard.
Carbon monoxide fumes from the engine exhaust can cause
suffocation in an enclosed area. Good ventilation is very
important when operating the equipment.
Before actuating swing or any other equipment function,
sound the horn and verify that all personnel are clear of
rotating and moving parts.
Never operate the equipment when darkness, fog, or other
visibility restrictions make operation unsafe. Never operate a
equipment in thunderstorms or high winds.
Always be aware of your working environment during
operation of the equipment. Avoid contacting any part of the
equipment with external objects.
C l e a r a l l p e r s o n n e l f r o m t h e c o u n t e r w e i g h t a n d
superstructure area before removing the counterweight.
Keep unauthorized personnel clear of the working area
during operation.
Only the equipment operator shall occupy the equipment
when in operation.
You must always be aware of everything around the
equipment while lifting or traveling. If you are unable to
clearly see in the direction of motion, you must post a look
out or signal person before moving the equipment or making
a lift. Sound the horn to warn personnel
Operate the equipment from the operator’s control station.
Do not reach in a window or door to operate any controls.
Operate the equipment slowly and cautiously, looking
carefully in the direction of movement.
A good practice is to make a “dry run” without a load before
making the first lift. Become familiar with all factors peculiar
to the job site.
Ensure the rope is properly routed on the hook block and
boom nose and that all rope guards are in place.
