55M4500CCE00 REV A 

 

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

The purpose of this manual is to provide the calibration technician with the  procedures 
essential  for  the  promotion  of  proper  machine  operation  for  its  intended  purpose.  The 
importance of proper usage cannot be overstressed. 
The  calibration  technician  should  have  read,  and  be  familiar  with,    the    instruction  
manual supplied with the system. 
All  information  in  this  manual  should  be  read  and  understood  before  any  attempt  is  
made to calibrate the machine. 

 

Since  the  manufacturer  has  no  direct  control  over  machine  application  and  operation, 
conformance  with  good  safety  practice  in  this  area  is  the  responsibility  of  the  user  and  
his operating personnel. 

 

All  procedures  herein  are  based  on  the  use  of  the  system  under  proper  operating 
conditions,  with  no    deviations  from  the  original  design.  Alteration  and/or  modification  
of  the  equipment  are  strictly  forbidden  without  written  approval  from  RaycoWylie 
Systems. 

 

The  i4500  RaycoWylie  Systems  Rated  Capacity  Indicator  (RCI)  is  to  be   regarded  only  as  
an  aid  to  the  operator.  When  the  parameters  are  set  correctly,  the  indicator  will  warn  
the  crane  operator  of  an  approaching  overload  condition  that  could  cause  damage  to 
equipment, property, and/or injury to the operator or site workers in the vicinity of the 
crane  and  its  load.  Prior  to  the  calibration  being  completed  the  system  will  not  provide 
correct  warnings  and  it  is  essential  that  other  means  are  used  to  establish  safe  use    of  
the machine. 

 

This  system  must  never  be  used,  under  any  circumstances,  as  a  substitute  for  the good 
judgment  of  a  crane  operator  when  carrying  out  approved  crane‐operating  procedures. 
Responsibility  for  the  safe  operation  of  the  crane  lies  with  the  crane  operator.  The 
indicator  equipment  will  not  necessarily  prevent  crane  damage  due  to  overloading  and 
related causes if not set properly.
