1.1.1 Validity
These operating instructions only apply to the truck crane with the works
number that is on the cover sheet of these operating instructions.
This truck crane has been equipped at the factory with an adjustable
Working Range Limiter by Deutsche GROVE GmbH.
These operating instructions only describe the menus and displays on the
Crane control display that are available with additional equipment with the
Working Range Limiter and therefore supplement the standard GMK 4075
operating instructions.
G
Danger of accident due to unsupervised situations!
The working range limiter only serves as an additional safety device. Brake
the crane movement in time before the obstacle, do not knowingly drive
into the shutdown area. You, the crane operator, continue to have the re-
sponsibility of supervision for the working area, so that you can react ac-
cordingly to the occurance of incidnents that are not electronically moni-
tored.

G
Danger of accidents due to limit values having been set too low
When entering the limit values, be aware that even after switching off the
motor movement can occur that would bring the load into the shutdown
area (e.g. due to load swing or bend of the boom). For this reason, enter the
limit value to the object with sufficient safety distance.
G
.
Danger of accident because the legally prescribed safety distance was not
observed!
Even when the working range limiter is switched on, always observe all
safety distances according to the country's legal regulations (e.g. con-
cerning electrical overhead cables).

Presentation of In the Maximum slewing angle entry submenu, the entered slewing angles A
slewing angles and B are presented pictorially in the Limited slewing angle display.
G
Risk of accident due to defectively set slewing angle.
Observe the definitions of slewing angles A and B when starting the
switching points.
– When the value for slewing angle A is adopted, the switching point must
always be located to the left next to the boom.
– When the value for slewing angle B is adopted, the switching point must
always be located to the right next to the boom.
If you swap the values for slewing angles A and B, the switching points are
then located within the permissible slewing range.

Entering the In the Maximum slewing angle entry submenu, you can enter the values for
slewing angle slewing angles A and B individually one after the other.

When the values for slewing angles A and B are known, you can also enter

value; à Entering limiting values manually, p. 1 - 17.

The point is only displayed when it is within the maximum radius. If needed,
you could enlarge the maximum radius so that the point will be shown.
Therefore you have the entry options for the following objects:

G
Danger of accident due to erroneously set limit values!
If, during starting operations or after entering new limit values, you switch
on the monitoring, then make sure that the settings for the limit values are
correct. Start up the limit value slowly and check whether the movement
has been switched off at the right time.
If necessary, enter new values with a larger safety distance.
H
After switching on the monitoring, all of the driving gears' speeds are
limited to a maximum of 50 %. This is also valid for the driving gear where
higher values are set in the submenu Driving gear speeds. Limits under 50 %
continue to be active. A limit between 30 and 50 % is recommended for the
slewing gear speed.

G
Risk of accidents from overriding a shutdown.
Override the shutdown only if absolutely necessary and if you can clearly
observe the danger zone. Remember that, because of boom bending, the
overall height of the truck crane increases when putting down the load.
When you press the Override key-operated push button, shutdown of crane
movements listed in the table above is bypassed (switched off).
