1. General information
The Xuzhou Hirschmann load moment indicator (ab. LMI) HC4900 has been designed
to provide the crane operator with the effective information required to enable the
machine to be used within its design parameters.
Using various sensing devices, the load moment indicator monitors crane’s various
work functions and provide the operator with a continuous reading of the crane’s
capacity. The readings continuously change as the crane executes different work.
The LMI provides the operator with information regarding the length and angle of the
boom, tip height, working radius, rated load and the total calculated weight being
lifted by the crane.
If no permitted conditions are approached, the HC4900 Load Moment Indicator will
warn the operator by sounding an audible alarm, lighting a warning light and locking
out those functions that may aggravate the crane’s condition.

2. Warnings
The LMI is an operational aid which warns crane operator of approaching overload
conditions and also warns of over-hoist conditions which could cause damage to
equipment and personnel.
The device is not, and shall not be a substitute for good operator’s judgment,
experience and use of accepted safe crane operating procedures.
The responsibility for the safe operation of the crane shall remain with the crane
operator who shall ensure that all warnings and instructions supplied are fully
understood and observed.

Notice
If the program of LMI and the load chart is correct and the OM set correct,
the display content will help a lot for the operator. To prevent property damage or
serious bodily injury or death to personnel, ensure the LMI is properly
programmed before the LMI to be installed.

-4-
 User manual

Proper operation is dependent upon proper daily inspection and observations of the
operating instructions set forth in this manual.

3. System description
The HC4900 LMI system can be installed on various kinds of cranes to measure the
load moment and judge whether it is overload to protect the crane from dangerous
operation.
Because of the load moment value is not easy to measure and even to inspect by eyes,
it can result in the operator’s wrong judgment. While HC4900 system can monitor the
real-time status of crane operation that enables the operation to keep in safety ranges.
The HC4900 system can monitor the crane information such as boom length, boom
angle, max hoist height, working radius, rated capacity and actual load, etc. The LMI
calculated the load moment value from the force component’s measuring data. When
the operation exceed the allowed safety range the LMI will send warning signal to the
LCD Graphic screen and send control signal to the central unit to warn the operator to
stop the illegal operation.
The following chapters will describe the characteristics, functions, operation methods
and notices about HC4900 LMI.

8. Daily maintenance and adjustment method

Please maintain and adjust according to the following content. If you have any
problem please contact us.

8.1 Maintenance

1. Check all the cable connection of the system. Damaged cables shall to be replaced
immediately.
2. Check the insulating layer of the length sensor, A2B switch cable and the cable
guides. If the insulating layer or the wire inside damaged, you should replace them
immediately.
3. Inspection of the anti-two block switch as to easy running.。
4. Check the cable reel as to sufficient tight or not.
5. Check the pressure transducers at the luffing cylinder and the connection hoses as to
oil leakage.

8.2 Length sensor adjustment

When the displayed boom length is not correct (exceeds the permitted error range),
- 25 -
User manual

please adjust it:

Retract the boom to the basic boom condition and check the pre-stressing force of the
cable reel (cable must be tight) and then open the cover of the length/angle sensor and
turn the axle of the length potentiometer slowly ( as the arrow marks, increase follow
clockwise and decrease counter-clockwise) till the displayed value to be the same with
the actual length.

Length sensor adjustment（as the arrow show）

8.3 Angle sensor adjustment

The angle and length sensor are installed in the same housing.
First withdraw the lifting boom to basic length boom and the displaying boom length
shall be the same as the actual boom length while checking. Use the angle indicator to
measure when the actual angle is between 0°and 70°whether same as the displayed
value or not. Also could use a tape to measure the working radius if the displayed
value or radius is not the same with the actual value, you should adjust the angle
sensor. Please loosen the three bolts（as the arrow pointing）and then slowly turn the
angle sensor till the displayed value accord with the actual one. After that, please tight
the three bolts again.

8.4 Buzzing alarm

After start the system it displays without any malfunction or error code but the buzzer

keep sound alarm, in this case please check if any disconnection or water inside the

connection between length cable and A2B switch.

8.5 The cable of reel retract not smoothly

Sometimes when retract the boom it happens that the length cable cannot return to the

original position naturally or retract not smoothly. It is because of the coil-spring’s

pre-tight is too low or the length cable in the cable reel fall off.

Please pre-tighten the length cable several circles to solve the problem:

1. Retract the boom and put it on the rack

2. Draw back the tip of the cable from the tip of the boom and retract to the cable
reel
3. Pre-tight the cable reel 3 to 5 circles, to make the cable can be pulled out and
retracted smoothly (please pay attention that the cable shall be rotate together with

- 27 -
User manual

cable reel when rotate the cable reel).

4. Pull out the cable and fix it on the tip of the boom again

5. After pre-tight the cable reel the display of the boom length will be affected, so

at this moment please adjust the length sensor till the displayed value the same with

the actual length.

Notice
The operator shall be careful the above calibration. The crane
can only be operated under correct adjustment and confirmation
after adjustment.

9. Error information and malfunction solved method

In case of a system malfunction or fault operation, an error code to identify the error
source will be displayed on the LCD. The code numbers listed in the malfunction table
identify various malfunctions that might occur in the LMI system which may cause by
operating faults of the crane operator or by exceeding preset areas.
Following are the explanation of the OM, which will provide convenient for usage and
maintenance.
