Refer to Figures 1 and 2 on pages 6 and 8 for System Layouts on lattice cranes. Refer to Figure 3
on page 9 for the System Layout on hydraulic cranes.
The LALT™1151 and 1151L Systems are designed to aid in preventing Overload and/or a Two-Block
condition. These Systems provide visual and audible alarms as well as operator-settable alarms.
Boom movements (hoist up, boom down, extend out) are halted when a Two-Block condition
develops. The LALT™ Systems can be used with a wide variety of hydraulic and lattice boom cranes.

CABLE STORAGE REEL – LATTICE
1. CLAMP THE CABLE STORAGE REEL TO THE LATTICE ON THE INSIDE OF THE BASE
SECTION OF THE BOOM.
NOTE: THE HOLE PATTERN ON THE BASE OF THE REEL WILL ACCOMMODATE
VARYING CLAMP SIZES.
2. TIGHTEN THE WING-NUT ON THE FRONT OF THE EXTENSION REEL. THE WING-NUT
CONTROLS THE RATE OF ROTATION OF THE REEL.
1. WITH THE BOOM IN A HORIZONTAL POSITION, MOUNT THE BOOM ANGLE SENSOR
VERTICALLY (CONNECTOR UP) WITH THE TOP OF THE SENSOR PARALLEL TO THE
CENTERLINE OF THE BOOM. TO FACILITATE ADJUSTMENT, PLACE A WASHER ON THE
SLOTTED HOLE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SENSOR. MOUNT THE SENSOR USING 1/4"
BOLTS OR STUDS.
2. FILL THE MALE CONNECTOR ON THE ANGLE SENSOR WITH SILICON GREASE.
CONNECT THIS CONNECTOR TO THE ANGLE SENSOR CABLE.
3. ROUTE THE CABLE ALONG THE LOWER EDGE OF THE BOOM. MAKE A LOOP IN FRONT
OF OR BEHIND THE BOOM PIVOT, ENSURING THAT THE CABLE DOES NOT STRETCH,
PINCH, OR ABRADE WHEN THE BOOM IS AT A HIGH OR LOW ANGLE.
4. INSTALL CABLE CLAMPS EVERY TWO TO THREE FEET ALONG THE BOOM.

THE EXTENSION REEL ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLY – HYDRAULIC
Refer to Figure 5 on page 12. (When upgrading older Greer Systems, turn to page 15.
The Extension Reel has 130 ft of shielded 2-wire cable, which terminates in a 3-pin
connector. This cable cannot be shortened to accommodate varying boom lengths.
2. SELECT A MOUNTING PLACE FOR THE EXTENSION REEL ON THE CAB-SIDE OF THE
NON-TELESCOPING BASE SECTION OF THE BOOM. POSITION SHOULD BE PARALLEL
TO THE BOOM AND FAR ENOUGH FORWARD TO AVOID OBSTRUCTION, E.G., THE
CRANE CAB.
3. MOUNT THE EXTENSION REEL IN RELATION TO THE TIE-OFF POST. (SEE STEP #7
BELOW AND FIGURE 5.)
NOTE: USE 3/8" DIAMETER BOLTS WELDED TO THE BOOM. IF THE BOOM IS NOT BOX
SHAPED, LONGER BOLTS ARE REQUIRED ON THE TOP OR BOTTOM TO ENSURE THAT
THE REEL REMAINS VERTICAL.
4. REMOVE THE FOUR ¼" - 20 TRUSS HEAD SCREWS SECURING THE COVER OF THE
EXTENSION REEL. REMOVE COVER AND SET SCREWS ASIDE.
5. REMOVE THE NYLON CORDS, BLOCKS, AND PACKING USED TO LOCK THE EXTENSION
REEL DURING SHIPMENT.
6. UNCOIL THE CABLE AHEAD OF THE CABLE CLAMP, BUT DO NOT REMOVE THE CABLE
CLAMP FROM THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE AT THIS TIME.
7. DETERMINE THE POSITION OF THE TIE-OFF POST ON THE BOOM HEAD. ENSURE THAT
WHEN THE CABLE IS CLAMPED TO THE TIE-OFF POST, ONE CABLE GUIDE (EYE BOLT)
AT THE END OF EACH BOOM SECTION WILL BE VISIBLE FROM THE TIE-OFF POST.
9. AFTER THE TIE-OFF POST COOLS, PULL THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE TO THE BOOM
HEAD AND TEMPORARILY ATTACH THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE TO THE TIE-OFF
POST. ENSURE THAT THERE IS SOME TENSION IN THE CABLE.
GREER COMPANY, 1918 E. Glenwood Place, Santa Ana, CA 92705 Tel: (714) 259-9702 Fax: (714) 259-7626 PNW310116 REV E 04/02/01

10. INSTALL THE GUIDES, FORMING A STRAIGHT LINE FROM THE EXTENSION REEL TO
THE TIE-OFF POST. ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF EACH GUIDE SO THAT THE CABLE WILL
RUN THROUGH THE CENTER OF THE GUIDE HOLE. SMALL SQUARE WELD-TABS AND
JAM NUTS ARE PROVIDED.
11. WITH THE MAIN BOOM FULLY RETRACTED, GRIP THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE FIRMLY
AND REMOVE THE CABLE FROM THE TIE-OFF POST. SLOWLY REWIND THE EXTENSION
REEL CABLE ONTO THE EXTENSION REEL TO THE POINT OF NO TENSION.
12. CONTINUE TO REWIND THE EXTENSION REEL BY HAND UNTIL THE DISTANCE
BETWEEN THE BOOM HEAD AND THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE CONNECTOR IS
APPROXIMATELY 12 FT.
13. PULL THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE TOWARD THE BOOM HEAD THREADING IT
THROUGH THE CABLE GUIDES.
14. SECURE THE CABLE TO THE TIE-OFF POST LEAVING 3 FT OF CABLE BEYOND THE
BOOM HEAD TIE-OFF POST FOR CONNECTION TO THE ANTI TWO-BLOCK SWITCH.
a) MANUALLY TURN THE LARGE GEAR, LOCATED ON THE "TRIANGLE PLATE" INSIDE
THE EXTENSION REEL, FULLY COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
16. REPLACE THE COVER ON THE EXTENSION REEL AND SECURE IT WITH THE FOUR
¼" - 20 TRUSS HEAD SCREWS.
17. CAREFULLY ROUTE THE SIGNAL CABLE FROM THE EXTENSION REEL TO THE
COMPUTER BEHIND THE BOOM PIVOT SO THAT LOWERING THE BOOM DOES NOT
STRETCH, PINCH, OR ABRADE THE SIGNAL CABLE. SMALL SQUARE WELD-BLOCKS
AND CABLE CLAMPS ARE PROVIDED. ENSURE THAT THE CABLE IS CAREFULLY
SECURED TO THE PATH.

CABLE CLAMPS. ENSURE THAT THE CABLE FROM THE ANGLE SENSOR
DOES NOT INTERFERE WITH THE EXTENSION REEL CABLE OR WITH THE EXTENSION
REEL ITSELF.
CAREFULLY FOLLOW THE STEPS OUTLINED BELOW IN THE ORDER SHOWN. REFER TO
FIGURE 6 ON PAGE 16.
WARNING:
WARNING IF THE FOLLOWING STEPS ARE NOT CARRIED OUT, THE 1 AMP FUSE INSIDE
THE METER WILL BLOW UP AS SOON AS THE SYSTEM IS TURNED ON.

b. MOVE THE BLACK WIRES FROM THE MOUNTING SCREWS ON THE TOP AND
BOTTOM ROWS TO TERMINAL #6.
a. REMOVE THE TWO SCREWS THAT ANCHOR THE CABLE ON THE EXTENSION
REEL TERMINAL BLOCK. REPLACE THESE SCREWS WITH #4-40 X 1/4" SCREWS
ONLY (USE OF LONGER SCREWS WILL CAUSE A SHORT TO GROUND).
