Dear Customer,

We have gone to great lengths to provide the conditions for a long


service life of your FAUN crane.
High-grade coatings, multi-layer paint systems and high-performance
application procedures with a high process reliability characterize the
excellent visual appearance of our FAUN cranes. Service and upkeep
are indispensable to maintain this finish:

1. Paint takes some time to develop its maximum resistance. Thus,


please do not clean your crane with excessively hot water, nor
with excessive water pressure during the first 8 weeks. Avoid
steam-jet units.

2. When using the crane on construction sites, when loading it with


load take-up equipment and wooden planks, damage to the
paint is inevitable. Such damage will result in corrosion or rust
and must therefore be repaired in an expert fashion without de-
lay.

3. Damage may also be caused by stone impact during travel. This


also requires immediate action.

4. The paintwork is also vulnerable to weather conditions and thaw-


ing salt. Thus, regular cleaning of the crane and preservation of
connectors, welts and screw couplings is necessary.

Customer satisfaction is our aim!

1 How to use this Operating Manual

This Operating Manual provides vital information which is a prerequisite for working safely with the machine.
The chassis (undercarriage) and the superstructure are covered by separate sections.

This Operating Manual is intended primarily for the crane operator and for maintenance specialists. It must
be available to the operator and maintenance staff at all times. The Operating Manual must thus always be
kept within easy reach of the operator's workplace, i.e. in the driver's cab in the undercarriage, or in the
crane cab. The Operating Manual is an integral part of the vehicle.

Before putting your FAUN crane into operation, please study the Operating Manual thoroughly. Familiarize
yourself with Part B.0 "SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" and with Part E) "CRANE TESTING INSTRUCTIONS", as
well as with the instruction plates mounted on the machine, and their meaning. You must also be informed
about the arrangement, functions and direction of operation of all the controls before you start up the ma-
chine for the first time.

Whenever you work with the crane, be sure to observe the instructions laid down in this Operating Manual!

NOTE Axle loads exceeding 12 t are not admissible for travelling on public roads in the coun-
tries of the European Community, according to EC regulations. Regarding axle loads, a
distinction must be made moreover between the axle loads permitted by the road traffic
regulations and the technically admissible axle loads. When the technically admissible
axle loads are exceeded, a speed reduction is required, depending on the actual extent
by which the specified axle loads are exceeded. The notes regarding tire load ratings
and the maximum travelling speeds according to Part B0, item 1.1.1, must be complied
with.
The legal regulations in force in the country where the crane is to be registered must
be observed. To conform with the registration requirements valid in the countries of
use, it may be necessary to deviate from the standard equipment, and provide the
vehicle with certain optional equipment, which may result in a changed distribution of
the counterweights and different axle loads.

5.1 Explanation regarding a load chart

The following diagram is an example of a load chart regarding boom actuation and entry or selection of the
appropriate code number in the ASLI, given the desired telescoping states in question, and the working ra-
dius as a function of the boom length.
The load charts are classified in various categories, depending on the crane's working position. For each job,
the operator must select the table which is as close as possible to the actual working position. All load charts
contain specific code numbers which depend on the length of the boom or the boom extension and the tele-
scoping state in question. The appropriate code no. must be entered into the ASLI before crane work is
commenced.

The further instructions given in the "Notes referring to the load chart" must also be observed.

1 = Working radius (distance between the center of the ringgear and the center of the hook block or the load)
2 = Extent of counterweight with outriggers, swing and/or working range and the specified outrigger extension
width.
3 = Data for the actual boom length and boom angle
4 = Telescoping states as percentage values, after entry of the code no.
5 = Code numbers to be entered

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRIVING AND CRANE OPERATION

1 Requirements and conditions for vehicles used in public road


traffic.

The crane has been approved for use in public road-traffic, and has been registered by the competent,
authorized government agencies subject to the appropriate legal provisions.

According to an expertise issued by the German Technical Supervision Authority (TÜV), the following
conditions and requirements have to be satisfied to this effect:

• For the admissible axle loads, please refer to Part A) (Technical Data) of this Operating Manual.
• The boom must be positioned forward in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and be either completely
retracted, depending on the rig arrangement, or tele section I must be extended by approx. 300 mm (see
item B2-6.6.7), stowed and secured.
• The superstructure must be secured to prevent it from slewing, and the swing brake must be engaged.
• If a jib is provided, it must be folded laterally to the boom, and secured.
• The bottom block must be attached on the front bumper crossmember and secured, as described in the
Operating Manual. Any national regulations differing from those mentioned above must be taken into
consideration.
• Any additional bottom blocks transported with the machine must either be deposited in the bottom block
rests provided to this effect, or stowed on the chassis and secured appropriately. To this effect, refer also to
the admissible axle loads in part A) (Technical Data).
• A part of the counterweight - the weight of which depends on the machine model or the rig arrangement -
must be deposited in the counterweight rest on the chassis.
• Any counterweights and other items of equipment transported on auxiliary vehicles must be secured
adequately.
• The outriggers must be retracted completely and secured mechanically.
• The outrigger floats must be slipped into place and secured.
• The axle suspension must not be locked during on-road travel. The suspension system must be set to the
level required for "on-road travel" according to the Operating Manual.
• The differential locks must have been deactivated. The differential locks may only be engaged for off-road
use, if this should be indispensable; no curves should be taken when the locks are engaged.
• The 2nd axle drive**) (in case of 8x8 configuration) must have been deactivated.
• The mechanical steering lock between axles 3 and 4 must be engaged.

B0-1 Requirements and conditions for vehicles used in public road traffic.

cont'd.: 1 Requirements and conditions for vehicles used in public road traffic.

• Attachments and superstructure components must be secured so that they cannot slip or fall down.
• Objects which are not sufficiently secured must not be deposited on the platforms of the chassis and the
superstructure.
• The traffic regulations must be observed taking account of the admissible axle loads (refer to part A) and
gross vehicle weights (according to the expert opinions of the technical inspection agencies, the data given
in the vehicle title or the vehicle registration papers).
• The tires must be checked for the specified pressure.
• The brakes must be checked for proper working order immediately after starting. The steering and lighting
systems must also be checked.
• The parking brake must be engaged while the vehicle is parked. The parking brake in the superstructure
must always be engaged; it may only be released while "driving from the superstructure". If parking on
downhill slopes is inevitable, the wheels must be blocked using additional wheel chocks.
• Before entering curves, a lower gear must be selected in good time. Make sure that the gearbox is never
shifted to neutral before or while negotiating a curve, as in this case the engine speed would drop suddenly
to idling level, impairing the hydraulic assistance of the steering system, which would require increased
effort at the steering wheel.
• The boom head must be marked on both sides with red-and-white diagonal section bars; when the
machine is operated in the darkness, one additional type-approved bordering light directed sideways must
be located on both sides. National registration requirements may differ from those mentioned and must be
taken into consideration.
• According to § 41/14 StVZO (German Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards), at least 4 wheel chocks,
and at least 2 warning triangles and 2 portable warning lights pursuant to § 53a, section 1 StVZO, must
also be carried in the vehicle. National registration requirements may differ from those mentioned and must
be taken into consideration.
• The vehicle owner or his authorized representative must instruct the driver regarding his particular
obligations concerning operation of the vehicle, as required by traffic safety, and about the
requirements specified in the exception permit. The driver has to confirm this instruction in writing.
The vehicle owner must keep this confirmation for 2 years.

Moreover, the provisions of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (in Germany: StVZO) must be
complied with.

The instructions given in the following chapters are intended to help you prevent damage
and to increase the machine's availability by avoiding maintenance faults.

Particular attention should be paid to unusual sounds and occurrences during the first few operating hours.

Prerequisites of trouble-free operation are, apart from thorough application planning, an optimally
serviced crane and a well-trained crane operator.

1.1 Important instructions regarding the load ratings of tires depending on


the maximum travelling speeds and the stress to which the rims are
subject

• The axle loads of the crane carrier have to be observed in view of the legal regulations valid in the country
where the machine is to be registered.
• Regarding axle loads, a distinction must be made between the technically admissible axle loads and the
axle loads specified by the legislation of the country where the machine is to be registered.
• Axle loads exceeding 12 t are not admissible for travelling on public roads in the countries of the European
Community, according to EC regulations.

If a machine with an axle load exceeding 12 t is used on public roads, the vehicle
operating company bears sole responsibility.

• Increased wear, especially on the brake linings, must be expected.


• Driving with increased axle loads may result in a considerable increase of the stopping distance.
• Due to their technical definition, the rims used have only a limited service life.
• As the rims are important safety components of the crane, they must be checked at regular intervals,
and these inspections must be recorded.
Given normal operation of the crane, the normal service life to be expected of the rim is approx. 80,000 to
100,000 km.
• High, jerky strains, or e.g. driving with excessive axle loads, which exceed the basic design data, may
reduce the specified service life.
• Thus, it must be ensured that regular inspections of the rims, the frequency of which depends on the
vehicle's operating conditions, or checks for fissures in the critical areas, e.g. the welding seam between
the disc and the rim, are carried out.
• It is not admissible to repair any cracks by welding.

The vehicle operating company may only use rims approved by the vehicle
manufacturer.

2 Instructions for the crane operator

As the operator of the mobile crane, you have a number of responsibilities, i.e.:

• You should ensure that the mobile crane is always in a safe operating and road condition.

Recurrent inspections according to VBG 9, § 26 (1) (2)

Cranes must be inspected as required by the application conditions and the operating circum-
stances, at least however once per year by a person disposing of special knowledge about cranes
(1), or by an expert (2) at least every four years.
These inspections must be carried out at the instigation of the crane operating company.

• You are entitled to refuse to work in contravention of the regulations.


• Inform your principal about all incidents. He must decide which steps are to be taken.
• You must ask unauthorized persons to leave your vehicle and its working range.
• If there is a risk to persons or equipment, you must take all the steps you consider appropriate to eliminate
the risk.
• You must not perform any operations contrary to the regulations, such as diagonal pulling of loads,
dragging of loads and working under troughs, reservoirs or equipment that is inclined but not secured.

Moreover, we would like to refer to the Regulations for the Prevention of Accidents (German: UVV) for
cranes (VBG 9a) and for winches, hoisting and towing equipment (VBG 8) of the Professional
Association, and the "acknowledged" rules of technology, the notices in DIN 15020 (pages 1 and 2) , to
the Road Traffic Regulations (in Germany: STVO) and the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (in
Germany: StVZO).

The provisions of the UVV mentioned in this Operating Manual are valid within the Federal Republic of
Germany.

In other countries, the national legal regulations must be complied with.

B0-2 Instructions for the crane operator

2.1 Applications planning

The basis of trouble-free operation is thorough planning of the application.


In good time before the operator drives the machine to the site of operation, he must obtain or provide
himself with all the data and documents required for the work as a whole, especially as regards:

• preparation of a precise time schedule;


• the type of crane operation in question;
• the weight and the size of the load to be lifted;
• the required work radius and lifting height;
• the stability of the ground at the site of crane installation;
• the local conditions and restrictions at the site of crane installation, if any;
• finding out approach roads the vehicle can use given its length, width, height, and its total weight, and
taking account of the admissible carrying capacity of bridges, headroom of underpasses and road widths.
• electrical overhead lines and their voltage.
• If necessary, request a police escort and obtain official permits.
• The applicable travel or exception permits.
• The appropriate paragraphs of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (in Germany: StVZO) and Road
Traffic Regulations (in Germany: StVO) of the country where the machine is to be registered, must be
observed.
• Admissible limits for admissible axle loads and gross vehicle weights.

The crane equipment required for execution of the planned application must be prepared in accordance with
the information on hand, especially:

• Load hooks or bottom blocks.


• Lattice-type fly jib.
• Counterweights,
• load securing ropes, chain suspension devices, crossbeams and other, similar attachments,
• supporting plates for the ground, if necessary,
• an auxiliary vehicle for transport, if necessary.

DANGER If the crane operator is not given all the data he requires, the work planned at the site
of application may prove to be impossible; this may even force him to improvise. This
in turn increases the risk of accidents.

2/24 2003-01
Instructions for the crane operator B0-2

2.2 Steps to be taken before crane operation

• The ground conditions on the site of crane operation should be checked with regard to stability (load-bearing
capacity); if necessary, the ground should be reinforced with sheet metal plates.
• The driveways to be used by the vehicle on the site should be cleaned; any unevenness should be
eliminated.
• The lifting capacities indicated in the load charts are only valid for the vehicle standing on level ground
(crane standing free on wheels), or for the crane aligned horizontally and stabilized by outriggers.
• The crane must be supported by outriggers as specified; the axle suspension must be blocked before
outrigger operation, according to the Operating Manual.
• All outrigger beams must be extended completely and locked mechanically. If the outrigger beams are not
extended completely, this reduces the lifting capacity.
• The outrigger cylinders must be supported with robust materials (e.g. timbers), and centered on these
large-size supports. Deals or piles of bricks are not suitable.
• The outrigger cylinders must not be extended to their end positions. Wooden planks should be placed
underneath the outriggers, leaving a clearance of approx. 10 to 15 mm in the cylinders.
• The vehicle must be aligned horizontally (watch spirit levels).
• The tires must be lifted clear off the ground, if this is specified in the Operating Manual.
• The tires must be checked for the specified inflating pressure, if driving with a load fixed to the boom is
admissible according to the Operating Manual or the Notes referring to the load charts.
• Before starting to work with the crane, check the vehicle's hydraulic system and all controls and gauges for
proper working order.
• The shortest possible boom length and work radius must be used on all accounts. The work radius is the
distance between the center of the ringgear and the center of the bottom block or the load.
• The size and the weight of the load to be lifted must be known.
• The bottom block, the load securing ropes, the crossbeam etc. are parts of the load and must be deducted
from the lifting capacities in question.
• The safety equipment installed in the machine must be checked for precision and proper working order. If
the operating staff is not absolutely sure about its function or reliability (100 %), crane work must not be
started.

B0-2 Instructions for the crane operator

2.2.1 Checking the ground quality

A prerequisite for safe crane operation is the utilisation of the machine on solid ground with a sufficient load
bearing capacity. The choice of the appropriate site of installation for the crane is also decisive for correct
execution of the planned work.

The site of installation must be chosen in such a way, that:


- the prevailing ground quality is sufficient to withstand the loads occurring during the work;
- the outriggers can be extended according to the value specified in the load chart.
- there are no obstacles in the slewing range of the counterweight or of the superstructure.
- the work can be effected with a minimum working radius.

DANGER To ensure safe crane operation, it is essential for the crane to be installed on
sufficiently solid ground. If ground stability is inadequate, there is an
enhanced risk of accidents.

When the crane is supported by outriggers during work, huge forces are directed onto the ground via the
outriggers. In specific cases, almost the whole weight of the crane plus the load may be directed onto the
ground via a single outrigger.

The maximum supporting forces which may occur while the loads specified in the load chart are slewed
within a working range of 360° have been specified in the supporting forces charts in the Operating Manual.

Accordingly, the corresponding wheel loads for work with the crane on wheels are specified in the wheel load
charts of the Operating Manual.

For information regarding specific ground pressures, please refer to the German DIN standard 1054
"Admissible loads acting on the construction site". The following table shows an excerpt of the
admissible ground pressures.

Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to check the load-bearing capacity and the stability of the
ground where the crane is to be installed by means of appropriate testing methods (if necessary, have soil
surveys made using a piling ring). The outrigger floats may have to be provided with suitably sized
supporting material, depending on the soil's stability.

The prevailing maximum specific ground pressure can be computed on the basis of the crane's maximum
supporting force (see supporting forces chart) divided by the surface area of the outrigger float.

Supporting force
Ground = -----------------------------------------------
pressure Outrigger float surface area

The calculated ground pressure must by no means exceed the ground pressure which is admissible for the
ground in question.

The required minimum supporting surface can be computed on the basis of the crane's supporting forces
(see supporting forces chart), divided by the admissible load bearing capacity of the ground.

Required Supporting force


supporting = -----------------------------------------------
surface admissible load bearing capacity

The existing supporting surface must by no means be less than the calculated minimum supporting surface.

DANGER No thin boards, lime sand brick or similar material may be used as supports for the
outrigger floats.
Make sure that only sufficiently rugged material, e.g. sufficiently thick planks, are
used.
Moreover, it is very important to place the outrigger floats centrally on their supports,
for even distribution of pressure on the support.

Non-compliance signifies an
enhanced risk of accidents.

2.2.3 Distance of the crane from ditches, slopes and excavations

Once the site of installation of the crane has been chosen, it must be ensured that the crane is not installed
too close to ditches, slopes or excavations.

There is a risk that the edge of the slope or the excavation might slip away under the load of the outriggers,
causing the crane to tip over.

Depending on the prevailing type of soil, a sufficient safety clearance must be provided between the
outriggers and the edge of the excavation; this safety clearance is measured from the base of the
excavation.

DANGER In case of loose or back-filled soil (gradient of slope approx. 30°),


the safety clearance = twice the depth of excavation ( A = 2 x T )

In case of natural soil which is not loose (slope gradient approx.45°),


the safety clearance = once the depth of excavation ( A = 1 x T )

If these minimum safety clearances cannot be guaranteed, the edge of the slope or
the excavation must be supported,
as otherwise there is an
enhanced risk of accidents.

2.3 Supporting the crane by outriggers

It is extremely important that the outriggers are extended according to the selected load chart and to
the extension width specified there, and that the load is divided up between all outriggers.

Make sure that the crane's actual supporting base does not fall short of the extension width specified in the
selected load chart.

Extension widths other than those specified in the load charts are not admissible, as the transmission of
transverse forces into the outriggers is only possible at appropriately constructed points defined by design.

DANGER Extension widths other than those specified in the load charts are not admissible.
The outrigger beams must be locked mechanically in their appropriate positions by
insertion of locking pins, so that they cannot slip.
If these instructions are not observed, there is an
enhanced risk of accidents.

The operator must extend the outrigger beams according to the selected load chart not only on the load side
of the crane, but also on the opposite side of the load. If the outrigger beams on the opposite side of the load
are not extended, there will be an increased risk of accidents for the following reasons:

DANGER Contrary to expectation, it might become necessary to swing the load over the other
side, where the outrigger beams are not extended.
This may cause the crane to tip over.

The load suspended on the hook deforms and consequently stresses the boom. If the
winch rope or a load securing rope breaks under such circumstances, or if the load
falls out of the load securing ropes, the crane would suddenly be discharged from its
load and the boom would bounce up.
This may cause the crane to tip over backwards.

B0-2 Instructions for the crane operator

2.3 Supporting the crane by outriggers (cont'd.)

Besides the correct and safe supporting of all outrigger


floats and besides complying with the correct extension
width, the horizontal alignment of the crane's plane of
rotation is extremely important for safe crane operation.

In the case of a crane with a boom of 60 m, which is


placed at an inclination angle of 5°, the working radius
is increased by approx. 5 m ("a").

DANGER If the crane is not aligned horizon-


tally and if the boom is placed at
right angles to the slope, pressure
is exerted on the boom transverse
to the main loading direction when
the load is picked up, so that it may
even kink under certain
circumstances.

DANGER If the crane is not aligned horizontally and the boom is slewed towards the slope, this
increases the working radius which may cause the crane to tip over under certain
circumstances.
A crane which is not aligned horizontally implies an
enhanced risk of accidents.

2.4 Counterweight

The size of the counterweight required is determined by the working radius required for the crane work in
question, and by the weight of the load to be lifted. The counterweight has to be mounted onto the crane in
accordance with the counterweight data specified in the load chart which is required for the crane work in
question.

Attention None of the counterweight units belonging to the machine, which can be removed and
unscrewed, may be replaced by counterweight units of other machines.

DANGER If the crane is not equipped with the counterweight specified in the load chart, there is
a
risk of its overturning, i.e. a risk of accidents.

2.5 Hoist winch and reeving of the winch rope

The lifting capacity of a crane depends on the traction


force of the hoist winch and on the selected number of
rope falls. When the work is effected with "direct" rope
arrangement (= rope fall), the crane can only lift the
weight which can be pulled by the hoist winch.

If the load to be lifted exceeds the traction force of the


hoist winch, the winch rope must be reeved between
the rope pulleys in the boom head and the pulleys in the
hook block as many times as necessary, according to
the principle of lifting tackle.

For rope reeving, please observe the "Notes referring to


the load charts" and the specifications of the Operating
Manual.

arrangement with arrangement with


a single rope fall four rope falls

DANGER If the maximum admissible traction force of the hoist winch is exceeded, there is an
increased risk of accidents as the winch rope may break, or as the planetary gears or
the hydraulic motor of the hoist winch may be damaged.

NOTE The annually consumed portion of the theoretical service life of the winch must be
determined according to the amendment and the supplement to the regulation for the
prevention of accidents "VBG 8, Winches, Hoisting and Towing Equipment". If the
theoretical service life of the winch has elapsed, a general overhaul of the winch is
necessary. After 10 years, a general overhaul of the winch must be effected on all
accounts (refer also to part E "Crane Testing Instructions").

2.6 Taking account of the wind velocities

The maximum wind velocities at which crane operation is admissible stated in the load charts must be
adhered to.

When the wind velocities exceed the specified values, crane work must be stopped and the boom must be
retracted or deposited.

DANGER If inadmissibly high wind velocities are to be expected in view of the prevailing
weather conditions, before he starts working with the crane, the crane operator
has to ascertain with the competent meteorological authority the wind velocities
which may occur.
Crane work must not be performed if inadmissibly high wind velocities are to
be expected.
If the admissible wind velocity limits are not observed, there is an
enhanced risk of accidents.

2.6 Taking account of the wind velocities (cont'd.)

The following table contains a few reference values enabling the assessment of the prevailing wind velocities.

Wind intensity Wind velocity Action of the wind

4 moderate breeze 5.5-7.9 20-28 Lifts dust and loose sheets of paper, moves twigs
and thin boughs.
5 fresh breeze 8.0-10.7 29-38 Small broadleaf trees begin to wave to and fro. White
crests appear on lakes.
6 strong breeze 10.8-13.8 39-49 Thick boughs move; telegraph lines whistle;
umbrellas can be used only with difficulty.
7 strong wind 13.9-17.1 50-61 Entire trees in motion; tangible resistance felt when
walking against the wind.
8 gale 17.2-20.7 62-74 Tears boughs from trees, walking outdoors is
extremely difficult.
9 gale-force wind 20.8-24.4 75-88 Minor damage to houses (chimney heads and roof
tiles are blown off).
10 severe gale 24.5-28.4 89-102 Uproots trees; severe damage to houses.
11 light hurricane 28.5-32.6 103-117 Extended storm damage in places (occurs very rarely
inland).
12 hurricane 32.7-36.9 118-133 Extremely severe devastation.

DANGER When a thunderstorm is brewing, crane work must be stopped immediately, and the
boom must be retracted!

2.6.1 Influence of and attention to the action of wind

In general, crane operation is only admissible at wind velocities which do not exceed the rating "v" indicated
in the "Notes referring to the load charts". In this context, the prevailing load wind area AWvorh must not
exceed the load wind area AWzul considered in the calculation. The load wind area AWzul which has been
considered in the calculation, is specified in diagram 2 "Load wind area". If the load wind area is greater than
that which has been considered in the calculation, crane work is only admissible at an accordingly reduced
wind velocity.
This reduced wind velocity is specified in diagram 1 "Dynamic pressure" (see the following example):

0095_EN_FA043_B0_02_00_00
10/24 2003-01
Instructions for the crane operator B0-2

2.6.1 Influence of and attention to the action of wind (cont'd.)

DANGER Before the crane operator starts any crane work, he has to obtain information about
the wind velocities which must be expected; if necessary, he may have to check the
wind velocities which may occur with the competent meteorological authority. Crane
work must not be performed if inadmissibly high wind velocities are to be expected.
The maximum admissible wind velocities specified in the "Notes referring to the load
charts" must not be exceeded on any account; even if the prevailing load wind area is
smaller than that which has been considered in the calculation.

Example for the determination of the reduced wind velocity

Admissible wind velocity for the crane, e.g. v = 12 m/s (from "Notes referring to the load charts".
Weight of the load to be lifted G = 20 t
Prevailing wind area of the load to be lifted: AWvorh = 40 m2

1. According to diagram 1 "Dynamic pressure", at a wind velocity of 12 m/s (= 43.2 k.p.h.), the resulting
dynamic pressure amounts to 88 N/m2.

2. According to diagram 2, an admissible load wind area of AWZUl = 23 m2 results for the load to be
lifted.

Formula for calculation

Fw = q x Awzul

2024N = 88 N/m2 x 23 m2

Thus, a load of 20 t with an admissible load wind area Awzul = 23 m2 is subject to a wind force of Fw = 2024
N.

Formula for calculation

Fw
q = -----
Awvorh

50.6 N/m2 = 2024 N/m2 /40 m2

In case of the prevailing load wind area Aw vorh = 40 m2 , at the calculated wind force Fw, the maximum
admissible dynamic pressure is q = 50.6 N/m2.

3. Thus, according to diagram 1 "Dynamic pressure", at a dynamic pressure of q = 50.6 N/m2, the
maximum admissible wind velocity of Vred = 9 m/s ( = 32.4 k.p.h. ).

Awvorh Prevailing wind area of the load to be lifted in m2


Awzul admissible load wind area in m2
Fw Prevailing wind force acting on the load to be lifted, in N
q Dynamic pressure in N/m2

2.7 Hand signals recommended for communication between the crane


operator and his assistant

During all intended crane movements (with or without load), the crane operator must always have the load or
the load lifting device in his field of vision. Loads fixed by hand may only be moved by the crane operator
after he has received a corresponding signal from the person fixing the load or from another responsible
person who has been determined in advance.
If the crane operator's field of vision is impaired by obstacles, he may only move the crane or the load with
the help of an assistant determined in advance, who gives him appropriate instructions.
The instructions can be given using radio equipment or hand signals. However, clear communication free
from misunderstandings must always be ensured between the assistant giving the instructions and the crane
operator.

DANGER Hand signals and special verbal expressions must be agreed between the crane
operator and his assistant, and observed precisely.
Any mistakes regarding the interpretation of the hand signals or verbal expressions
may result in accidents.
The persons giving the hand signals must always be placed so that he can see the
crane operator, and keep at a safe distance from the hook or the load.

The following hand signals are recommended for the working movements:

Explanation of the hand signals

2.8 Work in the vicinity of electrical overhead lines

When crane work is performed near electrical overhead lines, serious accidents may occur if the crane
moves the boom or the load too close to, or even touches, the overhead line.

In case of voltages below 1000 V, only direct contact with the overhead line will in general involve a risk;
however, at voltages over 1000 V, even an indirect approach of the overhead line may cause a current
sparkover and consequently accidents.

Before commencing work, the rated voltages of any overhead lines in the working area must be enquired at
the responsible power supply company.

If the possibility exists, the overhead line must either be switched off, or covers or barriers must be provided
for the danger zone.

However, both of these measures may only be performed by well-trained electricians or by employees of the
responsible power supply company.

If it is not possible to perform these measures, a sufficient safety clearance from the live lines must be kept
on all accounts. The appropriate safety clearances are indicated in the following table.

According to the German VDE directive 0105, the following safety clearances from live lines must be
observed even in the most unfavourable crane positions, and taking account of possible oscillations of the
overhead line which may be due to the action of wind.

Nominal voltage Minimum clearance to


be observed
up to 1000 V ( 1 kV ) 1m
over 1000 V up to 110,000 V ( over 1 kV up to 110 kV ) 3m
over 110,000 V up to 220,000 V ( over 110 kV up to 220 kV ) 4m
over 220.000 V up to 380.000 V ( over 220 kV up to 380 kV ) 5m
if nominal voltage is not known 5m

Work near overhead lines should only be performed with the help of an assistant. The safety clearances and
the hand signals used for communication must be determined together with the assistant. The assistant must
have free vision on the entire working area, and be in constant eye contact with the crane operator.

DANGER Crane work in the vicinity of live overhead lines requires extra care.
The minimum safety clearances specified above must be observed on all accounts, as
reduced clearances would entail a considerable risk of accidents.

DANGER When a thunderstorm is brewing, crane work must be stopped immediately, and the
boom must be retracted!
There is a risk of lightning stroke!

B0-2 Instructions for the crane operator

2.9 How to behave in case of sparkover (if the crane has touched the power
line)

If an overhead line has been touched or a current sparkover has occurred in spite of all precautions,
please observe the following instructions:

• Keep calm and do not leave the crane cabin.


• Warn persons outside about the danger; instruct them not to approach or touch the crane.
• Remove the crane from the danger zone by driving away or by slewing or adjusting the boom.
• Request persons outside of the danger zone to shut off the power supply.
• If it is indispensable to leave the crane cab, never touch the crane and the ground at the same time. Do not
climb down, but jump to the ground.
• Leave the crane area, making small steps.

2.9.1 Inspection measures required after an electric shock or a lightning stroke

DANGER After an electric shock or a lightning stroke, the electrical and electronic components
must be checked for proper working order. The ball-bearing slewing device must be
checked for damage and smooth motion.

2.10 Grounding the crane and the load

During crane work, the crane and the load might be charged electrically under certain circumstances. This
may occur, e.g., during work near powerful radio transmitters or RF change-over stations.
The crane may be electrified especially if the crane's outrigger floats are supported with insulating material
(e.g. squared timbers).
The load may also be electrified (e.g. in case of hoisting tackles of non-conducting materials, or if plastic
rope sheaves are used on the crane).
Thus, it may be necessary to ground the crane and the load. To this effect, the part to be grounded (crane or
load) must be connected to the soil in an electrically conductive fashion.

Grounding the crane:

- Use a ground cable with a sufficient cross section (> 16 mm2).

- To save the ball-bearing slewing device, fasten one end of the


ground cable directly to the superstructure or the boom using a
screw clamp or a vise-grip wrench (do not fasten to screwed-down
or bolted components).

- Fasten the other end of the ground cable to a metal bar stuck into
the soil.

ATTENTION When slewing the crane, make sure the ground


cable can move without obstruction. The
ground cable must not be crushed or torn apart.

NOTE The ground cable and the ground spike are available as an assembly, including the
connectors and the fastening point on the vehicle (optional equipment).

Grounding the load:

- Use a ground cable with a sufficient cross section (> 16 mm2).


- Fasten one end of the ground cable to a metal bar stuck into the soil.
- Fasten the other end of the ground cable to a metal bar with insulated handle.
- Hold the metal bar against the load (only grasp at the insulated handle).

DANGER During grounding work, the operator must wear safety equipment, e.g. special shoes,
gloves.

NOTE When work is effected in the radius of action of RF transmitters, the transmitter company
must be contacted. The grounded crane may give rise to interferences.

DANGER When a thunderstorm is brewing, crane work must be stopped immediately, and the
boom must be retracted!
There is a risk of lightning stroke!

B0-2 Instructions for the crane operator

2.11 Work in the vicinity of supply lines

DANGER Particular caution is required in the area of exposed supply lines. Damage to
such lines and any resulting leakage may have imprevisible consequences.

Before crane work begins, it must be ensured which fluids are transported in the supply lines. To this effect,
the operating company involved must definitely be contacted.
If the lines contain substances which imply a hazard to the environment or to health, all the necessary safety
measures must be stipulated in cooperation with the operating company.
Such work should only be performed with the help of assistants. If necessary, the assistant must also be
familiar with all the safety precautions. Before work begins, hand signals must be defined for communication.
The assistant must have free vision on the entire working area, and be in constant eye contact with the crane
operator.

2.12 Crane work with a load

Before the crane operator starts to work with the crane, he has to verify that the operational reliability of his
crane is ensured.
All safety devices, e.g. brakes, hoist limit switches, winch limit switches, automatic safe load indicator (ASLI)
etc. must be in an operationally reliable condition.

The crane operator has to observe the following items:

• Before the crane operator starts crane work, he has to inform himself about the dimensions and the weight
of the load.

• The lifting capacities specified in the load chart have to be observed and must not be exceeded.

• The crane must be placed horizontally on solid ground with the extension width specified in the load chart,
and with an appropriate counterweight.

• The load moment limiter must be adjusted correctly according to the crane's rig arrangement.

• The load fixing, lifting and carrying devices must be suitable for the load to be lifted, and feature a sufficient
lifting capacity.

• The load securing, lifting and carrying devices are part of the load to be lifted and must be deducted from
the lifting capacities specified in the load chart.

Example for the determination of the actual payload of the crane:

Admissible lifting capacity according to the load chart (gross load) 11.100t
Dead weight of the load securing ropes 0.050t
Dead weight of the crossbeam 0.125t
Proper weight of the hook block 0.350t

Actual payload of the crane (net load) 10.575t

In this case, the weight of the load to be lifted must not exceed the calculated payload of the crane,
which amounts to 10,575 t.

2.13 Notes regarding work with two cranes

Sometimes two cranes may be required to move bigger and considerably heavy loads.

DANGER Executing such work requires a high degree of operator experience and
attention, as otherwise there is a considerable
Risk of accidents!

When working with two cranes, take note of the following instructions:

• Work should be effected, as far as possible, with two identical cranes (e.g. telescopic cranes with the same
capacity rating).
• The load must be picked up and distributed so that the maximum lifting capacity of the crane is not
exceeded. In the case of cranes with different capacity ratings, the lifting capacity of the smaller (less
powerful) crane is decisive.
• It must be ensured that the load does not exceed 2/3 of the total lifting capacity of the two cranes.
• The winch ropes must always be suspended vertically; neither of the cranes must pull to the side.
• Before commencing work, the crane operators must determine a common approach. They must agree on
hand signals for communication.
• Work may only be performed with the help of an assistant. One assistant should be charged with guiding
the two cranes and giving signals for both of them. The assistant must also be informed about the work
approach and the hand signals. Moreover, he should be able to see the entire working range and be in
constant eye contact with the crane operators.

2.14 Instructions for crane operation

• The crane is ready to operate at ambient temperatures in the range from -25°C to +40°C.
• During crane operation, the gearshift lever must be set to neutral.
• The hydraulic axle suspension must be locked for crane operation according to the operating manual
before outrigger actuation and before driving the crane in full rig arrangement on construction sites.
• Loads may only be lifted after persons have left the danger zone.
• For moving the crane with a load and for work free on wheels, see Notes referring to the Load Charts, and
item B2-7.
• For moving the crane in full rig arrangement on construction sites, see Notes referring to the Load Charts,
and item B2-7.
• The maximum admissible wind velocity and load wind area according to the load chart must not be
exceeded.
• Check that the ground is completely level and sufficiently resistant.
• Construction sites must be sufficiently illuminated for work at night.
The crane's working floodlights alone might not be sufficient for this purpose. In this case, the construction
site must be illuminated sufficiently by additional light sources, independently of the crane lighting
equipment.
• To enhance the crane operator's safety, appropriate safety equipment must be used for crane work.
• As long as the engine is running and/or a load is suspended freely, the operator must not leave the crane
cabin.
• Before the operator leaves the superstructure cabin, he must place the load on the ground; the parking
brake must be in braking position, the engine must be stopped and the ignition key removed.

B0-2 Instructions for the crane operator

2.15 Crane application in accordance with the intended use

Crane application in accordance with the intended use is operation as an assembly crane, and
consequently, lifting and transporting of loads.
The machine has been designed and built only for operation in areas where there is no risk of explosion.

2.16 Crane application not in accordance with the intended use

Crane application not in accordance to the intended use includes piling, vibrating and clamshell operation,
and the use as a loading and unloading crane.

2.17 Potential causes of accidents

The majority of the damage caused during operation of automotive cranes is due to operating errors,
whereas the minority is due to inadequate maintenance of the machine.

Consequently, to avoid accidents, it is important for the crane operator to be thoroughly trained in the
operation, application and maintenance of the crane.

The crane operator must be able to recognize any risks endangering the health and safety of himself and
other people, and to take the appropriate measures to avoid such risks.

2.17.1 Causes for driving faults

• Overspeed of engine and/or gearbox when driving on downward gradients.


• The gearbox has not been shifted down in time before the vehicle enters a curve. Make sure that the
gearbox is never shifted to neutral before or while negotiating a curve, as in this case the engine speed
would drop suddenly to idling level, thus impairing the hydraulic assistance of the steering system, which
would require increased effort at the steering wheel.
• The differential locks are not disengaged during on-road travel.
• The parking brake is not applied when the vehicle is parked; no additional wheel chocks are used when the
machine is parked on downward gradients.
• Loose items have been left on the machine; accessories are not secured and can fall off.
• Due to an insufficient passage clearance, the machine collides with bridges and roofs.
• The admissible axle loads or the gross vehicle weight have been exceeded.

DANGER The machine's braking performance decreases to the same extent as the axle loads or
the gross vehicle weight have been exceeded beyond the admissible limits against
the admissible ratings. Thus, the entire brake system no longer satisfies the legal
provisions.

If these items are not observed, there is an


increased risk of accidents.

2.17.2 Causes for faults during crane operation

Such causes and faults may occur during crane operation for the following reasons:

• The crane is not mounted with the outrigger beams extended and secured as specified in the load chart;
• the outrigger floats are not supported with solid material, as required by the ground conditions;
• the outrigger floats are not placed centrally on their supports;
• the outrigger cylinders have been extended to their end position; in this case, wooden planks should be
placed underneath the outriggers, leaving a residual stroke of at least 10 to 15 mm in the cylinders.
• The crane is not aligned horizontally and the tires are not lifted off the ground as specified in the Operating
Manual;
• The crane is installed too close to the edge of slopes or excavations.
• The hydraulic axle suspension is not locked.
• Excessively fast driving with the crane in full rig arrangement - if driving is permitted; in this context comply
with the notes referring to the load charts - without extending the outrigger beams and keeping the
outrigger floats just above the ground, to the extent that this is possible in view of the available space.
• Driving the crane - if permitted; in this context comply with the notes referring to the load charts - on
excessively inclined ground or over excessively uneven ground.
• The rope becomes slack on the hoist winch.
• Improper securing of loads.
• Errors committed during operations, e.g. too fast braking of the load, fast slewing of the boom under load,
diagonal pulling of loads, or breaking them loose.
• Excessive loads imposed on the crane.
• Excessive wind loads acting on the load and/or the crane.
• The counterweight has not been selected according to the load chart.
• The automatic safe load indicator is not set to the actual rig arrangement of the crane.
• The automatic safe load indicator and other safety devices are faulty or not in operation.
• The admissible loads or the working radii specified in the load charts are exceeded.
• During crane work diagonal tensile stress is applied to the boom, especially in a lateral direction.
• Any obstacles impeding the crane's movements are ignored.
• The suspended load starts to swing due to negligent crane operation.
• Fixed loads are broken off using the hoisting gear. As the boom bounces up, this may cause the crane to
tip over backwards.
• The crane operator tries to lift too heavy loads from the ground using the boom elevation.
In this case, the automatic safe load indicator will emit an "overload" warning signal, however the
movement "boom elevation UP" is not stopped, as this is a movement which tends to reduce the load
moment.
• In the course of demolition work, too heavy loads are secured, which are suspended freely on the crane
once the connections have been released.
• The minimum clearance from live overhead lines is no longer maintained during crane work.

DANGER If these items are not observed, there is a considerable risk of accidents.
Before the operator starts crane work, he has to check whether the safety measures
have been effected as specified above.
DANGER When a thunderstorm is brewing, crane work must be stopped immediately, and the
boom must be retracted!
There is a risk of lightning stroke!

2.17.3 Servicing faults which may cause accidents

• Lack of oil, grease or anti-freeze agent in the various assemblies.


• Only the specified lubricants and oils may be used in accordance with the chart of approved lubricants.
• Anti-freeze agent must be used to protect the engine in winter.
• Water has entered the compressed air system, in spite of the air drier installed; actuate the drainage valves
at regular intervals and drain the water completely.
• Damage to the plastic tubes of the compressed air and centralized lubrication system during drilling or
welding; make sure that the plastic tubes are covered or removed during all drilling or welding work.
• Apparent or hidden damage to the tires which may result in a sudden loss of pressure.
• When replacing wheels or performing other assembly jobs, observe the specified tightening torques of the
nuts and bolts.
• Loosening of screw couplings; make sure that the correct tightening torques are adhered to on re-
tightening.
• Loosening of wheel nuts; make sure that the correct tightening torque is adhered to on re-tightening.
• Insufficient maintenance, which may result in an unexpected malfunction of assemblies, e.g. of the braking
and steering systems.
• Worn ropes which are ready for discarding and may break suddenly.
• Deficiencies in the hydraulic system, e.g. frayed hoses.
• Defective or unsatisfactorily operating safety devices, e.g. load moment limiters or hoist limit or winch limit
switches.
• The brakes have to be checked for proper working order.
• During this inspection, the brake linings must be checked for wear.
• Brake linings are subject to increased wear after installation; they must be checked more frequently during
this period.
• The steel structures, welded components and parts subject to increased stress must be examined visually.

DANGER The crane operator must have undergone thorough training with the crane, to be able to
detect and to avoid all dangers which may occur in the course of operation.
If work is not effected in an expert manner, there is an
increased risk of accidents.

Instruction Sheet for Overload Safety Devices for Boom Cranes (excerpts) B0-3

3 Instruction Sheet for Overload Safety Devices for Boom Cranes


(excerpts)

Issued by: VDMA-Fachgemeinschaft Hebezeuge


im Verein Deutscher Maschinenbau-Anstalten e.V.

The hydraulic crane supplied to you has been equipped with an overload safety device (automatic safe load
indicator), which serves to shut off the crane when the admissible load moment is being exceeded. In order
to enable discharging after the overload safety device has reacted, it must still be possible to perform a con-
trary movement. This means, for example, that it must still be possible to lower the load after the hoisting
gear has been switched OFF.

An overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) is installed to prevent crane use for lifting of loads
which endanger its stability. Thus, the overload safety device is an emergency switch which, in case of crane
overloads, shuts off all movements which might increase the load moment, and thus prevents possible dam-
age or accidents.

In order to enable the overload safety device to fulfil its functions as a safety unit, please pay special atten-
tion to the following instructions:

1) Overload safety devices (automatic safe load indicators) must not be used for switching off the hoisting
gear or the boom retracting mechanism during normal operation. The crane operator has to make sure in
all cases before such work that the lifting capacity is not exceeded by the load to be lifted. Loads which
exceed the lifting capacity of the crane must not be lifted in spite of the fact that the overload safety de-
vice is installed. This device must not be used for weighing purposes, and the crane must not be charged
with loads exceeding the individually highest admissible load.

2) Tearing off fixed loads is only admissible if the crane manufacturer has agreed to it, and only with cranes
which are specially equipped for this purpose. During such operations, the overload safety device (auto-
matic safe load indicator) must not be used as load measuring equipment for normal operation.

3) The overload safety device installed in the crane must be serviced at regular intervals and checked for
safe operation before crane work. According to § 35 of the Provisions for the Prevention of Accidents
(German: UVV) "Boom cranes", crane maintenance work also comprises regular inspections of the over-
load safety device.

4) In general, the overload safety device is not automatically adjusted to the different modes of operation of
the crane. Therefore the crane operator is obliged to adjust the overload safety device to a different range
of lifting capacities or load moments, when the mode of operation of the crane is altered.

B0-3 Instruction Sheet for Overload Safety Devices for Boom Cranes (excerpts)

3 Instruction Sheet for Overload Safety Devices for Boom Cranes (cont'd.)

Safe operation of the machine and crane work free of accidents depend to a large extent on careful compli-
ance with these instructions. An incorrectly set overload safety device, e.g. a device which is set to a high
load moment while the outriggers are retracted, is considerably more dangerous than a crane without an
overload safety device, as it conveys a feeling of safety to the driver, which is in fact not justified, and which
may cause severe accidents.

5) The overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) installed must be adjusted by the crane driver
to the different ranges of lifting capacities or load moments, when the crane is adjusted to different modes
of operation, such as:

a) when the outriggers are extended or retracted (switching over to the high or low load moment)

b) when the boom length is changed by:


- extending or retracting (telescoping) manually, mechanically or hydraulically;
- mounting or dismounting intermediate elements;

c) when the crane is swung or slewed into the range of the higher or lower stability moment (switching over
to the high or low load moment)

d) when changing over to a different load moment by fitting multiple rope falls to the hoisting gear.

6) Please note positively that the overload safety device cannot become effective, i.e. the drive assembly
cannot be switched off quickly enough when the crane is operated incorrectly. In this case, accidents
cannot be precluded completely in spite of the overload safety device being installed. This applies particu-
larly to the following cases:

• the hook or the load lifting equipment is fixed underneath the load;
• excessive time-lag forces are effective;
• loads are dropped into the rope;
• the load is pulled diagonally;
• the crane is driven in an area with considerable ground inclinations, if the soil is yielding or if the wind ex-
erts an essential load.

7) If switch-off equipment for overriding the overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) is in-
stalled, it may only be used if particular precautions have been taken, and in the presence of the crane
supervisors, e.g. during crane inspections and during the operations intended by the crane manufacturer.

Never switch off or override the overload safety device during normal operation to lift loads which
exceed the crane's specifically admissible lifting capacities for the individual work performed.

Careful compliance with the provisions comprised in this instruction sheet and in the operating manual of the
crane manufacturer is a prerequisite to safe operation of the overload safety device (overload disconnect
unit).

Should you have any doubts, please consult the Operating Manual. If it does not provide sufficient informa-
tion, it will be necessary to contact our specialist staff. Unauthorized tampering with the overload safety de-
vice's mechanical components will rule out all warranty claims.

1 General instructions concerning operation of the vehicle

All controls and gauges required for operation of the vehicle are installed in the cabins of the chassis and/or
the superstructure.
Before putting the machine into operation, it is essential that the driver reads part "B" and the Safety
Provisions B.0 of this manual thoroughly.

• The driver must be absolutely familiar with the position and the purpose of all controls and operating
elements. This is a prerequisite for safe operation of the machine.
• Before the engine is started, the parking brake lever in the chassis and the rocker switch "parking brake" in
the superstructure must be set to "braking" position.
• Before the engine is started, especially if the vehicle has been immobilized for an extended period of time,
it is necessary to check the oil and fluid levels in the following components:

- Engine oil level.


- Oil level in hydraulic oil tank which supplies the steering, the suspension, the outriggers and the fan drive,
- Check the coolant level in the engine.
The cooling systems are filled correctly if the coolant reaches the rim of the filler socket on the compensating
tank.

DANGER Do not check the coolant level while the engine is warm; the cooling system is
pressurized.
There is a risk of scalding when the filler socket is opened while the engine is warm!

• To start the engine, make sure that the rotary switch "driving operation" is set to neutral.
• Before the vehicle is set into motion, the tires and the spare wheel**)must be checked for good condition.

DANGER Insufficient tread-pattern depth, incorrect tire pressures and damaged tires will result
in an increased risk of accidents.

NOTE The STGO travel speeds and axle


loads apply only for public roads in UK.
The STGO travel speeds are allowed only
up to tyre speed limits (see tag on
instrument panel and in manual).
Driving with axle loads higher than 12.000
kg will increase the braking/stopping
distance. The braking performance of the
crane shall be established by the driver at
the actual axel loads under normal
operating conditions. Special attention shall
be paid to local conditions (e.g. road
condition, weather condition, …)
Every attempt should be made to distribute
the load evenly on all axles were possible
(see instruction manual).
Axle loads higher than 12.000 kg will cause
significantly more wear and tear of
components (e.g. brake linings, tyres,
shafts, gearbox, engine, suspension,…).
The driver is responsible for taking into
account the above points when driving a
crane with axle loadings exceeding 12,500
kg per axle (as allowed under the STGO
Regulations).

4.6.5.3 ABV system (automatic anti-block system)

The ABV system prevents the individual wheels from blocking in case of excessively powerful actuation of
the service brake system, when the appropriate electronic system detects skidding or otherwise varying road
conditions.

Thus, the vehicle's driving and steering stability remains ensured to a large degree, due to non-blocking
wheels, as far as this is possible considering the prevailing physical possibilities, even during full braking
operation.

When the engine is started, the safety circuit checks actively the sensor-based monitoring of the wheels and
axles, as well as all the other essential components of the ABV system.

The vehicle is equipped with the following warning and inspection lamps which ensure detection of the
functions and the continuous monitoring of the ABV system:

Warning lamp "ABV - tractor" 6

The warning lamp 6 "ABV - tractor vehicle" monitors the chassis. After the ignition has been
switched on, the ABS warning lamp must go on, and go out again after 2 to 3 seconds.

When the warning lamp 6 "ABV - tractor" goes on during travelling operation, this indicates a
failure of the ABV components. However, in this case the functional safety of the conventional
air-actuated brake system remains fully ensured.

Warning lamp "ABV - Trailer" 5**)

The warning lamp „ABV - Trailer“ 5 monitors the trailer. After the ignition has been switched
on, the ABV warning lamp must go on, and go out again after 2 to 3 seconds.
If a trailer without ABV system is coupled, the warning lamp 5 “ABV trailer” must not be lit.

When the warning lamp „ABV - Trailer“ 5 goes on during operation with trailer, this indicates a
failure of the ABV / trailer components. However, in this case the functional safety of the
conventional air-actuated brake system remains fully ensured.

4.6.5.2.2 ABV system “off-road mode”

The ABV system can be switched over to an increased brake slip via the rocker tip switch 90
“ABV OFF-road mode” in the instrument panel.
If this mode is selected, the braking distance in rough terrain and on dirt tracks (e.g. on soft or
extremely uneven ground and on downhill gradients) can be reduced.
The off-road mode in the tractor vehicle and in the trailer can be actuated while the vehicle is
at a standstill (key in steering lock in "driving" position), or during driving operation.
Once the engine has been stopped and re-started, the off-road mode ABV function is reset
automatically.
When driving in rough terrain, the function can be switched off again via the rocker tip switch
90 “ABV off-road mode”.

Driving in rough terrain: Off-road mode switched ON via rocker tip switch 90, the warning lamp 6 or - if a
trailer is coupled, the warning lamps 6 and 5 - is (are) flashing on the instrument panel.

Driving on solid roads: Off-road mode switched OFF via rocker tip switch 90; the warning lamp 6 - or the
warning lamps 6 and 5 - has (have) gone out.

Attention On public roads, the ABV system must not be in “off-road mode”, as otherwise the
wheels may be blocked.

4.6.6 Monitoring the tachograph


(EC tachograph)

The tachograph 50 is combined with a speedometer and


records the speed and the distance covered automatically and
in relation to the actual time-of-day. The periods of work and
rest of the drivers are recorded in time groups. Each time
group is assigned a certain symbol (1 and 2). This function is
controlled via the adjusting knobs (1a and 2a). A LED (3) is
installed to allow a function check. When the admissible
maximum speed is reached, the LED (4) goes on.

For further details, please refer to the enclosed manual on the


tachograph.

4.7 Hydraulic system of suspension; inclination adjustment; level control

Important instructions for operation of the hydraulic suspension system

DANGER z Leveling is only admissible on horizontal and level ground.


The rear steering must be locked. The pilot lamp 1 "rear axles unlocked" must not
be lit.

z Leveling is only admissible while the vehicle is at a standstill, and never during
traveling operation.

z Make sure that the axle suspension is locked before lowering the suspension.

z When leveling the vehicle for on-road driving operation, the axle suspension must
not be locked.

z Make sure that the axle suspension is locked before adjusting the vehicle's
inclination.

4.7.1 Inclination adjustment

If the inclination of the ground is to be compensated, e.g. during off-road operation with the crane standing
free on wheels, or if the outriggers on one side of the vehicle are to be extended beyond an obstacle, it is
possible to correct the vehicle's inclination or to lift/lower the machine only in one position, to enable
extension of the outriggers, by varying the oil filling in the individual suspension cylinders.

DANGER Do not tilt the vehicle out of its horizontal alignment more than is absolutely
necessary. The necessary stability must always be ensured - risk of overturning!

DANGER The inclination adjusting device must be put into operation while the engine is
running. The parking brake must be engaged, the rear axle steering must be locked.
After an inclination compensation, the vehicle must return to the horizontal position.
However, while the vehicle is driven in off-road terrain and on uneven roads, the
individual suspension cylinders must not be extended or retracted to their final end
position.
In the case of maximum inclination adjustment, e.g. left side lowered, right side lifted,
the chassis must not be moved while the steering is actuated.

DANGER For safety reasons, the inclined vehicle must not be moved while the steering is
actuated!

NOTE Leveling is only admissible up to an engine speed of max. 1200 rpm (in case of
approx. 12 t axle load. At a lower axle load, the engine speed must be reduced
accordingly).

Gearshift and driving operation B1-5

5 Gearshift and driving operation

DANGER During driving operation, do not set the key switch 91 to position 2.

It is recommended that the key switch be removed during driving operation.

5.1 Gearshift

The vehicle is equipped with a gearbox featuring the automatic ZF control system, series AS Tronic. The
gearbox is adapted to the engine via a standard dry clutch.
The gearbox installed, type 12 AS 2302, has 12 forward and 2 reverse speeds.

Before starting the engine, make sure that the handbrake - parking brake lever in the chassis and
rocker switch for parking brake in superstructure - is in braking position.

DANGER There is no braking effect when the engine is not running and while the gearbox is set
to neutral position.

Even without actuation of the accelerator pedal, the vehicle might roll away.

Do not place the gearshift lever in NEUTRAL during travelling operation. In this case,
the engine's braking effect would not be available, which might result in extremely
dangerous situations.

It is not admissible to leave the vehicle while the engine is running and a gear is
engaged.

Before leaving the vehicle with the engine running, the gearbox must be set to neutral,
and the parking brake must be engaged.

Even if gear "D" is engaged, the vehicle may roll backwards. The clutch is only
engaged when the vehicle is set into motion.

While the vehicle is at a standstill with the engine running and a gear engaged, it is
sufficient to actuate the accelerator pedal to set the vehicle into operation.

Perform brake tests immediately after starting to drive.

As the vehicle must be stopped with the gearbox set to neutral, so that there is no
rigid connection from the engine to the axles, the vehicle must be blocked during
stopping and parking, so as to prevent it from rolling away, especially on uphill or
downhill gradients.
To this effect, apart from engaging the parking brake, secure the vehicle, if necessary,
by wheel chocks placed under the tires.

Do not allow the vehicle to roll contrary to the driving direction of the gear engaged.

ATTENTION Engage the reverse speed only when the vehicle does not move.

B1-5 Gearshift and driving operation

5.1 Gearshift and driving operation (cont'd.)

ATTENTION The vehicle may accelerate when driving on downhill gradients. There will be no
automatic upshifting of the gearbox. To protect the engine against damage in the
overspeeding range, the driver must take appropriate measures (for ex. braking) to
avoid overspeeding.
In case of excessive engine speeds, "emergency" upshifting will take place to protect
the engine.
At 2,650 rpm, "emergency" upshifting will be effected even if the service and
continuous service brakes are engaged.
At 3,500 rpm, "emergency" upshifting will take place when the continuous service
brake is engaged, but also in mere overrun condition.

The engine might be damaged if the vehicle accelerates during downhill driving, thus
accelerating the engine to the overspeeding range.

- When leaving the vehicle, engage the parking brake and, if necessary, block the wheels additionally by
placing wheel chocks under the wheels.
- In case of irregularities of the gearbox (error message in the display), stop the vehicle, look for the fault and
- if it cannot be eliminated by the equipment available in or on the vehicle, request specialist staff.
- Before stopping the engine, set the gearbox to neutral.
- The 3rd gear has been programmed as starting gear. However, it may be useful to preselect a lower gear
for starting.
- Maneuvering is only admissible in the 1st and 2nd forward and reverse gears.
- In case of extended stops (at traffic lights etc.), set the gearbox to neutral.

For further details on gearshift and driving operation, refer to the enclosed operating manual of the gearbox
manufacturer.

5.2 Transfer box

The vehicle is equipped with a two-step transfer box with three shift positions for on-road and off-road gear
and a neutral position.
The control position ”on-road / off-road” is effected electro-pneumatically via a rocker tip switch 62 “on-road /
off-road gear” in the “instrument panel” and is monitored by two indicator lamps 30 “off-road gear” and 17
“on-road gear”: The "neutral" position is selected pneumatically via a change-over valve. The neutral position
is only used for towing the vehicle.
The off-road gear is used if the vehicle is operating under considerable load, on long uphill gradients, in
difficult terrain, during manoeuvring and under winter-time road conditions.

Attention The gear steps "on-road / off-road / neutral" may only be changed over when the
vehicle is at a standstill and when the gearbox is set to neutral.

5.2.1 Changing over from on-road to off-road gear

DANGER After starting to drive, perform immediately a brake test using the service brake and the
auxiliary brake (handbrake), if possible on a dry road. During traveling operation, the
air pressure gauges 48 and 49 and the warning lamps of the brake system 3 and 44
must be watched permanently.

5.6.1 Service brake (footbrake)

The foot-actuated brake pedal (1), which acts on all wheels,


must be used for slowing down and for stopping the vehicle.
To this effect, the brake pedal must be actuated gently.

DANGER The warning lamp 3 "service brake" must


not go on during traveling operation.
Should they nevertheless go on, stop the
vehicle immediately and determine the
fault.

NOTE When the service brake (foot brake) is actuated, the engine brake is connected
automatically.

The brake has been designed as a dual-circuit brake; however the effect of the auxiliary brake (handbrake)
cannot be assumed by each circuit, but only a certain residual braking effect can be reached (reduced
braking effect).

5.6.2 Auxiliary brake (handbrake)

The auxiliary braking effect is achieved by the air accumulator cylinders via the handbrake.
In case of failure of the service brake (foot brake), or of a part of the service brake, the vehicle
can only be braked via the handbrake valve. The warning lamp 44 “parking brake” goes on. P
The handbrake can be actuated gradually. To this effect, pull the handbrake lever backwards
and make it lock in.

5.6.3 Parking brake (handbrake)

If the vehicle is to be stopped or parked, actuate the


handbrake valve lever backwards until the vehicle is fully
braked, and make it lock in. The warning lamp 44 “parking
brake” goes on when the ignition is switched on.

DANGER If the vehicle is to be parked on upward


or downward gradients for an extended
period of time, it must be protected
against rolling away by means of wheel
chocks.

To release the handbrake, pull the handle of the lever out of Pos. 1: lock position
its locking mechanism and push it forward to its stop (pos. 3). Pos. 2: positively braked
The warning lamp 44 “parking brake” goes out when the Pos. 3: released

5.7 Cruise control

The cruise control functions enable the driver to maintain a certain speed previously selected, even under
changing load conditions, without having to actuate the accelerator pedal.

The cruise control can be adjusted as of 15 k.p.h. up to the vehicle's maximum speed.

DANGER Do not use the cruise control under winter-time or skidding road conditions nor if the
traffic conditions are not absolutely clear. Risk of accidents !

NOTE Only use the cruise control if the traffic conditions allow driving at a constant speed.

When the cruise control is activated, the driver can release the accelerator pedal.

The set speed can be exceeded, e.g. in order to overtake another vehicle, by actuating
the accelerator pedal accordingly.

Switch the cruise control off if you want to exceed the set speed for an extended
period of time.

Due to the engine power output, the current speed may be lower than the set speed
when driving on uphill gradients.

To maintain the set speed when driving on downhill gradients, the fuel flow is reduced
to the flow needed at idle speed via the engine control system (FMR). If the braking
effect of the engine is no longer sufficient, the set speed might be exceeded.

The set speed must not exceed the admissible maximum speed for the corresponding
gear (observe the revolution counter).

5.7.1 Traveling

The cruise control is activated via the control lever installed


on the steering column.

- Accelerate the vehicle to a traveling speed of more than


15 k.p.h..
- Set the control lever to position (1) and keep it in this
position.
- Accelerate until the vehicle reaches the desired speed.
- Release the lever; the current speed will be maintained and
stored in the memory.
- Set the control lever to position (1) and touch it slightly; the
current speed will be maintained and stored in the memory,
or the stored speed will be increased in steps of 0.5 k.p.h.
each.
- Set the control lever to position (2) and keep it in this position; the current speed will be reduced steadily.
- Release the control lever; the current speed will be maintained and stored in the memory.
- Set the control lever to position (2) and touch it slightly; the current speed will be maintained and stored in
the memory, or the stored speed will be reduced in steps of 0.5 k.p.h. each.
- Set the control lever to position (3) and touch it slightly; the cruise control system will be switched off. The
speed must again be controlled by actuating the accelerator pedal. The set speed will be deleted.

(cont'd.) 5.7.1 Traveling

NOTE The cruise control system is automatically switched off and a set speed is deleted
when:

• the service brake or the continuous service brake are actuated,


• the vehicle speed drops below 10 k.p.h.,
• the Temposet is activated,
• the ignition key is turned to the left to its stop.

The cruise control function is briefly interrupted, but subsequently re-activated


(standby function, the set speed remains stored) while:

• control or gearshift operations are performed,


• the vehicle is accelerated via the accelerator pedal with the cruise control system
activated. After releasing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will return to the set
traveling speed.

5.8 Temposet

The Temposet functions enable the driver to set a maximum speed between 15 k.p.h. and the set maximum
speed.
The vehicle speed is regulated via the accelerator pedal, as in case of traveling operation without the
Temposet function.

5.8.1 Operation of the Temposet

- Touch the Temposet key (4) slightly. The vehicle speed is


limited to the current traveling speed.

Changing the maximum traveling speed:


- Press the Temposet key "4" and keep it pressed; accelerate
or decelerate the vehicle to the desired new speed.
- Release the Temposet key "4"; the current traveling speed
is stored as the new maximum speed.

Terminating the Temposet function:


- Set the actuating lever to position "3" and touch it slightly;
the set maximum speed is deleted.

NOTE In order to exceed the set maximum speed for a short period of time, e.g. to overtake
another vehicle, depress the accelerator pedal to its stop (full throttle). Release the
accelerator pedal and actuate it once again after the vehicle has been accelerated.
Subsequently, the set maximum speed is reactivated.

The set maximum speed is automatically deleted when the ignition key is turned to its
left to its stop, or when the cruise control system is activated.

5.9 Steering variants

The possibility to unlock the rear axles and to steer them along with other axles enables a number of
steering variants which are shown schematically below.

Variant:

A= Two-axle steering - front axle steering. The steering


acts only on the front axles.

Attention Only this variant is admissible for on-road


travel.

B= Four-axle steering - front and rear axles are steered.


This variant (steering position) enables driving and
manoeuvering with minimum turning radii.

C= Four-alxe steering - front and rear axles are steered.


This variant (steering position) - the so-called diagonal
steering - allows the vehicle to be driven in slanted
position.

A B C
Fahrtrichtung = Driving direction

5.9.1 Steering the rear axles from the chassis

Attention The rear axle steering can only be actuated in the speed ranges of the gear steps
"Forward 1 - 3, Neutral and Reverse 1 - 2". The rear axles cannot be unlocked in a
different gearbox position.
Consequently, with the rear axles unlocked, driving is only possible in the gear steps
"Forward 1 - 3, Neutral and Reverse 1 - 2". In this steering mode, no other gear steps
can be selected.

The rear axle steering permits very small turning radii in very confined areas, on a level road; it
also permits the crane to be moved laterally (diagonal steering).

- Unlock the rear axles by means of the rocker switch 75.

- The pilot lamp 1 flashes.

- Now the rear axles can be steered, as desired, via the rocker tip switch 74.

Rocker tip switch actuated to the left = steering towards the left side.
Rocker tip switch actuated to the right = steering towards the right side.

Gearshift and driving operation B1-5

5.9.2 Locking the rear axle steering

- Check whether the steering locking cylinder of the rear axle is still unlocked. The indicator lamp 1 must still
flash.

- Push the rocker tip switch 74 to set the wheels to straight-ahead steering position.

- Actuate the rocker switch 75 to "lock" the rear axles.

- When the steering locking cylinder has locked the system, the warning lamp 1 goes out as well.

- If the warning lamp does not go out, i.e. the indicator lamp 1 continues flashing, the wheels' straight-ahead
steering position must be corrected.

- Lock the rear axles by actuating the rocker tip switch 74 (moving the steering wheel from the right to the
left). The indicator lamp 1 must have gone out.

- Before starting to drive on the road, check the vehicle for level condition and, if necessary, realign it.

Attention Make sure that the rear axle steering is locked in straight-ahead position, for safety
reasons, while the vehicle is driving on public roads, and when it is standing in
inclined position, e.g. on downward gradients. (The indicator lamp 1 must have gone
out).

IT IS NOT ADMISSIBLE TO ACTUATE THE REAR AXLE STEERING CONFIGURATION ON PUBLIC

6.2 Control of the electric outrigger actuation

For crane operation, the crane carrier must be supported by the four outriggers. They are located on the right
and left sides of the vehicle, on the front and rear ends. All outriggers are operated hydraulically, via an
electric trigger circuit. For outrigger operation, a control box (refer to the illustration) has been installed on the
left and right sides of the vehicle. Only the outriggers located on the side of the outrigger casing can be
actuated from each control box.
The various operating elements are explained under items 6.2.1 and 6.2.2.

6.2.3 Engine speed regulation (manual throttle, working speed)

For outrigger operation, the engine speed can be raised by hand. The maximum working speed is 1800
r.p.m.

DANGER Driving operation with activated manual throttle control is prohibited.


The working speed must always be reset to idling level and the rocker switch 83
"working speed" must be switched off.

In the carrier instrument panel:

Switching on the working speed:

- Actuate the rocker switch 83 "working speed" downwards.

Thus, the engine speed regulation is connected.

In the outrigger casings on the left or right:

Increasing the engine speed:

The engine speed can be adjusted progressively.


- Actuate the rocker tip switch (9 in the outrigger casing) "engine speed regulation".

- Rocker tip switch pressed upwards = engine speed is reduced.


- Rocker tip switch pressed down = engine speed is increased.

Reset the engine to idle speed for traveling operation:

- Keep the rocker tip switch (9 in outrigger casing) "engine speed regulation" pressed upwards until the
engine has reached idle speed level.

- Actuate the rocker switch 83 "working speed" upwards; the engine speed regulation is inoperative.

NOTE The rocker tip switch (9 in outrigger casing) serves moreover to increase the idling speed
up to a level of 900 rpm, if the rocker switch (83 in the instrument panel) is not actuated.
This function is only active while the vehicle is at a standstill.

6.3 Outrigger operation from the chassis


6.3.1 Changing the position of and securing the outrigger floats for outrigger
operation by means of pins

Position of the outrigger floats during on-road travel

In on-road driving condition, the outrigger floats are slipped in the


stay tubes (12) with the guide assemblies, and locked.

The outrigger floats must be secured with pins through the front
bore-hole (13) of the guide frame, and locked.

Attention In on-road driving condition, the lock pin (15)


must be secured through the bore-hole (13)
behind the cylinder rod.

Position of outrigger floats for crane operation

Before the outrigger jacks can be extended, the outrigger floats must
be removed from their supports.

- Take the folding plug (14) out of the lock pin (15) and remove the
pin.

- Pull the outrigger float forward until the guide frame touches the
cylinder rod and until the rear bore-hole (16) of the guide frame can
be fastened with lock bolts (15) and secured.

Attention Before outrigger operation begins, the lock pin (15) must be inserted through the
bore-hole (16) in front of the cylinder rod.

NOTE The surface of the outrigger floats may discolour (turn grey) due to atmospheric
exposure, e.g. to sun. However, this does not affect the outrigger floats' functional
reliability.

6.4 Instructions regarding outrigger operation

NOTE The outriggers may be operated (extended or retracted) on principle only if the
operator has full vision of the supporting area during the whole supporting procedure.
The outrigger beams located can only be extended or retracted from the respective
operator's side of the chassis.

Attention Before outrigger operation, the axle suspension must be locked and the vehicle must be
lowered.
While the vehicle is supported by outriggers, the tires must not be in contact with the
ground, as otherwise the axles could be damaged during crane work when under load.
The tires must not be placed on supporting material.
When changing the crane's rig arrangement for on-road travel, the axle suspension
lock may only be deactivated if the wheels have full ground contact, due to the
outrigger cylinders' being retracted.

DANGER While outriggers are extended or retracted, nobody is allowed to stay close to the
outrigger beams and the outrigger cylinders.

! Risk of accidents ! The axle suspension lock must never be deactivated while the
vehicle is supported by outriggers. This will damage the axle suspension components.

To prevent damage to the outrigger assembly and accidents during travelling and
crane operation, it is particularly important to unlock (by removing the pins) the
outrigger beams before extending and retracting them, and to lock (by means of pins)
the outrigger beams during crane work.

Once crane work is finished and the crane retrofitted for on-road travel, it must be
ensured that the outrigger cylinders and beams are completely retracted and locked
with pins.

6.5 Extending the outrigger beams

DANGER Make sure that the extended outrigger beams are secured with pins, as there is a risk
of accidents otherwise.
The program of the automatic safe load indicator (ASLI) must always be set to the
correct supporting base (refer to load charts). Should this instruction not be
observed, there is a risk that the crane might tip over during crane work.

6.5.1 Outrigger operation in on-road driving condition

Operation in winter B1-8

8 Operation in winter

Depending on the climatic conditions of the area where the crane is to be used, the weather conditions may
be more or less extreme during the winter months. Thus, the instructions mentioned below must definitely be
observed to ensure trouble-free and safe operation in winter.

DANGER Particular care is required when climbing up or using steps, ladders and platforms in
damp weather and snow.

• Access steps and platforms must be cleaned to remove dirt, oil, grease and smeary substances.
! Risk of slipping !

• Loose snow, frozen layers of snow and ice may form a dangerous coating on the boom surfaces, counter-
weights and platforms on the chassis.

! Risk of accidents!

• Snow and ice must be removed from the vehicle before the machine is set into motion.
• Snow or lumps of ice which are blown down or which fall down during crane work may endanger the road
users.

! Risk of accidents !

DANGER In case of extremely low freezing temperatures, do not touch metal surfaces with your
naked hands - danger of freezing to metal surfaces!

NOTE The recommendations regarding oil sorts provided in part "C1" must be observed for
the following assemblies.

Under extreme weather conditions, it may be advisable to use snow chains.


The instructions of the snow chain manufacturer regarding assembly, speeds and other data must be ob-
served.

8.1 Engine
8.1.1 Engine oil

In order to ensure a sufficient lubrication in case the vehicle is to be started at low ambient temperatures, the
viscosity of the engine oil must be selected according to the ambient temperatures prevailing at the time
when the engine is started.
Adhere to the specifications of the engine manufacturer supplied in the separate brochure.

8.1.2 Coolant in water-cooled engines

Attention The engine must be filled with anti-corrosion - anti-freeze agent all the year round.

The engine must be checked for a sufficient portion of coolant or anti-freeze agent in time, before the tem-
perature drops below zero.
Adhere to the specifications of the engine manufacturer supplied in the separate brochure.

B1-8 Operation in winter

8.1.3 Diesel fuels

In order to avoid operating malfunctions, the winter diesel fuel available on the market during the cold sea-
son must be used. If only summer-type diesel fuel is available, or if winter-type diesel fuel is used at very low
ambient temperatures, a certain amount of petroleum, the quantity of which depends on the ambient tem-
peratures, must be added to the fuel in order to avoid segregation of paraffin.

The approximate values for the amount of additive are indicated in the operating manual of the engine manu-
facturer.
There is a simple method to check the diesel fuel for its suitability at the prevailing low temperatures:

- Fill diesel fuel into a flask and expose it to the ambient temperatures. If flakes develop in the fuel (paraffin),
the latter is only suited for operation at higher temperatures.

8.1.4 Starting the engine at low ambient temperatures

For the steps to be taken and for further details, please refer to the brochure of the engine manufacturer.

8.2 Gearbox
8.2.1 Start-up, vehicle operation and parking the vehicle at low temperatures

For information on operation in winter, refer to the enclosed operating manual of the gearbox manufacturer.

(For recommended oil types, refer to ZF Chart of Lubricants in part "G1".)

8.3 Warming up the hydraulic oil or changing the oil type in winter

At low ambient temperatures, the hydraulic oils recommended in part "C1" must be used.

If the oils to be used at the appropriate ambient temperatures approach the limits (values of max. 10°C be-
low the minimum temperature limit are admissible), the hydraulic oil can be warmed up without requiring a
change of the oil type.

The admissible service temperature is approx. 70°C to 80°C.

Attention Avoid relatively high engine speeds while the hydraulic oil is still cold. Allow the oil to
warm up at least until it reaches the lower service temperature level.

If the hydraulic system is filled e.g. with hydraulic oil HLP 68 or HLP 46, the oil type must be replaced by the
specified pressure fluids at low ambient temperatures.

8.4 Batteries

Well-charged batteries are a prerequisite for starting the engine at low ambient temperatures.

At ambient temperatures lower than -30°C, when the machine is standing in the open air for an extended
period of time without being operated (for ex. at night), the batteries must be heated or removed from the
vehicle and stored in a warm room.

In winter, the current consumption should be kept as low as possible.

Check the acid density and the acid level as described in part "C1".

Discharged batteries freeze already at temperatures as from -10°C.

Adhere to the instructions of the battery manufacturer.

8.5 Adjustable air vents

The supply of warm / fresh air can be controlled by means of the adjustable air vents item. 2.1, Pos. 3; 25
and 32.

8.6 Windshield washing system

During the winter months, a certain amount of antifreeze agent for windshield washing systems, the quantity
of which depends on the temperature, must be added to the water of the windshield washing system.

The washer water is made frost-proof by adding washer additives (cleaning agent and antifreeze agent for
windshield washing systems). Observe the manufacturer's instructions for use.

10.6 Checking the air accumulator retaining force on upward gradients -


vehicles equipped with trailer coupling device

In the case of vehicles with trailer coupling device, it must be possible to check the tractor's air accumulator
retaining force for the whole tractor-trailer combination.
X= Lock position
This check position has been integrated in the valve of the
handbrake.
Checking the air accumulator retaining force:
- The valve of the handbrake is engaged (refer also to item
B1-4.5).
- Push the handle (2) down and pull the lever (1) back to its
stop.
- Check whether the air accumulator retaining force is
capable of holding the whole vehicle combination (the
whole tractor-trailer combination does not move).
- Return the lever (1) to its locking position (braking position).

The check should be effected whenever the vehicle


combination is to be parked on upward or downward
gradients.
The tractor's air accumulator system must be capable of
holding the whole vehicle combination up to a gradient of
12% while the handbrake is engaged.

While the vehicle is parked, it must be protected from rolling by additional wheel chocks placed under the
tires.

10.7 Eddy-current brake

Attention The accelerator pedal is inoperative as long as the hand-actuated switch of the eddy-
current brake is actuated.

The use of the eddy-current brake avoids the systematic use of the service brake. This, in
turn, remains cool, efficient and ready for use for cases in which it is indispensable.

- Set the hand-actuated switch to the positions 2 - 5; the eddy-current brake is activated, the
yellow indicator lamp 4 "Continuous service brake" is lit.

The braking effect of the eddy current brake can be graduated.

The hand-actuated switch has 6 positions:


Position Braking effect
0 0
1 Engine brake/
constant throttle
valve (continuous
service brake)
2 ¼ (eddy-current
brake)
3 ½ (eddy-current
brake)
4 ¾ (eddy-current
brake)
5 Total (eddy-current
brake)

NOTE The eddy-current brake is ready to operate as soon as the vehicle starts moving (as
from approx. 3 - 5 k.p.h.). The various steps of the control device enable the driver to
obtain the desired braking effect.
It is however necessary to make the switch lock in briefly for each step (i.e. no switch
position must be skipped), in order to prevent the limits of adherence from being
exceeded on slippery surfaces.

10.7.1 Terminating braking operation with the eddy-current brake

After the braking procedure has been finished, the hand-actuated switch must be in position 0; the yellow
pilot lamp 4 "Continuous service brake" must go out.

10.7.1.1 Stopping and parking the vehicle

Attention As soon as the vehicle has stopped completely, return the hand-actuated switch to
position "0" and engage the parking brake. This is to prevent unnecessary power
consumption and overheating of the eddy-current brake. The pilot lamp 4 "Continuous
service brake" must go out.
- When the machine is parked for an extended period of time, shut the engine off and set the battery main
switch to OFF.

4/14 2003-01
Attachments, optional equipment and accessories in the chassis B1-10

(cont'd.) 10.7 Eddy-current brake

Attention The eddy-current brake is without function when the vehicle is not running, and thus
cannot be used as parking brake. Make sure that the parking brake is engaged and
that the gearbox is set to neutral "N".

NOTE The braking effect of the eddy-current brake and the engine exhaust flap brake should
be coordinated with the operation of the service brake, i.e. they should be actuated
alternately, to obtain an optimum braking effect and to save the service brake, i.e. to
have the full service brake effect available for unforeseen cases.

10.7.2 Examples for application of the eddy-current brake

In "city" mode
- At very low speeds, the eddy-current brake is highly effective for the most
common braking operations in city travel (at junctions, around bends, at
turning points etc.) and when stopping the vehicle, without actuating the
service brake.

On roads / trunk roads


- The eddy-current brake enables the necessary deceleration procedures
even from a relatively high speed, to save the wheel brakes.

Hilly terrain
- It is recommended to couple the effect of the eddy-current brake with that of
the engine brake by utilizing the correct reduction ratios. Thus, the
appropriate speed for the existing slopes and routes can be reached as fast
as possible.

On long downhill slopes


- As soon as the vehicle has been braked down to the desired speed, only the
second eddy-current brake step should be engaged to obtain the optimum
continuous braking effect. It may be useful to utilize the effect of the service
brake, continuous service brake and continuous service brake/eddy-current
brake alternately to adapt the speed of the vehicle.

On slippery roads, in snow, ice and dirt


- When the tires' adherence is diminished considerably, the eddy-current
brake is particularly effective. It not only allows progressive braking, but can
also be used to set the machine smoothly into motion on slippery roads.

Attention The fact that the machine is equipped with an eddy-current brake does not exclude
extreme caution. Thus, if the road conditions are not absolutely safe, the driver
should operate first step 2, and then, while watching the roadholding and the general
behaviour of the vehicle, the next step up.

1 General instructions concerning operation

All control elements and monitoring instruments which are required for operation of the chassis and the
superstructure are installed in the cabin of the superstructure.

Before the operator puts the superstructure into operation, he should absolutely read the following operating
instructions for the superstructure, and the Safety Provisions (part B.0).

• The driver must be absolutely familiar with the position and the purpose of all the controls and operating
elements. This is a prerequisite for safe operation of the machine.

• Before the engine in the superstructure is started, the parking brake lever in the chassis and the
rocker switch "parking brake" in the superstructure must be set to "braking" position.

• Before the engine is started, especially if the vehicle has been immobilized for an extended period of time,
it is necessary to check the oil and fluid levels in the following components:

- Engine oil level.


- Oil level in hydraulic oil tank,
- Check the coolant level in the engine.
The cooling system is filled correctly if the coolant level is between the "Max. and Min." marks on the
expansion tank.

DANGER Do not check the coolant level while the engine is hot; the cooling system is
pressurized.
There is a risk of scalding when the filler socket is opened while the engine is hot!

• To start the engine in the chassis from the superstructure, the gearbox must be set to "N" in the chassis,
and the rotary switch 40 "gear selector, gearbox" in the superstructure must be set to zero.

DANGER During operation from the superstructure, nobody is allowed to stay in the driver's
cabin in the chassis.

or "B" and "D" one by one; for each switch position, actuate the related rocker tip switch to "retracting
outrigger beams" (to the inside) and keep it pressed until the outrigger beams are retracted and can be
locked with pins.
- Reset preselector "A" to "0" position.
- Slip the outrigger floats on as specified for on-road travel, as described under item B1-6.3.1, fasten and
lock them.
- Lock the outrigger beams for on-road travel by means of pins (refer to item B1-6.5).

DANGER Make sure that the retracted outrigger beams are secured with pins, as there is a risk
of accidents otherwise.

- Actuate rocker switch 31 "Ignition, chassis" - stop the engine in the chassis.

For on-road travel, switch off the rocker switch 31 the superstructure, and set the key-actuated change-over
switch in the chassis to position 1. The axle suspension is automatically activated; the yellow pilot lamp 15
"axle lock engaged" in the superstructure goes out.

DANGER Do not change key-actuated change-over switch in the chassis over to position 1 until
all wheels are resting completely on the ground.

6 Crane movements in no-load condition

● The checks required and the measures to be taken in the chassis


have been accomplished.
● The crane is supported by outriggers as specified.
● Key-actuated switch in the chassis in position 2, refer to part B1-
4.1.1.
● Start the engine in the superstructure as described under item B2-
4.5.
● The slewing gear brake is engaged via the switch (1) (rocker switch
actuated to the left - slewing gear brake engaged; rocker switch
actuated to the right - slewing gear brake released).

● The green pilot lamp 17 "Slewing gear locked" must not be lit.

6.1 Instructions regarding actuation of the crane control

The actuation of the crane control levers described in the following text applies to the standard
machine model. Any differing special models have not been taken into account.
For the crane operator, the instruction plates mounted in the cab will be decisive in any case.

●The speed of the working movements is controlled by gentle actuation of the crane control levers and by
varying the engine speed.
●All crane movements can be performed independently of the load pressure. Depending on the work cycle,
one or both crane control levers are moved in longitudinal direction, laterally or diagonally.
●The crane movements can be regulated precisely even when the engine is operating at idling speed.

6.1.1 High speed circuit (E)

NOTE To avoid control pressure peaks, the high speed must be connected before the crane
control levers are actuated.

By actuation of the push-button "E" in the right-hand crane control


lever, the high speed can be connected for the crane movements
"hoisting up/down", boom elevation "up" and "extending" telescopes.

Attention Only two working movements are possible at a


time when the fast speed is connected, i.e.

- Slewing gear and winch, or


- Slewing gear and tele sections, or
- Slewing gear and boom elevation

Crane movements in no-load condition B2-6

6.2 Actuation of the hoisting gear (main hoisting gear)

Right-hand crane control lever


forward - bottom block moves down,
to the rear - bottom block moves up.

The hoisting speed can be controlled depending on the travel of the crane control lever and by varying the
engine speed.

The hoisting speed can be increased further by connection of the high


speed “E”, before actuation of the crane control lever.

When the highest bottom block position is reached, the hoisting gear
is switched off via the hoist limit switch. However, lowering is still
possible.

If the maximum admissible load per rope fall is reached in the course
of lifting, the system is also switched off. However, the bottom block
can still be lowered.

Before the rope end is reached on the hoist drum, the hoisting gear is
switched off by the rope limit switch (approx. 3 windings remain on the
rope drum).

DANGER If the hook block is lowered quickly without a load, it must be ensured in particular
that the rope does not get slack on the rope drum.

zMake sure that the load is not lifted or lowered by jerks.

zIf the load is decelerated or accelerated too quickly, this will cause an overload on
the drive elements and the rope, and may cause accidents, such as overturning.

Attention The high speed for "hoisting gear UP/DOWN" (regarding the hoisting gear and the
auxiliary hoisting gear) may only be connected at low or zero load. If 50% of the
maximum rope fall load are exceeded, the function “high speed” for the motion
“hoisting gear down” is interrupted.
The fast speed must be connected before a load is moved. The fast speed must not
be connected during the lifting or lowering procedure with a load fixed to the boom.

6.2.1 Auxiliary hoisting gear (2nd hoisting gear)**)


6.2.1.1 Connecting the auxiliary hoisting gear

- Actuate the rocker switch (1) in position 1 (to the left). The auxiliary
hoisting gear is connected.

The pilot lamp "2nd winch is connected" must be lit in the


ASLI (Refer to part G2 "Operation of the Automatic Safe Load
Indicator").
The allocation of functions to the left-hand crane control lever is
changed as described under item 6.2.1.2.

Fig. 1

ATTENTION As long as the left-hand crane control lever's function allocation is changed, the
telescoping movement is not available.

6.2.1.2 Allocation of functions to the left-hand crane control lever and work using the
auxiliary hoisting gear:

Left-hand crane control lever


forward - bottom block moves down,
to the rear - bottom block moves up.

The hoisting gear speed can be controlled depending on the travel of the crane control lever and by
increasing the engine speed.

The auxiliary winch is mainly used during operation with a boom extension (arrangement with one rope fall).
In case of failure of the main winch, the rope falls of the auxiliary winch can also be fixed to the pulley head
of the main boom.

In this case, the hoist limit switch weight of the main winch must be
installed to the rope of the auxiliary winch.

When the highest bottom block position is reached, the hoisting gear is
switched off via the hoist limit switch. However, lowering is still possible.

If the maximum admissible load per rope fall is reached in the course of
lifting, the system is also switched off. However, the bottom block can still
be lowered.

Before the rope end is reached on the hoist drum, the hoisting gear is
switched off by the rope limit switch (approx. 3 windings remain on the rope
drum).

Crane movements in no-load condition B2-6

cont'd.: 6.2.1.2 Allocation of functions to the left-hand crane control lever and work using the
auxiliary hoisting gear:

NOTE If work is only performed with the auxiliary winch via the jib, the
hoist limit switch on the pulley head of the main boom must be
set free via a clamping piece (2), as otherwise the hydraulic
system is switched off.

DANGER If the bottom block is lowered quickly without a load, it must be ensured that the rope
does not get slack on the rope drum.
Make sure that the load is not lifted or lowered by jerks.
If the load is decelerated or accelerated too quickly, this will cause an overload on the
drive elements and the rope, and may cause accidents, such as overturning.

6.2.1.3 Switching off the auxiliary hoisting gear

- Actuate rocker switch (1) into central position. The auxiliary hoisting gear is disconnected.

The standard allocation of the left-hand crane control lever - telescoping - is active again.

DANGER A double ladder must be positioned at the superstructure to enable placing the rope
of the 2nd winch. The double ladder is located below the driver's cab and secured by
means of supports (Refer to part B2, item 11.2).

6.2.2 Rope winch rotation indicator (D)

The integrated rotation indicator informs the crane operator about each motion of the rope drum. When the
right-hand crane control lever is actuated to position "hoisting gear raising/lowering" (or the left-hand crane
control lever, if the machine is equipped with an optional second hoisting gear), the pulse generator installed
in the handle vibrates as soon as the rope drum moves. The pulses are also indicated acoustically.

6.2.2.1 Actuation of rope winch rotation indicator

- Actuate the rocker switch 46 "rope winch rotation indicator". The function "rope winch
rotation indicator" is activated.

B2-6 Crane movements in no-load condition

6.3 Boom elevation

Right-hand crane control lever


to the left - boom is raised,
to the right - boom is lowered.

NOTE While the boom elevation is actuated, the telescopes must not be extended or
retracted.

The hoisting speed can be controlled depending on the travel of the crane control lever and by varying the
engine speed for raising the boom via the boom elevation.

To enable a faster boom elevation movement "up", the high speed “E”
can be connected, if at all possible, before the crane control lever is
actuated.

To increase the work radius ("boom down") under load, proceed


slowly and carefully, as the automatic safe load indicator (ASLI)
switches off as soon as the maximum work radius is reached (for a
description of the ASLI, please refer to part G2 Superstructure).

After switching off, only a movement tending to reduce the load


moment (boom elevation "up") can be performed.

Fast movements of the boom cause the load to swing out.

As the load swings away from the boom during the movement "boom
elevation down", the work radius is necessarily increased.

DANGER When the load swings out quickly and far, this implies an overload and can result in
accidents (tipping over).

ATTENTION The high speed for "boom elevation UP" may only be connected at low or zero load.
When the boom extension is mounted to the telescopic boom head, while the telesco-
pic boom is completely or partially extended, the fast speed must not be connected.

NOTE When performing the movement "boom elevation down" while actuating the hoisting
gear, the high speed can be connected for the hoisting gear.

6.4 Telescoping (in the case of machines equipped with one rope winch)

Left-hand crane control lever


forward - telescopes are extended,
to the rear - telescopes are retracted.

The telescoping speed can be controlled depending on the travel of the crane control lever and by increasing
the engine speed.
To enable a faster telescope extension movement, the high speed (E)
can be connected, if at all possible, before the crane control lever is
actuated.

NOTE A load must not be fixed to the hook!

The telescopes are extended to the length being monitored by the


ASLI in accordance with the required rig arrangement and the ASLI
code no. to be selected to this effect (refer to load chart).

ATTENTION Work should not be performed with a longer


boom length than is actually required to perform
the crane operation.

The code numbers indicated in the load charts must be entered into
the ASLI control unit. The desired boom length must be determined
via the load charts and the hook height diagram.

NOTE The data for changing the counterweight variants or outrigger variants can only be
entered while the telescopes are retracted.

NOTE The boom elements must be extended to the desired length in no-load condition, and
subjected to load only afterwards.

NOTE During the telescoping process, the boom elevation must not be actuated.

DANGER In case of a deficiency in the length transmitter cable (break of a strand, etc.), which
implies failure of the ASLI, work must not be continued. Place the load on the ground
and retract the boom elements in manual mode, as described under item 6.4.2 and for
the ASLI. Repair any damage immediately.

Telescopable loads

DANGER When working with the option “telescopable loads”, make sure to comply with all the
instructions and provisions specified in this operating manual.

When „telescopable loads“ is used, a load of > 5 t can be telescoped using telescope 5. For the relevant
data, refer to the appropriate load charts.
However, the code numbers of the appropriate load charts for the standard mode must be entered in the
ASLI, e.g. 001010. In this case, 901010 will be displayed.
Now the appropriate loads can be telescoped by means of telescope 5, with telescoping being performed as
described above.

NOTE When telescoping in load condition, the pin locking procedure may be impossible.

If however, once the pin locking procedure has been accomplished, telescoping in load condition is
continued, the ASLI changes over to standard mode - refer to the code numbers appearing in the display.
If admissible values are exceeded in this process, the ASLI shut-off feature will be activated.

B2-6 Crane movements in no-load condition

6.4.1 Telescoping

DANGER Before starting crane work, the user must carefully read the ASLI operating manual
and familiarize himself thoroughly with its contents, and with the method of operation
of the ASLI.

In conjunction with the ASLI system, the telescoping control automatically ensures the correct telescoping
sequence.

ATTENTION During the telescoping process, the boom must be elevated at an angle of min. 45°.

Telescoping:

- Switch the ignition ON, start the engine.


The ASLI program is started.

The start menu appears.

- The data required for crane work (load, boom length etc.) must be
determined before crane work is started.
- The code number corresponding to this crane work must be determined
based on these data, via the load charts.

The ASLI guides the operator through the program in a user-friendly fashion.
- The ASLI must be programmed with the data determined previously as
described in the operator manual.

Attention In automatic telescoping mode, switch 51 must be in its central


position.

- Actuate the crane control lever.

The tele sections are automatically extended in the correct sequence, starting from the smallest tele section,
until the required telescoping configuration is reached.
Telescoping sequence: 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1.

NOTE If the "fast speed" pushbutton of the left-hand crane control lever is actuated during
the telescoping process, telescoping is interrupted. However, the boom in question is
extended to its final position.

NOTE The required boom length must be determined precisely before work is started.

Depending on the telescoping configuration, it may not be possible to change to another telescoping
configuration (e.g. from 100/100/50/50/0 to 100/100/100/50/0) without resetting the crane to its former rig
arrangement.
For further information, please refer to the notes regarding the load chart, or to the ASLI operating manual.

- Perform crane work as described in Part B2, items B2-6 and B2-7.

DANGER If a malfunction occurs in the control program during telescoping operation, proceed
as described under item 6.4.2.

8/46 2003-01
Crane movements in no-load condition B2-6

6.4.2 Emergency control

When telescoping the tele sections, make sure that the selected, automatically limited telescope lengths
according to the entered ASLI code are complied with.
If the operator notices, on telescoping the tele sections, that these are not extended completely to their
preselected position (malfunction in ASLI system regarding the length change-over point), the rocker tip
switch "emergency control" can be actuated to perform emergency control of the tele sections.

DANGER The emergency control feature may only be used to retract the tele sections (resetting
them to their former position). This requires maximum care and caution.

After activation of the emergency control, the functions "boom elevation", "telescope", "hoisting
gears 1 and 2**)" and "swing mechanism" can be controlled. The assignment of functions of the
crane control lever always corresponds to the EURO control system. All motions are controlled
digitally; the speed can be regulated within certain limits via the engine speed.

DANGER Only operate the swing mechanism at idle and while the boom is as short as possible.
To this effect, the vehicle must be supported by outriggers as specified.

Further explanations regarding the telescoping control


If the automatic system fails when the cylinder or a telescopic element is unlocked by removal of the
pin, it is recommended to release the telescope via the emergency control before the unit is reset by
hand to its former rig arrangement. To this effect, switch the emergency control on via the rocker
switch 52 and pull crane control lever for approx. 3 or 4 seconds backwards. Subsequently, switch
the emergency control off again. Now automatic operation can normally be resumed. If releasing
does not show the desired result, the boom must be returned to its former rig arrangement by hand.

ATTENTION In case of telescopes 1 to 3, the tele cylinder can be extended forward, beyond the
cylinder guide of the tele sections in question. However, under unfavourable circum-
stances, the proximity switches for the telescoping display ID might be damaged on
retracting. To reduce this risk to the largest possible extent, it is recommended to lift
the boom via the boom elevation as far as possible before retracting the elevation
cylinder.

In the case of boom lengths lower than approx. 18 m, the tele cylinder might push
through the boom head on extending.

During a telescoping movement, the bottom block must always be watched.

6.4.2.1 Retracting the boom in manual mode

Prerequisite: The proximity switches for telescoping display ID and the locking mechanism appear on the
ASLI display.

Attention If no length transmitter signal is available, all movements must be performed at idle.

1. Activate emergency control: 52 (1) 51 50


Actuate the lock handle (1) down to unlock the rocker switch 52
"telescope emergency mode"; push rocker switch down and lock it.
The green function lamp in the switch is lit.

After switching on the emergency control, all locking mechanisms change initially over to position "pin
engaged" or "floating".

2. Check whether the tele cylinder is pin-fastened in one of the sections (displays, ASLI, pin securing
mechanism and valid telescoping indication ID) (refer to diagram).
In this case, continue as described under item 9.
Otherwise, proceed first of all as described under items 3 to 8.
3. Retract the pin from the tele cylinder; to this effect, move rocker switch 51 upwards and actuate rocker
tip switch 50, until complete releasing of the pin lock is signalled.
4. If the position of the tele cylinder with regard to the first telescope to be moved is unclear, retract tele
cylinder completely by moving the left-hand crane control lever back (also in case of FAUN control !)
until the cylinder length 0 is indicated. If the cylinder length transmitter has failed, watch the cable drum
on the boom underside.
5. Extend tele cylinder until one of the ID switches appears in the ASLI display for the tele section to be
reset to its former rig arrangement. To this effect, move left-hand crane control lever forward. Reduce
engine speed to idle approx. 1 m before the telescope reaches its pin locking position (table
value "boom pin locking positions for emergency operation"); stop approx. 0.5 m before the pin
locking position is reached and cover the residual stroke with short movements. When the first ID
proximity switch appears, a residual stroke of approx. 10 cm is left. Stop tele cylinder by releasing the
crane control lever immediately.
6. Lock the tele cylinder. To this effect, actuate the rocker switch 51 to its central position.
7. Subsequently, perform short extension movements via the crane control lever (max. total travel of 20 cm,
or until the first ID proximity switch shuts off). If complete locking is not achieved even after this proce-
dure, retract the tele cylinder. To this effect, actuate the left-hand crane control lever backwards (max.
total travel 20 cm, or until the first ID proximity switch shuts off). If necessary, repeat this procedure.
8. If complete locking is signalled and the complete telescoping display ID appears, the telescope can be
retracted.
9. Release the telescope. To do so, actuate the left-hand crane control lever forward and extend by approx.
2 cm. If the cylinder length transmitter has failed, watch the cable drum on the boom underside.

(cont'd.) 6.4.2.1 Retracting the boom in manual mode

10. Unlock the telescope; to this effect, actuate the rocker switch 51 down and actuate rocker tip switch 50
until the telescope is completely unlocked.
11. If complete unlocking is not achieved, proceed once more as described as of item 9. If complete
unlocking is not achieved even after several attempts, the telescope must be locked once more. To do
so, move rocker switch 51 to central position while actuating the left-hand crane control lever several
times briefly to the rear while the engine is running at idle. Then, proceed again as described as of
item 9.
12. If the telescope is completely unlocked, it can be retracted; to this end, move left-hand crane control
lever back until the telescope has reached its final position. Reduce engine speed to idle approx. 1 m
before reaching the end position.
13. Lock the telescope; to this effect, move rocker tip switch 51 to its central position.
14. Retract the pin from the tele cylinder; to this effect, move rocker switch 51 upwards and actuate rocker
tip switch 50, until complete releasing of the pin lock is signalled. After all telescopes have been
retracted, continue as described under as of 15. Otherwise, proceed again as described as of item 5.
15. Retract tele cylinder completely; to this effect, move left-hand crane control lever to the rear until the
cylinder has been retracted.
16. Pin-fasten tele cylinder in a tele section (refer to items 6 and 7).
17. Shut off the engine, switch the ignition off.
18. Switch the emergency control off; to do so, actuate the rocker switch 52 upwards.
19. Start the engine.
Items 15 to incl. 18 must be executed to re-initialize the telescoping control.

When the ignition is switched on again and the engine is started, the ASLI program is re-started. Items 17 to
18 must be performed to start the ASLI program.

6.4.3 Interruption of telescoping sequence

During the telescoping procedure, the tip switch “interruption of telescoping sequence T" in the left-hand
crane control lever can be actuated to interrupt telescoping.

- Tip switch "T" actuated while extending the telescopes:

The Telestop icon appears.

The current telescope is extended completely. Telescoping is finished if the current telescope no longer
appears in black (backlit) on the display.

(cont'd.) 6.4.3 Interruption of telescoping sequence

- Tip switch "T" actuated while retracting the telescopes:

The Telestop icon appears.

The current telescope is retracted completely. The tele cylinder is completely extended and pin-fastened in
the next tele section. End of the telescoping procedure.

Subsequently, retracting or extending the telescopes can be continued by actuating the crane control lever
again.

6.4.4 Correction of pin fastening

If complete pin fastening is not detected at the end of a telescoping movement, the icon
"telescope correction" appears.

- Actuate the tip switch "T" to initiate the correction.

DANGER If the correction is performed during the extending procedure, the telescope is first retracted
by approx. 10 cm, which causes the load to move downwards.

Once correction is completed, the telescoping sequence interruption is active, i.e. the crane control lever
must be set briefly into its neutral position to continue the telescoping procedure.

6.4.5 Sensor error in tele section

When sensor errors have been detected, the system should only be switched off if the tele section is pin-
fastened. Otherwise, it might be necessary to retract the tele section by hand before operation can be
continued.

If a sensor error occurs between the last tele movement and the moment the system is switched off, it may
also be necessary - depending on the operating state of the tele section - to retract the section by hand
before operation can be continued.

The sensor errors are subdivided into two groups:

6.4.5.1 ID errors

If an ID error occurs, the icon ID error appears. (Refer to part G2 Superstructure "Operation
of the Automatic Safe Load Indicator").

If a sensor triggers the error, the crane remains fully functional.


If sensors on both sides of the telescope trigger the error, refer to “tele stop” and “emergency control” as per
item 6.4.2.

6.4.5.2 Locking errors

If a “locking error” occurs, the icon "locking error" is displayed. (Refer to part G2
Superstructure "Operation of the Automatic Safe Load Indicator").

Locking errors are reset if the system is switched off.

If a sensor triggers the error, the telescoping speed is limited to 50%.


If sensors on both sides of the telescope trigger the error, refer to “tele stop” and “emergency control” as per
item 6.4.2.

6.5 Slewing the superstructure

Move left-hand crane control lever gently


to the right - superstructure swings to the right
to the left - superstructure swings to the left.

DANGER Slewing the superstructure is only admissible while the crane is stabilized by
outriggers.
- Otherwise, the crane might tip over. -

DANGER The swing brake must be in automatic mode. Otherwise, the superstructure is not
braked automatically.

The green pilot lamp 17 "slewing gear locked" must not be lit.

- If necessary, pull the locking pin out of its lock assembly and put it to its upper position.

DANGER Before starting any swing movement, make sure that there are no
obstacles in the swing area.

The swing movement must be initiated and decelerated gently.

- While the swing brake is engaged, the movement is automatically


decelerated when the crane control lever is returned to central
position "0".
or:
while the swing brake is released (free wheeling), by gentle
deceleration via the swing mechanism foot-brake pedal.

ATTENTION When the brake is released, the swing movement


must be decelerated to standstill via the footbrake
pedal; only now may the swing brake be engaged
by operation of the rocker switch 1.

The swing speed can be controlled depending on the travel of the


crane control lever and by varying the engine speed.

Fig. 1

DANGER If the superstructure is slewed and decelerated abruptly, the load may start to
oscillate. The greater the load, or the greater the boom length, the lower the speed
must be at which slewing is commenced/decelerated.

ATTENTION The swing parking brake may only be released for slewing the superstructure.
In all the other working situations, the swing parking brake must remain engaged.

NOTE During crane work "free on wheels, to the rear", the pin locking device must always be
engaged. The superstructure must not be swung while a load is attached, as the
slewing gear is not shut off by the ASLI.

6.6 Counterweights

) Important instructions to be observed


before commencing assembly and disassembly. (
zBefore the counterweight units are picked up or deposited, the vehicle must be supported by
outriggers and aligned in horizontal position, as specified.
zBefore commencing a slewing movement, make sure that the ballast cylinders are completely
retracted.
zThere must not be any persons or objects in the swing range - risk of accidents.
z When picking up the counterweights from the chassis, make sure that the counterweight cylinders
are inserted in the bore-holes of the counterweights without touching them. The boom should be
raised to approx. 30°. If necessary, check visually.
zBefore picking up, depositing the counterweights or slewing the superstructure, the operator must
sound a warning signal.
zThe counterweight units required for crane work must correspond precisely to the load chart in
question; there is a risk of accidents otherwise.
zWhen the basic boom is elevated and counterweights are mounted to the superstructure, the
outriggers must be fully extended; otherwise there is a risk of the superstructure tipping towards
the ballast side while it is being slewed.
zCounterweights which are transported by an auxiliary vehicle must be located as close as possible
to the supported chassis, so that they can be picked up with the crane's bottom block. To this
effect, a second crane may be used.
zThe legal regulations regarding “ropes and hosting gear” in force in the country where the crane is
to be registered must be observed.
zTo pick up or deposit counterweight units which have been transported by auxiliary vehicles using
the crane's bottom block, the pertaining "set-up program" must be programmed. The working radii
and boom lengths specified in it must not be exceeded. Risk of overturning, i.e. risk of accidents.
zDamaged counterweight units or retaining clips must not be used; they might fall to the ground and
involve a risk of accidents.
z The retaining clips are used to secure the weight units suspended from the superstructure.
zCounterweight units of other crane carriers must not be used.
zWhen depositing partial counterweights on the chassis, the locking pin must be actuated to secure
them better.
zWhen the counterweights are deposited, no ropes, wooden bars etc. must be located between
them, which would prejudice the safe support of the counterweights.
There is a risk of accidents due to slipping of weights.
zBefore commencing driving operation, check that the deposited counterweights are safely
fastened.
There is a risk of accidents due to slipping of weights.
zOnce crane work is finished, to prepare the crane for on-road travel, taking account of the legally
admissible axle loads, partial counterweights must be dismounted from the superstructure and
deposited on the chassis in the counterweight rest, or, with the fly jib mounted, transported on an
auxiliary vehicle. (For further details, refer to part B2, item 6.6.8 “Counterweight distribution
according to rig arrangement”).
zFor reasons regarding vehicle registration, the crane may only participate in public road traffic
when its rig arrangement has been changed accordingly.
(Refer to illustration of the weight versions according to EC approval, item 6.6.8).

6.6.1 Picking up counterweights

Counterweights which are transported by an auxiliary vehicle can be picked up by the crane itself, and
deposited in the counterweight rest of the chassis.

DANGER It is essential that the safety provisions in Chapter B0 are complied with to avoid
accidents.
Make sure that the Load Chart Counterweight Set-Up Program is used.
The counterweight elements may only be attached to the fastening points provided to
this effect.
When picking up or removing individual counterweights, there is a risk of crushing
between the counterweight elements and the vehicle components, especially when
swinging the superstructure.
When counterweights are lifted and lowered to the chassis, they must neither be
suspended aslant nor swing. There is a risk of accidents and of damage to vehicle
components.
The counterweights must be stowed safely and firmly in the counterweight rest.
Stowing counterweight elements in the counterweight rest of the chassis requires the
help of another well-instructed person. The crane operator must be in constant eye
contact with that person.
Before swinging the superstructure and before taking up crane work, the crane
operator must ensure that this person has left the crane and its working area.
The crane has been supported by outriggers as specified (see “Notes referring to the
Load Charts”).

- Fasten counterweights (1) to the eyelets (3)


provided to this effect using the approved, suitable
load securing devices, and lift them onto the
chassis.
- Carefully lower the counterweights (1) onto the
chassis as shown in the drawing. The centering
bore-holes of the counterweights must slip onto the
centering pins (2).

6.7 Work involving metallic ropes

• On principle, the maximum admissible load bearing capacities of ropes must not be exceeded.
• When attaching ropes, make sure that the spreading angle of 120° is not exceeded. (The spreading angle
is the angle included by the ropes). In this case, the angle of inclination is 60°.
• With an angle of inclination of 60°, the tractive force, e.g. in the load securing ropes, has doubled. In this
case, the ropes must be designed for twice the load rating.

• Check ropes for wear, breakage of wires and breakage of a strand. Check the fastening of the rope socket.
• Never use old, cut-off load-lifting ropes as load-securing ropes.
• When attaching loads with sharp edges, make sure that rope protective devices are used, e.g. wooden
devices, to prevent the rope from being damaged.

DANGER Make sure that metallic ropes are not knotted.

• Precise specifications concerning the application and the design of ropes are laid down for Germany in the
"Guidelines for ropes used for hoisting applications".
• The end connections of ropes must correspond to the application concerned.

Moreover, the legal regulations of the country where the machine is to be used must be observed.

For "Care to the rope", refer to part "C2-6", item 6.6

6.7.1 Rope reeving

The number of rope falls used depends on the load to be lifted.

The lifting and lowering speeds of the bottom block are necessarily
reduced by the same number by which the rope falls are increased.

The weights of the bottom block, the jib in transport position, the load-
securing ropes etc. are part of the load and must be deducted from the
lifting capacities.

The rope socket is fastened depending on the desired number of rope


falls.

with an even number of rope falls


on the boom head (Fig. 1),
Fig 1

with an odd number of rope falls


on the bottom block (Fig. 2).

ATTENTION Pin (3) must always be inserted in the direction of


the arrow, and be secured by the spring clip (4).
Otherwise, there is a risk of collision.

ATTENTION With all rope reeving arrangements, the rope end


must be guided through the releasing weight of the
hoist limit switch before it is secured to the rope
socket.

Fig 2

6.7.2 Rope fastening

When the mobile crane is equipped with its original components, a winch rope
with steel wire rope clamp (1) and a rope socket (2) are provided.
In the case of an even number of rope falls, the rope socket is fastened to the
boom head; in the case of an odd number of rope falls, it is fastened to the
bottom block (refer to item 6.7.1).
The steel wire rope clamp of the winch rope is attached in the rope socket as
shown in the illustration. If the locking pin is inserted (3) in the direction of the
arrow (refer to item 6.7.1, Fig. 1 and 2) and fastened to the boom head or the
bottom block, it is ensured that the steel wire rope clamp cannot be detached
from the rope socket. Once the pin has been inserted in the direction of the
arrow (refer to item 6.7.1, Fig. 1 and 2), it is essential to secure it by means of
the spring clip (4).

ATTENTION When installing a new rope socket or winch rope, make sure to use only original
TADANO FAUN spare parts (refer to data marked on the rope socket).

To enable also the use of conventional lifting ropes (without steel wire rope clamp), a conventionally
designed rope socket is also provided with the crane (rope end clamp) (refer to item 6.7.2.1).

B2-6 Crane movements in no-load condition

6.7.2.1 Conventional rope socket (rope end clamp)

If a conventional rope socket is used, the rope must be fastened as described below:

The rope end is fastened to the bottom block (in case of an odd
number of rope falls) or to the boom head (in case of an even number
of rope falls) using a rope socket.

As the rope socket (2) is actually a connecting device which is only


closed safely when subject to traction, the free rope end should be
secured against pulling through even if a rope key (3) with self-locking
function is provided.

The following important instructions must be observed:


• Insert the rope always so that the pulling rope moves in the traction
axis of the rope socket (Fig. item "A").
Should the rope be inserted incorrectly, it would be subject to
kinking, breaking and premature wear.

• It is not admissible to use implements as securing devices by means


of which the free rope end is connected so that force is transmitted
directly to the rope fall carrying the load.

• After the rope socket has been pin-fastened to the boom head or to
the bottom block, make sure that the load is gradually increased,
until the rope key has reached its end position.

correct incorrect

DANGER Avoid jerky load situations before the rope key is definitely fitted.

6.7.3 Placing the rope in the bottom block

NOTE The bottom block (1) comprises two sheet metal plates
(2 and 3) which can be folded off so that the winch
rope can be positioned.

To place the winch rope, remove the two split rivets (4 and 5).
Pull the two pins (6 and 7) out of the bottom block and fold down the sheet
metal plates at the sides.
After positioning the winch rope, fold the two plates on the left and right
back in place, insert the two pins and position the split rivets.

6.7.4 Mounting the releasing weight to the rope

After rope reeving has been finished and the rope socket has been secured to
the boom head or the bottom block, depending on the number of rope falls, the
releasing weight must be mounted to the rope again.
The releasing weight (1 and 1a) consists of two halves with a retaining device
(2).

- Fasten the shackle (3) of the chain in the thimble (4) of the hoist limit switch.
- Arrange the two halves of the releasing weight around the rope and secure
them so that the pins of one half of the weight can be inserted into the
boreholes of the other half of the weight.
- Press the weight halves together and push the retaining device (2) over the
releasing weight.
- Attach the snap hook (5) in the first chain link above the retaining device.

6.7.5 Examples for rope reeving

Depending on the required hoisting load, the required bottom block and the number of rope falls required for
the case in question are indicated in the "Notes referring to the load chart".

The appropriate number of winch rope falls required must be arranged as follows:

NOTE As far as possible, the rope should be arranged in the bottom block - especially if few
rope falls are used - so that the bottom block is suspended vertically (refer to example
with four rope falls).

The winch rope is arranged as follows, depending on the number of rope falls required:

6.7.6 Attaching the bottom block for on-road travel

For on-road travel, the bottom block must be attached and secured in the front bumper crossmember
as specified.

- The machine is supported by outriggers.


- Depending on the rig arrangement concerned, either retract all tele sections completely or extend tele
section I by approx. 300 mm (see item B2-6.6.7).
- Raise the bottom block near the boom head.
- Swing the superstructure forward, in driving direction; engage the swing brake.
- Raise the basic mast via the boom elevation, until the bottom block is suspended vertically in front of the
cabin in the chassis.
Attach the rope loop in the towbar coupling (3).
- Lower the hook block carefully, until the hook (1) can be attached in the rope loop (2).
- Stow the basic mast in its end position, while winding up the winch rope (4) slowly and carefully until the
rope loop and the winch rope are no longer slack.

Attention To prevent damage to the bumper cross-member, do not tighten the rope more than
absolutely necessary. If necessary, have the procedure watched by an assistant.

6.7.7 Detaching the bottom block for crane operation

- Release the rope tension while raising the boom via


the boom elevation, until the hook of the bottom block
can be detached from the rope loop (2).
- Raise the hook block carefully.
- Stow the rope loop in the tool box.

NOTE Moreover, within the scope of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (in
Germany: StVZO), the entries in the expert opinion required to obtain the operating
license must be complied with.
Please observe any specific regulations of the country where the machine is to be
used which might differ from those mentioned above.

Crane movements in no-load condition B2-6

6.8 Inspection of the safety equipment

DANGER Before starting any crane work, make sure that the entire safety equipment of the
crane is checked for proper working order.

6.8.1 Inspection of the automatic safe load indicator (ASLI) and of its components

- Check the spring-loaded cable drums on the boom for proper working order.
- Check the length transmitter cables for damage.
- Check the ASLI indicator unit for proper working order (for further details, please refer to part G2
Superstructure, description of the automatic safe load indicator ASLI).

6.8.2 ASLI override key-actuated switch (Item B2-2.1, Pos. 13)

DANGER The key-actuated push-button may be used exclusively in case of a


malfunction of the system, in order to stop operation without delay;
by no means, however, to work with the crane in overload condition.
Overriding the system during normal crane operation can cause
serious damage and tremendous risk to persons and equipment.

The instruments of the indicator unit and the visual-acoustic warning signal are also operative after
overriding has been effected.

6.8.2.1 Warning device for "ASLI override" condition**)

If the ASLI override feature is activated by means of the key-actuated pushbutton (item B2-2.1, pos. 13), a
signal sounds outside of the cabin as long as the override condition is existing.

6.8.3 Inspection of the hoist limit switch

The hoist limit switch serves as a shut-off device to prevent the bottom block from knocking against the
boom head. The shut-off function must be checked before each crane operation by the working movement
"bottom block UP". The bottom block can be lowered as the control lever is actuated to "bottom block
DOWN".

NOTE The expression "hoist limit" is a crane-specific term which refers to a state which occurs
when the bottom block touches the boom head.
If this condition is not prevented, the lifting rope may break, causing the load to be dropped.
The "hoist limit" state may occur when the load is lifted up to the boom head, by lowering the boom
via the boom elevation or by extending the telescopic elements while the length of the winch rope
wound off is not sufficient.

**) According to the regulations in the United Kingdom

2003-01 45/46
B2-6 Crane movements in no-load condition

6.8.4 Key-actuated tip switch "Overriding hoist limit switch / set-up program"

Overriding the hoist limit switch for controlled further raising of the bottom block is possible
via the key-actuated tip switch 55 "Overriding hoist limit switch".

- To override the hoist limit switch, turn the key-actuated tip switch to the right.

DANGER This override function may only be actuated by authorized staff in cases of emergency,
and must be returned to normal position immediately afterwards. If this instruction is
not observed, this may result in material damage and/or damage to persons.

6.8.4.1 Key-actuated tip switch "Overriding in set-up program"

- To override the ASLI in the set-up program, e.g. extending the telescope, turn key-actuated switch (item
B2-2.1, pos. 13) to the right.

DANGER Overriding the system via the key-actuated push-buttons (part B2-2.1, item. 13) and 55
during normal operation involves an enormous risk of damage and incalculable
danger for persons and material.

6.8.5 Inspection of the rope limit switch

The rope limit switch which is mounted to the rope winch disconnects the winch drum rotation during the
working movement "bottom block down", when the rope is unwound. This may occur, e.g. in case the
maximum number of rope falls is used and with the telescopes extended. At least three safety rope windings
must remain on the rope drum. The rope can be wound up again by actuation of the control lever "bottom
block UP".

6.8.6 Over-unwinding cutout device for auxiliary winch**)

The over-unwinding cutout device prevents the wire rope from being damaged or improperly wound which
would be caused by lowering the hook block excessively and extra wraps of the wire rope required on the
winch drum cannot be maintained. When the wire rope left on the drum is reduced to 3 wraps, the over-
unwinding cutout function is activated and the operation toward the critical side (lowering the rope drum)
automatically stops.

DANGER When the bottom block has been removed, the winch rope may be wound up only
until its end reaches the hoist winch. If the winch rope is wound over the hoist winch
without a load being fastened, the setting of the dead-windings-on-the-rope detecting
switch is changed. The cutout device will not function correctly. Once winding it up to
the end has happened, readjust the detecting switch position.

Crane operation with a load fixed to the boom B2-7

7 Crane operation with a load fixed to the boom

After the crane operator has read the preceding chapters and familiarized himself with the control elements,
the safety instructions and the warning devices, he may start to perform crane work with the superstructure.

The crane operator must especially observe all the instructions for the various working conditions
described below and the "Notes concerning the load charts".

• Before commencing each crane operation, the operating safety of the machine must be checked.
• The safety instructions according to part B.0 must be adhered to.

In the load charts, the ranges indicating the strength of the components and the stability have been identified
by separating lines.
The ratings indicated above the separating line are based on the strength of the components (danger of
breaking in case of overload);
and the ratings below that line are based on the stability (danger of crane tipping in case of overload).

7.1 Crane operation with the machine stabilized by outriggers

The following actions and measures are required for crane operation "stabilized by outriggers".
• Check the ground condition.
• Block the suspension and align the machine stabilized by outriggers in horizontal position, according to the
instructions (watch spirit levels). The wheels must be clear of the ground.
• Make sure that the applicable load chart and the appropriate code no. are entered into the ASLI if the
outrigger beams are extended to half their supporting base.
• The weight of the load to be lifted must have been determined.
• The bottom block and the arrangement of rope falls must be dimensioned sufficiently.
• The admissible values specified in the load charts must be complied with precisely.
• The weights of the bottom block, the load securing ropes, the crossbeams etc. must be deducted from the
lifting capacities.
• The program selected in the ASLI (code no.) must be exactly identical with the desired working conditions.
• The wind speed must not exceed the values specified in the Notes referring to the load charts.
• The load surface exposed to the wind must not exceed the values specified in the Notes referring to the
load charts.
• The maximum admissible load must not be exceeded.
• The telescoping status indicated as a percentage value (%) in the load charts is controlled via the ASLI.
• The crane movements (speeds) must be selected so that work is effected without jerking, i.e. as smoothly as possible.
• Diagonal pulling is not admissible.
• Lifting the load and actuating the boom elevation with the load fixed to the boom is only admissible within
the range of the values specified in the load charts.
• During crane work, the instruments, warning, indicator and pilot lamps and the ASLI indicator unit must
always be monitored.

2003-01 1/4
B2-7 Crane operation with a load fixed to the boom

(cont'd.) 7.1 Crane operation with the machine stabilized by outriggers

• All crane work is to be performed with the minimum working radius possible.
• It must be checked whether the boom extension or the twin folding jib are correctly mounted and whether
the ASLI program is set to the rig arrangement required in the case in question.

DANGER Excessively fast initiation of lifting, slewing, braking and actuation of the boom
elevation may cause the load to oscillate. The greater the load, or the greater the
boom length, the more carefully the motion in question must be initiated.

! Perform all crane work with due care and attention. !

7.2 Crane operation "free on wheels"

For crane operation "free on wheels" (without outriggers), the following actions and measures are required:

• Perform work only on a level, solid ground free of inclinations (check ground quality and stability).
• Before slewing the superstructure to the rear, stabilize the vehicle by outriggers and swing superstructure
to the rear in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle while the telescopes are completely retraced, engage
the lock pin and apply the swing brake.
• Check tire pressure in all the tires; if necessary, inflate them to the specified pressure (the inflating
pressure is indicated in part "A2" or in the cabins).
• Lock the axle suspension and lower the vehicle (refer to items B1-4.7).

DANGER The yellow indicator lamp 15 "axle lock engaged" must be lit during crane operation.
If the pilot lamp is not lit, the suspension is not locked, or there is a fault in the axle
locking system.
In this case, work may only performed with the crane stabilized by outriggers;
however, all the wheels must be clear of the ground.

• The weight of the load to be lifted must have been determined.


• The bottom block and the arrangement of rope falls must be dimensioned sufficiently.
• The weights of the bottom block, the load securing ropes, the crossbeams etc. must be deducted from the
lifting capacities.
• During travelling, the following should be observed for safety reasons: extend outrigger beams and
outrigger cylinders as far as possible, place outrigger floats as close as possible to the ground.

ATTENTION When the ASLI program "free on wheels, to the rear" is selected, the ASLI switches off
the crane when the lock pin is removed. However, the swing mechanism is not shut
off.

• When the superstructure lock pin is not engaged, the program is not enabled.
• Select the ASLI program (code no.) (refer to load chart with the crane standing "free on wheels"). The
selected ASLI program must be identical with the desired rig arrangement.
• The telescoping status indicated as a percentage value (%) in the load chart is controlled via the ASLI.

Crane operation with a load fixed to the boom B2-7

(cont'd.) 7.2 Crane operation "free on wheels"

• Crane work must be performed with the boom extended to its shortest possible length.
• The crane movements (speeds) must be selected so that work is effected without jerking, i.e. as smoothly
as possible.
• Diagonal pulling is not admissible.
• Lifting the load and actuating the boom elevation with the load fixed to the boom is only admissible within
the range of the values specified in the load charts.
• When driving with a load fixed to the boom, secure the load so that it cannot oscillate.
• During crane work, the instruments, warning, indicator and pilot lamps and the ASLI indicator unit must
always be monitored.
• The crane may only be driven at creeping speed (observe "Driving instructions").

NOTE To minimize any risk of accidents, it is advisable to perform crane work - as far as
possible - while the machine is stabilized by outriggers, even if the load chart would
allow for work with the crane standing "free on wheels".

! All crane work must be performed with due care and attention. !

7.3 Driving with a load

Driving with a load requires maximum care and caution.

- Perform driving operation with a load only with the boom over-rear and the locking pin completely inserted.
- The vehicle must be lowered, and the suspension locked.

Extend the outrigger beams and keep the outrigger floats just above the ground, to the extent that this is
possible in view of the available space.
Secure the load so that it cannot oscillate.

DANGER Driving with a load is only permitted when the vehicle has been lowered completely,
the suspension locked and the axle oscillation engaged.

DANGER Driving with a load is only admissible at the most reduced speed in the gears 1 and 1R
(Refer also to Notes concerning the Load Chart).

If it is necessary to drive the machine from the superstructure, this operation may only be performed on a
level ground because of a poor visibility and stability.

DANGER Watch out for possible obstacles at higher levels while the boom is raised.

NOTE The front axle oscillation is only operative with the locking pin completely inserted
(boom "directed to the rear").

In case of failure or malfunctions of various control and operating elements, or in case of malfunctions of the
electric equipment, the functions which failed might be effected, e.g. via emergency controls. However, these
emergency control elements may only be used to complete the current crane movement and to reset the
crane to its former rig arrangement. Afterwards, the reason for the damage must be determined immediately
and the damage must be eliminated.

DANGER Emergency control elements must never be used instead of the controls for normal
operation. Any damage to the control and operating elements must be eliminated im-
mediately.

ATTENTION Do not actuate the push-button switches with rubber caps by means of sharp-edged
or pointed objects. Should the rubber caps be damaged, this may result in failure of

9 Operation in winter

Depending on the climatic conditions of the area where the crane is to be used, the weather conditions may
be more or less extreme during the winter months. Thus, the instructions mentioned below must definitely be
observed to ensure trouble-free and safe operation in winter.

DANGER Particular care is required when climbing up or using steps, ladders and platforms in
damp weather and snow.

• Access steps and platforms must be cleaned to remove dirt, oil, grease and smeary substances.
! Risk of slipping !

• Snow, frozen layers of snow and ice may form a dangerous coating on the boom surfaces, counterweights
and platforms of the superstructure.
! Risk of accidents !

• Snow and ice must be removed from the vehicle and the superstructure before the machine is set into
motion.

• Snow or lumps of ice which are blown down or which fall down during crane operation may endanger other
persons.
! Risk of accidents !

DANGER In case of extremely low freezing temperatures, do not touch metal surfaces with your
bare hands - danger of freezing to metal surfaces!

9.1 Engine
9.1.1 Engine oil

In order to ensure a sufficient lubrication in case the vehicle is to be started at low ambient temperatures, the
viscosity of the engine oil must be selected according to the ambient temperatures prevailing at the time
when the engine is started.
Refer to Operating Manual of engine manufacturer which is supplied with the vehicle!

9.1.2 Coolant

ATTENTION The engine must be filled with anti-corrosion - anti-freeze agent all the year round.

• The coolant must be checked for frost-proofness with a test instrument in good time before the cold
season.

• Normally, it must be frost-proof down to -37°C.


Refer to Operating Manual of engine manufacturer which is supplied with the vehicle!

0210_EN_FA043_B2_09_00_00
2003-01 1/4
B2-9 Operation in winter

9.1.3 Diesel fuels

In order to avoid operating malfunctions, the winter diesel fuel available on the market during the cold
season must be used. If only summer-type diesel fuel is available, or if winter-type diesel fuel is used at very
low ambient temperatures, a certain amount of petroleum, the quantity of which depends on the ambient
temperatures, must be added to the fuel in order to avoid segregation of paraffin.
Refer to Operating Manual of engine manufacturer which is supplied with the vehicle!

The approximate values for the amounts of additive are indicated in the operating manual of the engine
manufacturer.
There is a simple method to check the diesel fuel for its suitability at the prevailing low temperatures:

- Fill diesel fuel in a flask and expose it to the ambient temperatures. If flakes (paraffin) develop in the fuel, it
is only suited for operation at higher temperatures.

9.1.4 Starting the engine at low ambient temperatures

For the steps to be taken and for further details, please refer to the operating manual of the engine
manufacturer.

9.2 Hydraulic oil

At low ambient temperatures, the hydraulic oils recommended in part "C2” Inspection, Service and
Maintenance - Superstructure must be used.

If the oils to be used at the appropriate ambient temperatures approach the limits (values of max. 10°C
below the minimum temperature limit are admissible), the hydraulic oil can be warmed up without requiring a
change of the oil type.

The hydraulic oil can be warmed up approximately to service temperature in a very short time by "retracting
the boom elevation cylinder" (to its mechanical stop) or by repeated extending or retracting the telescopes.

The admissible service temperature is approx. 70-80°C.

ATTENTION Avoid relatively high engine speeds while the hydraulic oil is still cold. Allow the oil to
warm up at least until it reaches the lower service temperature level.

If the hydraulic system is filled e.g. with hydraulic oil HLP 68 or HLP 46, the oil type must be replaced by the
specified pressure fluids at low ambient temperatures.

0210_EN_FA043_B2_09_00_00
2/4 2003-01
Operation in winter B2-9

9.3 Batteries

Well-charged batteries are a prerequisite for cold-starting the engine.

At ambient temperatures lower than -30°C, when the machine has been standing in the open air for an
extended period of time without being operated (e.g. at night), the batteries must be heated or removed from
the vehicle and stored in a warm room.

In winter, the current consumption should be kept as low as possible.

Check the acid density and the acid level as described in part "C2 Service and Maintenance -
Superstructure".

Discharged batteries freeze at temperatures starting from only -10°C.

The instructions of the battery manufacturer must be observed.

9.4 Adjustable air vents

The adjustable air vents (refer to sect. B2-2.1, items 5 and 24) serve to direct the heated or fresh air flow.

9.5 Windshield washing system

During the winter months, a certain amount of anti-freeze agent for windshield washing systems, the quantity
of which depends on the temperature, must be added to the water of the windshield washing system.

11.1 Positioning the double ladder for mounting the jibs, and for access to the
crane superstructure

NOTE A double ladder is supplied with the vehicle for assembly and maintenance work on
the jib, or - provided the jib is folded to the boom - on the superstructure units. The
ladder is located below the driver's cab.

DANGER The ladder may only be positioned on solid, level ground. The safety instructions
provided for the use of ladders and access steps must be observed; otherwise, there
is a
RISK OF ACCIDENTS.

11.1.1 Fastening and securing the ladder on the vehicle:

- Slip the ladder (1) into the rear part of the angular
supports (2).

Note The struts (3) on the movable end of the


supports must be in full contact with a
rung of the ladder, to prevent the ladder
from slipping sideways.

- Attach eyelets of turnbuckle (a) in the locating cramps


(b), fold turnbuckles (4) down and secure them using
the catch lever.
- Fasten one of the two catch levers with the padlock
supplied with the machine.

DANGER Check the ladder at regular intervals for proper fastening and tight fit. Loss of the
ladder during travelling operation may result in serious accidents.

11.1.2 Positioning the ladder

11.2 Boom extension

The jib consists of a lattice-type basic section and an extending box-type 2nd section. The jib can be adjusted
to 3 angular positions.

DANGER If working from an elevated position is absolutely necessary, use a platform or the
double ladder supplied with the crane to prevent falling and to ensure safety.

DANGER For safety reasons, before starting driving or crane operation with the jib folded to the
basic boom, all pin connections, securing devices and fasteners on the jib and the
basic boom must be checked.
When crane work is performed with the jib folded to the boom in transport position, or
during work over the main boom with the jib mounted to the boom head, the lifting
capacities indicated in the load charts are reduced by the values indicated in the
notes referring to the load charts.

DANGER The necessary safety precautions must be taken to ensure that no obstacles are in the
slewing range or danger zone of the jib.
Take the necessary precautions to ensure that no one enters the area over which the
jib will swing.
Anyone standing in this area could be injured.

DANGER Picking up loads which are resting on the ground by raising the boom via the boom
elevation may result in overload to the jib, the winch rope or the crane overturning.
There is a risk of OVERTURNING and BREAKING!
This movement "boom elevation - up" is not stopped by the overload safety device.

The following steps must be performed and the following instructions


must be observed before mounting is commenced:

• The crane is supported by outriggers as specified.


• All tele sections are retracted completely.
• The superstructure has been swung backwards, if possible, and
the mechanical swing lock has been engaged.
● The swing brake is engaged.
● The boom is set to an angle of 0°.

• While mounting and dismounting the jib, and when changing its offset angle, make sure that the 2nd section
is retracted into the lattice-type mast, and secured with pins.

• The appropriate rig arrangement for attachment of the jib must have been keyed-in in the ASLI
(code no., refer to load charts), depending on the counterweight and the extension width.

11.10 Emergency control of superstructure via hydraulic motor in the chassis

DANGER On principle, the superstructure emergency mode is only admissible to reset the
crane from a working position to its former rig arrangement in case of malfunction of
the power supply.
To supply the superstructure hydraulic system in case of engine failure in the superstructure, failure of the hydraulic
pump or the superstructure electrical system, the oil supply can be ensured by means of hose pipes equipped with
quick-locking coupling devices via a hydraulic motor which is driven by the hydraulic system in the chassis.
Due to the different sizes of the quick-locking coupling devices, these cannot be confused on connection.
Attention In the case of specific crane work which may require quick utilisation of the
emergency control feature, oil supply to the emergency control system must be
ensured before such work begins. At the same time, all possible procedures for
resetting the superstructure to its former rig arrangement must be checked for proper
function.
When slewing the superstructure, pay attention to any connected hydraulic hoses.
DANGER Only hoisting gear 1 can be reset to its former rig arrangement via the emergency
control.
Persons may only be transported by means of hoisting gear 1.

11.10.2 Resetting the superstructure to its former rig arrangement

DANGER During superstructure emergency operation, any risks of overload or overturning to


which the crane might be exposed must be taken into account. Make sure that always
motions tending to reduce the load moment (lowering the load or raising the boom) are
performed, if possible. Retracting the telescopic boom is not possible.
While resetting the crane to its former rig arrangement, actuate the control levers
gently.
NOTE In emergency mode, as long as the superstructure power supply is available, the
information on the ASLI display remains visible and should be used to assess the
risk.
DANGER If there is a failure of the electrical power supply of the superstructure, the ASLI
information is no longer available. The prevailing risk must be judged on the basis of
other information.
Even if the electrical power supply is still available in superstructure emergency
mode, a dangerous motion (increasing the load moment) will not be stopped by the
automatic safe load indicator.
Prerequisite:
The hose connections between the chassis and the superstructure have been established.

11.15 Front-end pulley

The front-end pulley is always used with one rope fall; it is secured via the telescopic boom's ASLI program
for the counterweight actually mounted to the machine, and for the existing supporting base.
The total load to be lifted - consisting of the load securing equipment and the hook blocks at the front-end
pulley and the telescopic boom head, and of the load to be lifted at the front-end pulley - must not exceed the
maximum specified lifting capacities of the telescopic boom as indicated in the load charts for the prevailing
rig arrangement of the crane.

DANGER The appropriate code number of the telescopic boom according to the prevailing
crane configuration, as regards the counterweight and the supporting base, and the
number of rope falls "1" must be entered into the automatic safe load indicator.
Picking up loads deposited on the ground by lifting the boom via the derricking gear
may result in overload of the front-end pulley, of the hoisting rope or in overturning of
the crane.
This upward movement of the derricking gear is not stopped by the overload safety
device.

Attention The load and radius values appearing in the automatic safe load indicator (ASLI)
deviate slightly from the actual values, as the ASLI does not take account of the
geometric conditions of the front-end pulley.

DANGER When working with two winch ropes, make sure that the ropes are guided via the rope
pulleys as shown under item 11.15.1, Fig. 2. Otherwise, there is a risk that the winch
ropes might cross and chafe.

11.15.1 Mounting the front-end pulley to the boom head

• Fold down the bearing bracket as it is shown in Fig. 2, item


12.

• Pull out the spring clip (Fig. 1, item 1) so that the locking pin
(Fig. 1, item 2) of the front-end pulley can be released from
the boom head.

• Swing the front-end pulley (Fig. 1, item 2) into the support


on the boom head and secure it by means of the spring clip
(Fig. 1, item 1).

This measure should be taken to ensure that the locking pin


and the spring clip are not lost. Fig. 1

11.15.1 Mounting the front-end pulley to the boom head (cont'd.)

• Fasten the front-end pulley with pin (Fig. 2, item 4) to the


boom head and lock it using the spring clip (Fig. 2, item 5).

• Place the rope of the second hoist winch (auxiliary winch)


over the front-end pulley and lock it using the securing yokes
(Fig. 2, item 8).

• Fasten the releasing weight to the hoisting rope of the


second hoist winch and the hoist limit switch (Fig. 2, item 9).

• Pull electric plug-and-socket connector from the blind socket


(Fig. 2, item 10) and insert it into the plugbox (Fig. 2, item
11).

• Before the plug-and-socket connector can be inserted, the


blind plug must be removed from the plugbox (Fig. 2, item
11).

• To store the blind plug, insert it into the blind socket (Fig. 2,
item 10).

• After work with the second hoist winch has been finished,
reverse the above procedure to reset the front-end pulley to
its initial state.
Fig. 2

11.15.2 Operation with two hooks and the boom extension

DANGER A double ladder must be positioned at the superstructure to enable placing the rope
of the 2nd winch. The double ladder is located below the driver's cab and secured by
means of supports. (Refer to part B, item 11.1).

Provided that the crane is equipped with two hoisting gears, the use of the boom extension or of the
front-end pulley offers the possibility to locate loads accurately which are positioned accordingly, or
to turn loads.
Prerequisite: The boom extension or the front-end pulley is mounted correctly to the telescopic boom head
as described, and the crane is stabilized by outriggers as specified.

DANGER On principle, loads must be lifted or lowered by means of the component featuring the
least load bearing capacity. Thus, the load must always be lifted clear or lowered
completely by means of this component.
The overload safety device must be set to the correct ASLI code number which
corresponds to the configuration of the boom extension, and to the counterweight and
the supporting base.

The lifting capacities at the boom extension which are admissible in this case correspond to the maximum
lifting capacities indicated in the appropriate load charts for the boom extension. The total load incl. hook
block and all the load securing equipment must not exceed the lifting capacities specified for the rig
arrangement of the crane.

11.15.2 Operation with two hooks and the boom extension (cont'd.)

DANGER The number of rope falls attached to the boom head must never be smaller than the
number of rope falls attached to the boom extension. On principle, it must be at least
identical with or greater than the number of rope falls fixed to the boom extension. If
this regulation is not observed, this may cause failure of the hoisting gear or of the
hoisting rope of the telescopic boom head.

On principle, each load may only be lifted completely clear of the ground with the hook which is at the
greatest horizontal distance from the center of rotation.

DANGER When the hook block at the telescopic boom head is put under load condition while a
load is being lifted, incorrect load values will appear on the automatic safe load
indicator.

DANGER When working with main and auxiliary winch, the winch rope of the main winch must
always be guided over the boom head, and the winch rope of the auxiliary winch must
be guided over the boom extension (single top, heavy-lift fly jib, etc.). Otherwise, there
is a risk that the winch ropes might cross and chafe.

When a load is suspended on both hook blocks, the telescopic boom must on no account be lowered
via the derricking gear.

All crane work must be performed with the required care.

1. Use the 2nd winch to lift the 1. Use the second winch to lower
load clear of the ground the load
2. Use the main winch to hoist the 2. Use the main winch to deposit the
load load

General Instructions concerning Service and Maintenance C1-1

1 General Instructions concerning Service and Maintenance


Regular cleaning, careful servicing and maintenance will ensure that your machine is ready to work perfectly
through a long lifetime.

All the operations required have been described in the following part "C" and must be effected at the
intervals specified in the maintenance schedules for the chassis and the superstructure.

Service and maintenance work may only be performed by qualified, well-trained and authorized specialist
staff.

These instructions do not include any particular work on the engine and the gearbox requiring special
knowledge. For further details, please refer to the enclosed Operating Manuals of the manufacturers of the
assemblies in question.

The machine must be cleaned thoroughly at least every 3 months. At the same time, rust should be removed
from all defective parts of the paint, which must be re-painted.

When the vehicle is out of operation for an extended period of time, all metallic parts must be greased to
protect them against corrosion. Corrosion protection must be ensured especially as regards the piston rods
of the working cylinders.

1.1 Before starting service and maintenance work

Absolute cleanness and reasonable planning are prerequisites to all work.

• Maintenance work may only be performed while the engine is at a standstill.


• Protect the machine against rolling away.
• Use only non-fibrous cloth for all work to be carried out, in particular at the hydraulic system.
• Check oil levels only while the machine is standing in horizontal position.

NOTE During oil level inspections, the safety prescriptions according to § 6 "Regulation for
the prevention of accidents to drive assemblies" must be observed. (Please observe
any specific regulations of the country where the machine is to be used which might
differ from those mentioned above.)

• Oil changes should only be effected when the systems and assemblies have their service temperature.

DANGER Danger of scalding in case of uncontrolled seepage of hot lubricant or hydraulic oil.

DANGER Systems, such as: hydraulic system, piping, radiator, compressed air tanks,
expansion vessels, pressure accumulators etc., must be depressurized before they
are opened.
• In case of a visible loss of oil, check the oil level of the assembly in question at shorter intervals; determine
the reason and eliminate it. Check the hose clamps possibly installed for tight fit at regular intervals; if
necessary, re-tighten them.
• Disconnect the batteries before performing work at the electrical equipment during which tools etc. might
get into contact with the electrical equipment. First disconnect the negative, then the positive terminal
(when reconnecting, start with the positive terminal, subsequently connect the negative terminal).
• Before greasing, clean the lubricators; then lubricate according to the maintenance schedule.
• Grease all joints, all movable and rotating parts which are not equipped with grease nipples using an oil
can, according to the maintenance schedule.

2001-06 1/4
C1-1 General Instructions concerning Service and Maintenance

cont'd.: 1.1 Before starting service and maintenance work

• Eliminate any leakage in the piping systems immediately.


• When mounting covers, plugscrews etc., pay attention to good condition and perfect fit of the seals, if
necessary, replace sealing element.
• All filter elements and/or filter cartridges must be replaced at the specified intervals, unless cleaning is
expressly admitted.
• If the oil or grease type is to be changed for technical or operational reasons, make sure that only the
recommended qualities and viscosities are selected.
• Only use clean oils and lubricants stored in closed vessels.
• For filling and transferring oil, use only clean vessels; the use of a fine-meshed strainer is recommended.
• Use only clean tools when handling lubricants.
• Before re-using fastening and securing elements, e.g. screws and bolts, nuts, spring washers, discs etc.,
check and, if necessary, replace them. Do not re-use lock nuts.
• Before disassembly, mark all cables and lines to prevent them from being mixed up on reassembly once
repair has been completed. Check for proper working order. Check compressed air, hydraulic oil and
coolant lines for leakage.

1.2 Welding and straightening work

Welding work, thermal treatment and straightening work on supporting components are absolutely
prohibited (refer to part E-1, item 1).
As high-tensile steels are used, there is a risk that the material properties might be lost due to inexpert
welding work, thermal treatment or straightening work.

1.3 Inspection of screw couplings

Check the tight fit of all connecting and securing bolts, incl. the assemblies, as well as all hose clamps at
regular intervals of 3 months; if necessary, re-tighten them.
When checking these components for tight fit, observe the specified tightening torques.

The corresponding standard „FN 10009“ referring to tightening torques is available via the TADANO-FAUN
After-Sales Service.

1.4 Checking the hydraulic system and its screw couplings for leakage

Leaking hydraulic screw couplings - if they have come loose - may only be retightened when the system is
depressurized. If safely fastened screw couplings are leaking, the screw coupling must be replaced.
Damaged pipes must not be repaired but replaced by new ones.

Hydraulic hoses and hose pipes must be checked at regular weekly intervals and replaced immediately if
damage - e.g. abrasions, cuts, fissures, deformations are detected or they move out of their fittings, so that
damp spots are visible.
The utilization period of hose pipes should not exceed 6 years as from the date of commissioning (refer to
DIN 20 066, ZH 1/74) (please observe any specific regulations of the country where the machine is to be
used, which might differ from the value mentioned before).

0230_EN_FA043_C1_01_00_00
2/4 2001-06
General Instructions concerning Service and Maintenance C1-1

1.5 Cleaning the machine

In order to avoid damage to the electrical equipment, the brake pipes and the paint, the machine should be
cleaned during the first three months using cold water only. After three months, water temperatures in
excess of 70°C should be avoided; aggressive cleaning substances should not be used.
Spray nozzles should not be closer to the vehicle than 30 cm. Do not use "Power Jet" nozzles.
When the machine is cleaned using a high-pressure cleaning unit (steam jet unit), make sure that the steam
jet is neither directed immediately on rubber or electrical components, nor on joints and the length
compensation of propeller shafts and breathers. Maximum pressure of cleaning units = 80 bar. Preferably,
fan nozzles should be used.

1.6 After having finished service and maintenance work

After having finished these operations, re-install the protective equipment properly. Check the machine for
proper operation.

Attention When disposing of oil, grease, detergents or components containing oil, e.g. filters,
observe the provisions for pollution control. Used oil must be disposed of according
to the applicable requirements.

Besides, please observe the “Instructions for avoiding damage" specified under item 4.1 of the
Preface.

1.7 Configuration of electronic components

In the case of replacement of the engine, gearbox and ABV electronics (control system) and on replacing the
engine and the gearbox, the control parameters must be configured anew. Such work may only be
performed by well-trained specialists.
For further information, please contact the TADANO FAUN After-Sales Service.

Maintenance intervals C1-2

2 Maintenance intervals

The maintenance intervals depend on the vehicle’s operating conditions; the next maintenance will be due
after:

- a certain number of operating hours,


- a certain number of kilometers traveled, or
- a defined period of time.

NOTE The value which is reached first shall be decisive.

The kilometers traveled are indicated in the tachograph in the driver’s cab (see item B1-4.6.6), and the
operating hours in the hourmeter (see item B1-4.6.2.9).

Maintenance work which must be performed earlier than the regular maintenance works, or in a different
fashion, is indicated in the maintenance schedule in the column “Initial maintenance after”, e.g.
commissioning of the machine or replacement of components.
After these maintenance works have been effected, the column „Regular maintenance every 125 / 250 /
500 / 1000 / 2000 / operating hours“ shall apply.

Maintenance work which must be performed daily or before commissioning the vehicle has been marked by
an “X” in the maintenance schedule in the column “Daily, before start-up”.

The number of operating hours expiry of which calls for the specified maintenance work to be performed
repeatedly have been marked by an “X“ in the columns “Regular maintenance every 125 / 250 / 500 /
1000 / 2000 / operating hours”.

e.g. “every 500 operating hours“ i.e. after 500, 1000, 1500 etc. operating hours have been reached,
“every 2000 operating hours“ i.e. after 2000, 4000, 6000 etc. operating hours have been reached.

NOTE The maintenance intervals apply for machines which are subject to normal operating
and environmental conditions. If the machines are used in particular applications, the
maintenance intervals must be adapted to the prevailing operating conditions.

NOTE Whenever major maintenance work is performed, it is obvious that also maintenance
work required to be done at shorter intervals which coincides with this date must be
performed as well.

NOTE In the inspection and maintenance plans, item C1-27 to C1-30, the maintenance works
are shown in terms of assemblies.
If the test and maintenance schedules call for tests on several identical parts (e.g.
axles, propeller shafts, suspension cylinders etc.), only one item is positioned in
terms of example for the assembly.

3.7.2 Cleaning the filter cartridge

Attention If no new cleaner element is available, the cartridge can be cleaned in cases of
emergency.
The cleaner cartridge must NEVER cleaned by washing, brushing or knocking it
against a hard surface to remove the dirt. Blowing-out is only admissible in cases of
emergency, making sure that no dust gets to the inside of the filter cartridge.

Attention Cleaning an element in case of an emergency does not affect the usual replacement
intervals.

- To this effect, a tube with a 90° bent end section should be placed on the
compressed-air gun. It must be long enough to reach down to the bottom of the
cartridge. Clean cleaner cartridge carefully by blowing from the inside to the
outside using dry compressed air (max. 5 bar), by moving the tube in the
cleaner cartridge up and down repeatedly, until no more dust is raised.

Attention The tip of the tube must not get too close to the filter paper.

Attention Before reinstalling the cleaned cleaner element, check it carefully for damage to the
paper bellows and to the seals.

- After every cleaning operation, check every pleat of the paper bellows for
damage (cracks and holes), using an inspection lamp (flashlight). To ensure
that minor defects are also detected, this check should not be performed in
direct sunlight, but e.g. in a dark room.
- Any damage is shown by a bright flare.
- Check rubber filter seal for crushing and damage.

Attention Any damaged filter cartridges must be replaced.

3.7.3 Check air intake pipes and hoses

- Check all hose connections between the filter and the engine and the charge air hoses for tight fit. Use
screw-type hose clamps only.

- Check hoses and pipes for porosity and cracks.

3.7.4 Air cleaner monitoring - check for proper working order

- Engine running, reduce air cleaner intake opening gradually by covering it (e.g. using cardboard or sheet
metal), until the air cleaner indicator lamp goes on.

ATTENTION After the air cleaner indicator lamp has gone on, the intake opening must not be
reduced further.
Risk of damage!

NOTE The air intake duct, the air cleaner housing


and the filter cartridge are located on the
radiator housing on the right side of the
vehicle.

ATTENTION The protective grill of the air intake duct


must not be covered. It must be kept free

4.2 Oil change / oil filter replacement

Attention The oil may only be stored in and transferred from clean containers. If this rule is not
observed, the gearbox might be contaminated and even damaged.
Make sure that containers or filling devices which have been used for anti-freeze or
engine coolant fluids are not used for transmission oil.

DANGER Danger of scalding when oil is hot.

Touching hot gearbox components may cause burns.

NOTE To facilitate collection of the used oil dur-


ing transmission oil changes, the oil drain
plug installed as standard equipment can
be removed during the first oil change, and
replaced by a drain valve provided with the
tool kit.
To this effect, first drain the used oil, then mount the
drain valve specified above including the packing ring
instead of the oil drain plug.
During subsequent oil changes, only the cap (1) of the
drain valve (2) need to be removed and replaced by the oil
drain hose (3) which is also supplied with the tool kit.

As the hose is fastened, the drain valve opens and the oil can be drained through the hose into the
collecting vessel provided to this effect.
After these operations have been finished, remove the drain hose, clean the thread using a clean
piece of cloth and retighten the cap screw.

For information regarding oil types, oil changes, replacement of oil filters, pouring in oil and oil level inspec-
tion, please refer to the enclosed operating instructions and the gearbox manufacturer’s list of approved lu-
bricants (Part G1, chassis).

NOTE Dirt particles:

During each oil change, check the drained oil for traces of dirt. Make sure to eliminate
any deposited mud or soft dirt in the oil sump completely.

Metal particles:

Metal particles in the oil indicate a damage which has occurred in the gearbox. If such
particles are detected in the oil sump, the gearbox must first be disassembled and in-
vestigated thoroughly, to determine the cause. Metallic impurities require complete
disassembly and cleaning of the gearbox.

6.3 Greasing the intermediate bearings of the propeller shafts of the non-
driven 2nd axle (8x6 standard version)

NOTE When greasing the intermediate bearings of the propeller shafts, make sure not to apply
high pressure or hard lubricating strokes to force in the lubricant. The maximum
admissible lubricating pressure must not exceed 30 bar.

- The intermediate bearings must be greased at regular intervals, according to the maintenance schedule, via
the lubricator (3).
- Check and clean the breather (4), if necessary, replace it (refer also to item C1-9). Clean, check and, if
necessary, replace the sealing element.

6.4 Greasing the axles

Attention Greasing by means of high-pressure grease guns must be effected carefully and slowly.
Otherwise the grease - in particular at relatively low temperatures - cannot flow fast
enough through the grease grooves of the bushings and through the bearings. This
might result in such a high back-pressure that the dust caps at the axle kingpins are
pressed through.

- The stub axle bearings must be greased at regular intervals,


according to the maintenance schedule.
- Check bearings of the joints, etc. for wear and good condition.
- Grease the articulated heads of the drop arms and guide levers
(steering linkage), (provided that they are equipped with
lubricators).

A defective breather may result in leakage at the gearbox, transfer box or a drive axle.
Engine malfunctions may also be due to a faulty ventilation filter of the fuel tank (superstructure).
Malfunctions of the hydraulic system can be due to a faulty ventilation filter of the hydraulic oil tank (chassis
and superstructure).
Malfunctions in the eddy-current brake**) can be due to a faulty breather.
Malfunctions of the superstructure swing mechanism may be due to a faulty breather.
However, other malfunctions in the brake and compressed air systems - valves which deaerate insufficiently,
wheel brakes which are sliding or releasing slowly - may be due to a contaminated breather or a clogged
breather hole.

The brake valves have been provided with a combined silencer / venting device. The wheel brake cylinders
are equipped with vent/breather holes.

• Check breathers for proper condition.

• Clean contaminated breathers on the outside.

• Vent/breather holes on the wheel brake cylinders must be free from contamination.

• The breather cap must be easy to turn (not in the case of venting devices on the brake valves).

• Check breathers for tight fit.

• Replace breathers if they have been loosened or lost, or if they are faulty.

• If it is suspected that the oil - especially the oil of the axles, of gearbox and transfer box - contains water,
make sure that an oil change is performed.

• During painting work, cover the breathers well. Once painting work is finished, it is essential to remove the
cover.

• When spray-cleaning the assemblies, make sure that the breathers are not directly exposed to the jet of
water. Penetrating water may cause damage.
• If it is suspected that the hydraulic oil (chassis and superstructure) contains water, make sure that the hy-
draulic oil is examined, and - if necessary - clean and change the oil.

• If water is suspected of having entered the fuel tank (chassis and superstructure), drain the water from the
fuel tank, as described. If necessary, drain condensed water from the fuel strainer as described, and if nec-
essary replace the fuel filter as described.

lubrication in the factory (oil filling). Thus, it normally does not require any
service or maintenance. Should nevertheless any leakage be detected,
the vehicle must be taken immediately to a specialized workshop where
the reason for the leakage is eliminated - i.e. if necessary, the miter gear
of the steering system may have to be replaced.
- Check the miter gear for leakage at regular intervals, according to the
maintenance schedule.

10.5.3 Checking the hydraulic system of the steering assembly for correct pressure

NOTE The test points (measuring connectors "M") and the measurement values of the entire
hydraulic system of the chassis are listed up under item 10.9.

In case of an operating malfunction in the steering system, the set-point pressure can be checked by screw-
fastening a hydraulic pressure gauge to the measuring sockets (M1), (M2) and (M5).

To ensure precise measurement results, increase the engine speed to maximum and actuate the steering
from the chassis or the superstructure to its stop at the left or right, and hold it in this position.

11.5 Inspection of the wheel brakes

NOTE The wheel brakes are adjusted automatically, depending on the wear of the brake
linings. Manual readjustment is not required.
However, it is necessary to check them at regular intervals.

11.5.1 Inspection of brake lining thickness

- To check the brake lining thickness visually, remove the rubber plugscrew from the inspection holes of the
cover plates.
• The brake linings have to be replaced if the wear marking provided has been reached, or if their thickness
has decreased to the minimum value of 4 mm.

Attention When brake linings are to be replaced, make sure to renew all linings of one axle.

Use only original TADANO-FAUN spare parts.

11.5.2 Inspection of the air gap

- Check the air gap between the brake drum and the brake
lining using a feeler gauge.
• During the inspection, make sure that both brake shoes are
applied evenly to the brake drum. For that purpose, actuate
the service brake.

The air gap for each brake shoe must be 0.4 to 1.2 mm.

The max. air gap must not exceed 1.2 mm.

• If the air gap needs to be readjusted, actuate the brake several times in quick succession while travelling at
low speed.

After approx. 30 braking operations, the air gap must have been reduced. If the air gap is not reduced, check
the spreading mechanism for proper operation.

NOTE The air gap of the brake can only be readjusted while the wheels are turning.

Attention If only one brake shoe touches the brake drum, the vehicle must be taken to a repair
workshop without delay.

12 Electrical equipment

Attention When work is effected at the electrical equipment, or during welding work on the
chassis, the current circuit must be interrupted by disconnecting the negative
terminal "-" cable from the batteries (marked with a minus sign [-] on the battery).
Never disconnect the batteries while the engine is running. This might destroy
electronic components.

12.1 Batteries

DANGER When checking the acid level, do not smoke; do not use open flames!
Due to chemical reactions, batteries emit highly explosive hydrogen gas!
Spilled battery acid must not touch the skin, the clothes or the vehicle's paint. Battery
acid may cause injuries. Wear protective glasses!
If acid has got on your skin or in your eyes, wash these areas immediately with ample
quantities of tap water and, if necessary, consult a doctor!

Attention Used batteries must be disposed of according to the regulations.

The batteries are located behind the lateral cover in the battery box on the vehicle's platform, on the left,
behind the driver's cab. If the vehicle operates under normal conditions, the batteries require only little
maintenance.
A well-charged battery helps improve the starting process and has a longer service life.

• The acid level must be checked at regular intervals (visual inspection). The acid level must be approx. 10 to
15 mm above the top edge of the cells.
• Only top up distilled or demineralized water. After replenishing, wait approx. 30 minutes, then check the
acid.
• The acid density in the individual cells must be measured using an acidimeter.

Discharge batteries freeze at -10°C.

NOTE When the vehicle is to be used under tropical climate conditions, it is essential to take
the fluctuations of the acid density into consideration. During the charging process,
the acid temperature must be monitored continuously.

• During the cold season, a good charging condition must be permanently ensured. If the vehicle is standing
for an extended period of time, the batteries must be re-charged.
• The charging current must not exceed 1/10 of the battery capacity.
- The connecting terminals must be greased with acid-free and acid-resistant grease (e.g. Vaseline).
• Due to the danger of short circuits, parts conducting current, such as tools, etc., must not be placed on the
batteries.
• If the battery charging pilot lamp does not go out at increased engine speed, this indicates that the batteries
are not charged. Find out the reason immediately (governor or alternator).

12.1.2 Installation of new batteries

• When installing new batteries, first connect the positive cable (+), and then the negative cable (-).
• For removal, reverse sequence of installation operations.

12.1.3 Starting the engine by means of jumper cables

Should the engine fail to start due to an uncharged battery, the engine can be started with energy supplied
by the batteries of another vehicle, by means of a jumper cable. However, only jumper cables provided
specifically to this effect with a sufficient cable cross section may be used for this starting process.
The two vehicles must be equipped with 24V systems. The total capacity (Ah) of the starter batteries must
not be essentially lower.
To avoid any current conduction between the vehicles, these must not be in connection in any way.
The batteries must be connected to the vehicle's electrical systems as specified.
The jumper cables must be connected by the following sequence of operations:

• Start the engine of the vehicle supplying power and make it run at medium speed level.
• Connect one end of the positive cable (+) to the positive terminal (+) of the discharged battery. Connect the
other end of the cable to the positive terminal (+) of the battery of the vehicle supplying power. The plus (+)
and minus (-) signs are marked on the battery.
• Connect one end of the negative cable (-) to the negative terminal (-) of the discharged battery. The other
end of the cable must be connected to the negative terminal (-) of the battery of the vehicle supplying
power. The plus (+) and minus (-) signs are marked on the battery.
• Now start the engine of the vehicle to be started by an external power source, as described under item 3.3.
• After starting the engine, disconnect the jumper cables again.

DANGER Do not touch the metallic parts of the cable clamps and make sure that the positive
cable (+) does not touch any metallic part of the vehicle's body.

12.2 Three-phase generator

The service life of the three-phase generator depends considerably on the bearings. Thus, make sure that
the Vee belts have always the proper tension (refer to Operating Manual of the engine manufacturer).

• The generator should be checked in a specialist workshop at regular intervals. In case of operation in very
dusty ambient conditions or at high ambient temperatures, the inspection should take place
correspondingly earlier.
• Operate the generator only when the batteries are connected.
• When connecting the batteries, pay attention to correct polarity, as incorrect connection might destroy the
diodes in the generator.
• Make sure that the batteries are disconnected and that the engine is not running when assembly work is
performed which involves live components (precaution)!
• Tipping against the mass in order to find out whether voltage is "on" is not admissible.
• Pre-excitation of the generator is effected from the batteries via the battery charging pilot lamp. To ensure
correct excitation, a defective battery charging pilot lamp must be replaced immediately.

13 Wheels and tires

DANGER The wheel is an important safety component at the vehicle and must be checked at
regular intervals with regard to:

• lateral or vertical movement of the rim,


• wear and deterioration of the tires,
• tire pressure,
• toe-in,
• parallelism of the wheels (immediately in case of a deficiency), racks in the rim and the wheel nave,
• traces of corrosion,
• damaged wheel bolts or wheel nuts,
• deformation of rims,
• tight fit of wheel nuts etc.

NOTE Refer also to chapter B0, item 1.1 „Important instructions regarding the load ratings of
tires depending on the maximum travelling speeds and the stress to which the rims
are subject“.

13.1 Measures to be taken to avoid accidents caused by the wheels

• Check the wheels for good condition and wear.


• When the vehicle operates under heavy load, it might be necessary to reduce the intervals specified in the
maintenance schedule.
• Do not repair or weld damaged wheels, misshapen and broken rims and bolt boreholes.
• Re-paint rim to prevent the development of corrosion and tension cracks.
• The surface protection of the rim must be checked and, if necessary, renewed at certain intervals and when
a tire is mounted.
• Whenever tires are mounted, clean the rims to remove corrosion, dirt and rubber residues and provide the
rims with a new protective paint.

DANGER In order to avoid severe accidents, make sure that only parts of the same make, the
same system and the same size are combined. Pay attention to the marked
identification figures.

13.2 Checking the wheel nuts on the disc wheel for tight fit

• Wheel nuts of recently mounted wheels must be checked for tight fit repeatedly, according to the
maintenance schedule, until all nuts remain evenly tightened.
• Re-tighten wheel nuts vigorously, without applying force.

NOTE Make sure to tighten the wheel nuts in crosswise order. Use a torque wrench.
Do not damage the threads of the wheel bolts.

DANGER In order to prevent the wheels from getting loose due to subsiding and abrasion of the
painted contact surfaces, which would result in ovalization of the rim holes or in
breaking of the wheel bolts, make sure that the wheel nuts are checked for tight fit at
regular intervals.

13.3 Tightening torque of wheel nuts (with thrust plate)

Wheel nuts M22x1.5, blackened with phosphorus = 650 Nm.

13.4 Tire pressure

Check the tire pressure at regular intervals, according to the maintenance schedule. It is possible to inflate
tires via the tire inflation socket on the pressure governor (for further details, refer to item C1-11.3.1). The tire
inflating pressures are specified in part "A", item 2.7.4.

tire approx. 300 kg). Risk of accidents!

- Park the vehicle.


- Actuate the parking brake.
- Gearbox set to „Neutral“.
- Shut off the engine.
- Prevent the vehicle from rolling away by placing wheel chocks under the wheels.
- After a case of damage, which might cause an accident hazard when removing the wheel, check the tire,
rim and hub.
- Release wheel nuts by approx. 2 turns.
- Jack-up the axle - e.g. by supporting the chassis by outriggers - until the tire has some ground clearance.
- Unscrew the wheel nuts, remove the wheel from the hub and put it down, without laying it on the ground.
- Clean wheel hub, bolts, nuts and contact surfaces of wheel; check them for wear and deficiencies.
- Replace defective components. Use only genuine TADANO-FAUN spare parts!

NOTE To facilitate mounting, the wheel can be lifted to the level of the wheel hub by means
of appropriate equipment, e.g. a forklift truck.

- Check new wheel for proper working order, then position it on the hub.
- Do not damage the threads of the wheel bolts.
- Screw-on the wheel nuts so that they are uniformly applied; then tighten them to the specified torque using
a torque wrench.
- If necessary, check tire inflating pressure.
- Set vehicle in driving condition. If necessary, perform leveling as described under item B1-4.7.
- Check wheel nuts for tight fit at regular intervals according to the maintenance schedule.

13.6 Interchanging wheels in view of tire wear

To ensure a uniform wear pattern on all tires, it is recommended to interchange the wheels of the vehicle.
This exchange is due as soon as an irregular wear pattern is visible. In this context, intervals ranging from
5,000 to 10,000 km have proved to be useful.

The wheels should be interchanged cross-wise, i.e. to the other side of the vehicle, and the locations should
be selected so that tires with a uniform wear pattern are mounted in locations showing an irregular wear
pattern.

These measures enhance the driving comfort and the service life of the tires.

Driver’s cab C1-15

15 Driver’s cab

Grease joints and pins and all movable components with lubricating oil. Make sure that these parts run freely
and are easy to operate.

These components are, e.g.:


• Joints of the folding access steps on the left and right;
• Hinges of the cover lid below the driver's cab,
• Hinges of the engine servicing lid.

The mechanical components of the door locks also require regular care. The closing cylinders should be
treated with a graphited agent, preferably before the cold season begins.
It is better to treat door seals and other rubber components with acid-free grease or French talc before the
cold season begins.

15.1 Warm water heating


15.1.1 Heat exchanger

After having removed the rear panel, lifted off the cover with air distributor and released the hose connec-
tions, the heat exchanger can be pulled upwards and out. It is advisable to rinse it thoroughly on the water
end at all main servicing intervals (approx. 3 - 5 years) to ensure that chalk and iron deposits are removed.
The air fins should be blown out at regular intervals of 500 service hours using compressed air in the direc-
tion opposite to the air supply. This can be performed while the heat exchanger remains mounted. However,
the air cleaner and the blower fan must be removed previously.

15.1.2 Blower fan

The blower fan slide-in module can be pulled out to the back after the rear panel has been removed. To
reach an optimum service life, the electric motor and the fan wheel must be blown out gently with com-
pressed air at regular intervals of 500 service hours. (Contamination reduces the electric motor's service life
and, due to imbalances on the fan wheel, may result to vibrations and consequently to development of
noise).

Attention Make sure that the position of any balancing clips on the impeller is not changed!

15.1.3 Air cleaner

The air cleaner can be replaced through the fresh air port when the flap is set to "fresh air". It must be
checked for contamination at regular intervals. A servicing interval of approx. 3 months or 15,000 km trav-
elled is recommended for filter replacement.
The servicing intervals depend on the local operating conditions and may be subject to fluctuations.
A severely contaminated air cleaner may result in insufficient demisting of the windows.

15.2 Wiper-blade elements


15.2.1 Replacement of wiper-blade elements

The wiper-blade elements must be cleaned at regular intervals to work properly.


For safety reasons (good visibility), it is recommended to replace the wiper-blade elements immediately if
their cleaning effect decreases. The wiper-blade elements should be replaced at least once per year.

Replacement of wiper-blade elements:

- Lift wiper arm (1), push down the spring (2) and slip wiper-
blade element (3) towards the wiper arm.
- Remove wiper-blade element and reverse the above proce-
dure to mount new wiper-blade element.

The wiper-blade element is correctly mounted when it is


locked in its support.

The supply tank of the windshield washing system is located below the front lid of the driver's cab, on the
right (refer to part "B1", item 2.3.3).

15.3 Air conditioner **)

DANGER All sorts of repair, replenishing or overhaul work on the air conditioner system may
only be performed in an authorized workshop by well-trained staff.
Work on the air conditioner requires specific extraction and filling stations, recovery
stations, electronic leak detectors and special tools which are only available in spe-
cialist workshops. Correct disposal of fluids is also only ensured in a specialized
workshop.

In the scope of the maintenance operations which are to be performed at least twice per year by the vehicle's
operator, all movable parts, such as shaft bearings and articulations of levers, must be lubricated sufficiently
with a commercially available grease, and actuated.

15.3.1 Functional check of air conditioner

The air conditioner should be put into operation for approx. 10 minutes at regular intervals, also in winter, to
keep it in proper working order.

15.3.1.1 Inspection for correct fluid level and leakage

- Start the engine of the vehicle.


- Switch on the air conditioner (for further details, refer to part "B1", item 4.4.5 and 10.14).
• When the system is perfectly tight, the white ball will float in the inspection glass of the fluid tank, thus indi-
cating the correct fluid level. (Refer to item 15.3.9)
• If air inclusions appear in the inspection glass, the system is leaky. It must be checked or repaired in a
specialist workshop. (Electronic leakage detector)
• If traces of corrosion or precipitation appear in the inspection glass, or if the refrigerant is turbid, the fluid
tank and the drier must be replaced in a special workshop.

15.3.2 Condenser

The condenser is installed below the driver's cab.


• Clean condenser at regular intervals to remove dust, insects, etc. (blowing out or washing down).

15.3.3 Evaporator

The evaporator is installed centrally in the driver's cab.


• Check discharge of condensed water.
• The evaporator fins must be blown out using compressed air together with the heat exchanger fins, with the
air jet directed contrary to the air-supply side. To this effect, the evaporator and the heat exchanger can
remain in their installation position. However, the blower fan and the air cleaner must be removed previ-
ously.

15.3.4 Heat exchanger

• It is advisable to rinse it thoroughly on the water end at all main servicing intervals to ensure that chalk and
iron deposits are removed.
For cleaning of heat exchanger fins, refer to item 15.3.3 "Evaporator".

15.3.5 Blower fan

• To reach an optimum service life, the electric motor and the fan wheel must be blown out gently with com-
pressed air at regular intervals of 500 service hours.

Attention Make sure that the position of any balancing clips on the impeller is not changed!

15.3.6 Air cleaner

• The air cleaner can be replaced through the fresh air port when the flap is set to "fresh air". It must be
checked for contamination at regular intervals. A severely contaminated air cleaner may result in insuffi-
cient demisting of the windows.

15.3.7 Hoses and hose clamps

• Check hoses for leakage, areas of abrasion and cracks.


• Hose clamps: Check hose couplings for tight fit.

15.3.8 Checking the Vee belt of the air conditioning compressor

• Check Vee belt for good condition, cracks, fouling and wear.
• Check the Vee belt tension.

Refer to operating manual of the engine manufacturer.

15.3.9 Drier of air conditioning compressor

The collector drier is installed centrally on the front end, below the driver's
cab. There is an inspection glass in the collector drier.
Two beads are located in the inspection glass.
1.: For fluid level indication; colour: white. (Refer to item 15.3.1.1)
2.: For moisture indication; colour: blue: dry.
Colour: pink: damp.
If the 2nd bead indicates "pink", this means that the collector drier must be
replaced by a specialist workshop.
However, the drier of the air conditioning compressor should be replaced at
intervals of max. 2 years.

15.3.10 Oil level inspection of air conditioning compressor

The oil level in the compressor can only be checked after a repair, or every time before the air conditioning
system is filled with new refrigerant. No refrigerant may be present in the circulation or the oil level inspec-
tion.
On principle, the oil volume extracted from the refrigerating circulation plus an additional quantity of 10 cm3
must be poured into the circuit on re-filling. If parts have been replaced during repair, then the quantities
specified for the replaced component must be added additionally (adhere to the current information by the
various manufacturers).

1 Maintenance intervals

The maintenance intervals depend on the vehicle’s operating conditions; the next maintenance will be due
after:

- a certain number of operating hours, or


- a defined period of time.

NOTE The value which is reached first shall be decisive.

The operating hours are indicated on the hourmeter in the crane cabin (refer to item B2-2.1).

Maintenance work which must be performed earlier than the regular maintenance works, or in a different
fashion, is indicated in the maintenance schedule in the column “Initial maintenance after”, e.g.
commissioning of the machine or replacement of components.
After these maintenance works have been effected, the column „Regular maintenance every 125 / 250 /
500 / 1000 / 2000 / operating hours“ shall apply.

Maintenance work which must be performed daily or before commissioning the vehicle has been marked by
an “X” in the maintenance schedule in the column “Daily, before start-up”.

The number of operating hours expiry of which calls for the specified maintenance work to be performed
repeatedly have been marked by an “X“ in the columns “Regular maintenance every 125 / 250 / 500 /
1000 / 2000 / operating hours”.

e.g. “every 500 operating hours“ i.e. after 500, 1000, 1500 etc. operating hours have been reached,
“every 2000 operating hours“ i.e. after 2000, 4000, 6000 etc. operating hours have been reached.

NOTE The maintenance intervals apply for machines which are subject to normal operating
and environmental conditions. If the machines are used in particular applications, the
maintenance intervals must be adapted to the prevailing operating conditions.

NOTE Whenever major maintenance work is performed, it is obvious that also maintenance
work required to be done at shorter intervals which coincides with this date must be
performed as well.

NOTE In the maintenance plans, items C2-18 to C2-21, the maintenance works are structured
by assemblies.
The maintenance works are shown, as an example, only for one part of an assembly;
if a part occurs more than just once, the maintenance works must be performed on all
such parts (e.g. batteries etc.).

- Remove any impurities which might be present.
- Clean sealing surfaces, clean sealing element, check and - if
necessary - replace it.
- Re-open the stop cock (1) in the suction pipe.

Attention Before starting the engine, check whether the stop cock in the suction pipe of the oil
tank is opened (lever transverse with reference to the piping).

NOTE It is recommended to have the oil analysed by the oil supplier before carrying out a
scheduled oil change, or at regular intervals, to see whether an oil change is
necessary.
The purity degree must comply with ISO 4406 grade 18/16/13. Only clean oil must be
poured in during the oil changes.
Depending on the degree of contamination and the thermal load the hydraulic oil is
subject to, shorter oil change intervals than those specified in the maintenance
schedule may be required.

! Filters and used oil must be disposed of in an environmentally responsible fashion. !


3.4 Changing the oil type

The hydraulic system can be converted to biodegradable oils according to VDMA 24568.

Attention When changing over the hydraulic system from oils based on mineral oil to
biodegradable oils, compliance with the directives of VDMA 24569 must be ensured.
(Use the recommended oil types.)

3.10 Pressure check in the hydraulic system of the superstructure

In the case of an operating malfunction of the hydraulic system of the superstructure, the set-point pressures
of the various pressure ranges can be checked by unscrewing the pipes from the measuring connectors on
the valves and control blocks, which are marked with "M" in the figure, and by fastening hydraulic pressure
gauges to these connectors.

The pipes on measuring connectors M 3, M 4, M 5 and M 6 must be unscrewed and connected to the
hydraulic pressure gauges.

When M 3, M 4, M 5 and M 6 are activated individually during crane work, their pressures appear on the
ASLI indicator unit. When several working movements are activated, the ASLI display always indicates the
highest pressure value.

NOTE Precise measurements are only possible after the system has been rinsed and bled.
The hydraulic oil temperature should be approx. + 30 to + 40°C and the engine speed
should be 2300 rpm. Setting tolerances: Pressure and time values +5%, engine speeds

They will be pleased to perform for you all the servicing, maintenance and repair work required.

4.5 Swing mechanism - greasing ring gear and pinion

The lubrication intervals depend on the slewing frequency. The special lubricant is applied to the gearing
using a paint-brush or a spray gun. It must be ensured that no blank areas are left on the tooth faces.

NOTE After each cleaning operation of the machine - especially after using a steam-jet unit -
check the lubrication of the ring gear and pinion of the swing mechanism. The ring
gear and the pinion must always be supplied with lubricant.

4.6 Greasing the ball bearing slewing ring

• Grease the ball-bearing slewing ring at regular intervals, according to the maintenance schedule, via the
lubricators installed in the superstructure platform.
• Shorter lubricating intervals may be required in tropical areas, at a high relative humidity, under ambient
conditions entailing lots of dust or dirt, and in the case of significant temperature fluctuations.
• Before the crane is put out of operation for an extended time, and before it is restored to operating
condition, re-greasing is essential.
• Caution when cleaning the crane - make sure that no water enters into the raceways.
• Once cleaning is finished, lubricate the crane thoroughly.
• The grease filling is to prevent friction, to seal and to protect the assembly against corrosion.
• Sufficiently ample amounts of grease must be used, so that a grease bead forms around the whole
circumference of the bearing grooves.
• To achieve uniform grease distribution, support the crane by outriggers and slew the superstructure while
re-greasing.

DANGER CAUTION during slewing operation ! Nobody is allowed to stay on the chassis ! For
slewing, it is essential that the crane is supported by outriggers!

4.7 Greasing the swing lock pin

• The lock pin of the superstructure locking system must always be easy to operate.
• Grease the pin at regular intervals.

4.8 Check mechanical superstructure lock and proximity switch for proper
working order.

The superstructure is locked mechanically by means of the locking pin. Checking is possible via a proximity
switch provided in the chassis. The functions of the lock assembly and the proximity switch should be
checked before each crane operation.
For locking the superstructure, refer to part B2-2.9.
If the green pilot lamp 17 "swing mechanism locked" does not go on while the manual lever in the
superstructure is actuated correctly, the following options are available:

• The pilot lamp 17 "swing mechanism locked" is faulty.


• The proximity sensor in the chassis is faulty.

4.9 Lubrication of the swing mechanism multi-disc


compartment

To ensure corrosion-protection inside the multi-disc compartment and to obtain a


constant friction value, 0.1 l of hydraulic oil must be poured in before assembling
the motor.
The multi-disc compartment does not require an oil change.

However, it must be ensured that the same type and quantity of oil are poured in
after repair or after replacement of the disc package, before the motor is
assembled.

hydraulic motor and the gearbox flange bolts for tight fit

• Check screws of rotary coupling, of hydraulic motor and gearbox flange bolts for tight fit according to the
maintenance schedule; if necessary, re-tighten.

ATTENTION It is essential to use a torque wrench for checking or re-tightening the screws and
bolts.

Tightening torques of
• ring gear connecting bolts M 27 = 1400 Nm,
• hydraulic motor securing bolts M 10 = 79 Nm,
• gearbox flange bolts M 16 = 280 Nm.

4.11 Checking the slewing device for wear

During the many years of operation, the wear of the raceway system, and consequently the tipping backlash
of the slewing device increase.

The maximum admissible increase of the bearing backlash, measured below the raceway, is 2.3 mm.
The specified value is not an absolute value, but indicates the increase of the backlash, referred to the
bearing backlash of the component when new.

DANGER If an inadmissible increase of the tipping backlash or advanced wear is suspected,


please contact the TADANO-FAUN After-Sales Service.

- On re-commissioning the machine, drain the preservative oil and pour in the specified oil type.
Only such types of preservative oil may be used as emulgate with the lubricating oil, according to the oil
manufacturer's specifications (Use the recommended oil types.)

5.8 Inspection of the hoisting gear brake

The hydraulic multi-disc brake of the hoisting gear is subject to a certain wear. For inspection, unscrew the
hoisting gear flange (5) together with the engine. In case of wear, the complete set of brake discs must be
replaced.
At the same time, the free wheeling of the hoisting gear brake must be checked.
To this effect, proceed as follows:
To check the free wheeling, pick up a load which amounts to 125 % of the max. rope pull force via the boom
elevation using the "short boom", and suspend it just above the ground. The distance which is now existing
between the lifted load and the ground must not change within 15 minutes.
However, it must be taken into consideration that the angle included by the boom elevation cylinder does not
change due to temperature influences. If the load moves down, the free wheeling must be replaced.

5.9 Check hoist limit switch for proper function

The hoist limit switch prevents the bottom block from hitting against the
rope sheaves.

- Raise the bottom block carefully, until the releasing weight (1) is lifted and
the spring-loaded limit switch (2) is set free.

Now, the crane movements "hoisting gear up", "extending


telescopes" and "boom elevation down" must be switched off.

- Lower the bottom block until the releasing weight is suspended freely;
now all crane movements are possible again.

5.11 Length transmitter rope


5.11.1 Checking the rope for correct winding-up and adjustment

• Check the length transmitter rope for good condition and


correct winding-up according to the maintenance schedule.

If the length transmitter rope is not correctly wound on the


drum or hangs loosely down from the drum, wrong data are
transmitted to the ASLI.
In this case, the length transmitter device must be readjusted
as follows:

- Retract the boom completely.

- Wind the rope on the drum.

NOTE The rope must be slightly tensioned.

Re-adjustment of the length transmitter unit

- Open the cover of the length transmitter unit (10 ea. hex. bolts SW 10).
- Turn potentiometer to the left to its stop at the setscrew (1) using a screwdriver.
- Check the boom length displayed in the ASLI. The ASLI must indicate 10.9 m.

Winch rope C2-6

6 Winch rope

NOTE The winch rope servicing and maintenance operations specified under item 6 must
also be performed for the rope of the 2nd hoisting gear.

DANGER A double ladder must be positioned at the superstructure to enable placing the rope
of the 2nd winch. The double ladder is located below the driver's cab and secured by
means of supports (see part B2, item 11.1).

6.1 Inspection of the rope

• The rope must be checked visually before and after each application.
• When the ropes are evaluated and inspected at regular intervals, the legal regulations (in FRG: according
to DIN 15020, page 2, and VBG 9a) must be observed scrupulously.
• Ropes must be discarded if one of the following deficiencies occurs: breakage of a rope, breakage of a
strand, stepping up, bruising, traces of corrosion, wear, reduction of the rope diameter, lasting deformation,
etc. (for more details, refer to Part “E Crane Testing Instructions", item 3, Inspection of winch ropes).
• The ropes must be checked along their whole length, even at the fastening devices.

6.2 Cleaning and lubrication of the rope

• To prolong the service life of the ropes, wash severely soiled ropes down with clear water at regular inter-
vals, and grease them after drying. To protect the ropes against humidity and corrosion, grease them at
regular intervals using an adhesive grease.
• It is not sufficient to grease the rope only on the outside. The lubricant must penetrate into the rope.
• Use the recommended types of lubricants.

ATTENTION To increase the rope's service life, keep it tidy; do not drag it over the ground.

6.3 Removal (replacement) of the rope

- Place the bottom block on the ground.


- Detach the rope socket from its bolt fastening devices and
remove it.
- Remove the rope from the hoist limit switch weight and de-
tach the rope falls from the bottom block and the guide pul-
leys.
- Wind off the rope until the rope limit switch shuts off.
- Loosen the residual rope windings.
- Detach the rope end by releasing the threaded pins from the
clamping bar (1);
- remove the rope.

6.4 Inspection of rope drum

• Before placing a new rope of the same type (refer to crane inspection booklet), check the rope drum.
• Clean the drum thoroughly, removing dirt, old paint and foreign matter.
• Check the rope drum grooves for wear.
• If necessary, check the oil level via the inspection glass (2).

C2-6 Winch rope

6.5 Placing a new winch rope

NOTE The service life of a rope depends essentially on the way how it is handled on posi-
tioning. For replacement, make sure that only metallic ropes of the same type,
strength and diameter are used.

• If possible, place a reel stand below the boom head when performing this work.
• The technical data of ropes are specified in the crane inspection booklet.
(The corresponding pages are available via the TADANO-FAUN After-Sales Service.)
- Pass the rope end over the boom head and pull it through to the rope drum.
- Pass the rope end through the bore-hole of the clamping piece (1), tighten the threaded pins.
- Wind up approx. 6 rope windings; wind off the rope until the rope limit switch shuts off as soon as 3 wind-
ings are reached; if necessary, re-adjust the switch.
- Wind up the rope slowly on the winch drum (place rope under a certain pretension).
- Tap the rope into its proper position using only a hammer of brass or lead.

• The rope is only wound up properly on the drum when the correct turn directions are selected.
• When winding up the rope, make sure that it is under tight tension (if necessary, grease the rope).
- Route the rope through the weight in the hoist limit switch, reeve the various rope falls in the bottom block
and fasten the rope to the rope socket.

ATTENTION Initially, the new rope may only be moved under moderate load and the load must be
increased gradually to its maximum rating, so that the rope is allowed to run in, to set-
tle and to lengthen.

6.6 Care to the winch rope

• Regular care to the rope helps ensure safety during crane operation and is essential for enhancing the
rope's service life considerably.
• Metallic ropes must be re-greased at regular intervals, depending on the operating conditions, this is espe-
cially important in the bending areas at the drum and the pulleys. The agents used for re-greasing must be
compatible with the original rope lubrication.
• Under identical test conditions, well-greased ropes provide four times the fatigue strength under reversed
bending stress than non-greased ropes.
• Metallic ropes which are subject to severe dirt accumulation should be cleaned at regular intervals, best
using a brush and washing with clear water.
• If the lower rope layers on the drum are nearly not used or not used at all, they must be unwound from time
to time and re-positioned under pre-load. A rope will operate with optimum economic efficiency if its entire
length is always used. Therefore, it is recommended to use a rope length suitable for the work to be per-
formed if crane operation will take an extended period of time.
• The rope must be checked visually at regular intervals, especially during the first time after placing. More-
over, it must be checked visually after extraordinary stress, in case of supposed, but not visible damage or
if there are first signs of damage at the rope.
• If the same hoisting movement is executed frequently, the winch rope may be dislocated longitudinally from
time to time.

acid may cause injuries. Wear protective glasses!
If acid has got on your skin or in your eyes, wash these areas immediately with ample
quantities of tap water and, if necessary, consult a doctor!

ATTENTION Used batteries must be disposed of in an environmentally responsible fashion.

The batteries are installed on the right side of the superstructure (viewed in driving direction), on the front
end, below the cover. For battery maintenance, open the servicing lid and remove the battery cover. If the
vehicle operates under normal conditions, the batteries require only little maintenance.
A well-charged battery helps improve the starting process and has a longer service life.

• The acid level must be checked at regular intervals (visual inspection). The acid level must be approx. 10 to
15 mm above the top edge of the cells.
• Only top up distilled or demineralized water. After replenishing, wait for approx. 30 minutes, then check the
acid.
• The acid density in the individual cells must be measured using an acidimeter.

Discharged batteries freeze at -10°C.

7.1.1 Specific gravity and charge condition of the battery at an acid temperature of
+20°C

Specific gravity Volts per cell Charge condition of battery


Normal Tropics at test instrument
1.28 1.23 2.4 well charged
1.20 1.12 2.0 semi-discharged; re-charge
1.12 1.08 1.75 discharged - recharge immediately

NOTE When the vehicle is to be used under tropical climate conditions, it is essential to take
the fluctuations of the acid density into consideration. During the charging process,
the acid temperature must be monitored continuously.

• During the cold season, a good charging condition must be permanently ensured. If the vehicle is standing
for an extended period of time, the batteries must be re-charged.
• The charging current must not exceed 1/10 of the battery capacity.
- The connecting terminals must be greased slightly with acid-free and acid-resistant grease (e.g.Vaseline).
• Due to the danger of short circuits, parts conducting current, such as tools, etc., must not be placed on the
batteries.
• If the battery charging pilot lamp does not go out at increased engine speed, this indicates that the batteries
are not charged. Eliminate the reason immediately (governor or alternator).

7.1.2 Installation of new batteries

• When installing new batteries, first connect the positive cable (+), and then the negative cable (-).
• For removal, reverse sequence of installation operations.

7.2 Three-phase generator

The service life of the three-phase generator depends considerably on the bearings. Thus, make sure that
the Vee belts have always the proper tension (refer to Operating Manual of the engine manufacturer).

• The generator must be checked in a specialist workshop at regular intervals. In case of operation in very
dusty ambient conditions or at high ambient temperatures, the inspection should take place
correspondingly earlier.
• Operate the generator only when the governor and the batteries are connected.
• When connecting the batteries, pay attention to correct polarity, as incorrect connection might destroy the
diodes in the generator.
• Make sure that the batteries are disconnected and that the engine is not running when assembly work is
performed which involves live components (precaution)!
• Tipping against the mass in order to find out whether voltage is "on" is not admissible (destruction of semi-
conductors).
• Pre-excitation of the generator is effected from the batteries via the battery charging indicator lamp. To
ensure correct excitation, a defective battery charging pilot lamp must be replaced immediately.

7.3 Starter

Refer to the instructions of the engine manufacturer.

7.5 Load moment limiter (ASLI - Automatic Safe Load Indicator)

The automatic safe load indicator consists to a major part of electronic components of modular
design which must be serviced exclusively by qualified service staff.

Every time before the crane operator puts the machine into operation, he must make sure that:

• the ASLI is not restricted in its functionality by external destruction;


• the hoist limit switch, its weight and chain are correctly mounted,
• the electric cable connections are inserted;
• the cables are correctly wound up and tensioned in the electric cable drum, and properly routed in the
cable drum;
• the cables are neither damaged nor any strands are broken.

7.6 Inspection of the ASLI at regular intervals according to the legal


regulations

• The systems must be checked with calibrated weights according to the legal regulations.
• If an essential difference compared to the original setting is detected, re-adjustment must be effected by a
specialist.

Tampering with the electronic system of the ASLI by unauthorized persons is prohibited.

8 Crane cabin

Grease joints and pins and all movable components with lubricating oil. Make sure that these parts move
unrestrictedly and are easy to operate.

These components are, e.g.:

• Hinges of the covers and servicing lids.

The mechanical components of the door lock also require regular care. The closing cylinder should be
treated with a graphited agent, preferably before the cold season begins.
It is most useful to treat door seals and other rubber components with acid-free grease or French talc before
the cold season begins.

For further information concerning the crane cabin, refer to the documents of the machine manufacturer in
part G2 Superstructure.

8.1 Air conditioner**)

The air conditioner for the crane cabin is MAINTENANCE-FREE. It must only be taken to a special workshop
in case of malfunctions.

Attention All sorts of repair, replenishing or overhaul work on the air conditioner system may
only be performed in an authorized workshop by well-trained staff.
Work on the air conditioner requires specific extraction and filling stations, recovery
stations, electronic leak detectors and special tools which are only available in
specialist workshops. Correct disposal of fluids is also only ensured in a specialized
workshop.

Oil level inspection of air conditioning compressor:

The oil level in the compressor can only be checked after a repair, or every time before the air conditioning
system is filled with new refrigerant. No refrigerant must be present in the circuit at the time the oil level in-
spection is performed.
On principle, the oil volume extracted from the refrigerating circuit plus an additional quantity of 10 cm3 must
be poured into the circuit on re-filling. If parts have been replaced during repair, then the quantities specified
for the replaced component must be added additionally (adhere to the current information by the various
manufacturers).

8.1.1 Functional check of air conditioner

The air conditioner should be put into operation for approx. 10 minutes at regular intervals, also in winter, to
keep it in proper working order.

The system should be checked in a specialist workshop once per year at the beginning of the cooling period.

For further details on operation, care and maintenance of the air conditioner, refer to the documents of the
manufacturer of this unit in Part G2, Superstructure.

Recurrent crane inspections E-1

Recurrent crane inspections

Every FAUN crane is tested before delivery according to the DIN standards or the Regulations for the Pre-
vention of Accidents according to BGV D6 valid in the Federal Republic of Germany.

The accident prevention provisions valid in the Federal Republic of Germany specify that inspections be
effected at yearly intervals; corresponding regulations are valid abroad and have to be observed.
If no appropriate regulations are existing in the country of use, it is recommended to perform these recurrent
inspections according to the Provisions for the Prevention of Accidents BGV D6 valid in Germany.

Recurrent yearly inspections of cranes can be effected by experts or by persons who have acquired special
knowledge in the crane sector. This inspection is essentially a visual inspection which serves to assess the
condition of the crane as a whole and of its components.
Moreover, according to the Provisions for the Prevention of Accidents BGV D6 (§ 26), an inspection by
an expert must be performed every 4 years.
Any deficiencies detected must be recorded in the crane's inspection booklet; the operating company is
obliged to eliminate these deficiencies. A subsequent inspection may be necessary.

The load handling equipment is subject to the Provisions for the Prevention of Accidents VBG 9a or to
the corresponding national testing instructions.

In the scope of the recurrent inspections, the automatic safe load indicator and all hydraulic and electrical
control and safety devices must also be checked by an expert.

The expert or the person who has acquired special knowledge in the crane sector is solely responsible for
the entire extent of the checks to be performed in the scope of the recurrent inspection.
The following text contains a few important instructions which are to be observed in the scope of the recur-
rent inspections.
However, we would like to point out that this text does not cover all items within the scope of inspection.

1 Inspection of supporting steel structures


All supporting steel structures, such as boom, superstructure rotary platform with the screws and bolts of the
ball bearing slewing ring, chassis frame, outrigger casings and outrigger beams must be checked at regular
intervals, depending on the operating conditions, at least, however, once per year. Weld seams, even those
which are subjected to less stress, must also be checked thoroughly.

Various stress cycle figures have been determined for the various high-tensile fine grain steels according to
DIN 15017 part 3. According to this standard, FAUN cranes have been designed for the load ensemble S1
light and a stress cycle figure of 25000 load cycles. They can be used to calculate the service life of the
crane in question, depending on the crane's operating conditions. This service life does not only depend on
the stress cycle figure, but also on the loads to which the crane was subjected during the period of operation.

The following drawings (refer to item 1.1) are examples for some load-supporting steel structures of the
crane and are to provide some guidelines for the inspector regarding the areas to be checked. The areas
marked with arrows are subject to high stress and must be checked in the scope of the inspections, or de-
pending on the operating conditions.
However, please note expressly that the drawings are not meant to be complete, but are only to be consid-
ered as guidelines.

E-1 Inspection of supporting steel structures

cont'd.: 1 Inspection of supporting steel structures

If damage (e.g. cracks, deformations) is detected during these inspections, an expert must be consulted.
After the damage has been recorded, the vehicle manufacturer must be consulted based on the remark un-
der C1-1, item 1.2 “Welding and straightening work”.
The way how to effect repair must be determined by the vehicle manufacturer in agreement with the expert.

If welding work must be effected on the mobile crane, the following precautions must be taken as a minimum
before work is commenced, in order to protect the electronic control units:

- Turn the battery switch in chassis and superstructure OFF;


- disconnect battery cable in chassis and superstructure from the negative terminal, then disconnect the
battery cable from the positive terminal and connect them;

Attention During electrical welding work, the ground terminal of the welding unit must be con-
nected directly to the part to be welded.
If this instruction is not observed, the current flow may cause damage to loose con-
nections, e.g. tooth faces, bearings, slide pieces, shafts, the electronic system, the
ASLI, etc.

DANGER Make sure that the welding instructions are observed.

If the crane has been subjected to inadmissible stress during service (e.g. to a high shock load caused by a
load "dropped" into the rope, etc.), the machine must be checked to determine that its supporting compo-
nents are in perfect working order.

DANGER Any damage caused to the supporting components of the crane entails an increased
risk of accidents.

Inspection of the hook blocks E-2

2 Inspection of the hook blocks

DANGER Crane work using worn or faulty hook blocks is prohibited. Otherwise, accidents in-
volving damage to property or personal injury would be inevitable.

Thus, hook blocks must be checked at regular intervals for proper working order and good condition.
These inspections must be performed by experts. It is essential to comply with the appropriate national regu-
lations and directives.
Please do not hesitate to contact your TADANO-FAUN after sales service in case of queries or problems.
He will be pleased to perform for you all the servicing and maintenance work required.

The hook blocks or the load hooks have to be checked regularly by persons who dispose of special knowl-
edge in this field, at intervals which depend on the operating conditions of the crane, however at least once
per year. These regular inspections are intended to prevent accidents which might be due to deficiencies.

The deficiencies detected in the course of this inspection have to be recorded, and eliminated; afterwards,
the crane must be subjected to subsequent verification to ensure that the deficiencies have been eliminated.

2.1 Inspection for widening of the hook mouth

The hook mouth has to be checked for deformation at


regular intervals, as required, depending on the operat-
ing conditions of the crane, at least however once per
year.
The widening of the hook mouth must not exceed 10
%, referred to the original dimension "y", or "y1" and
"y2".
The original dimensions are specified on the load hook
and in the crane documentation. The dimensions "y" Identification
are measured between two dotting marks.
Measured length „y“ or „y1“ and „y2“ in the case of hammer-
forged load hooks

DANGER If the determined widening of the hook exceeds 10%, the load hook must not be used
any longer.

NOTE If any deformation is detected (even less than 10%), the load hook must be checked
for superficial cracks using appropriate means.

E-2 Inspection of the hook blocks

2.2 Inspection for wear

According to German regulations, the wear of single and double hooks must not exceed 5 % of the height h2.

DANGER If the determined wear of the hook exceeds 5%, the load hook must not be used any
longer.

2.3 Inspection for corrosion

Especially the thread of the load hook has to be checked for corrosion. The load hook nut must be removed
from the hook stem to expose the thread turns of the lood hook stem so that they can be judged.

DANGER The load hook must not be used any longer if traces of corrosion or wear are visible at
the thread.

Inspection of lifting ropes E-3

3 Inspection of lifting ropes

DANGER Crane work using worn or faulty winch ropes is prohibited. Otherwise, accidents in-
volving damage to property or personal injury would be inevitable.

Thus, winch ropes must be checked at regular intervals for proper working order and good condition.
These inspections must be performed by experts. It is essential to comply with the appropriate national regu-
lations and directives.
Please do not hesitate to contact your TADANO-FAUN after sales service in case of queries or problems.
He will be pleased to perform for you all the servicing and maintenance work required.

The rope drives of mobile cranes are not designed for high endurance strength. Thus, wire breaks occur
during operation. The principles for monitoring rope drives used for working applications are recorded in the
following text.

The ropes must be checked regularly, taking account of the prevailing operating conditions of the crane. The
rope must be observed more attentively at shorter intervals especially in the time just after it has been
placed, after a lifting rope has ben replaced and after extraordinary stress situations, or if internal damage is
suspected which is not visible on the outside.
The reliability of metallic ropes used in working applications can be judged by the following criteria:

• Type and number of wire breaks,


• Position and time intervals at which the wires break,
• Reduction of the rope diameter during the operating time,
• Corrosion,
• Abrasion,
• Deformations of the rope,
• Influence of heat,
• Service life.

Rope fastening and rope suspension devices must also be checked for safe condition. It should be pointed
out especially that wire breaks tend to be difficult to detect on these components. Other parts of the rope
drive, such as the rope drum or the rope pulley, must move easily in their bearings.

The term "direction of lay" (direction of rope winding)


refers to the direction of the helical line of the outer
strands.
A distinction is made between right-laid ropes (symbol
Z) and left-laid ropes (symbol S).

CROSS-LAY:

The direction of turning of the wires in the strands is


opposite to the direction of turning of the strands in the
rope.

LONG LAY:

The wires in the strands and the strands in the rope


have the same turning direction.

rechtsgängig - right-laid
linksgängig - left-laid
Kreuzschlag - cross-lay
Gleichschlag - long lay

3.2 Replacement state of repair of metallic ropes due to:


3.2.1 Wire breaks

A metallic rope must be discarded at the latest when the number of visible wire breaks which is specified in
the following table appears in any place of the rope.

Long-lay ropes

Number of load-bearing wires Number of visible wire breaks when the rope
in is ready for discarding, for a length of
the outer strands
6xd 30 x d
76 - 100 2 4
101 - 120 2 5
121 - 140 3 6

Cross-lay ropes

Number of load-bearing wires Number of visible wire breaks when the


in rope is ready for discarding, for a length of
the outer strands
6xd 30 x d
76 - 100 4 8
101 - 120 5 10
121 - 140 6 11

DANGER The rope must be discarded when the specified number of wire breaks is reached;
otherwise, there is an increased risk of accidents.

NOTE After the first wire breaks have been detected, the test intervals must be shortened to
ensure timely detection of the replacement state of wear.

It may be useful to record the occurrence of wire breaks via time. In this case, an increasing number of wire
breaks in the course of of time helps the user determine the expected time when the rope should be dis-
carded.

3.2.2 Replacement state of wear of metallic ropes due to tangles of broken wires

If tangles of broke wire occur, the metallic rope must be discarded. In case of breakage of a strand, the me-
tallic rope must be discarded immediately.

3.2.3 Reduction of diameter

The metallic rope must be discarded if its diameter is reduced, due to structural changes, by 15 % or more
over an extended length, as compared to its nominal diameter.

3.2.4 Corrosion

The metallic rope must be discarded if its diameter is reduced, due to corrosion damage, by 10 % or more,
as compared to the nominal diameter, even if no wire breaks are detected. It is difficult to determine corro-
sion in wires which are not visible externally.

0515_EN_FA043_E3_00_00_00
2003-01 3/10
E-3 Inspection of lifting ropes

3.2.5 Abrasion

The wire rope must be discarded if its diameter is reduced, due to abrasion, by 10 % or more, as compared
to the nominal diameter, even if no wire breaks are detected. Abrasion may reduce the rope's static breaking
load (due to reduction of the metallic rope cross-section), and the endurance strength (due to abrasion not-
ches).

3.2.6 Rope deformation

Deformations of the rope are visible changes in the metallic rope's wire structure. The following deformations
can be distinguished by their appearance:

• Corkscrew-shaped deformations: The rope must be discarded as soon as the


unevenness reaches 1/3 or more of the ropes diameter.

• Basket-shaped deformations occur when the outer wire layer is loosened, or


when the outer strands are longer than the inner strands. As the outer wire or
strand layers are shifted with reference to the outer layers, the excess length is
shifted to one area. The metallic rope must be discarded as soon as basket-
shaped deformations appear.

• Loop-shaped deformations. In this case, single wires or wire groups resem-


bling hairpins protrude from the rope structure on the opposite side of the rope
groove. If the rope structure is changed substantially, the rope must be dis-
carded.

• Loosening of single wires or strands: In this case, the outer wires or single
strands of the metallic rope, which is under load, can be shifted. Thus, they are
not bearing the portion of the traction force for which they are intended, which
means that the other wires or strands are overcharged. If wires are loosened
due to corrosion or wear, the metallic rope has to be discarded. If this deforma-
tion is due to other causes, the resulting number of wire breaks determines the
time when the rope must be discarded.

• Knots are "swellings" within the metallic rope which occur repeatedly over a
certain rope length. Knots cause additional movements in the rope. Metallic ro-
pes which have numerous knots must be discarded.

• Contractions are reductions in the rope's diameter over short rope lengths.
Metallic ropes which present substantial contractions must be discarded.

0515_EN_FA043_E3_00_00_00
4/10 2003-01
Inspection of lifting ropes E-3

3.2.6 Rope deformation (cont'd.)

• Flat spots are permanent deformations of the metallic rope which are due to
bruising. Wire breaks tend to occur at flat spots.

• Buckling is deformation which occurs when an eyelet-shaped rope loop is pul-


led straight, whereby the resulting deformation cannot be eliminated by the rope
turning around its axis. Metallic ropes presenting one or several buckles must
be discarded.

• Kinks are deformations which occur if external violent loads act on the metallic
rope. Metallic ropes with kinks must be discarded.

• "Curl-shaped" deformations occur if the stressed metallic rope is pulled over an edge. Metallic ropes
containing such deformations must be discarded.

3.2.7 Influence of heat

These metallic ropes have been exposed to enormous heat, and are distinguished by tarnishing appearing in
various colours on the external wires. These metallic ropes must be discarded.

3.2.8 Service life

Provided that operating conditions are identical and the same metallic rope is used, the persons in charge of
a crane can estimate approximately the time when a metallic rope is to be replaced in the scope of preven-
tive maintenance of the crane, to the extent that they dispose of sufficient knowledge and experience in the
operation of a rope drive.

All the criteria specified above (items 3.2.1 to 3.2.8.) are nevertheless decisive for determination of the re-
placement state of wear of a metallic rope.

DANGER A metallic rope must be replaced immediately if it contains one of the following defi-
ciencies; otherwise, there would be an increased risk of accidents.
If there are doubts as regards the future suitability of a specific metallic rope, it
should be discarded on principle, or a specialist, e.g. a staff member of the rope ma-
nufacturer, should check the rope thoroughly.

NOTE Should any particular deficiencies be detected on the metallic rope, the reason for
those deficiencies must be determined and eliminated. A new rope should not be pla-
ced until after this measure has been taken.

E-3 Inspection of lifting ropes

3.3 Replacement of a metallic rope

DANGER When a new rope is placed, make sure that only a rope of the same strength, make
and with the same nominal diameter as the former one (when new) is mounted.
The use of a different rope type requires the prior written approval of the crane manu-
facturer.

Metallic ropes must be unloaded, transported and stored with suffi-


cient care. During unloading and transport, the rope must be pro-
tected against mechanical damage, which may be caused by the
tines of forklift trucks or load hooks.

Ropes stored for use at a future date should be stored in a clean, cool and dry place covered by a roof, and
without touching the ground, e.g. on pallets.

When a new lifting rope is mounted, it is essential to ensure that the


new rope is spooled up on the winch without being twisted and dam-
aged. A rope supplied as a ring or on a reel should be spooled up
preferably using a rotary table or a trestle.
When the rope is spooled from the reel to the drum, the bending
direction must not changed.

The rope windings must definitely not be pulled off the ring or the reel laterally, as this would twist
the rope.

NOTE When placing the new rope, do not drag it on the ground. The sand which may stick to
the rope lubricant may damage wires in the contact area between the rope pulley and
the rope.

When the new metallic rope is mounted by means of the used rope to be discarded, or by means of an auxil-
iary rope, the new rope must not be twisted. Moreover, the two ropes must be connected safely. This con-
nection between the two ropes can either be established by means of welded-on eyelets or via a rope hose.

3.3 Replacement of a metallic rope (cont'd.)

Wrong Wrong Wrong

To ensure that the metallic rope is spooled up correctly, particularly if several layers are to be arranged on
the drum, it is very important that the new rope is spooled on the drum under a pre-load of approx. 1 % to 2
% of the minimum breaking force of the rope. If the lower layers are spooled up on the drum with excessive
play, the upper layers may be squeezed between the loose, lower rope windings when subject to load. This
may cause serious damage to the rope.

The pre-load should be produced by braking the reel flange


using a board,

or using a brake disc mounted to the reel, by means of brake


strings.

It is absolutely inadmissible to produce the required pre-


load by clamping the metallic rope between two blocks of
wood.

Wrong

After the new rope has been mounted, it should be initially "run-in" under low partial loads. This way, the
rope "settles", and adapts better to the bending direction or the bending radii of the rope drum and the pulley.

3.4 Service and Maintenance

Metallic ropes require maintenance at regular intervals which depend on the operating conditions. The ser-
vice life of a metallic rope can be extended considerably if it is subject to regular care.
The metallic ropes must be re-greased at regular intervals which depend on the operating circumstances.
Ropes which are well greased reach an essentially higher number of reversed bending stress cycles, and
thus a substantially longer service life.

NOTE The lubricant intended for re-greasing should be selected so that it is compatible with
the original lubricant supplied by the rope manufacturer.

Metallic ropes which are exposed to substantial quantities of dirt must be cleaned at regular intervals. This
cleaning should be performed preferably using brushes.

In many cases, metallic ropes have to be discarded which are only damaged on a relatively short length
which is subject to severe stress, e.g. at the transition from the first to the second layer, even though the rest
of the rope is still in good condition. Thus, the service life of a rope can be extended if the corresponding
rope length is cut off*), so that the rope length which was previously exposed to severe stress is now in an
area subject to less stress.

*) However, in case of ropes equipped with steel wire rope clamp (execution with Super-Stop rope socket),
the rope clamp must be press-fitted anew according to the provisions of the rope manufacturer.

3.5 Elimination of elongation spin

This spin caused by elongation becomes apparent as a hook block without load turns during operation with
several rope falls. This indicates that spin compensation is required due to the settling and lengthening of the
rope after an extended period of use, and after a new rope has been placed. Due to this elongation spin, the
outer strands of the metallic rope can become loose, and may even form "baskets" under certain circum-
stances.

To eliminate this elongation spin, the following steps should be taken:

1. Deposit the hook block on the ground; to this effect, make sure that a maximum rope length is available
for spin compensation between the hook block and the boom pulley head.

2. Determine the inward turning direction; as this may prove to be difficult, a check twist should be effected
to find out whether the tress is twisted inwards or outwards.

3. Release the rope from the fixed point on the hook block or on the boom head; this work is considerably
facilitated if the spin compensation is effected with an odd number of rope falls, or if an odd number of ro-
pe falls is reeved. With an odd number, the fixed point of the rope is always located at the hook block,
and thus is easily accessible.

4. To compensate the spin, turn the rope fall released from the fixed point accordingly; it is important to note
that the rope released from the fixed point must be turned against the direction of turning which has cau-
sed the dissolution of the rope tress during trial turning.

NOTE It is essential to ensure that this turn is applied to a rope section which is as long as
possible. Turning a short rope length using force is strictly prohibited, as this might
destroy the rope structure.

5. Fasten the rope fall at the fixed point using the rope clamp by means of pins and the retaining clip.

6. After the spin compensation has been accomplished, a few lifting cycles in no-load condition have to be
effected so that this compensation can spread via the rope pulleys over the entire length of the rope.

NOTE In case of a particularly strong elongation spin, this spin compensation may have to
be effected several times, until the rope is moving correctly again.

4 Working life of the rope winch gear assemblies

DANGER Should the hoisting gears not operate correctly or even be faulty, crane work is pro-
hibited. Otherwise, accidents involving damage to property or personal injury would
be inevitable.

Thus, hoisting gears must be checked at regular intervals for proper working order and good condition.
These inspections must be performed by experts. It is essential to comply with the appropriate national regu-
lations and directives.
Should there be no national regulations, we recommend - regarding the inspection intervals - to proceed as
described in the following example.
Please do not hesitate to contact your TADANO-FAUN after sales service in case of queries or problems.
He will be pleased to perform for you all the servicing, maintenance and repair work required.

4.1 Theoretical service life of the winch

The winch was designed and dimensioned on the basis of certain operating conditions and of a rated total
operating time, which enable the calculation of a theoretical service life of the winch.

The winch installed in the crane is rated as follows:

Drive assembly group M3


Load ensemble L1
Load ensemble factor Km = 0.125
Theoretical service life D = 3200 h

NOTE The theoretical service life must not be equated with the actual (real) service life of the
winch.

The actual (real) service life is affected additionally by a number of external influences, e.g.:

a) Overload if the crane is used for purposes not included within its intended fields of application;

b) Insufficient maintenance, e.g. neglect of the specified oil-change intervals;

c) Operating errors, extreme decelerations, or loads "dropping" in the rope;

d) Maintenance faults, e.g. incorrect oil type or filling volume; contamination in the course of oil change;

e) Assembly errors in the course of maintenance and repair;

f) Leaks which are not eliminated;

g) Incorrectly set safety equipment, e.g. pressure limiting valves;

h) Concealed damage due to accidents;

i) Extreme environmental conditions, e.g. dust and dirt; aggressive atmosphere, high or low temperatures.

4.2 Consumed portion of the theoretical service life

The crane operator has the duty to check the crane or to have it checked at least once per year.

In this context, the consumed portion of the theoretical service life also has to be determined. If the crane
operator is not able to do this work on his own, he has to commission an expert with this task. In Germany,
this inspection is performed by a crane expert, based on § 28 BGV D6. In other countries, this is done by the
"expert engineer" pursuant to ISO 9927-1. Any deviation provisions valid in those countries must be adhered
to.

To calculate the consumed portion of the theoretical service life, the real operating conditions (load ensem-
ble) and the service hours of the winch per inspection interval must be determined. The operator is responsi-
ble for recording this data in the crane documentation correctly.

4.2.1 Determination of the operating conditions

On the basis of the actual known operating conditions, one of the following load ensembles must be selected
and entered in the crane documentation for the appropriate inspection interval.

The load ensemble of the crane is divided into the following groups.

4.2.2 Determination of the effective service hours Ti

The service hours which are to be determined as described in the following text, have to be entered into the
crane documentation for the winch, for the appropriate inspection interval. Depending on the crane model, it
may be necessary to determine the effective service hours according to one of the following four cases:

NOTE Normally, the reference value specified below in per cent for the determination of the
service hours of hoisting gears are only valid for the main hoist winches. The portions
of the total service hours of any auxiliary hoist winches **) may be essentially lower
and must consequently be estimated by the operator according to the prevailing op-
erating conditions.

4.2.3 Hourmeter provided on each winch

If the crane is equipped with an hourmeter on each winch, the actual number of service hours "Ti" is indi-
cated directly for the inspection interval in question.

4.2.4 Hour-meter provided for superstructure operation as a whole

The actual portion of the service hours of the winch, referred to the total number of service hours of the su-
perstructure, is to be estimated by the operator.

NOTE If a mobile crane is used for assembly work, a value of 20 % can normally be assumed
for the portion of service hours of the winch, referred to the service hours used for
superstructure operation as a whole.

4.2.5 One combined hour-meter provided for crane and driving operation

The actual portion of the service hours of the winch, referred to the total service hours of the machine is to
be estimated by the operator.

NOTE In the case of mobile cranes used for assembly work, a portion of 60 % can normally
be assumed for the service hours of the superstructure, referred to the machine's to-
tal service hours. If 20 % are assumed for the portion of the service hours of the
winch, referred to the service hours of the superstructure (as specified under item
4.2.4), a portion of 12 % results for the winch, referred to the machine's total service
hours.

4.2.6 No hour-meter provided - neither for the chassis nor for the crane

In this case, the operator has to estimate and to record the actual service hours of the winch according to the
operating conditions.

NOTE The indicated percentage values apply normally for the main winch. For the auxiliary
winch **), the portion of the entire accumulated service hours can be considerably
lower. It must be estimated by the operating company.

**) Optional equipment, possible for various vehicle types

4.3 Determination of the consumed portion of the theoretical service life

The following formula is used to compute the consumed portion "Si" of the theoretical service life "D" for an
inspection interval "i" (maximum 1 year):

Si = ( Kmi : Km ) x Ti

Km = Load ensemble factor used as a basis for design of the winch. This factor has been recorded in the
operating manual.

Kmi = Load ensemble factor in the inspection interval "i" according to section 4.2.1.

Ti = Effective service hours of the winch in the inspection interval "i" according to section 4.2.2.

After each inspection interval, this consumed portion "Si" of the theoretical service life is deducted from the
remaining theoretical service life "Di" (refer to example).

The operator has to ensure a general overhaul of the winch as soon as the remaining theoretical service life
is presumably no longer sufficient for the next inspection interval.

Once the theoretical service life "D" has been reached (refer to section 4.1), winch operation may only be
continued after a general overhaul.

DANGER A general overhaul must be performed at the latest on expiry of the theoretical service
life of the hoist winch, however in any case after 10 years.

The general overhaul is to be initiated by the crane operating company, and is to be effected by the hoist
winch manufacturer or by persons authorized by the hoist winch manufacturer; the overhaul must be re-
corded accordingly in the crane inspection booklet.

After the general overhaul has been performed, a new theoretical service life "D" is specified by the hoist
winch manufacturer or by persons authorized by him. This new theoretical service life "D" must be recorded
in the crane inspection booklet.

DANGER The subsequent general overhaul must be performed at the latest after the hoist
winch's theoretical service life has expired, or after 10 years.

If the theoretical service life has not yet been consumed after 10 years, winch operation can be continued
without general overhaul, if the crane expert confirms by signing in the crane inspection booklet on the occa-
sion of each expert inspection that the consumed portion of the service life has been determined correctly
and conveniently.

In this case, the winch must be subjected to a thorough test by the crane expert:

a) External visual inspection (deformations, damage, leakage etc.)


b) Inspection of the oil - specifically for metallic residues
c) Load tests at the maximum speed possible at maximum and minimum rope pull. At least one
rope layer must be spooled on the drum. In this load test, pay attention to abnormal sounds.

The crane expert must confirm this inspection in the crane inspection booklet and state whether winch op-
eration may be continued or not. The next inspection is to be effected prior to expiry of the 12th service year;
all the other inspections must be performed at yearly intervals.

E-4 Working life of the rope winch gear assemblies

4.3.1 Example showing the determination of the consumed portion of the theoretical
service life

The mobile crane has been equipped with a separate hourmeter in the superstructure. According to the
Operating Manual, the rope winch has the following rating:

Drive assembly group M3


Load ensemble L 1, Km = 0.125
Theoretical service life D = 3200 h

The consumed portion "Si" of the theoretical service life of the winch is calculated using the various inspec-
tion intervals (once per year), as described below:

First inspection (after the first year of operation)

A separate hour-meter is provided on the superstructure. The crane has been used exclusively for assem-
bly work in the past 12 months. The load ensemble is:

L 1, i.e.: Km1 = 0.125.

The hour-meter of the superstructure indicates 800 h; the portion of service hours used for the winch is esti-
mated at 20 %,

i.e.: T1 = 160 h.

Thus, at the time of the first inspection, the consumed portion S1 of the theoretical service life amounts to:

S1 = ( Km1 : Km) x T1 = ( 0.125 : 0.125) x 160

S1 = 160 h

Consequently, the remaining theoretical service life amounts to:

D 1 = D - S1 = 3200 h - 160 h

D1 = 3040 h

These values must be recorded in the crane documentation (see Table).

Working life of the rope winch gear assemblies E-4

4.3.1 Example showing the determination of the consumed portion of the theoretical service life
(cont'd.)

Second inspection (after the second year of operation)


The crane has been used mainly for unloading work in a port during the past 12 months. The load ensemble
is: L 3, i.e. Km2 = 0.5.

The hour-meter of the superstructure indicates 2000 h, i.e. the crane has been operated for 2000 h - 8000
h = 1200 h (these 800 h have already been accumulated during the first year).

The portion of service hours consumed by the winch is estimated at 40% of the superstructure's service
hours,

i.e.:T2 = 480 h

Thus, at the time of the second inspection, the consumed portion S2 of the theoretical service life amounts to:
S2 = ( Km2 : Km) x T2 = ( 0.5 : 0.125) x 480

S2 = 1920 h

Consequently, the remaining theoretical service life amounts to:

D2 = D1 - S 2 = 3040 h - 1920 h

D2 = 1120 h

These values must also be recorded in the crane documentation (see Table).

Third inspection (after the third year of operation)


During the past 12 months, the crane has been used mainly for assembly work, and occasionally for unload-
ing work in a port. The load ensemble is: L 2, i.e. Km3 = 0.25.

The hour-meter of the superstructure indicates 3000 h, i.e. the crane has been operated for 3000 h - 800 h
- 1200 h = 1000 h during the third year of operation (2000 h have been accumulated in total during the first
and second years).

The portion of service hours consumed by the winch are estimated at 30 % of the service hours of the su-
perstructure,

i.e. T3 = 300 h

Thus, at the time of the third inspection, the consumed portion S3 of the theoretical service life amounts to:
S3 = ( Km3 : Km) x T3 = ( 0.25 : 0.125) x 300

S3 = 600 h

Consequently, the remaining theoretical service life amounts to:

D 3 = D2 - S 3 = 1120 h - 600 h

D3 = 520 h

These values must also be recorded in the crane documentation (see Table).

Operation of the machine in its fourth year


If the crane is to be used in this year of intended operation like in the third year of operation (mainly assem-
bly work and occasional use for unloading work in a port with the load ensemble L2 and with an expected
similar number of service hours), the winch of this crane can be assumed to require a general overhaul
approximately at the end of the fourth year of operation, as its theoretical service life limit will be reached
or even have been exceeded at that time.

Working life of the rope winch gear assemblies E-4

4.3.3 Example showing the determination of the consumed portion of the theoretical
service life in case of machine models with separate hourmeter for hoisting
winch**)

The mobile crane is equipped with a separate hourmeter for the hoisting winch. According to the Operating
Manual, the hoisting winch has the following rating:

Drive assembly group M3


Load ensemble L 1, Km = 0.125
Theoretical service life D = 3200 h

The consumed portion "Si" of the theoretical service life of the hoisting winch is calculated using the various
inspection intervals (once per year), as described below:

1. inspection (after the first year of operation)

The hoisting winch is equipped with a separate hourmeter. The crane has been used exclusively for
assembly work during the past 12 months. The load ensemble is:

L 1, i.e:. Km1 = 0.125.

The hoisting winch hourmeter indicates 160 hours.

i.e:. T1 = 160 h.

Consequently, at the time of the first inspection, the consumed portion S1 of the theoretical service life
amounts to: S1 = ( Km1 : Km) x T1 = ( 0.125 : 0.125) x 160

S1 = 160 h

Thus, the remaining theoretical service life amounts to:

D 1 = D - S1 = 3200 h - 160 h

D1 = 3040 h

These values must be recorded in the crane inspection booklet (refer to Table).

4.3.3 Example showing the determination of the consumed portion of the theoretical service life
(cont'd.)

2. inspection (after the 2nd year of operation)


The crane has been used mainly for unloading work in a port during the past 12 months. The load ensemble
is: L 3, i.e. Km2 = 0.5.

The hourmeter of the hoisting winch indicates 640 h, i.e. the crane has been operated for 640 h - 160 h =
480 h during the 2nd year of operation (these 160 h have already been accumulated during the first year).

i.e.:T2 = 480 h

Consequently, at the time of the second inspection, the consumed portion S2 of the theoretical service life
amounts to: S2 = ( Km2 : Km) x T2 = ( 0.5 : 0.125) x 480

S2 = 1920 h

Thus, the remaining theoretical service life amounts to:

D2 = D1 - S 2 = 3040 h - 1920 h

D2 = 1120 h

These values must also be recorded in the crane inspection booklet (refer to Table).

3. inspection (after the 3rd year of operation)


During this year, the crane has been used mainly for assembly work, and occasionally for unloading work in
a port. The load ensemble is: L 2, d. h. Km3 = 0.25.

The hourmeter of the superstructure indicates 940 h, i.e. the crane has been operated for 940 h - 160 h -
400 h = 300 h during the 3rd year of operation (640 h have already been accumulated in total during the first
and second years).

i.e.: T3 = 300 h

Consequently, at the time of the third inspection, the consumed portion S3 of the theoretical service life
amounts to: S3 = ( Km3 : Km) x T3 = ( 0.25 : 0.125) x 300

S3 = 600 h

Thus, the remaining theoretical service life amounts to:

D3 = D2 - S 3 = 1120 h - 600 h

D3 = 520 h

These values must also be recorded in the crane inspection booklet (refer to Table).

Operation of the machine in the following, 4th year


If the crane is to be used in this year of intended operation like in the third year of operation (mainly
assembly work and occasional use for unloading work in a port with the load ensemble L2 and with an
expected similar number of service hours), the winch of this crane can be assumed to require a general
overhaul approximately at the end of the fourth year of operation, as its theoretical service life limit will
be reached or even have been exceeded at that time.

5 Monitoring the slewing device


5.1 Inspection of the ring-gear securing pins

The securing pins of the ball-bearing slewing device may have to be retightened due to setting of the appro-
priate components. The tightening torques required to this effect are specified in the Operating Manual.

The first inspection of the securing pins is to be effected after approx. 100 service hours. The ring-gear pins
must be checked at regular intervals, depending on the actual operating conditions of the crane, at least,
however, every 500 service hours.

If the crane has been subjected to an inadmissible load during operation (e.g. a high shock load caused by a
load "dropping" in the rope, or similar stress), the pins of the ring-gear and the other supporting components
of the crane must be checked within the scope of an additional inspection.

1.1 General description

The ZF-AS TRONIC automatic transmission is adapted The transmission actuator and the clutch actuator are
to the engine by means of a standard dry clutch. Since the components most crucial to complete transmission
the clutch is also controlled by the ZF-AS TRONIC automation.
transmission system, the clutch pedal can be dispensed
with. The transmission actuator consists of the transmission
electronics, shift valves, shift cylinders and sensors.
The ZF-AS TRONIC consists of a basic transmission
and an integrated splitter and planetary group. The clutch actuator is electro-pneumatically controlled
and is responsible for the entire clutch actuation process.
The basic transmission is shifted using constant mesh
gears. The splitter and planetary group are synchronized.

A display in the dashboard shows the driver all the


system information required (e.g. gear stage, fault, etc.)

Comments:
1. Instructions for transmission ventilation in accordance with Installation Guidelines 1203 765 010 and
1328 765 001 must be followed.
2. A lithium saponified multipurpose grease of NLGI class 2 which is mixable with mineral oil is to be used at
greasing points (grease code KP2K-30 in acc. with DIN 51825 or ISO-L-XCCHB2 in accordance with ISO 6743-9).
3. Additives of any kind added later to the oil change the oil in a manner that is unpredictable, and they are therefore
not permitted. No liability of any kind will be accepted by ZF for any damage resulting from the use of such
additives.

General Information / Important Notes

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

The task of the PAT DS 350 Automatic Safe Load Indicator (ASLI) is to provide the crane operator
with important information required to operate the crane within the operating ranges described by the
manufacturer. With the help of various sensors, the ASLI monitors various crane functions and
continuously provides the crane operator with the performance data of the crane. These data change
continuously with the movement of the crane.
Whenever the crane approaches its load rating limits, the ASLI warns the crane operator by means of
an acoustic and a visual signal. As soon as the crane reaches an unacceptable operating condition,
all crane movements that might increase the load on the crane are also disabled.

The contents of this Manual is subject to alterations. PAT can accept no warranty for this material, including any related
warranty with respect to marketability and suitability for particular purposes. PAT can accept no warranty for errors in the
content of this Manual, nor for direct or indirect damage caused in connection with the provision and the use of this Manual.

General Information / Important Notes

2. IMPORTANT NOTES

The ASLI is an operating aid to warn the crane operator of an imminent overload or proximity of the
hook block to the boom head, in order to avoid possible damage to property or personal injury.
The system cannot be, and is not intended to be, a substitute for good judgement or experience on
the part of the crane operator, or for the application of recognised, safe working methods when using
cranes.

ATTENTION

The crane operator is not released from his obligation to operate the crane safely. He must
ensure that he fully understands and follows the notes and instructions displayed.
Before beginning work with the crane, the crane operator must carefully read and
understand the entire Manual to ensure that he is aware of the operation and limitations of
the ASLI.
Proper functioning depends on due daily inspection and compliance with the operating
instructions listed in this Manual. Please read section 5 of this Manual.

The ASLI can only offer the crane operator help if it is correctly adjusted, and the correct
load chart and the correct operating code have been selected for the particular rig
arrangement. To avoid damage to property and serious or even fatal injuries to persons, it
is essential to ensure that the ASLI is correctly adjusted before beginning crane work.

This system can be equipped with an external key-operated switch which is located on the
side of the housing of the central unit. This key-actuated switch bridges (overrides) the
control lever's shut-off function by the ASLI. This switch may only be actuated in
emergencies by authorized personnel. Non-compliance with these instructions may lead to
damage to property and serious or even fatal injuries to persons.

System description

3. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The PAT DS 350 Automatic Safe Load indicator system consists of a modular micro-processor
central unit, a display and control console as well as various sensors for recording the measured
values.

The system works according to the principle of variance comparison. The actual value which is
obtained by pressure measurement, is compared with the set values stored in the central data
memory, and evaluated by the microprocessor. When the limit values are reached, an overload
warning signal is triggered on the display and control console. At the same time, any crane
movements that could increase the load are disabled.
The crane-related data specified by the manufacture, such as load charts, boom weights, centres of
gravity and dimensions, are stored in memory chips in the central data memory. These data form the
reference values for calculating the operating states.
In some cases, the system function is controlled by automatic components such as boom length and
angle transmitters, and in other cases by manual devices, such as keys on the display and control
console.
The boom angle and the boom length are detected by a length-angle transmitter mounted on the
boom. The crane load is measured using pressure sensors mounted on the piston and rod sides of
the boom elevation cylinder.

System description

3.1 System functions

After the system is switched ON, it starts with an automatic test run of the ASLI system, the displays
and control elements as well as of the acoustic alarm.
During the test run, the start screen is displayed:

• The set-up menu is automatically displayed after the test run has been finished.
• First, the system expects entry of the mode code which corresponds to the instantaneous crane
configuration.
• The next step is entry of the rope fall arrangement (rope reeving).
• The entries are displayed in the form of symbols on the following confirmation screen.
• After confirmation, the entries are taken over by the system. Only now is the system ready to
operate.
In case of malfunction, an appropriate error code "E##" or "S##" appears on the data display (1).
(In this context, refer also to chapter 3.4 and chapter 7.)

3.2 Control console

The console has two functions:


• Inputs into the ASLI system by the crane operator (operation modes, numbers of rope falls)
• Indication of important data and information
The control console is located in the crane cabin in the crane operator's field of vision. To improve
identification of the displays and control elements, these are backlit during operation. The console
comprises various control elements as well as a multifunctional LCD; these are described in detail in
chapters 3.3 and 3.4.

Operation

(2) Utilization bar graph

This utilization bar graph display (2) indicates how much of the
loader‘s rated capacity is being used. (utilization)
As the rated capacity of the loader changes as it is moved through
its various motions, the utilization display will constantly change as
well.
The bar graph is marked with different colors:
• green: and safe section (0%...90% of rated cap.)
• yellow: prewarning section (90%...100% of rated cap.)
• red: overload section (>100% of safe working load)

(3) Function keys F1...F5

These keys can be used to select certain functions from among


menu symbols with selection options. The symbols above the keys
identify the function in question.
The meaning of the various symbols is shown in chapters 3.4 to
3.6 and in chapter 6.

(4) "ASLI override" warning lamp

This red warning lamp goes on if the ASLI shut-off feature has
been bridged manually.
(only, if signal input is wired to pin 2-3 of plug X2 of plug location A 102)

(5) "Hoist limit switch (HES) override" warning lamp

Operation

(6) "Hoist limit" warning lamp

This red warning lamp goes on if the contacts of the hoist limit
switch open, i.e. a hoist limit state has occurred. The acoustical
alarm sounds, while crane movements increasing the load
moment are stopped.

NOTE

A hoist limit state occurs if the hook block touches the


boom head. In this case, there is a risk of the winch rope
breaking and the load falling. The cause of the hoist limit
state may be that the load has been drawn against the
boom head or that the boom has been extended or lowered
without the corresponding length of winch rope having
been unwound.

(7) "Pre-warning load moment" warning lamp

This yellow pre-warning lamp goes on if the load of the crane


amounts to more than 90 % of the rated lifting capacity in question,
thus indicating an imminent overload situation.

ATTENTION

This means that the crane operator is only allowed to


continue crane work with extreme caution!

(8) "Overload" warning lamp

This red overload warning lamp informs the crane operator that an
overload condition has occurred.
It goes on when the load imposed on the crane has reached 100
% of the maximum lifting capacity which is admissible for the
current operating state. The acoustical alarm will sound. At the
same time, the crane movements increasing the load moment are
stopped.

These numerical keys are used for the following entries:


- Entry of the mode code (refer to chapter 4.1)
- Entry of the number of rope falls used (refer to chapter 4.2)

The keys and have no function !

(15) "Select" key (SEL)

The key "SEL" is used to call up the set-up menu for setting the
mode codes, the number of rope falls and the speed preselection
of the master controllers. Upon actuation, the hoist limit switch
warning lamp (7) and the overload warning lamp (8) go on, and the
ASLI shut-off feature is activated.

The correct setting of the ASLI for the rig arrangement in


question is extremely important for correct functioning of
the system and the crane. Thus, mode codes and the
number of rope falls may only be set by crane operators
who are absolutely familiar with load charts, utilization and
operation of the system.

The procedure for entering the mode code, the number of rope falls and the speed preselection for
the master controllers is described in chapter 4.

Operation

(16) "Limits" key (LIM)

Key used to program limitations of geometry.


(refer to chapter 4.6)

(17) "Tare" key (TARE)

The "TARE" key (17) serves to issue the net load to the actual
load indicator "ACT" (refer to chapter 3.4). The net load is the
actual load less load lifting equipment and hook block. The "TARE"
key must be pushed before hoisting operation is commenced.
After the key has been actuated, it lights up and the actual load
indication is set to zero (tared). After the load has been lifted, the
net load (payload) appears in the actual load indicator.
As soon as the working radius is changed (due to changes of the
angle or radius), the indicator displays again the actual load, and
the taring function is finished.

NOTE

The actual load comprises the hook block, the winch rope
and all load handling devices. The net load is the load
currently fixed to the hook, without load handling device.
Incorrect indications may be due to ambient influences,
e.g. the wind acting on a boom or the load.

(18) "Control" key (CTRL)

The "CTRL" (18) key serves to select the special functions. The
following special functions can be selected:
• Display contrast setting (see chapter 4.4).
• Zero point adjustment of pressure transducer
(refer to chp. 4.5)

4. PROGRAMMING

After switching ON the system, the operating parameters must first be entered according to the actual
rig arrangement of the crane. Here, it is essential that the crane operator's entries are made correctly!

This procedure consists of two parts:


• Programming the ASLI according to the crane's rig arrangement, using the correct operating code
for the selected load chart (refer to chapter 4.1).
• Input of the rope fall arrangement (rope reeving) according to the actual number of rope falls used
(refer to chapter 4.2).

Wrong input into the ASLI of the operating code and the number of rope falls used can
result in material damage and/or in serious, even fatal injury to persons.

The correct input of the operating code and the number of rope falls is essential for proper
functioning of the system and the crane.

Consequently, these entries may only be performed by crane operators who are absolutely
familiar with load charts and the application and control of the ASLI.

• The speed preselection for the master controllers can be performed in another menu. (refer to
chapter 4.3)

Checks before start-up

5. CHECKS BEFORE START-UP

Before crane work is commenced, the following electrical connections must be checked to ensure that
the ASLI system is correctly wired for the current crane rig arrangement.

❍ Cranes with main hoisting gear only


If the crane is working with the main boom, i.e. without boom extension or fly jib, no additional
connections are required. However, it is important to ensure that the hoist limit switch weight is
correctly mounted on the main boom winch rope. With an even number of rope falls, the hoist limit
switch weight is mounted at the "dead end" of the winch rope. With an odd number of rope falls, the
hoist limit switch weight is mounted at the rope fall with the lowest working speed.
If the crane is working with a main boom extension or fly jib, the connecting cable must be installed
between the distributor plugbox on the fly jib and the distributor plugbox on the main boom. The
weight of the hoist limit switch of the main boom must be removed and then mounted on the hoist limit
switch of the boom extension or of the fly jib.

If the hoist limit switch weight is not repositioned, the hoist limit switch system cannot work
properly. During work with the boom extension / fly jib, no weights should be mounted on
the hoist limit switch of the main boom.

❍ Cranes with main and auxiliary hoisting gear


If the main boom extension or fly jib is not used, the override plug must be inserted into the distributor
plugbox on the main boom and the hoist limit switch weight must be mounted on the main boom.
If the crane is working with a main boom extension or a fly jib, the connecting cable must be installed
between the distributor plugbox on the boom extension or the fly jib and the distributor plugbox on the
main boom. Moreover, weights must be mounted to the hoist limit switch of the main boom and the
boom extension or the fly jib.
If the boom extension or the fly jib is in working position, and if the main boom is not equipped with a
winch rope, then the weight of the hoist limit switch must be removed from the main boom in order to
eliminate any risk to persons or damage to the equipment.

After the electrical cable connections have been checked for the rig arrangement in question, the
following inspections must also be carried out:
1. Check all cable connections to the system components for damage.
2. Check the hoist limit switches and hoist limit switch weights for ease of movement.

Checks before start-up

3. Check the spring-loaded cable drum for ease of running, drum pre-tension and correct cable
winding.
4. Check the mechanical and the electrical installation of the load cells on the fly jib (if fitted).

The checks described below must be carried out carefully in order to prevent damage to the
crane and injury to persons. The correct function of the ASLI system depends on
successful completion of these checks before work is started. If the crane operator cannot
see the hook block while approaching the pulley head, he must instruct an assistant
(slinger) to help him. The crane operator must be ready to stop the crane immediately if the
ASLI system does not work correctly, that is, if the red warning lamps do not light up, the
acoustic alarm does not sound and crane movements, such as hoisting, telescopic
extension and lowering cannot be disabled.

Check the hoist limit switch warning lamp (6) and the acoustic alarm as follows:
1. Manually lift the weight attached to the hoist limit switch. As soon as the weight is lifted, the
acoustic alarm should sound and the Hoist limit switch warning lamp (6) should light up.
2. Use the main hoisting gear to pull the hook block slowly against the hoist limit switch weight. As
soon as the hook block starts lifting the weight, the acoustic alarm should be actuated, the hoist
limit switch warning lamp (6) should light up and the main hoisting gear should be switched off.
Lower the hook block slightly in order to terminate this state.
3. Lower the main boom slowly using the boom elevation in order to bring about a possible hoist limit
state. As soon as the hook block starts lifting the weight, the acoustic alarm should sound, the
hoist limit switch warning lamp (6) should light up and the boom elevation should be switched off.
Lower the hook block slightly in order to terminate this state.
4. Slowly extend the telescopic boom in order to bring about a possible hoist limit state. As soon as
the hook block starts lifting the weight, the acoustic alarm should sound, the hoist limit switch
warning lamp (6) should light up and the telescoping function should be switched off. Lower the
hook block slightly in order to terminate this state.

If the warning lamp and the acoustic alarm do not function as described, and if the crane
movements are not disabled, the system is not working properly. The fault must be
eliminated before work is started.

5. If the crane is fitted with a main boom extension or a fly jib, the test must be repeated for the hoist
limit switch of the boom extension / fly jib.

Checks before start-up

6. Check whether the displayed main boom length corresponds to the actual length.
7. Check whether the displayed angle of the main boom corresponds to the actual angle.
8. Check whether the displayed working radius of the crane corresponds to the actual working radius.
9. Check the load display by lifting a known weight. The accuracy of the load display must be within
the given tolerance.

5.1 Operation

After being set correctly, the ASLI is ready to operate. The crane operator must therefore be familiar
with all the control elements of the ASLI and enter the correct commands before the crane can start
work. All settings must be tested by lifting a known weight and comparing this with the information
displayed by the ASLI.
The figures in the load chart contain the weight of the hook block, the load securing ropes and other
load lifting devices. This combined weight must be deducted from the figures in the load chart in order
to determine the net load to be lifted.

If any of the displays shows a discrepancy between the values displayed and the actual
values, please contact your local PAT Service Centre for repair of your system or to have
calibration of the ASLI tested.

Any modification of the crane structure or changes to the crane require subsequent testing
of the ASLI's calibration.

6. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

Maintenance of the Automatic Safe Load Indicator comprises the inspection of the following:
1. Wiring connecting the various parts of the system. If a cable is damaged, it must be replaced
immediately.
2. The insulation of the length transmitter rope or the hoist limit switch cable and of the cable guides.
If the insulation is worn, or the cables guides damaged, these parts should be replaced.
3. Inspection of the hoist limit switch for ease of movement.
4. Inspection of the cable drum for sufficient pre-tension.
5. Inspection of the pressure sensors on the boom elevation cylinders and connection hoses for oil
leaks.

Staff who have not been specially trained may only eliminate the faults listed in the error
table, but must not replace any defective mechanical parts or cables.

7. TROUBLESHOOTING

7.1 General information

In the event of a malfunction or operator error detected by the system, a code "E xx" (ASLI error) or
"S xxxx" (control error) appears on the data display (1), thus specifying the reason for the malfunction.
The error codes listed in the error table explain the various errors that can occur in the ASLI system.
Faults in the ASLI system caused by exceeding the predefined ranges or through operator error
caused by the crane operator can normally be remedied by the crane operator himself. Faults in the
microprocessor system may only be remedied by factory-trained after-sales service staff. In this
case, please contact the PAT after-sales service.

INSTRUCTIONS 1 Shut-off values for boom cranes with variable load ratings
depending on variable working radius

The crane shut-off values are determined by us based on the load charts and design drawings specified by the
crane manufacturer.
These theoretical shut-off values must be checked by means of tests on the crane with weighed test loads for all
modes and at least with the following rig arrangements, depending on the crane design.
• Cranes with fixed boom length in operation:
Smallest, medium and largest radius for shortest, medium and longest boom length, as well as shortest,
medium and longest fly jibs for these boom lengths.

• Cranes with boom length variable in operation:


Smallest, medium and largest radius for each length increment as well as for all fly jibs.

INSTRUCTIONS 2 Important notes for the crane operator

The ASLI is an operating aid to warn the crane operator of an imminent overload or of the hook block
approaching the boom head, in order to avoid possible damage to property or personal injury.
This system cannot be, and is not intended to be, a substitute for good judgement or experience on the part of
the crane operator, or for the application of recognised, safe working methods when using cranes. The crane
operator is not released from his obligation to operate the crane safely. He must ensure that he fully
understands and follows the notes and instructions displayed. Before beginning work with the crane, the crane
operator must carefully read and understand the entire Manual to ensure that he is aware of the operation of the
ASLI and the crane. Proper functioning depends on due daily inspection of the system and compliance with the
operating instructions listed in this Manual.
The system can only offer the crane operator help if the ASLI is correctly adjusted, and the correct load chart
and the correct operating code have been entered for the particular rig arrangement. To avoid damage to
property and serious or even fatal injuries to persons, it is essential to ensure that the ASLI is correctly adjusted
before beginning crane work.

This system can be equipped with a key-operated switch which is located in the
microprocessor central unit. This key-operated switch overrides the ASLI's shut-off feature.
The switch may only be actuated in emergencies by authorized personnel. Non-compliance
with these instructions may lead to damage to property and serious or even fatal injuries to
persons.

INSTRUCTIONS 3 Important notes for the crane operating company


In the Federal Republic of Germany, the design of overload safety devices for cranes is subject to the directives
of VDI standard 3570 (VDI = Verein Deutscher Ingenieure - Association of German Engineers). The significance
and the limitations of overload safety devices are also pointed out in this directive.
"In the operation of cranes, overload safety devices are intended to prevent accidents and risks to persons,
property, the load and the crane as far as possible as a result of overloading. The crane operating company and
the crane operator must remember that an overload safety device cannot detect all hazards in good time, and
that a malfunction is possible through influences that are not apparent. For this reason, you cannot be released
from your obligation to exercise due care and from your responsibility for complying with the operating
regulations and the load limits of the crane. Overload safety devices must not be used for standard operation.
They should only react in emergencies. The load rating of the hoisting equipment must not be reduced by an
overload safety device."

VDMA Instruction Sheet for Overload Safety Devices (Automatic Safe Load Indicators)
for Boom Cranes
According to § 24 of the UVV (provisions for the prevention of accidents) "Boom cranes", the boom crane delivered to you is
equipped with an overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) which switches off the crane's hoisting gear and the
boom retracting mechanism when the admissible load moment is exceeded. In order to enable discharging after the
overload safety device has reacted, it must still be possible to perform a contrary movement. This means, for example, that it
must still be possible to lower the load after the hoisting gear has been switched OFF.

An overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) is installed to prevent crane use for lifting of loads which endanger
its stability. Thus, the overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) is an emergency switch which, in case of crane
overloads, shuts off all movements which might increase the load moment, and thus prevents possible damage or accidents.
In order to enable the overload safety device to fulfil its functions as a safety unit, please pay attention to the following
instructions:

1. Overload safety devices (automatic safe load indicators) must not be used for switching off the hoisting gear or the boom
retracting mechanism during normal operation. The crane operator has to make sure in all cases before such work that
the lifting capacity is not exceeded by the load to be lifted. Loads which exceed the lifting capacity of the crane must not
be lifted in spite of the fact that the overload safety device is installed. This device must not be used for weighing
purposes, and the crane must not be charged with loads exceeding the individually highest admissible load.

2. Tearing off fixed loads is only admissible if the crane manufacturer has agreed to it, and only with cranes which are
specially equipped for this purpose. During such operations, the overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator)
must not be used as load measuring equipment for normal operation.

3. The overload safety device installed in the crane must be serviced at regular intervals and checked for safe operation
before crane work. According to § 35 of the UVV (Provisions for the Prevention of Accidents) "Boom cranes", crane
maintenance work also comprises regular inspections of the overload safety device.

4. In general, the overload safety device is not automatically adjusted to the different modes of operation of the crane.
Therefore the crane operator is obliged to adjust the overload safety device to a different range of lifting capacities or
load moments, when the mode of operation of the crane is altered. To this effect, the operating instructions of the
manufacturer of the installed overload safety device must be complied with. Safe operation of the machine and crane
work free of accidents depend to a large extent on careful compliance with these instructions. An incorrectly set overload
safety device, e.g. a device which is set to a high load moment while the outriggers are retracted, is considerably more
dangerous than a crane without an overload safety device, as it conveys a feeling of safety to the driver, which is in fact
not justified, and which may cause serious accidents.

Annex: Important notes for crane operators and crane operating companies

5. The overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) installed must be adjusted by the crane driver to the different
ranges of lifting capacities or load moments, when the crane is adjusted to different modes of operation, such as:
a) when the outriggers are extended or retracted (switching over to the high or low load moment)
b) when the boom length is changed by:
- manual extending and retracting (telescoping)
- mounting or dismounting intermediate elements;
c) when the crane is swung or slewed into the range of the higher or lower stability moment (switching over to the high
or low load moment)
d) when changing over to a different lifting capacity range by fitting multiple rope falls to the hoisting gear or the boom
retracting mechanism.

6. Please note positively that the overload safety device cannot become effective, i.e. the drive assembly cannot be
switched off quickly enough when the crane is operated incorrectly. In this case, accidents cannot be precluded
completely in spite of the overload safety device being installed. This applies particularly to the following cases:
- the hook or the load lifting equipment is fixed underneath the load;
- excessive time-lag forces are effective;
- loads are dropped into the rope;
- the load is pulled diagonally;
- moving the crane in an area with significant ground slope;
- subsiding subsoil;
- wind load.

7. If an equipment for switching off or overriding the overload safety device (automatic safe load indicator) is installed, it
may only be used if particular precautions have been taken, and in the presence of the crane supervisors, e.g. during
crane inspections and during the operations intended by the crane manufacturer.

Careful compliance with the provisions comprised in this instruction sheet and in the operating manual
of the crane manufacturer is a prerequisite to safe operation of the overload safety device (overload
disconnect unit).
Should you have any doubts, please consult the manufacturer's Operating Manual. If it does not provide
sufficient information, it will be necessary to contact the company in question.
Unauthorized tampering with the overload safety device's mechanical components will rule out all
warranty claims.

INSTRUCTIONS 4 Notes on Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) in electronic


systems taking account of the effect of electromagnetic fields

Electromagnetic fields are having an increasing effect on electronic systems and may lead to malfunctions; to
avoid these, we have listed preventive measures in the following, according to the latest state of technology:

1. The preventive measures proceed primarily from the basic idea that the electronic circuits should be
shielded from irradiated high frequencies by a closed, low-resistance protective skin against high-frequency
interference.
− All components are equipped with metallic outer housings with earthing option;
− only cables with a braided screen are used. The screen must generously cover all connectors and must
be of high conductivity;
− coupling of the crane earth and the electronics earth in one single point of the system only.

2. The general precautions listed under Section 1 cannot assure complete protection against electromagnetic
fields in all cases, however, since the size and type of effect depend on local conditions.

Examples of such influencing factors are:


− particularly unfavourable arrangement of the aerials in relation to the system,
− very high transmission power,
− consistent compliance with measures of Section 1 not possible due to local conditions,
− long cables,
− coupling of interference into the supply leads.

In unfavourable conditions, one has no choice but to take experimental measures on site, in addition to the
preventive measures, while taking account of the principles mentioned in Section 1, for example:

• fitting filters or short-circuiting the interference frequencies using capacitors;


• establishing or separating earth connections;
• using a guarded shield system.

INSTRUCTIONS 5 Notes on industrial safety when repairing display and control


consoles

Caution: Liquid crystal displays contain liquid chemical substances in the display.
Particular caution and care are therefore necessary:

• when operating equipment containing liquid crystal displays


• during storage and transport (risk of breakage !)
• when disposing of unusable or excess liquid crystal displays

Possible sources of danger are chemical effects in the event of skin contact with broken
liquid crystal displays. In the event of contact, wash the affected skin areas thoroughly with
soap. Be particularly careful with open wounds !

INSTRUCTIONS 6 Installation instructions for display and control consoles without


closed metallic housing

To avoid radio interference, high-frequency devices and equipment coming under general approval
requirements published by the Federal Minister for Post and Telecommunications in his Official Gazette No.
163/1984 as Decree No. 1045/1984 and No. 1046/1984 must comply with the limit values and conditions laid
down there.
For display and control consoles without closed metallic housing (dashboard installation version), the conductor
screen must therefore be mounted on the dashboard directly in front of the console by means of a bare cable
clip.

Operation of the air conditioning system

Switching ON

For operation of your Wölfle air conditioning system, an additional knob for adjustment of the
thermostat with ON/OFF switch for air conditioner operation is located in the control element.

LED indicator "air condition ON" ON/OFF switch for air conditioning unit with temperature
selector function

Operation

The air conditioning only operates if the fan switch is set at least to stage 1.
The LED indicator "air condition ON" is lit. The condenser fan is running.
For maximum cooling effect:
- turn thermostatic switch to the right to its stop;
- turn the temperature switch to the left to its stop ("OFF" position);
- set fan to stage 3;
- set flap to "circulating air"
- close the door and the windows;
- open all air vents.

An individual conditioning comfort range can be adjusted for each crane operator via the air vents
which can be varied independently of one another, the thermostat control and the fan control.

You can also operate your air conditioning system in the cold season. Switched on together with
your heating, it keeps the air in the driver's cab dry and stops the window panes misting up. To do
so, it is sufficient to set the air condition's thermostatic switch to low capacity.

3
WÖLFLE GmbH Operating Instructions

Switching OFF

To switch off operation of the air conditioning system, turn the thermostatic control to the left to its
final stop in position "OFF".

Maintenance

The air conditioning system must be switched on briefly at least once per month. This operation is
required to ensure lubrication of the compressor.
The following maintenance work must be performed at the beginning, in the middle and at the end
of a cooling period:
- Check Vee belt tension and fastening of the compressor
- Check refrigerant filling
. To this effect, the refrigerant must pass the inspection glass of the liquid
tank free of bubbles when the engine is running and the air
conditioning system is operating at maximum capacity.
- Cleaning the condenser:
. The discs of the condenser must be cleaned gently without using high
pressure, as they would otherwise get bent.
The system should be checked in your workshop every year at the beginning of a refrigerating
period.
