 NOTES FOR LIFTING CAPACITIES
GENERAL:
1. Rated loads as shown on lift chart pertain to this machine as originally manufactured and equipped. Modifications to the machine or
use of optional equipment other than that specified can result in a reduction of capacity.
2. Construction equipment can be hazardous if improperly operated or maintained. Operation and maintenance of this machine shall be
in compliance with the information in the Operator’s and Safety Handbook, Service Manual and Parts Manual supplied with this machine.
If these manuals are missing, order replacements from the manufacturer through the distributor.
3. The operator and other personnel associated with machine shall fully acquaint themselves with the latest American National Safety
Standards (ASME/ANSI) for cranes.
SETUP:
1. The machine shall be level and on a firm supporting surface. Depending on the nature of the supporting surface, it may be necessary
to have structural supports under the outrigger floats or tires to spread the load to a larger bearing surface.
2. For outrigger operation, all outriggers shall be properly extended with tires raised free of crane weight before operating the boom or
lifting loads.
3. When machine is equipped with center front stabilizer, the front stabilizer shall be set in accordance with instructions in Operator's and
Safety Handbook.
4. When equipped with removable and/or extendible counterweight, the proper counterweight shall be installed and fully extended before
and during operation.
5. Tires shall be inflated to the recommended pressure before lifting on rubber.
6. With certain boom and hoist tackle combinations, maximum capacities may not be obtainable with standard cable lengths.
7. Unless approved by the crane manufacturer, do not travel with boom extension or jib erected unless otherwise noted. Refer to Operator's
and Safety Handbook for job-site travel information.
OPERATION:
1. Rated loads at rated radius shall not be exceeded. Do not attempt to tip the machine to determine allowable loads. For clamshell or
concrete bucket operation, weight of bucket and load must not exceed 80% of rated lifting capacities.
2. All rated loads have been tested to and meet the requirements of SAE J1063 - Cantilevered Boom Crane Structures - Method of Test,
and do not exceed 85% of the tipping load on outriggers fully extended. Capacities correspond to DIN 15019 Part 2 (Test Load = 1.25P
+ 0.1A) on outriggers 50% and 0% extended (fully retracted). 0.1A represents one tenth (0.10) of the total boom weight reduced to the
boom point. Loads are also determined by SAE J765 - Crane Stability Test Code.
3. Rated loads include the weight of hookblock, slings and auxiliary lifting devices and their weights shall be subtracted from the listed
rating to obtain the net load to be lifted. When more than the minimum required parts of line needed to pick the load are used, the
additional rope weight as measured from the lower sheave(s) of the nose supporting the unused device shall be considered part of the
load to be lifted. When both the hook block and headache ball are reeved, the lifting device that is NOT in use, including the line as
measured from the lower sheave(s) of the nose supporting the unused device shall be considered part of the load.
4. Load ratings are based on freely suspended loads. No attempt shall be made to move a load horizontally on the ground in any direction.
5. The maximum in-service wind speed is 32 km/h. It is recommended when wind velocity is above 32 km/h, rated loads and boom lengths
shall be appropriately reduced. For machines not in-service, the main boom should be retracted and lowered with the swing brake set
in wind velocities over 48 km/h.
6. Rated loads are for lift crane service only.
7. Do not operate at a radius or boom length where capacities are not listed. At these positions, the machine may overturn without any
load on the hook.
8. The maximum load which can be telescoped is not definable because of variations in loadings and crane maintenance, but it is safe
to attempt retraction and extension of the boom within the limits of the capacity chart.
9. When the boom length or lift radius or both are between values listed, the smallest load shown at either the next larger radius or next
longer or shorter boom length shall be used.
10. For safe operation, the user shall make due allowances for his particular job conditions, such as: soft or uneven ground, out of level
conditions, high winds, side loads, pendulum action, jerking or sudden stopping of loads, experience of personnel, two machine
(tandem) lifts, traveling with loads, electric wires, obstacles, hazardous conditions, etc. Side pull on boom or jib is extremely dangerous.
11. If machine is equipped with individually controlled powered boom sections, the boom sections must be extended equally at all times.
12. Never handle personnel with this machine unless the requirements of the applicable national, state, and local regulations and safety
codes are met.
13. Keep load handling devices a minimum of 107 cm below boom head at all times.
14. The boom angle before loading should be greater than the loaded boom angle to account for deflection.
15. Capacities appearing above the bold line are based on structural strength and tipping should not be relied upon as a capacity limitation.
16. Capacities for the 8.8 m boom length shall be lifted with boom fully retracted. If boom is not fully retracted, capacities shall not exceed
those shown for the 12.2 m boom length.
17. When operating the machine in the "On Outriggers 50% Extended (4.3 m spread)" mode, the outrigger beam pins must be engaged.
When operating in the "On Outriggers 0% Extended (2.4 m spread)" mode, the outrigger beams must be fully retracted. Failure to follow
these precautions could result in structural damage or loss of stability of the machine.
18. Regardless of counterweight and outrigger spread configuration, no deduct is required from the main boom charts for a stowed boom
extension.
19. Do not lift loads when boom is fully lowered. The Load Moment Indicator (LMI) senses pressure and will not provide warnings or lockout.
The crane can become overloaded if lift cylinder(s) is fully retracted.
19. The maximum outrigger pad load is 22,498 kg.
DEFINITIONS:
1. Operating Radius: Horizontal distance from a projection of the axis of rotation to the supporting surface before loading to the center
of the vertical hoist line or tackle with load applied.
2. Loaded Boom Angle (Shown in Parenthesis on Main Boom Capacity Chart): is the angle between the boom base section and the
horizontal, after lifting the rated load at the rated radius with the rated boom length.
3. Working Area: Areas measured in a circular arc about the center line of rotation as shown on the working area diagram.
4. Freely Suspended Load: Load hanging free with no direct external force applied except by the lift cable.
5. Side Load: Horizontal force applied to the lifted load either on the ground or in the air.

SET-UP AND INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

GENERAL

This section provides procedures for installing the hoist

cable on the hoist drum, cable reeving, and erecting and
stowing the boom extension.

INSTALLING CABLE ON THE HOIST

CAUTION

IF CABLE IS WOUND FROM THE STOR-

AGE DRUM, THE REEL SHOULD BE
ROTATED IN THE SAME DIRECTION AS
THE HOIST.

NOTE

The cable should preferably be straight- Installing the Cable Anchor Wedge
ened before installation on the hoist
drum.
5. Slowly rotate the drum, ensuring the first layer of

lowing procedure.
6. Install the remainder of the cable, as applicable.
1. Position the cable over the boom nose sheave and
route to the hoist drum. CABLE REEVING
2. Position the hoist drum with the cable anchor slot on
top. Note

3. Insert the cable through the slot and position around There are two types of cable (wire rope)
the anchor wedge. available on this crane; 6 x 36 WS and 35
x 7 (non-rotating).
NOTE

The end of the cable should be even with
the bottom of the anchor wedge.
4. Position the anchor wedge in the drum slot; pull
firmly on the free end of the cable to secure the
wedge.
NOTE
Within the limits of the load and range charts and permis-
sible line pull, multi-part lines allow the operator to raise
a greater load than can be raised with a single part line.
Various cable reeving (part line) is possible with the
boom nose and hook block. This reeving should be
accomplished by a qualified rigger using standard rigging
procedures, see “” figure on page 6-3.

If the wedge does not seat securely in the In order to quick reeve the hook block without removing
slot, carefully tap the top of the wedge the wedge socket on the end of the cable, see “Quick
with a mallet. Reeving Hook Block” figure on page 6-4.
