a number on it, which can be found in the list and in the illustrations below.
PM40 7107-E00 RISK OF GETTING CAUGHT BETWEEN BRAKE CYLINDER AND WALL - WATCH OUT!
During service or replacement work, the serviceman may be exposed to thepower of released
brake cylinders.
WARNING SIGN
This sign is attached to the steel bracket side at the open-air crane top entry.
PM40 7109-E00 RISK OF FALLING DOWN - USE SAFETY BELT!
During any visit to the crane top (e.g. for service jobs), the authorizing officer and the person
entering to the area must fully understand the risks involved.
WARNING SIGN
The safety belt must be worn during any visit to the crane top.
This sign is attached to the steel bracket side at the open-air crane top entry.
PM40 7110-E00 UNIT UNDER CONSTANT SPRING TENSION. USE PRESCRIBED TOOL FOR SERVICE
The label warns of the release of tension power of brake cylinders.
The exposed force of cylinders might expose personnel to specific risk.
CAUTION SIGN The risk is exposed only during service or replacement work.
Attached to fan houses on the open-air crane top and to wall surfaces near the top roof of the
crane.
PM40 7112-E00 RIDING ON CARGO FORBIDDEN
For the attention of the crane operator, to observe that the crane is a Cargo Handling device.
DANGER SIGN The crane operator is obliged to stop operation and to alert any person riding to keep off. The
operator’s alarm bell, in the crane operator’s cabin, may be used, preferably.
Attached to surfaces inside the cranehouse, close to pumps, valves, pipes and manifold blocks.
Also in the foundation close to oil tank and pipes.
Attached to cooling fans, at the open-air crane top, and at the inside top roof.
PM40 7117-E00 HIGH VOLTAGE INSIDE - DO NOT OPEN! AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
High voltage equipment, couplings and boxes are covered and do notexpose risk unless co-
vers or hoses are removed. Access is restricted to qualified and authorized personnel only.
DANGER SIGN
Attached to electrical equipment and boxes where 110 V or 440 V is exposed after covers are
removed.
PM40 7118-E00 RISK OF FALLING DOWN - APPLY SAFETY CHAIN!
During any visit to the work platforms, the authorizing officer and the person entering the area
must fully understand the risks involved.
WARNING SIGN The safety chains (at work platforms) must be used to prevent personnel from falling.
Attached to the steel bracket side at the open-air crane top platform, and at the crane work
platforms inside the cranehouse.
PM40 7122-E00 RISK OF BODILY INJURY - SUSPENDED LOAD - WATCH OUT!
The crane operator must ensure that the suspended load does not expose personnel below to
risks of falling material.
DANGER SIGN
The crane operator must stop operation and alert personnel.
The operator’s alarm bell in the crane operator’s cabin is preferably used.
Applied on the wall side of the crane operator’s cabin.
PM40 7123-E00 RISK OF GETTING CAUGHT BETWEEN WIRE AND WIRE SHEAVES - WATCH OUT!
This sign warns of the risk of moving wires that may catch and jam personnel.
WARNING SIGN The authorized visitor must be aware of the risk and be cautious to avoid being seriously hurt.
This sign is attached to the steel bracket side of the open-air crane top entry.
PM40 7124-E00 RISK OF BODILY INJURY. EMERGENCY OPERATION, AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
OPERATE WITH UTMOST CARE, SEE INSTRUCTION
Emergency operation of luffing and slewing, in the event of complete power failure or
DANGER SIGN main pump unit failure, is extremely difficult and dangerous.
This operation must be undertaken with great care and only by skilled personnel. Instructions
must be observed at all times.
Attached to the wall side of the crane operator’s cabin.
PM40 7125-E00 DANGER - KEEP OUT OF WORKING AREA!
The working area of the crane, over deck as well as over the deck-sides, is dangerous for
personnel, equipment or property. Items lifted or articles dropped may cause death, injury or
DANGER SIGN severe damage.
The crane operator must stop operation and alert personnel.
The operator’s alarm bell must also be used for attention.
Attached on both sides of the crane jib.
PM40 7126-E00 220V INSIDE, SEPARATE FEED, EVEN WHEN MAIN SWITCH (HA) IS SWITCHED OFF.
DO NOT OPEN! AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY.
High voltage equipment, couplings and boxes are covered and do not expose risk unless co-
DANGER SIGN vers or hoses are removed.
Boxes with this sign are powered even if main switch has shut off other electrical power.
Access is restricted to qualified and authorized personnel only.
Attached to electric boxes at work platforms and in the operator's cabin.
PM40 7127-E00 220V INSIDE. DO NOT OPEN! AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL ONLY
This high voltage equipment is covered and does not expose risk unless cover is removed.
The electrical equipment inside cover is powered even if the main switch has shut off other
DANGER SIGN electrical supply.
Access is restricted to qualified and authorized personnel only.
Attached to cooling fans, at the open-air crane top, and at the inside top roof.
This sign is attached to the steel bracket at the open-air crane top entry.
PM40 7137-E00BEFORE USING GRAB OR CARGO SPOTTING EQUIPMENT MAKE SURE THAT THE COR-
RECT FUSES ARE INSTALLED FOR THE EQUIPMENT TO BE USED.
TO SELECT THE CORRECT FUSES, SEE FUSE LIST ON THE INSIDE OF THE FUSE BOX
WARNING SIGN DOOR.
The grab equipment has a larger (electric) motor than the cargo spotting equipment. This must
be taken into consideration when using the same cable winch to operate the cargo spotting and
grab equipment.
Before switching over from grab to cargo spotting equipment, or vice versa, the fuses must be
changed in the fuse box.
If the wrong fuses are used, the following problems will occur:
1. When the cargo spotting equipment is used with the fuses intended for the grab equipment.
The cargo spotting motor will be overloaded and can be seriously damaged by fire. Over-
loading the motor can also cause short-circuiting in the motor cables and they can also be
seriously damaged.
2. When the grab equipment is used with the fuses intended for the cargo spotting equipment.
The fuses will blow immediately and the equipment will not be damaged.
This sign is attached to the fuse box at the main electric cabinet (HC).

CREW CHECKLIST
BEFORE TAKING CRANE INTO OPERATION
Note! When the crane is rigged ready for operation, all keys for all lockable switches must be stored in a safe
place by the officer responsible on board.
Read sections Operation and Maintenance in the instruction manual and make sure that maintenance is
performed according to Maintenance Chart.
Make sure nobody enters the crane without permission from responsible officer on board.
Make sure that there is nobody in the crane house who might be caught in the machinery or strangled by
the wire ropes.
