OPERATING CONDITION
NOTE
Material handling cranes all have overload shutdown and/or tilt
warning (unstable) systems. Always apply PARKING BRAKE con-
trol (WP 0041) prior to crane operation.
Crane has a yellow caution light at a fixed operator's station and an
audible warning signal that alerts the operator when an unstable
crane condition occurs.
Crane has an overload shutdown system which senses lift cylinder
pressure to prevent overloading the crane. The system will shut
down the crane to prevent hoisting, boom extension, or boom rais-
ing when an overload condition exists. Load lowering and boom
retraction functions will not be affected.
NOTE
The crane operating instruction plates are located on the heater
compartment cover in the cab and at each of the fixed operating
station.
The outrigger leg plates are located on each of the outrigger cylin-
ders.
METRIC SYSTEM
The equipment described herein contains metric components and requires metric, common,
and special tools. Therefore, metric units and English units will be used throughout this
publication. An English-to-metric conversion table is included as the last page of this manual
inside the back cover.
