2.2 Safety instructions for working with a lattice extension

2.2 Safety instructions for working with a lattice extension

This chapter contains additional safety instructions only for safe use of the lattice extensions described in these operating instructions.

Working at heights

If there is a danger of falling when doing work on the truck crane, suitable equipment must be used to prevent falling (e.g. ladder, lifting platform, auxiliary crane).

The lattice extensions are provided with clamps for positioning a ladder. Place the ladder between the clamps so it cannot slip off.

If despite using such equipment the risk of falling cannot be minimised you must protect yourself and any assisting personnel by using fall arrest systems.

The points at which the fall arrest system can be attached to on the truck crane are indicated by the symbol shown here.

Slinging

Attach slings to the sections only at the designated slinging points. If no slinging points are provided, refer to the centre of gravity data.

In this way you prevent the attached sections slipping off, falling and causing injury during installation or removal.

Retainers

Always secure the pins at the connection points and also at the holders using the appropriate locks. This prevents unsecured pins coming loose, falling out and causing injuries.

Rigging mode

For crane operation with the lattice extension folded away, comply with the rigging mode. This will prevent damage to the main or lattice extension, and prevent the lattice extension falling during crane operation.

For on-road driving with the lattice extension, comply with the rigging mode. This prevents the permissible vehicle width or height being exceeded.

Two cranes

Lifting loads simultaneously with two cranes is particularly dangerous. Carry out this type of work with special care.

4.2 Rigging work on the hose drum

4.2.2 Checking the locking device on the hose drum

The locking device must be undone before you operate with a lattice extension.

The locking device must be inserted before removal of the hose drum.

SRisk of damage to the hoses!

Always check if the locking device is released before beginning operation with a lattice extension. In this way you can prevent the hoses being torn off when telescoping.

GRisk of accidents from uncontrolled rotation of the hose drum!

The locking device must always be inserted before the hose drum is removed. Otherwise the hose drum will rotate uncontrollably against the holder and could injure you.

There are holes (1) distributed around the inner face of the hose drum.

A – Releasing the locking device

• Rotate the spring latch (2) so that it is not engaged in a bore (1).

B – Inserting the locking device

• Rotate the hose drum so that the spring latch (2) is aligned with a bore (1).

• Rotate the spring latch (2) so that it engages in the bore (1). The hose drum is now secured against rotation.

4.2 Rigging work on the hose drum

4.2.3 Positions of the hydraulic connections

Before operating the lattice extension, you must ensure the hydraulic connections are in the lattice extension operation position. Before working with the main boom for extended periods of time, you must place the hydraulic connections in the main boom operation position, so that the hose drum is not put under unnecessary strain.

GRisk of accidents from hoses springing back!

If you detach the hoses after the locking device has been released, do not under any circumstances let go of the hoses before they has been resecured. Otherwise the hoses will retract uncontrollably and can injure people or damage parts of the truck crane.

5Swing-away lattice

Swing-away lattice

5.1 Notes on this chapter

Where the lifting capacity tables use the term swing-away lattice extension, in this chapter the term swing-away lattice is used.

This chapter applies to:

–Swing-away lattice with and without head sheaves (1) on section4.

With head sheaves (1) it is designated as a swing-away lattice with heavy load lattice extension (ISS).

–Derricking swing-away lattice.

The angle is adjusted on the derricking swing-away lattice with the hydraulic cylinder (1).

Rigging work that applies only to this swingaway lattice is indicated in the checklists with the symbol (1.1).

–The inclinable swing-away lattice

The angle is adjusted on the inclinable swing-away lattice with the angle piece (2). Rigging work that applies only to this swingaway lattice is indicated in the checklists with the symbol (2.1).

Text that applies only to one of the swingaway lattices is explicitly indicated.

5.2 Operations planning

5.2.1 Assembly

SRisk of overturning in other combinations! Assemble the swing-away lattice only in the combinations listed as permissible in the lifting capacity table. Other combinations are not monitored by the RCL. CombinationDesignationZ + Y 1)

Permissible combinations

1) Designation in the lifting capacity table:

Z = length before setting the angle

Y = length after setting the angle

5.2.2 Identification

Risk of accidents when using an incorrect swing-away lattice! Install only the swing-away lattice that belongs to the truck crane. Other swing-away lattices must not be installed.

5.2.3 Slinging points

GRisk of accidents if used improperly! Attach slings to the swing-away lattice only at the designated slinging points. Use only lifting gear and joining elements of sufficient load bearing capacity.

Section1

The slinging points (1) are marked with stickers (2).

The sticker (3) gives data on the weight and the necessary lifting gear.

A guide rope (4) is fastened behind the head of section1.

Section3

The slinging points (1) are marked with stickers (2).

The sticker (3) gives data on the weight and the necessary lifting gear.

A strut (4) serves as the slinging point for the guide rope.

For section combinations, the slinging points and the information on weight and required lifting gear are specified on the stickers (1) and(2).

Example

For the section combination, section1 is folded onto section2, and section2 is mounted in front of section4.

The sticker (6) shows:

–The weight,

–The slinging points 3 and 7,

–The manner in which the lifting gear must be attached to the slinging points (5).

Slinging points 3 and 7 on the swing-away lattice are labelled with stickers having the corresponding numerals.

5.2.4 Transport dimensions and weights

5.2.5 Transport condition – removed

SRisk of damage to the lattice extension!

Always secure the lattice extension by tying it down with suitable belts when it is transported on a separate vehicle. This prevents the lattice extension from tipping over and becoming damaged during transportation.

GRisk of injury!

Before transport make sure that all pins are secured in the clamps with retaining pins. Secure any pins that are not secure. This way you prevent the pins from falling down while driving and injuring or even killing other persons.

GRisk of injury!

Before transport, ensure that all cables and hoses are securely fastened in the clamps and cannot come loose during driving. Additionally fasten the cables and hoses if necessary. This way you prevent the cables or hoses from falling down while driving and injuring or even killing other persons.

• Check that the heavy lattice load extension is secure for transport or secure it now, if necessary.

–All pins (1) are secured in the clamps.

–All electrical cables are wound onto the clamp (2) and closed with caps.

–Section3 is secured to a suitable support(3).

–All electrical cables (4) are closed with caps.

–The deflection sheave (5) is secured in the transport position.

SThere is a risk of damage to the lattice extension and the main boom! Always secure the swing-away lattice for on-road driving before driving the truck crane with a folded swing-away lattice. Only then is the swing-away lattice secured against slipping. This prevents the partly fastened swing-away lattice from hitting the main boom or the individual components of the swing-away lattice from hitting each other and becoming damaged.
