Important information 1.6 Safety instructions for truck crane work

1.6

Safety instructions for truck crane work Carefully select a safe site for the truck crane to stand from where you can safely work.

Walk around the truck crane before beginning crane work. Check the condition of the truck crane carefully using the check lists in the operating instructions. Do not assume that everything is in working order simply because it was in working order when work was last completed.

Before commencing work with the crane, check daily that all covers and safety devices are correctly fitted and in an acceptable condition.

Check the safety devices each day before beginning work (SLI, lifting limit switch, dead man’s switch, emergency stop switch for crane control).

When doing rigging or maintenance work above head height, use the intended climbing aids. Do not use machine parts as limbing aids.

Step only on those machine parts which are equipped with appropriate steps and railings and therefore guarantee safety. During rigging and maintenance work on machine sections above body height which have no apparatus for walking, use the extendable ladder which accompanies the machine (e.g. when reeving the hoist cable on the boom nose).

Keep all handles, steps, step treads and ladders free of dirt, snow and ice.

Check all operating and control elements in the crane operator’s cab before starting the crane engine.

Monitor all warning and indicator lamps as well as the control instruments when the engine is started!

Make sure that there are no unauthorised people in the vicinity of or on the truck crane when rigging or during crane work. Secure the danger zone using cordons and label them as such.

When lifting a load, raise the boom to balance out the increase in radius caused by the boom bending so that the load is lifted up when in a vertical position and does not drag, injure helpers or fall into the hoist rope diagonally (e.g. from a vehicle or scaffold). Inform banksmen and helpers about this as well.

Ensure that the truck crane is horizontally aligned before carrying out crane work.

Important information 1.6 Safety instructions for truck crane work

Only use equipment (counterweight sections, lattice extensions) that belongs to your truck crane. The serial number of both the truck crane and the equipment must be identical.

Simultaneously lifting loads with two cranes is particularly dangerous.

Use extreme caution when carrying out this type of work.

Always put down the load before you stop work.

Lock the truck crane when you leave the cab to prevent unauthorised use.

26.01.2001

Crane work carried out in the vicinity of supply lines such as oil, gas and power lines is dangerous and requires that special precautionary measures be taken. Please refer to the section titled Crane operation under special operating conditions in the Safety manual and note the relevant national regulations.

Two-stage swing-away lattice extension

H 3.1

The correct designation “two-stage swing-away lattice extension” is in this chapter substituted with the designation “lattice extension” in order to improve readability.

Operating and display elements If the GMK 5200/6220 is rigged with a two-stage swing-away lattice extension, certain operating and display elements in the crane cab are also applicable to operating the lattice extension.

This section describes all operating and display elements required for the operation of the lattice extension.

Furthermore, this chapter describes the operating elements located directly on the lattice extension.

Two-stage swing-away lattice extension 3.2 Identification

3.2

Identification The two-stage swing-away lattice extension is designed for the truck crane with which it was delivered. The two-stage swing-away lattice extension parts belonging to the truck crane have the same serial number as the truck crane.

The following parts are identified by the serial number: – the 12.5 m (41 ft) section on the fixed section, – the 12.5 m (41 ft) section on the luffing section, – the 9 m (30 ft) section.

S H

For technical reasons a truck crane may only be set with one two-stage swing-away lattice extension.

If you wish to use the two-stage swing-away lattice extension on several GROVE truck cranes, the two-stage swing-away lattice extension sections must be adjusted for the corresponding cranes and labelled with all of the respective serial numbers.

The two-stage swing-away lattice extension should only be adjusted by your local GROVE Customer Support!

26.01.2001

S

Operate only two-stage swing-away lattice extension sections which have the same serial number as the crane.

The SLI is only set for this two-stage swing-away lattice extension.

This prevents malfunctions and damage.

The slinging points for the different rigging modes of the two-stage swing-away lattice extension can be seen in the following diagram.

Attach the sections only on these slinging points because they will then automatically have the correct centre of gravity and use only lifting gear with sufficient load bearing capacity; ➠ Weight of individual parts, p. 2-1.

On the 12.5 m section there are five slinging points (welded-on rope holders). The following diagram shows which slinging points you must use for particular rigging modes.

Slinging points for the 12.5 m section alone

• Sling the 12.5 m section alone onto the two slinging points (4) and (5) so that it is in the centre of gravity.

• Guide the sling rope from outside around the struts onto the slinging points to prevent tipping to the side.

Slinging points for 22 m two-stage swingaway lattice extension, 9 m section folded at the side

• Sling the folded 22 m two-stage swingaway lattice extension only onto the two slinging points (3) and (5) so that it is in the centre of gravity.

Preparing the truck crane for rigging

Requirements for rigging

Before you rig a two-stage swing-away lattice extension, the following requirements must be met: – The two-stage swing-away lattice extension is attached to the side of the main boom and is in transport condition.

– The counterweight version required acc. to the Lifting capacity table for the planned operation when the lattice extension is rigged.

– The truck crane is supported with the prescribed outrigger span for the planned operation with the lattice extension according to the Lifting capacity table and is aligned horizontally.

– The main boom is completely retracted and has been lowered into horizontal position.

– If the truck crane is equipped with two hoists with additional equipment, the hook block is unreeved on the hoist which is not used for working with the lattice extension.

Requirements for unrigging

Before you lower a two-stage swing-away lattice extension into a horizontal position, the following requirements must be met: – No other load is raised outside the hook block.

– The required counterweight version for operation with the rigged lattice extension according to the Lifting capacity table is rigged.

– The truck crane is supported with the outrigger span prescribed for operation with the rigged lattice extension according to the Lifting capacity table.

– The main boom is fully retracted (0/0/0/0/0).

– The lattice extension is raised completely.

– The SLI code is entered for operation with the rigged lattice extension.

Two-stage swing-away lattice extension 3.6 Description of rigging work

3.6.2

Checking the transport condition For transportation you must establish certain connections between both parts of the lattice extension. The connections which need to be established depend on whether the lattice extension: – is folded up at the side of the main boom for transportation or – is completely removed for transportation.

Transport condition is when the lattice extension has been removed as described in the corresponding checklists.

S

Be careful not to damage the lattice extension and the main boom!

Always put the lattice extension into transport condition before driving the truck crane with a lattice extension folded at the side or working with the main boom.

Only then is the lattice extension secured against slipping.

In this way you prevent the partly fastened lattice extension hitting the main boom or the individual components of the lattice extension hitting each other and becoming damaged.

You must check transport condition: – After unrigging the lattice extension, before you drive the truck crane with the lattice extension folded at the side or work with the main boom.

– Before installation and before rigging the lattice extension.

The corresponding checklists require that the lattice extension is in transport condition.

3.6.3

Hose drum for hydraulic supply The hydraulic supply for the lattice extension is via a hose drum on the left-hand side of the main boom.

Depending on the driving mode of the truck crane the hose drum must be removed for on-road driving with a maximum axle load of 12 t; ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Part 1, Chapter Driving with the truck crane, Section Checking the truck crane before driving – Driving mode table.

When working with the main boom for longer the hydraulic connection between the hose drum and the main boom head should be disconnected.

This prevents the unnecessary reeling and unreeling of the hose.

The following rigging processes are described in this section: – Locking device for transportation; ➠ Locking device for transportation, p. 3-36.

– Installation of the hose drum; ➠ Installing hose drum, p. 3-36.

– Removal of the hose drum; ➠ Removing hose drum, p. 3-38.

– Establishing and disconnecting the connection between the hose drum and the main boom head; ➠ Hydraulic connection, p. 3-38.

Locking device for transportation

The hose drum is equipped with a locking device. The locking device prevents the hose drum twisting unchecked against the holder when releasing the strain relief because of initial tension.

You must always insert the locking device before releasing the strain relief (1) from the holder (2) on the main boom.

26.01.2001

You may release the anti-twist device only after you have attached the strain relief (1) back in the holder (2) on the main boom.

Operating instructions for lattice extension GMK 5200/6220

Two-stage swing-away lattice extension 3.6 Description of rigging work

S

Risk of accidents from unchecked turning hose drum!

You may release the anti-twist device only when you have attached the strain relief on the main boom beforehand.

By doing this you prevent the hose drum twisting unchecked against the holder and the turning hydraulic hoses injuring other people.

There are eight bores (1) above the radius on the inner flanged wheel (2) of the hose drum.

Inserting anti-twist device

• Turn the hose drum until a bore is in front of the spring latch (3).

• Move the spring latch into the bore, the hose drum is secured against twisting.

Removing anti-twist device

• Attach the strain relief on the main boom before removing.

• Withdraw spring latch (3) from the bore in the flanged wheel.

Installing hose drum

If the hose drum has been removed for on-road driving, you must reinstall it before working with the lattice extension.

• Attach the hose drum to the recesses (1) with an auxiliary crane.

• Lift the hose drum onto the left side of the main boom.

• First move the upper threaded pins (6) diagonally from below into the retaining sheets (5).

• Then swing the hose drum down onto the main boom so that the lower threaded pins (3) slide into the retaining sheet (2).

• Insert the spacer sheets (4).

26.01.2001

Raising the setting down the main boom with rigged lattice extension The information in this section also applies to raising and setting down the main boom with a rigged boom extension.

Risk of overturning with a reeved hook block on the main boom head!

If an SLI code has been entered for work with the lattice extension, the load is measured via pressure sensors on the lattice extension.

An additional load is not detected on the main boom here.

Therefore unreeve the hook block on the main boom head before working with the lattice extension. This prevents the SLI calculating with the wrong values and the truck crane tilting before the SLI switches off.

To raise and set down the main boom with a rigged lattice extension the main boom must be fully retracted because the SLI then automatically switches to the rigging program.

To raise and set down the following requirements must be met:

00== !

– The SLI code for the actual rigging mode is set on the SLI with the 13 m swing-away lattice extension or 22 m two-stage swing-away lattice extension; ➠ Setting rigging mode, p. 12-16.

– The current reeving of the hoist rope on the lattice extension is entered.

– Apart from the hook block there is no load on the lattice extension.

• Derrick in the main boom to raise.

Telescoping with rigged lattice extension

S H

The main boom may be overloaded!

If you telescope the main boom with a rigged lattice extension or boom extension, you must not rotate the superstructure at the same time.

This prevents the main boom being subject to additional side forces and increased vibration and possibly becoming overloaded.

The information in this section also applies to telescoping with a rigged boom extension.

Telescoping with a load is released by the SLI only for loads which are below the values of the rigging programs.

Telescoping with a rigged lattice extension is released by the SLI only if the main boom is raised to an angle of approx. 75° - 80° (the exact angle depends on the length of the lattice extension; ➠ Rigging programs in the lifting capacity table).

If the main boom angle is too small for telescoping with the rigged lattice extension angle, the SLI shows the corresponding error message.

• Put down the load.

• Raise the main boom to an angle necessary according to the rigging program (➠ Rigging programs in the lifting capacity table).

• Telescope the main boom to the required length and observe the hook block when doing so; lower and raise it using the hoist.

Do not actuate the slewing gear when telescoping.

H H

Operation with the lattice extension The information in this section also applies to operation with the boom extension.

If a hook block is reeved on the main boom during operation with the lattice extension, the loads given in the Lifting capacity tables decrease. The values which must be taken from the load capacities depend on the length of the lattice extension and the weight of the hook block and are entered in their own table in the Lifting capacity tables.

G H SLI shutdown

Risk of overturning with a reeved hook block on the main boom head!

If an SLI code has been entered for work with the lattice extension, the load is measured via pressure sensors on the lattice extension. An additional load is not detected on the main boom here.

Always determine the reduced load for the current rigging mode (given load minus value for the reduction with a reeved hook block) and lift only loads which are in accordance with the maximum reduced load.

This prevents the SLI calculating with the wrong values and the truck crane tilting before the SLI switches off.

The hoisting, lowering, slewing, derricking and telescoping movements of the main boom are done in the same way as when operating with the main boom. Telescoping is permitted only at main boom angles of approx. 75 - 80°, depending on the length of the lattice extension (exact value ➠ Rigging programs in the Lifting capacity table).

When working with the 13 m swing-away lattice extension or the 22 m twostage swing-away lattice extension, operation is always monitored by the SLI. SLI shutdowns can occur during lattice extension operation for the same reasons as with main boom operation; ➠ p. 12-26.

The angle of the lattice extension is also monitored and if the permitted angle of the lattice extension is not adhered to, the SLI switches off and shows a corresponding error message.

Procedure if the permissible wind speed is exceeded

Strong winds can overstrain the truck crane. Closely observe therefore the instructions in the Effect of wind on crane operation, p. 12-32.

Procedure when exceeding the permissible wind speed during operation with the lattice extension or boom extension Wind speed less than 20 m (66 ft)/s

Wind speed greater than 20 m (66 ft)/s

• Put down the load.

• Put down the load.

• Turn the superstructure in such a way that the main boom provides the wind with as little working surface as possible

• Completely retract the main boom.

26.01.2001

• Set the lattice extension down.

Two-stage swing-away lattice extension 3.7 Turning loads with the two-stage swing-away lattice extension

3.7

Turning loads with the two-stage swing-away lattice extension When turning loads it is necessary to employ a two-hook operation.

The only type of two-hook operation technically possible and protected by the SLI is described in this chapter using the turning of loads as an example.

G G H 3.7.1

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

Lifting a load with two hooks is permissible only if the following instructions and illustrations are observed!

If these instructions are not observed, accidents could occur due to individual parts of the truck crane being overloaded! The SLI then no longer gives protection.

Two-hook operation with the two-stage swing-away lattice extension is not permitted!

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

The load must always be lifted completely with the weakest part first (lattice extension).

You can find the position and function of the required operating instruments in the supplied GMK 5200/6220 Operating Instructions.

Requirements The following description requires that: – the main hoist rope is reeved on the main boom and – the auxiliary hoist rope is reeved on the two-stage swing-away lattice extension and

26.01.2001

– the lifting limit switches for both hoisting gears are connected.

G

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

The reeving on the main boom must be equal to or greater than that on the lattice extension!

If this condition is not fulfilled, the main hoist rope and main hoisting gear will become overloaded.

Setting SLI

H

Cü ü

For two-hook operation both hoists must be activated on the SLI. It is advisable to enter the reevings for both hoists at the start. The values are stored and called up directly when switching hoisting gears. This eliminates the need for input later during operation. Proceed as follows:

• Switch both hoists off.

To do this press down both rocker switches Auxiliary hoist shutdown and Main hoist shutdown.

• Switch on the main hoist.

To do this push up the rocker switch Main hoist shutdown.

Lamp I for the main hoist lights up in the Hoists position lamps.

• In the display Reeving, enter the quantity of reeved rope on the main hoist rope of the main boom.

§

Now the reeving for the main hoist is stored and you can switch to the auxiliary hoist.

Cü C

• Switch off both hoists.

To do this press down both rocker switches Auxiliary hoist shutdown and Main hoist shutdown.

• Switch on the auxiliary hoist.

To do this push up the rocker switch Auxiliary hoist shutdown.

On the indicator lamps Hoists lamp II is flashing for the auxiliary hoist.

3 - 78

Now the reeving for the auxiliary hoist is also stored and you can switch on the main hoist.

• In the display Reeving, enter the quantity of reeved rope on the auxiliary hoist rope of the lattice extension.

Two-stage swing-away lattice extension 3.7 Turning loads with the two-stage swing-away lattice extension

ü

• Switch the main hoist on by pressing the Main hoist shutdown rocker switch up.

On the display lamps Hoists, lamp II is now lit for the auxiliary hoist and lamp I is flashing for the main hoist.

11==

H Turning load

The SLI is thus set for two-hook operation; it now takes into consideration the reeving for the auxiliary hoist and the lifting capacity tables for the lattice extension.

In two-hook operation the loads given in the Lifting capacity table are reduced by the weight of both reeved hook blocks.

To turn loads, proceed only in the manner described as follows.

Keep the acceleration force as low as possible during two-hook operation.

Therefore move the load at the lowest possible speed!

If the load is on two hooks, there will be slight differences in the Actual load display. However, the differences are on the safe side with regard to SLI deactivation.

If the load is on two hooks, you must not change the SLI code to Operation with main boom; it must be set to Operation with the lattice extension throughout the lifting process.

26.01.2001

S H H

• Set the SLI code for operation with the telescopic swing-away lattice extension which is valid for the current rigging mode of the truck crane.

• Lift the load fully with the lattice extension.

• Only now should you attach the load to the hook block of the main boom as well.

• Now lift the load with the hook block on the main boom until both slinging points are at the same height.

• Slacken the hoist rope on the lattice extension until the load is only hanging from the hook block on the main boom.

3.8

Driving with rigged crane and two-stage swing-away lattice extension installed This section describes moving the truck crane with an installed counterweight and rigged two-stage swing-away lattice extension.

G G 3.8.1

Risk of accidents!

It is forbidden to move the truck crane with a suspended load.

Put the load down before you move the truck crane.

Secure the hook block so that it cannot swing.

Risk of overturning!

Before a rigged crane can be driven the superstructure must be locked and the slewing gear permanent brake must be engaged.

Driving route The route must be a flat, even surface. The level adjustment system cannot compensate for uneven surfaces. If the surface pressure of the tyres exceeds the permissible load on the ground, the surface pressure must be increased using packing made of durable material (e.g. wooden planks).

26.01.2001

S

Risk of tyre damage!

Check the pressure in the tyres before the rigged truck crane is moved!

The truck crane may only be moved if the tyres have been inflated to the required air pressure; ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Part 2, Chapter Technical information, Section Carrier – Tyres.

Do not reduce the tyre pressure!

3.8.2

Rigging modes and axle loads The vehicle may only be moved if certain conditions are met. The boom may have to be moved to a specified position, depending on the installed counterweight.

S 00==

Damage may occur to the axle lines!

Always move the boom to the prescribed position before you move the rigged truck crane. The permitted load on the axle lines will be exceeded if the boom is in a position which deviates from the prescribed position.

• Set the appropriate SLI code for the rigging mode on the safe load indicator. The SLI codes are found in the Lifting capacity table.

• Move the boom into the prescribed position. The prescribed boom position can be found in the following tables.

26.01.2001

G

Risk of accidents if SLI is overridden!

Always set the SLI rigging code corresponding to the current rigging mode when you derrick the main boom into the prescribed position. Do not override the SLI; the prescribed positions in the following tables all lie within the areas which are permitted according to the Lifting capacity tables.

The truck crane safe load indicator does not function when the SLI is overridden!

Operation with the auxiliary single-sheave boom top

H SLI deactivation

If an auxiliary single-sheave boom top is folded on during operation with the main boom, the loads detailed in the Lifting capacity tables decrease by the weight of the auxiliary single-sheave boom top; ➠ Weight of the auxiliary single-sheave boom top, p. 2-1.

Hoisting, lowering, rotating, derricking and telescoping the main boom are carried out as for operation with the main boom. The SLI enables telescoping only for main boom angles of approx. 75-80° (precise value ➠ Installation graphs in the lifting capacity table).

When working with the auxiliary single-sheave boom top, operation is monitored by the SLI. When operating with the auxiliary single-sheave boom top, SLI deactivations may occur for the same reasons as for operation with the main boom; ➠ Operating instructions.

What to do if the permissible wind speed has been exceeded

Strong winds can overstrain the truck crane. It is therefore necessary to pay attention to the information in Effect of wind on crane operation in the GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Chapter Crane operation, Section Crane work with the main boom.

What to do if the permissible wind speed has been exceeded during operation with the auxiliary single-sheave boom top Wind speed below 20 m (66ft)/s

Wind speed above 20 m (66 ft)/s

• Lower load to the ground.

• Lower load to the ground.

The load must always be raised completely starting with the weakest part (auxiliary single-sheave boom top).

Regarding position and function of necessary operating instruments; ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Part 2, Chapter Description of the truck crane, Section Functional description of the display and operating elements.

The following description applies, providing – the main hoist rope is folded on the main boom and – the auxiliary hoist rope is folded on the auxiliary single-sheave boom top.

26.01.2001

G

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

The reeving on the main boom must be the same as or larger than the reeving on the auxiliary single-sheave boom top.

If this prerequisite is disregarded the main hoist rope and the main hoist will get overloaded.

H

Setting the SLI

Cü ü

For the two-hook operation both hoists on the SLI need to be switched on.

It is recommendable to enter the reevings for both hoists right at the beginning. The values are saved and called up directly when changing over the hoists. This saves you entering the values during operation.

Proceed as follows:

• Switch off both hoists.

To do so press down the bottom part of the two rocker switches Disconnect auxiliary hoist and Disconnect main hoist.

• Switch on main hoist.

To do so press top half of rocker switch Disconnect main hoist.

On the Hoists indicator lamps lamp I for the main hoist lights up.

• On the Reeving display, enter the number of reeved ropes of the main hoist rope on the main boom.

"

Now the reeving for the main hoist is stored and you can change over to the auxiliary hoist.

Cü

• Switch off both hoists.

To do so press down the bottom part of the two rocker switches Disconnect auxiliary hoist and Disconnect main hoist.

C

• Switch on auxiliary hoist.

To do so press top half of rocker switch Disconnect auxiliary hoist.

On the Hoists indicator lamps, lamp II (auxiliary hoist) flashes.

26.01.2001

!

• On the Reeving display, enter the number of reeved ropes of the auxiliary hoist rope on the auxiliary single-sheave boom top.

Now the reeving for the auxiliary hoist is also stored and you can connect the main hoist.

H Turning the load

The SLI for two-hook operation is now set; it considers the reeving for the auxiliary hoist and the lifting capacity tables for the auxiliary single-sheave boom top.

Load measurement for two-hook operation is carried out via the pressure in the derricking cylinder of the main boom. This reduces the loads listed in the Lifting capacity table by the weight of both reeved hook blocks.

For turning the load, proceed as follows.

Keep the acceleration force as small as possible for two-hook operation.

Therefore, move load as slowly as possible!

As soon as the load is attached to two hooks, there will be slight variations in the Actual load display. These variations are on the safe side in terms of SLI, though.

As long as the load is attached to two hooks do not switch the SLI code to Operation with main boom; rather it must be set at Operation with auxiliary single-sheave boom top during the entire hoisting procedure.

26.01.2001

S H H

• Set the SLI code for operation with auxiliary single-sheave boom top valid for the truck crane’s current installation condition.

Boom extension

5.1

Components and Identification

5.1.1

Identification The boom extension consists of the 22 m (72 ft) two-stage swing-away lattice extension and two boom extension sections.

The boom extension is designed for the truck crane with which it was delivered. The parts of the boom extension belonging to the truck crane have the same serial number as the truck crane.

All components are identified by serial number.

Both parts of the boom extension are identified by a serial number.

S H

For technical reasons the truck crane may be adjusted only with one boom extension.

If you wish to use the boom extension on several GROVE truck cranes, the parts of the boom extension must be adjusted for these cranes and labelled with all of the respective serial numbers.

Have the matching of the boom extension carried out only by GROVE Customer Support at the particular location!

26.01.2001

S

Operate the truck crane only with those parts of the boom extension which have the same serial number as the crane.

The SLI is set only for this boom extension.

This means that you can prevent malfunctions and damage.

Driving with rigged crane and boom extension This section describes how you can move the truck crane with an installed counterweight and rigged boom extension.

G G 5.6.1

Risk of accidents!

It is forbidden to move the truck crane with a suspended load.

Put the load down before you move the truck crane.

Secure the hook block so that it cannot swing.

Risk of overturning!

Before a rigged crane can be driven the superstructure must be locked and the slewing gear permanent brake must be engaged.

Driving route The route must be a flat, even surface. The level adjustment system cannot compensate for uneven surfaces. If the surface pressure of the tyres exceeds the permissible load on the ground, the surface pressure must be increased using packing made of durable material (e.g. wooden planks).

26.01.2001

S

Risk of tyre damage!

Check the pressure in the tyres before the rigged truck crane is moved.

The truck crane may only be moved if the tyres have been inflated to the required air pressure; ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Part 2, Chapter Technical information, Section Technical data – Carrier – Tyres.

Do not reduce the tyre pressure!

Rigging modes and axle loads The vehicle may only be moved if certain conditions are met. The boom may have to be moved to a specified position, depending on the installed counterweight.

S 00==

Damage may occur to the axle lines!

Always move the boom to the prescribed position before you move the rigged truck crane. The permitted load on the axle lines will be exceeded if the boom is in a position which deviates from the prescribed position.

• Set the appropriate SLI code for the rigging mode on the safe load indicator. The SLI codes are found in the Lifting capacity table.

• Move the boom into the prescribed position. The prescribed boom position can be found in the following tables.

26.01.2001

G

Risk of accidents if SLI is overridden!

Always set the SLI rigging code corresponding to the current rigging mode when you derrick the main boom into the prescribed position. Do not override the SLI; the prescribed positions in the following tables all lie within the areas which are permitted according to the Lifting capacity tables.

The truck crane safe load indicator does not function when the SLI is overridden!

Risk of accidents if the chain hoist should fall off!

Always detach the chain hoist for setting working positions before operating with the heavy load lattice extension.

In this way you will avoid damaging the main boom with the chain hoist or causing injury should the hoist drop.

To raise and set down the main boom with a rigged lattice extension, the main boom must be fully retracted because the SLI then automatically switches to the rigging program.

To raise and set down, the following requirements must be met:

00==

– The current reeving of the hoist cable on the lattice extension is entered.

– Apart from the hook block there is no load on the lattice extension.

Risk of accidents if the chain hoist should fall off!

Always detach the chain hoist for setting working positions before operating with the heavy load lattice extension.

In this way you will avoid damaging the main boom with the chain hoist or causing injury should the hoist drop.

If a heavy load lattice extension is reeved during operation with the main boom, the loads given in the Lifting capacity tables decrease. The values which have to be taken off the loads are given in the Lifting capacity tables in their own table.

The hoisting, lowering, slewing, derrick and telescoping movements are done in the same way as when operating with the main boom. Telescoping, however, is cleared by the SLI only for main boom angles below 60° or 80° (for exact value see ➠ Rigging programs in the lifting capacity table).

The SLI monitors operation when working with the heavy load lattice extension.

SLI shutdown can occur with heavy load lattice extension operation for the same reasons as when operating with the main boom; ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Part 2, Chapter Crane operation, Section Operating the safe load indicator – During crane operation – SLI shutdown.

Procedure if the permissible wind speed is exceeded

Strong winds can overstrain the truck crane. It is therefore important to pay close attention to the instructions in ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions – Wind/ Influence of wind on crane work Procedure if the permissible wind speed is exceeded while carrying out crane work with the heavy load lattice extension Wind speed less than 20 m (66 ft)/s

Wind speed greater than 20 m (66 ft)/s

• Set down the load.

• Set down the load.

• Slew the superstructure so that the main boom creates as little wind resistance as possible.

• Fully retract the main boom.

Heavy load lattice extension 6.5 Operation with the heavy load lattice extension

6.5.1

Telescoping with rigged heavy load lattice extension

S

The main boom may become overloaded!

While you are telescoping the main boom with the rigged heavy load lattice extension, you may not simultaneously slew the superstructure.

This prevents the main boom being subjected to additional side forces and increased vibration and becoming overloaded.

Telescoping with a load is released by the SLI only for loads which are below the values in the rigging programs.

Telescoping with a rigged heavy load lattice extension is released by the SLI if the main boom is derricked in below 60° or 80° (➠ Rigging program in the lifting capacity table).

If the main boom angle is too small for telescoping with the rigged lattice extension angle, the SLI displays the corresponding error message.

• Set down the load.

• Derrick in the main boom by the appropriate angle according to the rigging program (➠ Rigging program in the lifting capacity table).

26.01.2001

Telescope the main boom by the required length, taking into account the hook block; lower or raise it using the hoist.

Do not actuate the slewing gear when telescoping.

6.5.2

Turning loads When turning loads it is necessary to employ a two-hook operation. Twohook operation is permitted only in conjunction with a lattice extension.

The only type of two-hook operation technically possible and protected by the SLI is described in this chapter using the turning of loads as an example.

G G H Prerequisites

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

Lifting a load with two hooks is permissible only if the following instructions and illustrations are observed!

If these instructions are not observed, accidents could occur due to individual parts of the truck crane being overloaded! The SLI then no longer provides protection.

Two-hook operation with the heavy load lattice extension is not permitted!

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

The load must always be lifted completely with the weakest part first (heavy load lattice extension).

Regarding position and function of necessary operating instruments; ➠ GMK 5200/6220 operating instructions, Part 2, Chapter Description of the truck crane, Section Functional description of the display and operating elements.

The following description requires that – the main hoist rope is reeved on the main boom and – the auxiliary hoist rope on the heavy load lattice extension is reeved.

G

For two-hook operation, both hoists must be activated on the SLI.

26.01.2001

Setting SLI

Risk of accidents due to overloading!

The reeving on the main boom must be equal to or greater than that on the heavy load lattice extension!

If this condition is not fulfilled, the main hoist rope and main hoisting gear will become overloaded.

It is advisable to enter the reevings for both hoists at the start. The values are stored and called up directly when switching hoisting gears. This eliminates the need for input later during operation. Proceed as follows:

• Switch off both hoists.

To do this, press down both rocker switches Auxiliary hoist shutdown and Main hoist shutdown.

• Switch on the main hoist.

To do this, push up the rocker switch Main hoist shutdown.

Lamp I for the main hoist lights up in the Hoists indicator lamps.

• In the display Reeving, enter the quantity of reeved rope of the main hoist rope on the main boom.

• Switch off both hoists.

To do this, press down both rocker switches Auxiliary hoist shutdown and Main hoist shutdown.

• Switch on the auxiliary hoist.

To do this, push up the rocker switch Auxiliary hoist shutdown.

Heavy load lattice extension 6.5 Operation with the heavy load lattice extension

On the display lamps Hoists, lamp II is now lit for the auxiliary hoist and lamp I is flashing for the main hoist.

11==

H Turning a load

Now the SLI is set for two-hook operation; this takes into account the reeving for the auxiliary hoist and the lifting capacity table for the heavy load lattice extension.

The load measurement is taken in two-hook operation via the pressure in the main boom’s derricking cylinder. The loads detailed in the Lifting capacity table then decrease by the weight of both reeved hook blocks.

To turn loads, proceed only in the manner described as follows.

Keep the acceleration force as low as possible during two-hook operation.

Therefore move the load at the lowest possible speed!

If the load is on two hooks, there will be slight differences in the Actual load display. However, the differences are on the safe side with regard to SLI shutdown.

As long as the load is hanging on two hooks, you may not switch the SLI code to Operation with the main boom. It must be set to Operation with the heavy load lattice extension during the entire lifting procedure.

26.01.2001

S H H

• Set the SLI code for crane operation with the heavy load lattice extension, valid for the current rigging mode of the truck crane.
