TMS800E OPERATOR’S MANUALLUBRICATION

filled. Oil escaping from ve nt plug is an indication the hoist may be overfilled.

BOOM, BOOM EXTENSION, AND BOOM ACCESSORIES LUBRICATION

NOTE: To service the boom at boom lengths longer than 120 ft (to access grease fittings, grease the sections, or to change the holding valve), a minimum of 12,000 pounds of counterweight must be installed on the turntable and the outriggers must be fully extended. Boom must be positioned over the right-hand side of the machine. No rigging, no hook block, or overhaul ball may be installed on the nose of the boom.

Extend boom to desired length at a boom angle of 20 degrees. Lower boom until RCL limits the boom lower function. Override RCL per RCL Operator’s Manual and lower boom to desired angle.

Wire Rope Lubrication

Wire rope is lubricated during manufacturing so that the strands, and individual wires in strands, may move as the rope moves and bends. A wire rope cannot be lubricated sufficiently during manufacture to last its entire life. Therefore, new lubricant must be added periodically throughout the life of a rope to replace factory lubricant which is used or lost.

NOTE: Wire rope may be purchased by contacting the Manitowoc Crane Care Parts Department.

For more detailed information concerning the lubrication and inspection of wire rope, refer to WIRE ROPE in Section 1INTRODUCTION in the Service Manual.
