• The warnings, cautions, and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions or situations that could occur. Exercise common sense and caution when using this crane. Always be aware of the environment and ensure that the tool is used in a safe and responsible manner.
• Do not allow persons to operate or assemble the crane until they have read this manual and have developed a thorough understanding of how it works.
• Do not modify this crane in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function and/or safety and could affect the life of the crane. There are specific applications for which the crane was designed.
• Use the right tool for the job. DO NOT attempt to force small equipment to do the work of larger industrial equipment. There are certain applications for which this equipment was designed. It will be safer and do a better job at the capacity for which it was intended. DO NOT use this crane for a purpose for which it was not intended.
• Industrial or commercial applications must follow OSHA requirements.

WARNING

WORK AREA SAFETY

• Inspect the work area before each use. Keep work area clean, dry, free of clutter, and well-lit. Cluttered, wet, or dark work areas can result in injury. Using the crane in confined work areas may put you dangerously close to other cutting tools and rotating parts.
• Keep children and bystanders away from the work area while operating the crane. Do not allow children to handle the crane.

WARNING

PERSONAL SAFETY

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common sense when operating the crane. Do not use the crane while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating the tool may result in serious personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Air vents on the tool often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
• Wear the proper personal protective equipment when necessary. Use ANSIZ87.1 compliant safety goggles (not safety glasses) with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use a dust mask in dusty work conditions. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate. This applies to all persons in the work area.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• Secure the work with clamps or a vise instead of your hand when practical. This safety precaution allows for proper tool operation using both hands.

CRANE USE AND CARE

• Do not force the crane. Products do a better job and are safer when used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct product for the job.
• Check for damaged parts before each use. Carefully check that the crane will operate properly and perform its intended function. Replace damaged or worn parts immediately. Never operate the crane with a damaged part.
• Store the crane when it is not in use. Store it in a dry, secure place out of the reach of children. Inspect the tool for good working condition prior to storage and before re-use.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for use with your crane. Accessories that may be suitable for one product may create a risk of injury when used with another tool. Never use an accessory that has a lower operating speed or operating pressure than the tool itself.

Maintenance

• It is recommended that the general condition of any tool be examined before it is used. Keep your crane in good repair by adopting a program of conscientious repair and maintenance in accordance with the recommended procedures found in this manual. If any abnormal vibrations or noise occurs, stop using the crane immediately and have the problem corrected before further use. Have necessary repairs made by qualified service personnel.
• Use only soap and a damp cloth to clean your tools. Many household cleaners are harmful to plastics and other insulation. Never allow liquid to get inside of a tool.
• When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use accessories intended for use with this crane.
• To add oil, fully collapse the jack and add oil to move the oil level to the oil plug. Use only hydraulic jack oil.
• Lubricate the grease fitting with a grease gun once a month, or when the boom becomes difficult to switch on the post.
• If the crane will be exposed to wet conditions, more frequent lubrication may be necessary to prevent build-up of rust.
