Operating Instructions
Do Not Operate Unless:
You learn and practice the principles of safe machine operation contained in this operator’s manual.
- Avoid hazardous situations.
- Always perform a pre-operation inspection.
- Always perform function tests prior to use.
- Inspect the workplace.
- Only use the machine as it was intended.
Fundamentals
The Operating Instructions section provides instructions for each aspect of
machine operation. It is the operator’s responsibility to follow all the
safety rules and instructions in the operator’s manual.
Using the machine for anything other than lifting material is unsafe.
If more than one operator is expected to use a machine at different times in
the same work shift, each operator is expected to follow all safety rules and
instructions in the operator’s manual. That means every new operator should
perform a pre-operation inspection, function tests and a workplace inspection
before using the machine.
Setup
Select an area that is firm, level and free of obstructions.
Follow the Setup procedures in the Function Tests section.
Raising and Lowering Load
-
Center the load on the load handling attachment.
See Load Capacity Charts section. -
Make sure the load is properly secured to the load handling attachment.
-
Raise the load by firmly grasping the winch handles and rotating them toward the mast. Do not allow the cable to wind unevenly onto the drum.
-
Lower the load by firmly grasping the winch handles and rotating them away from the mast. After lowering to the desired position, turn the winch handles toward the mast (raise the load) 1/4 turn to set the brake.
Moving Machine with a Load
It is best to move the machine on the worksite with no load. Moving a raised load should be restricted to positioning for loading and unloading. If it is necessary to move the machine with a raised load, understand and obey the following safety rules:
- Make sure the area is level and clear of obstructions.
- Make sure the load is centered on the load handling attachment.
- Make sure the load is secured to the load handling attachment.
- Avoid sudden starts and stops.
- Travel with the load in the lowest possible position.
- Keep personnel away from the machine and load.
After Each Use
To prepare the machine for storage, follow the Setup procedure in reverse
order.
Select a safe storage location – firm level surface, weather protected, clear
of obstruction and traffic.
