16 • Section 3 — Safety
— Winch line rated working load multiplied by the
number of parts of winch line.
— Rated capacity shown in rated capacity chart for
material handling jib (if jib is in use).
• If the actual load radius is not shown in the chart, use
the load capacity at the next longer radius shown.
• When lifting with the jib, use loaded boom angle to
determine jib capacity regardless of boom length.
• When jib is erected boom must be fully retracted
before lowering below minimum boom with jib angles.
Retracted boom with jib has no lifting capacity below
a 50 degree angle with full span outriggers and be-
low a 65 degree angle with mid span outriggers. Jib
operation is not allowed with short span outriggers.
• If a boom is extended to a length not shown in the
chart, use the load capacity at the next longer length
of extension shown for that boom.
• The multiple part winch line must be used when the
load being lifted exceeds the winch line rated working
load. Line pull (obtained by dividing load weight by
number of parts of line) must not exceed winch line
rated working load.
• Load capacities in the chart do not exceed 85 percent
of actual tipping loads on a level surface, based on
the unloaded vehicle weight. If the unit is remounted
or if the vehicle is modied in any way affecting stabil-
ity, contact Altec to determine if a new load capacity
chart is required.
Considerations when using the platform. All personnel
platform use must be in compliance with the requirements
of OSHA 1926.1431 (g) and either ASME B30.23 or ANSI
A92.2 compliant units plus the following.
• The rated capacity chart for occupied personnel
platform is in use by selecting platform mode on the
LMAP display.
• The unit is properly set on outriggers.
• Platform controls have been tested for proper opera-
tion.
• The lift has been preplanned including identifying
hazards such as power lines and other obstructions.
• A platform should not be attached at any time mate-
rial handling is being done.
• Platforms may be attached to the personnel jib.
• The load in platform must not exceed either of the
following values.
— The rated platform capacity.
— The rated capacity shown in the rated capacity
chart for personnel jib (if jib is in use).
• If the actual boom angle is not shown in the chart, use
the load capacity at the next lower boom angle.
• When between listed boom lengths or radii, always
use the smallest of the values shown.
Cold Weather Capacity
Operation of this unit in subzero temperatures will affect
the operating functions and structural capacities.
WARNING
Death or serious injury can result from overloading
the unit in subzero temperatures.
Do not operate this unit when the temperature is less than
-40 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 degrees Celsius).
When operating in subzero temperatures above -40
degrees Fahrenheit (-4 degrees Celsius), reduce the
capacity values by the following percentages.
• Reduce the capacity value by 15 percent if the tem-
perature is -10 to -20 degrees Fahrenheit (-23 to -29
degrees Celsius).
• Reduce the capacity value by 40 percent if the tem-
perature is -20 to -40 degrees Fahrenheit (-29 to -40
degrees Celsius).
Accident Prevention Signs
This unit was equipped with accident prevention signs
at the time of manufacture. If any of these are lost or
become illegible, obtain replacements from your Altec
representative.
The location, part numbers, and descriptions of all plac-
ards are listed in the Parts Manual. Refer to the Accident
Prevention Signs Diagram for examples of the placards
and their locations.
