Engage the PTO
1. Activate the parking brake and place chocks under the wheels to prevent vehicle movement.
2. Engage the PTO (Power Take Off) and bring the vehicle engine to the correct rpm.
NOTE
• Rpm too high: the oil in the hydraulic system might overheat.
• Rpm too low: during crane operation, the vehicle engine could stall.
• The maximum rpm may depend upon a governor on your PTO combination.
CAUTION
Close the driver’s cab to prevent access to unauthorised persons.
Start the control system
The operating levers must be in neutral position before you start.
The control system starts automatically when the PTO is engaged. If this feature is not activated,
push the ON/OFF button on the User Interface (A) and activate the control system.
• The light on the reset LED (C) will flash while the system is checking itself and stop flashing
when the system is ready to start the operation.
• The green and yellow lights will blink on the display panel.
• The green light will blink on the column lamp.
• If the system is equipped with the stabiliser LED lights,
these will also come on.
