(!) ATTENTION (!)
Carefully inspect the load rigging.
Hook up the load, checking that it does not exceed the capacity indicated on the
lifting diagram specific to each load configuration.
Make sure that the lifted load is balanced.
Avoid swinging the load above the control station; in
cases where the load is too close, the crane must be
operated from the opposite side.
When operating through a winch, lift the load vertically
using the cable and not the booms in order to avoid
swinging the load.
