WARNING AND
INSTRUCTIONS
GRU FASSI
- If you are in the truck cabin, stay inside without touching the vehicle body because it's
extremely hazardous to go out before the line is de-energised.
- Help the electricuted person if you know the first-aid procedures, otherwise wait for the
paramedics to arrive.
(!) ATTENTION (!)
A wind gust can cause the swinging of an electric line.
Do not utilize the crane during thunderstorms and when wind speed excee-
ding 13,8 m\s (50 km/h), maximum value of the Beaufort scale degree 6.
Force of the wind Wind speed Classification Characteristics
Beaufort scale m/s
0 0,0 - 0,2 Calm Calm wind, smoke goes up quite
vertically
1 0,3 - 1,5 Light breeze Smoke reveals the direction of the
2 1,6 - 3,3 wind, one can feel the wind blowing,
leaves start fluttering.
3 3,4 - 5,4 Moderate breeze Leaves and branches are in constant
4 5,5 - 7,9 motion, small branches start fluttering.
Dust and papers dance on the ground.
5 8,0 - 10,7 Fresh breeze Small green branches bend, the surface
of waterways and lakes are wavy.
6 10,8 - 13,8 Near gale Big branches bend, wind whistles
through high-tension cables, it's
difficult to walk keeping the
umbrella open.
7 13,9 - 17,1 Moderate gale Trees sway, it's hard to walk
8 17,2 - 20,7 Storm wind Branches get broken, it's hard to walk.
9 20,8 - 24,4 Storm It damages houses (antennas and roof
tiles fall down)
- BURN DANGER
During the oil flow in the hydraulic circuit, the oil and all the components of the circuit
reach high temperatures.
It's necessary to verify the temperature of every hydraulic component before to touch it,
for to avoid burns.
- USE TEMPERATURE AND CRANE STORING
The crane is designed for the utilization at ambient temperature included in the below
table. If the ambient temperature of utilization is not included in the indicated limits, the
crane functionality can be compromised.
Temperatures too high or too low can damage the components of the oleody-
namic and electric circuit, and compromise the crane functioning.
If the crane is used in the presence of ice or snow, it's necessary to start the hydraulic
system at the minimum speed of the motor. It's necessary to do circulate the oil for some
minutes, until to its heating.
(!) ATTENTION (!)
It's obligatory to clean the load from the ice or the snow before lifting.
(!) ATTENTION (!)
If you work at ambient temperature different from that prescribed
in the table,
it's obligatory to request the specific authorization to the FASSI GRU.
Temperature of the working ambient of the crane
Temperature of the storage ambient of the crane
-30°C to +50°C
