4.5 REMOVAL OF FLY-JIB
This section explains a method of removing the whole Fly-jib from the main body of the machine.
Fully retract the main boom and set it to horizontal before using the crane to remove the Fly-jib.
• Always stop the engine during work. If work is performed with the engine running, the
machine can start moving unexpectedly, causing a serious accident.
• Only use a sling (e.g. wire rope and shackles) which has sufficient strength when lifting the
Fly-jib.
• Never perform work while stepping on the crawler. You may miss your footing and fall down,
causing serious physical injury. Be sure to set a stable workbench when working above
ground level.
• When work is performed on the main boom with the Fly-jib removed
setting change of the moment limiter is required. Be sure to contact our sales service agency.
If the machine is used without changing the setting of the moment limiter, a serious accident,
such as damage or overturning of the machine, can be caused.
A person who performs lifting operation of the Fly-
jib using a crane must obtain the
qualification if there are local laws or regulations. If there are no such laws or regulations, the
person must be well trained and experienced.
