M A E D A Crawler Crane 5.4 CRANE OPERATION
5/2020 CC1908S-1 5-35
SLEWING OPERATION
WARNING
• The rear end of the machine protrudes
beyond the crawler width. Check for safety
in the vicinity visually and using the multi-
assist view before slewing.
• Check for safety around the machine and
sound the horn before slewing.
• Perform the slewing operation as slowly as
possible. Be sure to start smoothly, slew at
low speed, and stop gently. Especially avoid
sudden lever operations when a load is
hoisted, which may cause the load to sway
and cause the machine to lose balance,
damaging the crane or tip the machine.
• Pulling a load laterally, drawing it in, or
standing it upright by slewing is prohibited.
Be sure to use hook hoisting to lift loads.
Operate the left-hand control lever (1) as follows:
• Left slewing: Push the lever outside (left
side).
• Neutral: Release your hand from the
lever.
The lever returns to the neutral
position and the slewing stops.
• Right slewing: Pull the lever inside (right
side).
Adjust the crane slewing speed by varying
the stroke of the left-hand control lever (1)
and the depression of the accelerator pedal
(2).
There is a horn switch at the centre of the
knob on the right-hand control lever (3). Use
the switch to signal when slewing.
IMPORTANT
The rated total load is the same in all
directions regardless of the slewing stop
position.
