8.3.3 HOOK RAISING AND LOWERING
• In the event of “Over-hoist alarming” or “Automatic cut out” during the hook raising operation,
immediately suspend winding. Otherwise, it may cause a damege to the Crane, or the
wire-rope is broken which result dropping of the hook or laod; a serious accident may happen.
• Continuing the hook lowering in the condition that the load already reached the ground, the
random wind of the wire-rope will happen. This may damege the wire rope or shorten its life
badly. Further, there is some risk that the wire-rope may bite itself which prevents any more
winching. During the hook lowering, always take good care not to cause such random wind.
• The hook is raised or lowered by the boom telescoping or derricking, as well.
The same attention must be paid as the hook raising and lowering by the winch operation.
