80W-90 above: -10 to 100°F (-23 to 38°C)
85W-140 above: 100°F (38°C)
Hydraulic Oil
General
Optional thermostatically controlled heaters (120 or 240 volt)
can be installed in the hydraulic tank to aid in cold-weather
startup.
The heaters are designed to keep the oil temperature 30°F
(17°C) warmer than ambient air temperature. Each heater
has an extension cord for connecting to an owner furnished
electric power supply.
Hydraulic tank heaters must be unplugged when engine
is running to prevent hydraulic system from
overheating.
Change the oil in the hydraulic system to ISO Grade 15 when
the expected ambient temperature will remain at 32°F (0°C)
or below.
Change the oil in the hydraulic system to ISO Grade 46 when
the expected ambient temperature will remain above 32°F
(0°C).
COLD WEATHER HEATER PACKAGE
General
The optional cold weather heater package is a 240 volt AC
single phase power supply. The heaters preheat critical
machinery and lubricant sumps during cold weather
shutdown.
The 240 volt receptacle and circuit breaker panel is mounted
on the rear of operator’s cab (see Figure 3-66
).
When operated in an arctic climate — outside temperature
continuously below 0°F (-18°C) and -30°F (-34°C) — the
crane should be equipped with the heaters identified in this
section and lubricated with the lubricants listed in Section 5.
Heaters
The heaters operate on 240 volt AC single phase electrical
power supplied by a external power supply.

CAUTION
Machinery Damage!
Operating in an arctic climate without heaters can damage
machinery during cold weather startup due to lack of
lubrication.
Heater package described in this section may not provide
adequate protection when operating below -30°F (-34°C).
Contact Manitowoc dealer for recommendations.
Hydraulic Pump Damage!
To prevent damage to pumps, warm hydraulic oil to 60°F
(16°C) minimum before operating the crane in an arctic
climate.
WARNING

Severe electric shock can cause death or serious injury.
Crane owner/user shall make provisions for turning off
electrical power supply before connecting power supply
cord to crane.
