WARNING
Falling Load Hazard!
Avoid death or serious injury. Do not attempt to lift the
lower tray at the lifting lugs when the center box or side
boxes are installed. Lifting lugs may break, allowing the
counterweight to fall.
WARNING
Falling Load Hazard!
Avoid death or serious injury. Cracks that develop on the
counterweight support lugs, could lead to unexpected
structural failure of the center box, allowing the
counterweights to fall from the crane. When installing and
removing the upper counterweight, inspect the
counterweight support lugs on the center box for cracks or
other damage (Figure 4-32
, View A). The lugs are
important structural components that hold the
counterweight on the upperworks.
