• Slowly lower the main boom into a horizon-
tal position.
In doing so, the head of the swing-away lat-
tice is pushed along the ground.
The swing-away lattice is now in the correct
position for the attachment of the hoist rope.
Setting an angle of
inclination of 0°
The section is based on the assumption that no load is raised and the hook
block is unreeved.
• Set the head of the swing-away lattice down
onto the ground.

During the following steps, the swing-away lattice head is pulled or pushed
over the ground. Lay boards, for example, under the skids so that the head
is not pushed into the ground or damaged.
• Slowly lower the main boom into a horizon-
tal position.
In doing so, the head of the lattice extension
is pushed across the ground.
• Remove the hoist rope (1) and set it down
next to the swing-away lattice.

Risk of overturning due to the truck crane standing at an angle
After setting the angle of inclination, always check whether the truck crane
is level.
This will prevent the actual working range from deviating from the permis-
sible working range, and the truck crane overturning.
