swing-away lattice
The anemometer of the main boom is used on the lattice extension.
Installing the anemometer
• Put the rod (1) in the holder (3) and secure it
with the retaining pins.
• Remove the anemometer cable from the
holders (2) and connect it to the socket (4).
• Lay the cable in such a way that it will not be
damaged during crane operation.
• Check whether the anemometer is able to
swing so that is hangs vertically even when
the main boom is raised.
You must remove the anemometer before
driving on the road.
Removing the anemometer
• Remove the plug from the socket (4) and
close the socket with the protective cap.
• Wind the cable onto the holders (2).
• Take the rod (1) out of the holder (3).
• Fasten the retaining pins to the rod (1) for
transport.

Risk of damage to the anemometer
Remove the anemometer for on-road driving.
This will prevent the anemometer from being damaged by wind (e.g. by
suction currents caused by oncoming traffic in tunnels).
