If you have inclined the truck crane with the outriggers, level it now so that
the swing-away lattice sections can be folded more easily.
Inclining the
truck crane
In order to set the angle of the swing-away lattice, you must set it down on
the ground by extending and lowering the main boom.
Depending on the available space, the condition of the terrain or limitation
of telescoping due to the current rigging mode, it may be the case that the
swing-away lattice cannot be set down on the ground by telescoping and
lowering the main boom.
In this case, you can additionally incline the truck crane with the outriggers.
• Extend the supporting cylinders on the counterweight side.
• Retract the supporting cylinders on the main boom side if necessary.
Make sure the wheels do not touch the ground in the process.
G
Risk of accidents if the wheels touch the ground
Make sure the wheels do not touch the ground after inclining the truck
crane. This will prevent a reduction in the stability of the truck crane and the
truck crane from overturning when setting the angle.
