3.4.2 Checking the transport condition
Certain connections must be established between the sections of the swing-
away lattice for transport, depending on whether the swing-away lattice is:
– Folded on the main boom for transport or
– Removed for transport
Check the transport condition:
– After unrigging the swing-away lattice, before you drive the truck crane or
work with the main boom.
– After unrigging the swing-away lattice, regardless of whether you drive
the truck crane, work with the main boom or whether the swing-away lat-
tice has been removed.
– Before installation and before rigging the swing-away lattice.
The corresponding checklists require that the swing-away lattice is in
transport condition.
S
Risk of damage to the lattice extension and the main boom
Always put the swing-away lattice into transport condition before driving
the truck crane with folded swing-away lattice or working with the main
boom.
Only then is the swing-away lattice secured against slipping.
This will prevent the incompletely fastened swing-away lattice from hitting
the main boom or components of the swing-away lattice from hitting each
other and becoming damaged.
