6 Driving modes
This chapter contains tables with driving modes of the GMK3060, for which the
maximum axle load is 12 t (26,500 lbs).
H
If country-specific regulations allow the truck crane to be driven with axle loads
greater than 12 t (26,500 lbs), then observe the Information on the axle loads in the
next section and the specifications in section Maximum permitted speeds with an axle
load of over 12 t (26,500 lbs);
à p. 6 - 6.

Information about
the axle loads
The GMK3060 truck crane is designed for driving with maximum axle loads of 12 t
(26,500 lbs). Die
Manitowoc Crane Group Germany GmbH notes that driving with
an axle load exceeding 12 t (26,500 lbs) can overheat the brake system and the
braking deceleration required by the EU partial type-approval cannot be ensured.
If country-specific regulations allow the truck crane to be driven with axle loads
greater that 12 t (26,500 lbs), the crane driver/operator bears the sole responsi-
bility for driving in this condition and for any subsequent damage. This also
applies to damage due to premature wear.
G
Risk of accidents from increased braking distance!
When driving with axle loads in excess of 12 t (26,500 lbs), the braking deceler-
ation required by the EU partial type-approval cannot be met. Please bear in
mind that the braking distance of the truck crane will be increased.
S
Risk of damage from premature wear!
Premature wear of parts under particular strain (brake system, steering, tyres,
wheels, suspension, drive shafts) cannot be ruled out even if the axle loads only
briefly exceed 12 t (26,500 lbs).
