13.3.1 Checking tyre pressure and wind speed
• Ensure that all the tyres are at the prescribed pressure levels;
à Tyres, p. 1 - 14.
The wind speeds stated in Lifting capacity table for the entered rigging mode apply
for driving the truck crane.
• Check the wind speed; à p. 11 - 78.
13.3.2 Secure the superstructure against slewing
•
Lock the turntable – the symbols (1) and (2) must be green.
• Switch off the slewing gear; à p. 11 - 126.

S
Risk of damage to the tyres!
Only drive the rigged truck crane if the tyres are at the prescribed pressure level.
Never reduce the tyre pressure in order to increase the bearing surface of the
tyres!
G
Risk of accidents at excessively high wind speeds!
You may not drive the rigged truck crane if the wind speed exceeds the
maximum permissible values specified in Lifting capacity table. In this case,
you must bring the truck crane into a secure state.
G
Danger of overturning by the superstructure slewing while driving the
truck crane!
Always secure the superstructure before driving the rigged truck crane to prevent
it slewing. Slewing the superstructure while driving the truck crane increases the
risk of overturning.!
