After a lightning strike, always have the truck crane checked by
Manitowoc Crane Care before you operate the truck crane – even if you
do not notice any impairment to its function. Electronic components
may be damaged by a lightning strike and may fail unexpectedly,
either immediately or during later operation.
Crane operation carried out in the vicinity of live overhead power lines
as well as oil, gas or other pipelines is dangerous and requires special
precautionary measures. Please observe the instructions in the section
titled
Crane operation under special operating conditions in the Safety manual
and the respective national regulations.
Testing the truck crane by lifting an excessively heavy load (overload test-
ing) is prohibited. This presents the danger of hidden damage that can lead
to severe accidents during subsequent crane operation. If locally applicable
national regulations require the truck crane to be tested by lifting an exces-
sively heavy load (overload test), always first consult
Manitowoc Crane Care.
