GENERAL
NOTE: Throughout this handbook, reference is made to
left, right, front, and rear when describing locations.
These reference locations are to be considered as
those viewed from the operator’s seat with the
superstructure facing forward over the front of the
carrier frame.
This Handbook provides important information for the
operator of the Model RT530E-2 Series Grove Crane.
The rough terrain crane incorporates an all welded steel
frame, using planetary drive axles to provide four-wheel
drive. Axle steering is accomplished utilizing hydraulic steer
cylinders. The engine is mounted at the rear of the crane and
provides motive power through a six speed forward and
reverse transmission. Hydraulic, double box, sliding beam
outriggers are integral with the frame.
The carrier frame incorporates an integral fifth wheel, to
which the rear axle is mounted, to provide axle oscillation.
Axle oscillation lockout is automatic when the superstructure
rotates from the travel position.
The superstructure is capable of 360° rotation in either
direction. All crane functions are controlled from the fully-
enclosed cab mounted on the superstructure. The crane is
equipped with a four-section cable synchronized full power
boom. Additional reach is obtained by utilizing a swingaway
boom extension. Lifting is provided by a main hoist and an
optional auxiliary hoist.
NOISE/VIBRATION TEST RESULTS
Noise Level Test Results
• When equipped with the CE certification package, the
guaranteed sound power level at the operator’s station
with closed cab operation is L
WA
is 105 dB(A) as
measured by Directive 2000/14/EC and 80 db(A) at the
crane operator position as measured by Annex G.1 of
EN 13000:2010+A1:2014.
Vibration Level Test Results
• At the operator’s station with closed cab operation,
vibration levels are less than 0.5 m/s/s for Whole Body
Vibration exposure and are less than 2.5 m/s/s for Hand
Arm Vibration exposure when measured according to
89/392/EEC Community Legislation on Machinery per
standard ISO 2631/1 - Evaluation of Human Exposure to
Work Body Vibration, ISO 5349 - Guidelines for the
Measurement and Assessment of Human Exposure to
Hand Transmitted Vibrations, and ISO/DIS 8041 -
Human Response Vibration Measuring Instrumentation.
