RT765E-2 OPERATOR MANUAL OPERATING CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
5. Continue to retract the jack cylinders until they are fully
retracted.
6. Depress the desired Extension rocker switch on the
Outrigger Selector panel and hold the outrigger
Extension/Retraction rocker switch to RETRACT. The
appropriate outrigger beam should begin to retract.
NOTE: More than one outrigger may be retracted at one
time.
7. After all outriggers have been fully retracted, stow the
outrigger floats.
Stowing the Mid-Extend Lock Pin
1. Retract the outrigger extension/retraction cylinder.
NOTE: If the lock pin is wedged in the hole in the outrigger
beam, it may be necessary to jog the outrigger
extension/retraction switch slightly while pulling
upward on the pin.
2. Lift the lock pin and turn it 90° to its stowed position.
Swinging the Boom
NOTE: Automatic rear axle oscillation lockout will activate
when the boom swings right or left of the crane
centerline.
To swing the boom, the SWING control lever is pushed
forward, away from the operator, to swing CLOCKWISE, or
pulled back, toward the operator, to swing
COUNTERCLOCKWISE. Always operate the control lever
with a slow, even pressure. Use the swing brake foot pedal to
stop rotation, then position the swing brake switch to ON to
prevent further rotation.
Elevating the Boom
To elevate the boom, pull the BOOM (lift) control lever back,
toward the operator, and hold until the boom reaches the
desired elevation level.
Lowering the Boom
To lower the boom, push the Boom Control Lever forward,
away from the operator, and hold until the boom is lowered to
the desired position.
Extending the Boom
DANGER
Crushing Hazard!
Death or serious injury could result from being crushed by
moving machinery. Before activating swing, sound the
horn and verify that all personnel are clear of rotating and
moving parts.
Keep the area beneath the boom clear of all obstructions
and personnel when lowering the boom.
The operator must select the proper load chart and RCL
program for the outrigger position selected.
CAUTION
Machine Damage!
Never push or pull the swing control lever through neutral
to the opposite direction to stop swing motion. Use the
swing brake foot pedal to stop swing rotation.
DANGER
Crushing Hazard!
Keep the area above and below the boom clear of all
obstructions and personnel when elevating the boom.
DANGER
Crushing and/or Tipping Hazard!
Keep the area beneath the boom clear of all obstructions
and personnel when lowering the boom.
Long cantilever booms can create a tipping condition,
even when unloaded and in an extended, lowered
position.
CAUTION
Machine Damage!
When lowering the boom, simultaneously let out the hoist
cable to prevent two-blocking the boom nose and hook
block.
The closer the load is carried to the boom nose, the more
important it becomes to simultaneously let out the hoist
cable as the boom is lowered.
DANGER
Crushing Hazard!
Check the load chart for the maximum load at a given
radius, boom angle, and length before extending the
boom with a load.
