Installation
1. Position the crane so the swingaway lies in front of the
crane with the swingaway base facing the crane. Fully
extend and set the outriggers.
2. Extend and lower the boom to engage the boom anchor
lugs (11) and the extension anchor fittings (10).
3. Install the attach pins and retainer clips to secure the 11
m (36 ft) extension section to the boom nose. Attach a
length of rope to the extension tip. Raise the boom,
lifting the extension from the cribbing on which it was
resting. Retract the boom.
4. Remove the retainer clips from the attach pins on the left
side of the boom at the anchor fittings for the jib.
Remove the pins out of the lower and upper anchor lugs
and anchor fittings. Install both attach pins into holders
on the base of the jib and secure with retainer clips.
5. Raise and/or lower the boom to help control the 11 m (36
ft) extension, and using the rope attached to the tip of the
extension, swing the extension to the side of the boom.
6. Swing the 11 m (36 ft) extension until it contacts the front
stowage bracket. Lift up on the lever (15) and push the
jib until its mounting holes align with the extension
hanger pivot mounting holes on the main boom (Detail
A) (Figure 4-15). Pull downward on the lever to insert the
spring pin (16) into its mounting holes. Make sure the
spring pin is secure and engaged properly between the
jib and main boom. Secure the connection with retaining
pin (18) and clip pin (19).
7. Remove the retaining clips from the attaching pins at the
boom anchor lugs and extension anchor fittings on the
right side of the boom nose. Remove the two attach pins
out of the attaching points and insert them into the
holders on the base of the jib, securing them with
retaining clips.
8. With the guide rail in the out position, push the 11 m (36
ft) extension onto the guide rail until it comes into contact
with all of the connections on the main boom.
NOTE: If the 7 m (23 ft) section (fly) remained on the boom
stowage brackets, perform steps 9 and 10, if not
skip to step 11.
WARNING
Crushing Hazard!
When erecting the swingaway, ensure that all personnel
and equipment are kept clear of the swing path.
WARNING
Do not modify the attach points to permit the installation of
the attach pins.
DANGER
Crushing Hazard!
Make sure the connection between the 11 m (36 ft) jib and
the main jib stowage bracket is engaged and secure
before removing the attach pins on the right hand side
boom nose. This will prevent the jib from falling.
When stowing the swingaway, ensure that all personnel
and equipment are kept clear of the swing path.
Failure to comply with these warnings may cause death or
serious injury.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage Hazard!
Do not allow the swingaway to slam into the stowage
brackets when swinging into the stowed position.
