BREAKING-IN A NEW CARRIER
Your new Grove carrier has been thoroughly tested,
adjusted, lubricated, and inspected prior to delivery. For
detailed engine conditioning, refer to the applicable engine
manual.
Some important rules to follow to establish conditions for
long service life are listed below.
• Operate as much as possible in half to three-quarters
throttle or load range.
• Avoid long periods of operation at engine idle speeds or
at continuous maximum horsepower levels.
• Observe instruments often and shut down at the first
indication of an abnormal reading.
• Operate to a power requirement that allows acceleration
to governed speed when conditions require more power.
• Check all components frequently for proper operation,
unusual noises, or excessive heating.
• Check the engine oil and the coolant levels frequently.
These rules should not be considered as limitations in
putting your equipment to work at maximum capacity, but
rather to serve as a guide to familiarization and development
of good operating habits.
PRE-STARTING CHECKS
A complete walk-around visual inspection of the crane
should always be made with special attention to structural
damage, loose equipment, leaks, or other conditions that
would require immediate correction for safety of operation.
The following items are suggested specifically for the
operator’s benefit to ensure the crane is prepared for starting
the day’s work.
Fuel Supply
Ensure the fuel tank is full and the cap is on tight.
Use only approved fuels. The ISX engine requires the use of
Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel.
Engine Oil
Check the oil level in the crankcase; fill to the FULL mark on
the dipstick. Do not overfill.
DEF Fluid Level
Check the DEF fluid level in the DEF tank; fill to the proper
level. An engine derate will occur when the fluid level is low.
WARNING
Never mix gasoline, alcohol, or gasohol with diesel fuel.
This mixture can cause an explosion.
CAUTION
In ISX engines, use only ultra low sulfur diesel fuel,
Failure to do so may cause damage to the exhaust
catalyst.
CAUTION
DO NOT OVERFILL the engine crankcase. Damage to
engine components will result.
