GROVE 6-17
TMS9000-2 OPERATOR MANUAL SET-UP AND INSTALLATION
Published 02-21-2019, Control # 611-05
three counterweight plates can be lifted onto the carrier
platform together. Be sure to install the locking pins into the
plates before lifting these plates together.
Lift the 10,000 lb counterweight sections using the four
casted sling points (2, Figure 6-20).
The 3000 lb tray section has two lifting lugs (3, Figure 6-20)
welded to the counterweight post for lifting.
Each of the 2250 lb and 4000 lb left and right hand wing
counterweight sections have two lifting points (4,
Figure 6-20).
Lifting stacked counterweight sections
Each counterweight plate can be lifted individually onto the
crane platform using the lifting points shown in Figure 6-20.
The only combination of counterweight plates that can be
lifted together are the 3,000 lb (2, Figure 6-19) and the two
5,000 lb sections (2, Figure 6-19). All other sections must be
lifted individually.
The 3,000 lb and two 5,000 lb counterweights can be
combined and lifted as shown in Figure 6-21. Ensure all
locking pins are in the locked position as shown
inFigure 6-25. Place the sling straps on the top
counterweight.
WARNING
Tip-over Hazard!
With a free on wheels truck crane, the superstructure may
not be turned. With an outrigger spread of 7.6 ft, the
superstructure may only be turned when a maximum of
6000 lbs counterweight is rigged. This prevents the truck
crane from overturning when turning.
CAUTION
Locking Pin Damage!
When lifting the 3000 lb and 5000 lb counterweights,
ensure ALL locking pins are completely installed in the
lock position (Figure 6-25) before lifting the counterweight
sections on and off of the crane. DO NOT leave the
locking pins in the unlocked position while lifting the
counterweight sections on and off of the crane. This
ensures the counterweight sections are properly locked
together when lifting the 3000 lb and 5000 lb sections at
the same time. This also ensures that the locking pins do
not contact the boom rest or other objects in the work area
and become entangled.
