Unrigging the counterweight
Check whether the truck crane is supported with the required
outrigger span as specified in the Lifting capacity table.
1. Enter the current rigging mode on the RCL.
2. Open the Counterweight submenu.
- Swing the superstructure into the rigging range and
set down the counterweight onto the counterweight
platform (automatic).
3. Enter the current rigging mode with the presently rigged
counterweight version on the RCL.
4. Lift the counterweight parts off the counterweight
platform, as required by the respective driving mode.
Lower 3,000 lb tray plate on the
counterweight platform
The 3,000 lb tray plate must be placed on the counterweight
platform for on-road driving, depending on driving mode.
Further counterweight sections can be lowered on the 3,000
lb tray plate. Consult all over the road driving regulations
before driving on the highway with counterweights on the
crane platform.
Select the current rigging mode on RCL with the current
rigged counterweight on the turntable or enter the
corresponding RCL code.
WARNING
The 3000 lb counterweight tray plate must be lowered
onto the counterweight platform for counterweight rigging
work.
Ensure that the lifting lugs on the 3000 lb counterweight
tray are folded in the horizontal position after rigging is
complete. This ensures that the lift lugs do not come into
contact with the counterweight hoisting unit.
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.
WARNING
Tip-over Hazard!
Always check before swinging whether swinging is
permitted in the truck crane's current rigging mode
(counterweight, outrigger span, working radius).
Correct the rigging mode if necessary.
DANGER
Before unrigging the wing counterweights, ensure that the
two bolt pins (Figure 6-19) are removed from the turntable
and stowed in a location away from the superstructure.
NEVER unrig the wing counterweights (5,6,7,8
Figure 6-19) with the bolt pins installed.
WARNING
Tip-over Hazard!
Before swinging with the rigged counterweight, check
whether swinging is permissible with the rigged outrigger
span or with the truck free on wheels.
