NOTICE
The serial number of the crane and applicable attachments (for example, a luffing jib) is the only method
a Manitowoc dealer or the Manitowoc Crane Care Lattice Team has of providing the correct parts and
service information.
The serial number is located on a crane identification plate attached to the operator cab and each
attachment. Refer to the Nameplate and Decal Assembly drawing in Section 2 of this manual for the
exact location of the crane identification plate.
Always furnish serial number of crane and its attachments when ordering parts or discussing
service problems with a Manitowoc dealer or the Manitowoc Crane Care Lattice Team.
To prevent death or serious injury:
• Avoid unsafe operation and maintenance.
Crane and attachments shall be operated and maintained by trained and
experienced personnel. Manitowoc is not responsible for qualifying these
personnel.
• Do not operate or work on crane or attachments without first reading and
understanding instructions contained in the manuals supplied with crane
and applicable attachments.
• Store crane manuals in the operator cab.
If crane manuals are missing from the cab, contact a Manitowoc dealer for
new ones.
