SET-UP 1300A OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Outrigger Monitoring System (OMS) (Optional—
Standard in North America)
The Outrigger Monitoring System (OMS) aids the operator in
programming the Load Moment Indicator (LMI) by indicating
the position of each outrigger beam. The OMS uses four
sensors, one per outrigger beam, to indicate when an
outrigger beam is positioned to one of three pre-defined
locations, including fully retracted, mid-extend, and fully
extended.
Set up of the outriggers is the same for cranes equipped with
OMS; See “Setting the Outriggers” on page 1.
On cranes with OMS the symbols for the outriggers will
display on the LMI screen, refer to Figure 4-2. The
outriggers’ configuration are indicated only, the operator
must program the positions of the outriggers into the LMI.
JIB SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Only use the model 1300A jib on the 1300A boom. Do
not try to use another model’s jib. Other model jibs can
be overloaded and collapse on the 1300A boom.
2. The anti-two-block switch weight and cord must be
attached to the jib when deployed.
3. Do not lift load with the boom tip when the jib is pinned
on the boom tip.
4. Operate with jib by radius when main boom is fully
extended. If necessary, increase boom angle to maintain
loaded radius.
When radius is between points listed on capacity chart,
the load shown at the next longer radius shall be used.
5. Operate with jib by boom angle when main boom is not
fully extended. Do not exceed rated jib capacities at any
reduced boom lengths.
When angle is between points listed on capacity chart,
the load shown at next lower boom angle shall be used.
6. Ensure jib is stowed correctly (Figure 4-3):
a. Removal of swing around pins, C1, without proper
installation of stow pin A and jib swing pin B, may
allow jib to fall off.
b. Extending boom with jib stowed and failure to
remove swing pins, C1, will damage unit upon
extension.
7. Only swing jib into working or stowed position when
boom is horizontal, stow pin A and jib swing pin B, are
removed and swing pins, C1, are in place. Jib could
swing uncontrollably if boom is not horizontal.
8. Crane shall be fully set up according to proper set-up
procedures outlined previously when stowing or
unstowing jib.
9. Operate boom and turn functions very slowly and
carefully when using jib since jibs can increase boom
length by 50%.
10. Area where jib swings around must be clear of
obstructions and power lines when stowing and
unstowing jib.
11. Use safety glasses when pounding pins with hammer.
12. Do not extend/retract boom unless boom is horizontal
when stow pin A and jib swing pin B are removed during
stowing or unstowing procedures.
13. Always put spring clips in pins to ensure that they will
stay in place.
14. When the jib is stowed, the boom can not be fully
retracted if a boom tip attachment option is installed.
WARNING
Tipping Hazard!
The mid-extend outrigger beam lock pin must be engaged
before operating on any beam from the mid-extend
position.
The proper load chart and LMI program must be selected
for the current outrigger configuration.
