WARNING
Structural Damage Hazard!
A sudden release of load and/or dynamic loading (due to
swinging, hoisting, or lowering and adverse weather
conditions to include wind) may cause structural damage
due to shock loading and unintended motion of the crane.
The auxiliary frame assembly is provided to limit
unintended motion of the VPC-MAX beam and
counterweights during a sudden release of load and/or
dynamic loading (due to swinging, hoisting, or lowering
and adverse weather conditions to include wind).
The auxiliary frame assembly in no way substitutes for, or
lessens, the requirement that the crane must be operated
properly and safely, and that it must be inspected,
serviced, and maintained regularly to minimize the
potential for a sudden release of load and/or dynamic
loading (due to swinging, hoisting, or lowering and
adverse weather conditions to include wind).
