Section-1 Safety
To avoid the risk of accidents, cover sharp edges,
corners, and dangerous projections on suspended
loads. Attach a warning sign or caution tape.
Never work or stand under suspended loads.
11. A signaler giving instructions must be within sight of
the crane operator and must be provided with a radio
or comparable verbal link.
12. Use blocks or safety stands to support the machine
when working around or under areas that pose a fall-
ing/crushing hazard.
13. For overhead assembly work, use suitable ladders
and/or platforms. Never climb on the machine itself.
Wear a safety harness when carrying out maintenance
work at heights of 6 feet or greater.
14. Clean the machine, especially connections and thread-
ed unions of any traces of oil, fuel or preservatives
before carrying out maintenance/repairs. Never use
aggressive detergents. Use lint-free cleaning cloths.
15. Before cleaning the machine with water, steam, high-
pressure washer, or cleaning agents, protect all sensi-
tive components against ingress of water, steam, or
chemical agents. Take appropriate protective precau-
tions with electric motors, switching cabinets, circuit
cards, and other sensitive electronic components. After
cleaning, completely remove any materials used to
protect components.
16. After cleaning, examine all fuel, lubricant, and hydrau-
lic oil lines, for leaks, loose connections, scuffing, or
other damage. Correct any defects immediately.
17. Reinstall and/or tighten any screw connections that
have been loosened or removed during maintenance
and repairs.
18. After completing any adjustment, maintenance, or re-
pair work, reinstall and test all safety devices, shields
and guards, before returning the machine to operation.
19. Ensure that consumables, lubricants, and replaced
parts, are disposed of safely and with proper environ-
mental consideration.
1.16. Maintenance and Inspection Guidelines (Cont.)
3. Perform adjustment, maintenance, and inspection ac-
tivities according to the directions and schedule speci-
fied in this manual. These tasks must be performed by
trained personnel.
4. Alert operating personnel before undertaking any
maintenance work. Appoint a person who is responsi-
ble for overseeing the maintenance work and coordi-
nating with the operating personnel while the equip-
ment is out of operation.
5. Locate the machine on a flat, stable area before per-
forming lubrication, adjustments, repairs, or other
maintenance work. Chock and brace the machine as
necessary to prevent movement or shifting.
6. Secure the maintenance area before starting work. All
bystanders, especially children, should be moved to a
safe distance.
7. Prepare the machine for safe performance of the
maintenance work.
Place all controls in a neutral or off position.
Isolate the machine from its power source.
In the case of tractors and engine-driven ma-
chines, switch off the engine, remove the ignition
key, and as appropriate lock or otherwise secure
the control station. Attach a warning sign if neces-
sary.
In the case of electrically driven machines, discon-
nect the power cable. As appropriate lock or oth-
erwise secure the control station. Attach a warning
sign if necessary.
In the case of hydraulically driven machines, dis-
connect the hydraulic supply lines. As appropriate
lock or otherwise secure the control station. Attach
a warning sign if necessary.
8. Use the correct tool(s) for the job. Tools should be
inspected regularly and immediately removed from
service if worn or damaged.
9. When replacing large parts and subassemblies, over-
head lifting may be required.
10. Entrust the securing and hoisting of loads to certified
crane operators only.
Inspect all hoisting and lifting gear before each
use. Confirm lifting gear is structurally sound, is in
proper working condition, and has adequate load
capacity for the intended lift.
1.16. Maintenance and Inspection Guidelines (Cont.)
To prevent inadvertent activation of systems or
components, do not allow access to machine controls
while maintenance is being performed.
