Chapter 2 - Installation
General Installation
This chapter is designed to serve as a general guide for the installation of a Stellar
®
5521 Crane on
a Stellar
®
Service Body. Each installation is considered unique so certain portions of this chapter
may or may not apply to your direct application. If a question should arise during the installation
process, please contact Stellar
®
Customer Service at (800) 321 3741.
This crane is designed for use with a Stellar
®
Service Body installed on a vehicle that meets the
minimum chassis requirements of the crane. It is the installer’s responsibility to assure that the
crane is mounted on a platform that will support the maximum crane rating of this
crane.
Do not install this crane on a body not capable of handling the loads imposed on
it. Failure to do so may result in serious injury or death.
When installing welder units to the service bodies, it is highly recommended that
a surge protector is installed on the chassis batteries to protect the crane radio receiver, wiring and
other electronic devices from an unexpected electrical spike or surge. Failure to do so could result
in extensive damage to the service body and crane electrical circuit.
