– Loop the lifting straps through the recess (8)
in the counterweight, see illustration.
DANGER
Never crane-load the truck using the tow coupling.
The tow coupling is not designed for this and could
be deformed or damaged. The truck could fall off,
with potentially fatal consequences!
Hooking the crane belt to an available tow coupling
(11) is only permitted on an additional lifting eye (5)
approved for this purpose.
If an additional lifting eye is not present at the tow
coupling, one can be retrofitted by the service
team or the tow coupling can be removed for crane
loading.
– Hook crane belt onto the additional lifting eye.
– If necessary seek advice from STILL service.
– Determine the truck’s centre of gravity.
NOTE
The centre of gravity is indicated by the symbol
"S" in the operating instructions; see the sec-
tion entitled "Dimensions" ⇒ Chapter "Techni-
cal data", P. 337.

– Set the length of the harnesses so that the
lifting eye (9) is vertically above the truck’s
centre of gravity.
This ensures that the truck hangs level when
lifting it.
– Connect the lifting straps to the lifting eye
and insert the safety device (10).
CAUTION
Incorrectly fitted harnesses may damage attach-
ment parts!
Pressure from the harnesses can damage or
destroy attachment parts when the truck is lifted.
If attachment parts are in the way (e.g. lighting, rear
window, trademark emblem etc.), these must be
removed before loading. Ask your service centre
about this.
– Secure harnesses so that they are not touching
any attachment parts.
