4. Rated Capacities above the red line are based on the machine’s hydraulic
or structural competence and not on machine stability. Rated Capacities
below the red line are based on machine stability.
5. Rated Capacities include the mass of hooks, blocks, slings and auxiliary
lifting devices. Their mass must be subtracted, from the listed Rated
Capacity, to determine the equivalent net load.
6. Loaded Boom Angles at specified boom lengths give only an approximation
of the Load Radius. The Boom Angle before loading should be greater to
account for boom deflection increasing the Load Radius as the load is lifted.
OPERATION
1. Read and understand all warnings and instructional notes.
2. Do not tip the machine to determine allowable lifting capacities.
3. Loads may be lifted from the main boom head on the winch, the rhino hook,
the fixed lug, or either of the two sliding lugs on the boom. A flyjib is also
available to extend the maximum boom length and a manbasket can be
pinned to the head of the boom. Always use the correct Rated Capacity
chart for the lifting point in use and ensure the LMI is set to the correct duty.
Written authorisation from Terex Lifting Australia Pty Ltd is required prior to
the use of any attachment not specified in the manual.
4. Lifting from more than one lifting point simultaneously is neither intended nor
approved.
5. Handling of personnel from the boom is neither intended nor approved,
except in a Terex Lifting Australia supplied manbasket, correctly installed on
the head of the boom, or other approved arrangement.
6. When either the boom length or Load Radius or both are between values
listed, the smallest load shown at either the next larger Load Radius or
boom length shall be used, or the interpolated value shown on the LMI may
be used.
7. Side Loading of the machine and load swing out may cause structural failure
or machine tip-over. Side Loads may be generated by: lifting when not
level; sudden acceleration or deceleration in Articulating with a load;
dragging a load; pushing a load; wind forces on load and boom structure
and unstable ground.
8. It is safe to attempt to telescope any load within the limits of the Rated
Capacity Manual. The maximum load that may be telescoped is limited by
hydraulic pressure, Loaded Boom Angle and powered boom sections
lubrication.
