2 Safety
Crane-lifting
• Seal off the danger zone.
• The crane and the lifting gear must have suitable
dimensions.
• Observe the machine’s overall weight – see “Technical
data”.
• Wear protective clothing and equipment when
fastening, guiding and removing the machine (for
example a hard hat, safety glasses, safety boots).
• Use only lifting and fastening gear certified by a test/
certification body (for example, cables, belts, hooks,
shackles), observe the inspection intervals.
• Do not use any lifting and fastening gear that is dirty,
damaged or not of sufficient size.
• Perform a visual check to ensure that all slinging
points are neither damaged nor worn (no widening, no
sharp edges, no cracks).
• Have loads fastened and crane operators only guided
by experienced persons.
• The person guiding the crane operator must be within
sight or sound of him.
• Observe all movements of the machine and lifting
gear.
• Secure the vehicle against unintentional movement.
• Raise the vehicle only after it is safely attached and
the person attaching the vehicle has given his
approval.
• Use only the slinging points provided for fastening the
lifting gear (for example, cables, belts).
• Do not attach the machine by twining the lifting gear
(for example, cables, belts) around it.
• Ensure an even load distribution (center of gravity!)
when fastening the lifting gear.
• Ensure that no one is in, on or under the vehicle when
loading the vehicle.
• Observe the national regulations (for example,
“Merkheft Erdbaumaschinen”, leaflet on earth moving
machines of the German employers’ liability insurance
association for construction engineering).
• Load the vehicle only in accordance with this
Operator’s Manual to avoid damage to the vehicle.
• Do not raise a machine that is for example, stuck or
frozen onto the ground.
• Bear in mind the weather conditions (for example, the
wind force, visibility conditions).
