3. SAFETY
3.1. SAFETY
3 Keep crane, lifting slings, support and beams in good working order and condition. Follow the inspection requirements as described in Section 6, Maintenance. Take immediate action to repair or replace damaged parts by contacting your supplier.
Ensure that all accessory lifting devices are suitable. If crane is damaged, remove from service immediately.
3 Ensure that the crane is securely fixed to the surface or vehicle on which it is to be mounted. 3 Keep children and unauthorised persons away from the working area. 3 Keep working area clean and tidy, free from unrelated materials and ensure that there is adequate lighting. 3 Ensure that load does not exceed the maximum lifting capacity of the crane. Overloading the crane is dangerous. Where
appropriate, use only the lifting points recommended by the manufacturer of the item to be lifted, e.g. vehicle engine. 3 Before lifting the load ensure that the crane boom is in the lowest practical position, that there are no obstacles which may snag the load whilst it is being lifted and that the area above the boom is clear. 3 To avoid injury, be fully aware of your own and other persons locations in relation to the lifting, and lowering, of the load.

3 Keep a sound footing and balance, and ensure the floor is not slippery, and wear non-slip footwear. 3 Ensure boom extension locking pin and 'R' pin are in position before lifting. 3 Ensure the centre of gravity always remains inside the crane base. 7 DO NOT harness the load at an angle or use any attachments not verified as fit for purpose. 7 DO NOT allow the load to swing during lifting. 7 DO NOT allow the load to drop suddenly. Lower load with care, ensuring that you are fully aware of the condition of the surface onto
which the load is to be placed. 7 DO NOT load crane beyond its rated capacity for each specified boom extension position as indicated in Section 2.1 page 2. The capacity of the crane reduces as the boom is extended.
7 DO NOT position any part of your body beneath the load. 7 DO NOT attempt to adjust the safety valve, which has been set and sealed by the manufacturer. 7 DO NOT use this crane to perform a task for which it is not designed. 7 DO NOT use whilst under the influence of drugs, alcohol or intoxicating medication. 7 DO NOT climb on the crane. 3 When not in use store in a safe, childproof area. WARNING! Failure to heed safety and warning instructions may result in damage and/or personal injury and will invalidate the
warranty.
4. ASSEMBLY
WARNING! The base (fig.1) must be fastened securely to the surface or vehicle on which it is to be mounted. Owing to the design of this crane, the mounting is subject to substantial leverage.
4.1. Solid Mounting: Use anchor bolts of suitable size and design to
secure the base. If in any doubt, consult a specialist with the relevant knowledge.
4.2. Vehicle Mounting: When mounting on a vehicle, consult the vehicle manufacturer and/or bodybuider to determine a suitable location on which to mount the crane. Incorrect mounting could affect the stability of the vehicle when using the crane.

6. MAINTENANCE / EXAMINATION / INSPECTION
NOTE: The crane MUST be kept clean and dry and must be maintained in accordance with these instructions.
6.1. LUBRICATION. a) Oil all working parts monthly. b) The ram is filled with oil and should only require occasional topping up. DO NOT use brake fluid, as this will damage the hydraulic seals and invalidate the warranty. Proceed as follows:
a) Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil available from your supplier.
b) DO NOT OVERFILL as this will cause failure. c) After filling with hydraulic oil via filler plug (fig.2.C), pump the crane up to its full height and pour off any excess oil.
6.2. INSPECTION AND EXAMINATION OF CRANE BEFORE USE.
a) Before each use of the crane you must perform an inspection for leaks, damage, loose or missing parts. b) The crane must be examined immediately if it has been subject to an abnormal load or shock. It is recommended that such an examination is made by an authorised service agent.
c) The owner and/or operator must be aware that repair of this equipment will require specialised knowledge and facilities.
It is recommended that an annual examination of the workshop crane is made by an authorised service agent. d) Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Note! See the Definition of ‘Inspection’ and ‘Examination’ below.
INSPECTION:
Looking at the crane for defects and checking the operation of the controls, limiting and indicating devices without loading the crane.
This is more than a check but does not normally require any part of the crane to be dismantled other than removal or opening of
covers or housings.
EXAMINATION:
Verification that the crane can continue safely in service including a functional test of all safety devices i.e. limiting, indicating
equipment, brakes, clutches, safety valves etc to verify that they operate within the required tolerances. An examination is more
thorough than an inspection.
7. OWNER’S & OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES
The owner and/or operator shall study these instructions and retain them for future use.
a) Understanding instructions and warnings.
The owner and/or operator shall understand the operating instructions and warnings before operating the crane. Warning information must be emphasised and understood. If the operator is not fluent in English, the product instructions and warnings must be read to, and discussed with, the operator in the operator’s native language by the owner, making sure the operator understands the contents.
b) Damaged Cranes.
Any crane which appears to be damaged, badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE! It is recommended that necessary repairs be made by an authorised service agent.
c) End of service.
Through years of normal wear, the crane will eventually become unserviceable. When this happens ensure the hydraulic oil is drained off and disposed of in accordance with local authority regulations.
d) STORAGE.
Always store the crane fully closed so that the boom is in lowest position and the ram is closed. Prevent the crane from rotating by tightening the locking arm.
