ever allow anyone to ride the crane hook or load.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

Never modify or alter any of the equipment, whether mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic, without explicit approval from Stellar Industries.

Do not perform any maintenance or repair work on the crane unless authorized and trained to do so.

Release system pressure before attempting to make any adjustments or repairs.

Do not attempt service or repair when the PTO is engaged.

Failure to correctly plumb and wire the crane can cause a malfunction and damage to the crane and/or operator.

Decals are considered safety equipment. They must be maintained, as would other safety devices. Do not remove any Decals. Replace any Decals that are missing, damaged, or not legible. The safety instruction plates, notices, load charts and any other sticker applied to the crane or service body must be kept legible and in good condition. If necessary, replace them.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Keep clear of all moving parts.

Always wear the prescribed personal safety devices.

Always wear approved accident-prevention clothing such as: protective helmets, anti-slip shoes with steel toes, protective gloves, anti-noise headphones, protective glasses, and reflective jackets with breathing apparatus. Consult your employer regarding current safety regulations and accidentprevention equipment.

Do not wear rings, wristwatch, jewelry, loose-fitting or hanging clothing such as ties, torn garments, scarves, unbuttoned jackets or unzipped overalls, which could get caught up in the moving parts of the crane.

Keep a first-aid box and a fire extinguisher readily available on the truck. Regularly check to make sur the fire extinguisher is fully charged and the first-aid kit is stocked.

STABILITY

Know the crane components and their capabilities and limitations. Overloading the crane may result in serious injury to self and others, and damage to the equipment and immediate surroundings.

Never exceed manufacturer’s load ratings. These ratings are based on the machine’s hydraulic, mechanical, and structural design rather than stability.

The supporting surface under the service truck must be able to support the weight of the machine and its load. Use outrigger pads if necessary.

Park the vehicle on level gr outriggers fully out and then down.

Keep feet and legs clear when lowering outrigger jacks.

Never operate the crane without making sure the outriggers are positioned on stable, flat ground.

8. Do not load boom in a sideways direction.

9. Know the weight of the rigging and load to avoid overloading the crane.

10. Do not extend or rotate a load over anyone.

11. Wear protective gear such as hard hat, safety glasses, steel-toed boots, and gloves.

Crane Transport

Before transporting the crane, do the following:

1. The crane must be in the stored position.

2. Outriggers must be securely stowed and not extended horizontally or vertically.

3. Hook and sheave assemblies must be securely fastened to prevent swinging.

4. All loose accessories, tools, and remote controls must be securely stored in their respective compartments or fasteners.

5. The PTO must be disengaged.

6. The parking brake must not be released until all of the above procedures are completed.

7. Do not drive the carrier vehicle while a load is present on the hook.

8. Do not drive the carrier vehicle with less than proper tire inflation.

9. Do not drive the carrier vehicle in areas where the vertical clearance is unknown.

10. Do not allow personnel to ride on the equipment during transport.

Hook Precautions

1. Hooks are designed and manufactured to lift specific loads. The specified rated load of a hook applies to loads held uniformly in direct tension and does not take into account shock loads, hook tip loading, side loading, bending, torsional, or related loads.

2. Do not attempt to lift a load that is larger than the load rating of the hook.

3. Never use a hook’s yield point as an indicator of its capacity.

4. Do not use a hook to lift personnel.

5. Know the rated load of the hook in use.

6. Never weld attachments to a finished hook in field applications. This will alter and destroy the design properties of the hook material.

7. Keep fingers, hands, body, and loose clothing from between the hook and the load.

8. Avoid shock loading.

9. Inspect the hook regularly for excessive wear and maintain it in safe operating condition.

Gear-Bearing Bolt Maintenance

Anytime a gear-bearing bolt is removed, it must be replaced with a new bolt of the identical grade and size. Once a bolt has been torqued to 75% of its proof load and then removed, the torque coefficient may no longer be the same as when the bolt was new thus giving indeterminate damp loads after torquing.

Warning!

Failure to replace gear-bearing bolts may result in bolt failure due to metal fatigue causing serious injury or even death.

1. Bolt manufacturer’s particular specifications should be consulted when provided.

2. Flat washers of equal strength must be used.

3. All torque measurements are given in foot-pounds. To convert to inch-pounds, multiply by 12.

4. Torque values specified are for bolts with residual oils or no special lubricants applied. If special lubricants of high stress ability, such as Never-Seez compound graphite and oil, molybdenum disulphite, colloidal copper or white lead are applied, multiply the torque values in the charts by the factor .90. The use of Loctite does not affect the torque values listed above.

5. Torque values for socket-head capscrews are the same as for Grade 8 capscrews.

Type of Inspection Information

Daily and monthly inspections are to be performed by a “designated” person, who has been selected by the employer or the employer’s representative as being competent to perform specific duties.

Quarterly and annual inspections are to be performed by a “qualified” person who, by possession of a recognized degree in an applicable field or certificate of professional standing, or who, by extensive knowledge, training and experience has successfully demonstrated the ability to solve or resolve problems related to the subject matter and work.

One hour of normal crane operation assumes 20 complete cycles per hour. If operation exceeds 20 cycles per hour, inspection frequency should be increased accordingly.

Consult the Stellar Owner’s Manual for additional inspection items.

Before inspecting and operating the crane, make certain that t he crane is set up away from power lines and leveled with outriggers fully extended.

Daily (D): Before each day of operation, those items with a (D) must be inspected. This inspection need not be recorded unless a deficiency is found.

Monthly (M): Monthly inspections or 100 hours of normal operation (which ever comes first) includes all daily and monthly inspection items plus items designated with a (Q). This inspection must be recorded.

Quarterly (Q): Every three months or 300 hours of normal operation (which ever comes first) includes all daily and monthly inspection items plus items designated with an (M). This inspection must be recorded.

Annual (A): Each year or 1200 hours of normal operation (which ever comes first) includes all items on this form which encompasses daily, monthly, and quarterly inspections plus those items designated by (A). this inspection must be recorded.

General Installation

This chapter is designed to serve as a general guide

or the installation of a Stellar 28000 Articulating

f 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. Check with Stellar Industries before installing this crane on a body other than a Stellar Service Body.

WARNING!

The use of this crane on a body not

capable of handling the loads imposed on

it may result in serious injury or death.

Notice:

PTO and Pump installation instructions are provided by the corresponding manufacturers. For more information on which PTO and Pump fit your application, please contact your local Stellar Distributor or Stellar Customer Service.

Installation Notice

According to Federal Law (49 cfr part 571), each

inal-stage manufacturer shall complete the vehicle

f in such a manner that it conforms to the standards in effect on the date of manufacture of the incomplete vehicle, the date of final completion, or a date between those two dates. This requirement shall, however, be superseded by any conflicting provisions of a standard that applies by its terms to vehicles manufactured in two or more stages.

Therefore, the installer of Stellar cranes and bodies is considered one of the manufacturers of the vehicle. As such a manufacturer, the installer is responsible for compliance with all applicable federal and state regulations. They are required to certify that the vehicle is in compliance with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and other regulations issued under the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.

Please reference the Code of Federal Regulations, title 49 - Transportation, Volume 5 (400-999), for further information, or visit http://www.gpoaccess.gov/nara/index.html for the full text of Code of Federal Regulations.

Installation Overview

For more detail, please contact

Stellar Customer Service

1. Relocate any obstructions on the frame that will be in the way of mounting the crane.

2. Measure the inside of the frame rails and cut the frame support to this length. Ensure that the frame supports have a tight fit between the frame rails.

3. Set the crane on the chassis and allow a minimum of 2” from the cab.

4. Install the crane tie downs. Start at one corner and tighten both tie downs to 200 ft-lbs. Move to the diagonal set and tighten to 200 ft-lbs. Tighten the remaining 2 corners. Continue this pattern at 200 ft-lb increments until 650-700 ftlbs is achieved. Be sure the mounting block stays perpendicular to the frame rail as they are tightened down.

5. Connect the pressure and return lines per the hydraulic kit.

6. Connect the (+12V) power and ground wires.

7. Check the reservoir for oil and fill if necessary.

8. Operate the crane for several cycles.

Chapter 8 - Hydraulics - Electrical

WARNING!

Please read the following section before performing any work on the hydraulic/electrical

system of your crane. This section contains vital safety information and maintenance

guidlines for your crane. If questions should arise, please contact

Stellar Customer Service at 800-321-3741

33Hydraulics - Electrical 33

Never modify or alter any of the equipment, whether mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic, without Stellar Industries’ approval.

Release system pressure before attempting to make adjustments or repairs.

Do not attempt service or repair when PTO is engaged.

Disassemble and assemble hydraulic components on a clean surface.

Clean all metal parts in a nonflammable cleaning fluid. Then lubricate all components to aid in assembly.

Hydraulic fluid expands when heated. This raises the pressure in an unventilated tank. Release the tank pressure before removing the cap completely. Failure to do so may cause the oil to shoot out of the tank very rapidly and cause severe burns.

When installing metal hydraulic tubes, tighten all bolts finger tight. Then , in order, tighten the bolts at the rigid end, the adjustable end, and the mounting brackets. After tubes are mounted, install the hoses. Connect both ends of the hose with all bolts finger tight. Position the hose so it does not rub the machine or another hose and has a minimum of bending and twisting. Tighten bolts in both couplings.

Due to manufacturing methods, there is a natural curvature to a hydraulic hose. The hose should be installed so any bend is with this curvature.

Warning! If hydraulic fluid escapes, the boom or crane can fall immediately. Make sure the ground or blocking is supporting the boom before performing any maintenance or repair. Do not rely on the hydraulic fluid to support the boom or crane.

Contaminants in a hydraulic system affect operation and will result in serious damage to the system components. Dirty hydraulic systems are a major cause of component failures.

If evidence of foreign particles is found in the hydraulic system, flush the system.

Chapter 10 - Troubleshooting

39Troubleshooting 39

This chapter will list a number of

potential problems that may occur

while operating the crane. Most

problems are easily solved using the

solutions portion of this chapter. If

problems persist, please contact

Customer Service at Stellar Industries

1-800-321-3741.

Problem: Crane will not operate. Solutions:

• Make sure that the parking brake is engaged.

• Make sure that the PTO is engaged.

• Make sure that there is 12V power going to the radio receiver. If there is no power going to the receiver, trace back to the power source and check for a blown fuse or loose ground connection.

• Make sure that the transmitter batteries are fully charged. (Rechargeable batteries are good for 11 months or 200 charges)

• Make sure that the hydraulic pump is operating at its rated flow or GPMs. Check the flow by using the flow meter to determine the GPMs. It is possible that the hydraulic pump is getting weak. If this is suspected, contact Stellar Customer Service.

Problem: Crane operates slowly. Solutions:

• Make sure that the crane is receiving the recommended GPMs to operate.

• Check the level of hydraulic fluid in the reservoir. Add fluid as needed.

• Check to see if the valve bank proportional valve is operating.

• Make sure the proportional valve is receiving 12V power when operating a function.

Problem: Crane will operate manually but will not operate electrically. Solutions:

• Make sure that there is 12V power going to the radio receiver. If there is no power going to the receiver, trace back to the power source and check for a blown fuse or loose ground connection.

• Make sure that the parking brake is engaged.

• Make sure that the parking brake switch is working properly. Check the parking brake switch by performing a continuity test. If the switch is defective, simply replace it.

• Make sure the “Power” LED is on outside the receiver door cover. This light is the upper light on the receiver door. If the light does not come on, check wiring back to the fuse. If the fuse is OK, check system ground wires and connections.

• Make sure the green LED on the receiver door is lit green. This light will come on when the red e-stop is pulled upward and the toggle switch is activated on the transmitter. If the radio system does not link up and no green light is lit on the receiver - make sure that the battery is fully charged, check the battery contact points to make s ure they are not tarnished or corroded. Clean contact points and recharge or replace the battery.

• When battery voltage is acceptable, the power LED light on the transmitter will be solid. If the voltage becomes low, the LED light will begin to blink and the battery will need to be charged or replaced.

If problems persist, please contact

1-800-321-3741

40 28000 Owner’s Manual

Problem: Not all crane functions operate using the radio remote transmitter or crane operates intermittently. Solutions:

• Make sure that the function switch is working properly. If the switch is defective, simply replace it.

• Make sure that there is power going from the valve bank twin solenoid or to the function that will not operate. If no power is going to the twin solenoid, check wiring connections on wire harness plug connector for broken wires, loose connection or poor crimp. If power is going to the solenoid valve, it may not be opening to allow hydraulic oil to the function that is not operating. Check the twin solenoid for polarity, if solenoid does not magnetize, replace the twin solenoid.

Problem: Cylinder drifts outward or downward. Solutions:

• Check to see if there is air in the hydraulic system. Operate all cylinders connected to the hydraulic system. Start with the extension cylinder, then operate the main boom, winch, rotation, and ending with the hydraulic outriggers, if installed. When operating, extend each cylinder halfway out, retract all the way in, and then extend until the cylinder rod is at the end of its stroke. Operate cylinders slowly so air is pushed thru the system to the reservoir. Repeat this cycle 2-3 times.

• Make sure the holding valves are operating properly. Remove, clean, and then inspect each holding valve. When removing a holding valve, always relieve the pressure inside the cylinder by loosening jam nut of the holding valve and turning set screw inward/clockwise. Count the number of turns until the set screw is seated. When reinstalling the holding valve, make sure the valve is reset by turning the set screw the number of turns it took to relieve the pressure. Finish by tightening the jam nut.

• Check the cylinder rod for scratches. If a scratch is located on the cylinder rod, hydraulic fluid can pass thru and cause a loss of pressure. Replace cylinder rod or cylinder.

• Check to see if the piston seals are damaged. If they show signs of damage, install a new cylinder seal kit.

Problem: Outer “Extend” and Extension In and Out will not operate Manually or Remotely. Solutions:

• Check to see if the functional cut out connector,

located on the valve section is lit. Note: Functional cut out connectors will have an LED light on when electrical power is present

• Check to see if there is 12 volt power going to functional cut out connector.

• Check to make sure the Bosch relay is functioning properly. It is located just behind the panic bar E-stop switch. If functional cut out connector is lighting properly, check to make sure the connector is tight.
