4.5.
To lower load, put your hand on the release valve and turn it slowly anti-clockwise. This crane is fitted with a ‘dead man’ control which
stops the descent when your hand leaves the release knob.
4.6.
The crane is not a transportation device but may be used to reposition the load ready for working on. To do so lower the load and jib
to the lowest possible point before attempting to move. Do not attempt to move in a sideways direction.
The crane is not designed to sustain the load indefinitely.
When you have positioned the load for working, fully lower the load onto a secure and appropriate working base, being aware of your
own and other persons locations in relation to the lowering load.
4.7.
When the load has been successfully lowered and secured, remove the lifting harnesses etc., and place the crane in a safe location
having ensured the lifting beam and piston are fully retracted.
5. MAINTENANCE
NOTE: The crane MUST be maintained in accordance with these instructions.
5.1.
Always keep the crane clean and dry.
5.2.
Lubrication
5.2.1. Oil all working parts monthly.
5.2.2. 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.

b) Fully lower the jib extension arm.
c) Remove filler plug (hexagonal bolt positioned near the top of the ram) and fill to the bottom of hole. Replace filler plug.
d) DO NOT OVERFILL as this will cause failure.
e) After filling with hydraulic oil, pump the crane up to its full height and allow any excess oil to run off.
