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 machine against unintentional movement.
• Raise the machine only after it is safely attached and the person
attaching the machine 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 machine when loading the
machine.
• Observe the national regulations (for example “Merkheft Erdbaumas-
chinen”, leaflet on earth moving machines of the German employers’
liability insurance association for construction engineering).
• Load the machine only in accordance with this Operator’s Manual to
avoid damage to the machine.
• 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).
