e.
Raise and Lower Load.
Load hook must not extend beyond attaching point of load.
When lifting load, boom will deflect slightly and load radius
will increase depending on length of boom and weight of load.
Boom deflection may cause load to swing out and cause injury
or death to personnel and/or damage to equipment.
Ensure that area is clear of personnel before moving SWING
control lever. Boom should be swung slow enough so crane
operator has complete control. If operator cannot see load
during operation, operator crane from REMOTE CONTROL
UNIT. Boom moving out of control could cause serious injury
or death.
Operator should use REMOTE CONTROL UNIT if the load
will pass overhead. Load could fall, causing serious injury or
death.
Do not let cable become slack. Cable may get tangled on drum
and damage cable.
Do not drag load sideways on ground. Dragging load could
cause damage to crane.
