2.2.2 Travel Performance

Speed
- highest speed technically possible (due to design): 80 km/h
(50 mph)
- Permitted speed: There are different reliable maximum speeds,
depending on axle load and tyres (see 5.3 Tyres, axle loads and
permitted driving speed, Page 81).
- There may be a speed limit, depending on the country.
Depending on the variant, the crane is equipped with a speed limita-

tion device.
Climbing ability
Tyre size and number of driven axles determine the theoretical climb-
ing ability of the mobile crane. The climbing ability values listed below
are a result of the most unfavourable combination:
- 53% during off-road travel
- 40% during road travel
The actual possible climbing ability depends on the ground conditions
and the state of the tyres. The possible theoretical climbing ability
cannot be achieved if conditions are bad. The tyres will spin.
The climbing ability for starting is reduced by at least 3% in each

case.
Parking brake
The parking brake holds the crane (without dolly) on a maximum in-
cline / downhill slope of 18%, but not on the maximum drivable in-
cline / downhill slope (see Climbing ability). The crane with dolly is
held by the parking brake on a maximum incline / downhill slope of 12
%. The crane can roll away on greater inclines / slopes despite the
parking brake being applied.
DANGER
There is a risk of accidents when parking on in-
clines / downhill slopes due to the crane rolling away
unexpectedly.
The crane must always be additionally secured
against rolling away by placing wheel chocks under-
neath it.

5.1.3 Checking Transport Locks

The following transport locks must be applied before starting any jour-
ney:
- When driving with the hook block reeved, fasten it to the front cou-
pling ring of the crane chassis or place it in the hook block support
and secure.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the driver's cab!
Before the hook block is set down in the hook block support, the
hoist limit switch shift weight must be secured in the transport
position, see the operating instructions of the superstructure in
"Reevings" under "Reeving/unreeving the hoist rope".
- When driving without a hook block, fasten the hoist rope to the
front coupling ring of the crane chassis with the rope socket.
- Ensure that the slew gear parking brake is actuated (see the oper-
ating instructions of the superstructure under "Slewing the super-
structure").
- The platform on the crane operator’s cab must be pushed into
transport position.
- Check the transport position of the outriggers (see 12.4 Placing
the Outriggers in the Transport Condition, Page 237).
- Main boom and superstructure in the transport position (see the
operating instructions of the superstructure).
- The hinged ladders must be folded up and secured in the transport
position (see the operating instructions of the superstructure under
"Structure of the mobile crane").
- Check the transport position of the work light (see the superstruc-
ture's operating instructions at "Structure of the mobile crane").
- There may not be any loose components on the crane.
After driving and before the superstructure is put into operation, the
safety locks must be removed again.
5.2 Starting the engine in cold weather
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If temperatures are low, the lubricity of engine and transmission oils
can be affected negatively. Driving with a cold vehicle can lead to
damage to the drive and power units.
After starting a cold engine, let the engine warm up at low
speeds.
80 82201 2014-11-19
5 Driving
If temperatures are low, the lubricity of engine and transmission oils

can be affected negatively. After starting a cold engine, the engine
must warm up at low speeds so that all engine and transmission ele-
ments are well lubricated. The warm-up time increases if ambient
temperatures are low.
Recommended warm-up times:
Ambient temperature (C°) Warm-up time (minutes)

0° and higher 5
0° to -10° 8
-10° to -20° 10
-20° and lower 20
5.3 Tyres, axle loads and permitted driving speed

The permitted driving speed depends on the axle load and tyres.
There is a direct correlation between axle load, tyre size and permit-
ted driving speed.
Axle loads which are technically possible are not necessarily permit-
ted by road traffic regulations.
The crane operator and crane driver must undertake to ensure that
the permitted axle loads are adhered to and are evenly distributed
and that any limits are observed. If the axle loads are exceeded or
other regulations are not followed, they carry sole responsibility. As a
general rule, the information in this section and the corresponding
subsections must always be complied with strictly.
NOTICE
Any deviation from the approved condition results in a deterio-
ration in the driving characteristics.
The greater the deviations, the worse the driving characteristics
become.
Comply with the relevant instructions in the following subsec-
tions.
NOTICE
When driving on public roads, different axle loads are permit-
ted in different countries.
The crane operator and crane driver must undertake to ensure
that the local regulations are adhered to.
82201 2014-11-19 81
5 Driving
5.3.1 Tyres
Note the relationship between the axle loads and the driving speed
for particular tyres!
The determining factor is the axle that is placed under the highest
load.
DANGER
Risk of accidents due to overloading of tyres!
You must observe the permitted maximum speed for
the actual axle load. Failure to comply with these in-
structions can result in the tyres being overloaded
and bursting.
DANGER
Risk of accident due to overloading of tyres when
driving at construction sites or off-road!
The service life of tyres is dramatically shortened
when driven off-road. After an accumulated distance
of 20 km (12 mi) the tyres will need to be replaced.
"On Road" means driving on public roads.

"Off Road" means driving on a construction site, for example, but on a
flat and even road surface with load-bearing capacity.
Only tyres listed in the subsequent tables are permitted. Other manu-
facturers or other capacity indexes (identification) are not permitted.

5.3.2 Driving with Uneven Axle Loads
DANGER
RISK OF ACCIDENTS as a result of uneven axle
loads!
Uneven axle loads have a negative effect on the driving
behaviour.
Axle load ratios of 2:1 or higher are not permitted.
Drive carefully in accordance with the conditions!
Reduce your driving speed!
Change the vehicle configuration.
The braking system is designed for even axle loads of 12 t (26.4 kip)
in accordance with EC directives and German road traffic regulations.
92 82201 2014-11-19
5 Driving
Different axle loads at the front and rear represent a deviation from
the approved crane configuration. The driving characteristics of the
crane deteriorate more or less - depending on the deviation. The larg-
er the differences, the more serious the deterioration. React to poor
road conditions by further reducing the driving speed.
5.3.3 Driving with Reduced Axle Loads
DANGER
Risk of accidents due to changed behaviour during
braking!
The braking behaviour deteriorates when axle loads are
small.
Reduced axle loads have a negative effect on the handling of the ve-
hicle.
The braking system is designed and approved for axle loads of 12 t
(26.4 kip). With smaller axle loads, the crane is over-braked.
82201 2014-11-19 93
5 Driving
DANGER
Risk of accidents due to altered behaviour of the
suspension!
With smaller axle loads, the crane no longer has a func-
tioning suspension. The suspension system reacts in a
different manner.
Brake carefully in accordance with the conditions!
The standard-equipped suspension system is designed for axle loads

12 t (26.4 kip). The suspension becomes "harder" with lower axle
loads. If the axle loads are below 8 t (17.6 kip), the crane behaves as
if the suspension were blocked. The crane vehicle could start to skid.
If the crane is driven alternately with two axle load configurations,
special equipment of the crane can be used to switch the suspension
via switch actuation between the 12 t (26.4 kip) axle load configura-
tion and the axle load configuration with reduced axle loads The ap-
propriate switch is located in the driver's cab (see 11 Hydraulic Sus-
pension, Page 177).
If the charging pressure of the accumulators of the suspension sys-
tem is not reduced, the maximum driving speed must be reduced.
The lower the axle load, the slower the driving speed must be. For
axle loads of less than 8 t (17.7 kip) the permitted maximum speed is
still no more than 30 km/h (18 mph). The maximum speed must be
reduced even further with additional axle load reduction and/or poor
road conditions.
5.3.4 Driving with axle loads up to 12 t (26.4 kip)

All chassis parts / components are designed, adjusted to each other
and approved ex works for even axle loads of 12 t (26.4 kip).
Axle loads exceeding and below 12 t (26.4 kip) indicate a deviation
from the documented EWG/ECE state of approval.
5.3.5 Driving with axle loads exceeding 12 t (26.4 kip)
DANGER
Risk of accident due to wear and tear!
Risk of accident due to premature wear of parts!
Concerning this, the summarised instructions, warn-
ings and specifications at 5.3.6 Shorter mainte-
nance intervals for axle loads above 12.5 t (27.6 kip),
Page 98 must be strictly observed.
94 82201 2014-11-19
5 Driving
DANGER
Risk of accidents due to exceeding axle loads!
Driving with axle loads over 12 t (26.4 kip) is always an
exceptional configuration and is only permitted for short
journeys; even if higher values are permitted by special
national regulations pertaining to axle loads.
Reduce the maximum driving speed!
All chassis parts / components are designed and approved ex works

for axle loads 12 t (26.4 kip) (approval condition). Axle loads of 12.5 t
(27.6 kip) mean that the approved crane condition has already been
exceeded.
DANGER
HIGH RISK OF ACCIDENTS!
Risk of serious accidents when the maximum speed is
exceeded!
The permissible top speed indicated in the tables in
5.3.1 Tyres, Page 82 at particular axle loads must be
observed. If these limit values are not observed, it
can cause components to fail prematurely and cause
serious accidents.
Axle loads over 12 t (26.4 kip) mean:

- Increased stress
- Overloading of tyres (for certain sizes).
- Extended braking distances and risk of fading
Increased stress
Axle loads of more than 12 t (26.4 kip) lead to increased loads on the
steering, axle suspension, axles, wheel hubs, bearings, suspension
system, suspension cylinders, brakes, wheels and tyres. This greatly
reduces the operating life and durability of the parts affected. Wear on
brake linings is particularly increased. There is a risk of overheating
(fading).
82201 2014-11-19 95
5 Driving
Loading / overloading of tyres

Abrupt stress (for example, driving against kerbs), bead damage or
cutting damage must be avoided under these more difficult working
conditions. Damage to a tyre can result from the combination of over-
loading and / or increased speed. Damage following a handling error
might not be immediately apparent. These add up over time and can
result in damage at a later time; after, for example, a more relatively
minor incident.
DANGER
Risk of accident caused by tyre damage!
Increased risk of accident caused by damaged tyres!
Maintenance work and repairs on the crane must be
performed by authorised specialist workshops only.
DANGER
RISK OF ACCIDENTS due to overloading of tyres!
Overladen tyres may burst! Serious material damage and
injury may result!
The permissible axle loads listed in the tables under
5.3.1 Tyres, Page 82 must be observed.
Extended braking distances and risk of fading

At axle loads above 12 t (26.4 kip) the braking deceleration required
in accordance with EC partial operating approval can no longer be
guaranteed / maintained. Stopping distances are extended from dis-
tinctly to considerably. There is a risk of overheating (fading) and a
high risk of accidents!
DANGER
Extended braking distances can result in serious in-
jury and property damage sein!
Higher axle loads (due to fading) lead to extended stop-
ping distances!
Avoid frequent acceleration and braking.
96 82201 2014-11-19
5 Driving
5.3.5.1 Driving with Axle Loads up to 12.5 t (27.6 kip)
DANGER
injury may result!
The maximum permitted speed must be observed for
the actual axle load (see 5.3.1 Tyres, Page 82).
Possible driving speeds are permitted only within existing tyre limit
values; i.e. the maximum possible speed must not be driven if the
tyres are not approved for that speed (for certain axle loads).
5.3.5.2 Driving with Axle Loads up to 16.5 t (36.4 kip)
This technically possible driving configuration does not meet the

regulations of the German road traffic licensing regulations nor
EEC/ECE directives.
Therefore driving in this region is only permitted on private roads
and grounds. These must have a sufficient load-bearing capacity
and must be sufficiently level (e.g. no potholes).
If the crane is to be driven with axle loads over 12.5 t (27.6 kip), the
following points must be observed:
- Short stretches only!
- The crane must not be steered on the spot or when on very un-
even ground.
- During the trip, follow the information shown in the display of the
driver information system in the "Level/Suspension" menu point.
- The pressures of the suspension circuits should be even and must
not exceed 260 bar (3771 psi).
- Determine the maximum permitted speed based on the current
axle load and adhere to it during driving (see 5.3.1 Tyres,
Page 82).
- Shorten the maintenance interval; carry out inspections more of-
ten.
DANGER
To do so, the specifications, warnings and regulations
listed in 5.3.6 Shorter maintenance intervals for
axle loads above 12.5 t (27.6 kip), Page 98 must be
followed.
82201 2014-11-19 97
5 Driving
The crane manufacturer shall not be held liable for damage resulting
from premature wear when driving with axle loads above 12.5 t
(27.6 kip).
To all intents and purposes, the crane operator and crane driver car-
ry the sole responsibility if the crane is driven with axle loads >12.5
t (27.6 kip).
5.3.6 Shorter maintenance intervals for axle loads above 12.5 t (27.6 kip)
DANGER
Risk of accidents as a result of worn components!
Faults which are not remedied increase the safety risks.
Premature wear or a total failure of the part will result!
Rectify any damage immediately.
WARNING
Improper maintenance and repair!
Poorly performed maintenance work or repairs on safety-
relevant parts can cause serious material damage and
injury.
The maintenance intervals for axle loads exceeding 12.5 t (27.6 kip)
are shorter than for axle loads up to 12.5 t (27.6 kip).
Carry out regular checks on the steering, axle suspension, axles,
wheel hubs, bearings, suspension system, suspension cylinders,
brakes, wheels and tyres - at least every 3 months - for damage and
wear. This applies especially to the setting of the steering geometry
and the brake linings!

5 Driving
5.4 Driving on Public Roads
DANGER
Risk caused by changes to driving- /steering- and
braking behaviour of the crane!
Before using public highways, the crane operator
must familiarise himself with the modified driving /
steering / braking behaviour (for example, (e. g. lon-
ger brake paths), especially if it deviates from the
state of approval .
When driving on public roads, the crane vehicle must be in a very

specific transport condition. The transport condition of the crane vehi-
cle depends on the road traffic regulations applicable in the country in
which the crane is to be operated.
The crane operator and crane driver must undertake to ensure that
the permitted axle loads are adhered to and are evenly distributed
and that any limits are observed. If the axle loads are exceeded or
other regulations are not followed, they carry sole responsibility. As a
general rule, the information in this section and the corresponding
subsections must always be complied with strictly.

5.6 Driving downhill
DANGER
Risk of fading!
Warming of the brakes can lead to a reduction in the
braking effect and as a result an increase in the braking
distance.
Only use the service brake briefly as an auxiliary
brake.
Before driving downhill, shift down a gear in good
time.
Choose the right gear so that the crane can be kept
at a constant speed along the downhill section.
When driving downhill:

- Reduce speed and select a lower gear.
- Observe the revolution counter so that the engine speed does not
rise to dangerous levels.
- Use non-wearing sustained-action brakes (exhaust brake, hydraul-
ic retarder).
If the oil temperature rises to prohibited values (over 150°C / 302°F) –

which leads to a coolant temperature which is too high – the braking
effect of the sustained-action brake is reduced.
If the braking effect of the sustained-action brake is not regulated by

the driver, the system automatically reduces the braking effect until
the permissible temperature has been reached again.
If the sustained-action brake is switched on, in automatic operating
mode the transmission automatically performs gear changes to ach-
ieve an optimum braking effect.

5.7 Hill-start assist

To ensure a safe start on inclines, the crane is equipped with a hill-
start assist.
The hill-start assist can be activated on uphill and downhill inclines.
Procedure:
1. Start the engine.
2. Press the hill-start assist button.
LED lights up. The system is switched on.
When the driver of the vehicle stops, the brake remains

closed for 3 seconds (hill-start assist activated) after the brake
pedal has been released. It is then re-opened.
The hill-start assist remains active until the ignition is turned off or
the button is pressed again.
The hill-start assist is active only at a controlled service brake pres-
sure of 1.5 bar.
Status LED:
- LED on: hill-start assist switched on.
- LED off: hill-start assist switched off.
- LED flashes: shortly before the end of the brake's holding period.
Error messages are displayed in the driver information system by a

red indicator light.

5.8 Driving over Hill Summits

When driving over hill summits, all axles must remain in contact with
the ground.
The crane operator carries the sole responsibility if damage occurs to
the crane chassis when an axle is raised because the "maximum sus-
pension travel is exceeded" or the "position of the suspension is
blocked" and the maximum permitted axle loads are exceeded.
If, however, an axle should lift off the ground, proceed as fol-
lows:
1. Stop the crane in a straight position.
2. Press the lower switch.

Indicator light illuminates. The longitudinal differential lock is

NOTICE
Risk of damage due to overloading the components!
The hydraulic suspension of the crane chassis must not be
locked and must be levelled (see 11 Hydraulic Suspension,
Page 177).
WARNING
Damage to the differential locks.
Activating and deactivating the differential locks during
the journey is prohibited.
Only activate/deactivate differential locks when the
vehicle is at a complete standstill.
The differential locks may only be switched on for a brief period of

time, in order to bypass obstacles when driving straight ahead. Driv-
ing speeds over 5 km/h (3 mph) overload both tyres and drive. After
passing the obstacle, the differential locks must be disengaged again
immediately.
When driving over hill summits or ramps, the same rules apply as
for "driving over hill summits" on the road. For this, be sure to ob-
serve the specifications in 5.8 Driving over Hill Summits,
Page 104.

114 82201 2014-11-19

5 Driving
WARNING
Risk of tilting!
Due to the tyres being under heavy load, the spring
movements of the flanks lead to the configured crane
swinging.
You must therefore drive with utmost care.
Drive at walking speed only - maximum 2 km/h (1.2
mph).
Pay attention to the specified suspension pressure
limits.
3. Release the parking brake and press the accelerator pedal down
slowly.
The crane starts driving.
5.13 Driving in the United Kingdom (UK Approval)
Driving on public roads with axle loads over 12 t (26.4 kip) is not
permitted in the where the STVZO road traffic licensing regulations
and/or EC directives are in effect.
In the United Kingdom, driving on public roads with axle loads over
12 t (26.4 kip) over 12 t (26.4 kip) is only allowed with the relevant
permit. Among other things, the vehicle is issued special signs which
indicate the relation between the permitted axle load and the permit-
ted maximum speed.
Therefore, the following instructions are valid for crane vehicles with a
"STGO permit" in the United Kingdom (UK).
5.13.1 Driving with Axle Loads over 12 t (26.4 kip)
DANGER
Concerning this, the summarised instructions, warn-
ings and specifications at 5.3.6 Shorter mainte-
nance intervals for axle loads above 12.5 t (27.6 kip),
Page 98 must be strictly observed.
82201 2014-11-19 115

5 Driving
WARNING
Risk of accidents!
Driving with axle loads of more than 12 t (26.4 kip) is
always an exception and is only permitted for short
stretches. Drive extremely carefully and reduce your
maximum driving speed. The correlation between the
axle loads which are determined from the load and
the maximum speed permitted as a result of this load
on the component parts is to be observed.
WARNING
Risk of accidents!
The correlation between the axle on the vehicle bear-
ing the greatest load and the maximum speed permit-
ted is presented in tables in at 5.3 Tyres, axle loads
and permitted driving speed, Page 81. It is imperative
that the permitted maximum speeds for individual
axle loads listed in this table is complied with. If these
limit values are not observed, then premature compo-
nent failures could occur and severe accidents could
result.
All chassis parts / components are designed and authorised for axle
loads of 12 t (26.4 kip). Axle loads of 12.5 t (27.6 kip) mean that the
approved crane condition has already been exceeded.
Axle loads over 12 t (26.4 kip) mean:
- Increased stress.
- Overloading the tyres (when the permitted maximum speed for the
respective axle loads is not adhered to).
- Extended braking distances and risk of fading.
Increased stress
Axle loads of more than 12 t (26.4 kip) lead to increased loads on the
steering, axle suspension, axles, wheel hubs, bearings, suspension
system, suspension cylinders, brakes, wheels and tyres. This greatly
reduces the service life and durability of the parts affected. Wear on
brake linings is particularly increased. There is a risk of overheating
(fading).
116 82201 2014-11-19

5 Driving
Loading / overloading of tyres

Abrupt stress (for example, driving against kerbs), bead damage or
cutting damage must be avoided under these more difficult working
conditions. Damage to a tyre can result from the combination of over-
loading and / or excessive speed. Damage following a handling error
might not be immediately apparent. These add up over time and can
result in damage at a later time; for example, after a more relatively
minor incident.
DANGER
Risk of accident caused by tyre damage!
Increased risk of accident caused by damaged tyres!
DANGER
injury may result!
The permitted axle loads listed in the tables under
5.3.1 Tyres, Page 82 must be adhered to.
Extended braking distances and risk of fading

The brake system of this crane is designed for axle loads of 12 t
(26.4 kip) in accordance with EC guidelines.
DANGER
Extended braking distances can result in serious in-
jury and damage to equipment!
Higher axle loads (due to fading) lead to extended stop-
ping distances!
Drive carefully in accordance with the conditions.
Avoid frequent acceleration and braking.
82201 2014-11-19 117

5 Driving
5.13.2 Driving with Axle Loads up to 12.5 t (27.6 kip)
DANGER
injury may result!
Possible driving speeds are permitted only within existing tyre limit
values; i.e. the maximum possible speed must not be driven if the
tyres are not approved for that speed (for certain axle loads).
5.13.3 Driving with Axle Loads up to 16.5 t (36.4 kip)
This technically possible driving configuration does not meet the

regulations of the German road traffic licensing regulations nor
EEC/ECE directives.
Therefore driving in this region is only permitted on private roads
and grounds. These must have a sufficient load-bearing capacity
and must be sufficiently level (e.g. no potholes).
If the crane is to be driven with axle loads over 12.5 t (27.6 kip), the
following points must be observed:
- Short stretches only!
- Use only tyres which have been released by the tyre manufacturer
in accordance with STGO regulations.
- The crane must not be steered on the spot or when on very un-
even ground.
- During the trip, follow the information shown on the driver informa-
tion display in the "Suspension" menu point.
- The pressures of the suspension circuit should be even and must
not exceed 260 bar (3771 psi).
- Calculate the maximum permitted speed based on the current axle
load and observe this maximum while the crane is driven (see
5.3.1 Tyres, Page 82).
- Driving on the road with these kinds of axle loads is permitted only
in the UK. The vehicle must be licensed in the respective category
in accordance with STGO and the permitted speed with respect to
the axle load must be observed.
- Before driving on public roads, the driver must familiarise himself
fully with the changed driving/braking behaviour of the crane (for
example, longer stopping distances).
- Shorten the maintenance interval; carry out inspections more of-
ten.
118 82201 2014-11-19

5 Driving
DANGER
To do this, strictly observe the specifications, warn-
ings and requirements summarised at 5.3.6 Shorter
maintenance intervals for axle loads above 12.5 t
(27.6 kip), Page 98.
The crane manufacturer shall not be held liable for damage resulting
from premature wear when driving with axle loads above 12.5 t
(27.6 kip).
To all intents and purposes, the crane operator and crane driver car-
ry the sole responsibility if the crane is driven with axle loads >12.5
t (27.6 kip).
5.13.4 Application of the "Special Type General Order"
Figure 50: STGO, category B Figure 51: STGO, category C
If – on the basis of the special national regulation "Special Type Gen-

eral Order" (STGO) in the United Kingdom (UK) – axle loads of more
than 12 t (26.4 kip) are permitted on public roads, this is documented
on a special information sign. The sign is fitted on the outside of the
driver's cab near the door lock.
This regulation is divided into 2 categories:
- Category B for axle loads of up to 12.5 t (27.5 kip)
- Category C for axle loads of up to 16.5 t (36.4 kip)
The determining factor for whether category B or C applies is the

axle that is carrying the heaviest load.
Use of the "Special Type General Order" (STGO) requires the follow-
ing conditions:
- The axle loads in accordance with "STGO" apply only on roads in
the United Kingdom (UK).
82201 2014-11-19 119

5 Driving
- The crane operator/driver is responsible for ensuring that axle

loads remain within the prescribed limits and are distributed evenly
(European law). They also carry sole responsibility when the crane
is driven on public roads with an axle load of more than 12.5 t
(27.6 kip).
- The necessary safety clearance to other vehicles must be ob-
served, in particular with axle loads above 12.5 t (27.6 kip), as the
(national) regulation "STGO" assumes reduced braking effects and
longer braking distances.
- Axle loads of more than 12.5 t (27.5 kip) cause considerably in-
creased wear on the steering, axle suspension, axles, wheel hubs,
bearings, suspension, suspension cylinders, brakes and tyres.
- Possible driving speeds are only permitted within the framework of
the maximum permitted limit values; e.g., the possible maximum
speed may not be utilised during motorisation. A tyre-dependent
maximum allowable speed applies in particular. The maximum per-
mitted speed (depending on axle load and tyres) can be found in a
table at 5.3 Tyres, axle loads and permitted driving speed,
Page 81.
The values stated on the plate are maximum values according to

"STGO". Depending on the tyres used it is possible that reduced val-
ues must be observed. For that reason, the specifications contained
in the table at 5.3 Tyres, axle loads and permitted driving speed,
Page 81 absolutely must be observed.
DANGER
RISK OF ACCIDENTS due to overloading of tyres!

5.14.1 Coupling and Decoupling a Dolly
WARNING
Sole responsibility of the crane operator
The coupling and uncoupling, operation and mainte-
nance of a dolly is exclusively the sole responsibility of
the crane operator.
The crane operator is responsible for careful perform-
ance of the coupling and uncoupling sequence, oper-
ation and maintenance in accordance with national
regulations.
The instructions of the manufacturer must be fol-
lowed!
The dolly must be attached to the crane in such a way that no dan-
gers arise.
For instance, the axles of the dolly must be evenly laden, in order to
achieve an optimum braking effect.

5.14.1.1 Sequence for coupling
DANGER
Risk of crushing between the crane and the dolly!
The area between the crane and the dolly cannot be
seen during the steps during which the crane is moved.
Do not step between the vehicles during coupling!
It may be advisable to assign someone the job of
monitoring that area.
1. Secure dolly with parking brake actuated and wheel chocks in

place.
Automatic braking by disconnecting the brake line is not sufficient!
2. For dollys with rotating towbars: Release front axle brake (if
present).
DANGER
Risk of accidents when releasing the front axle
brake!
When the front axle brake is released, the towing fork
can strike to the side if the wheels are not on a smooth,
level surface.
Securely place the dolly before releasing the front
axle brake on an even surface.
3. Drive the crane up to approx. 1 m (3 ft) to the coupling ring, then

set the coupling ring to coupling height using the height adjust-
ment device.
4. Open the coupling (5) on the crane.
5. Step out of the area at risk between the crane and the dolly!
6. Couple by carefully moving the crane back.
DANGER
Risk of crushing due to the dolly moving forward!
Allowing the trailer to roll forward to couple can cause se-
rious injury and property damage.
Do not allow the dolly to roll forward!

6 Drive Gearbox / Distributor Gear
6.1 General
The drive gearbox – a semi-automated transmission ZF AS-TRONIC
(12 forward gears, 2 reverse gears) – is flanged together with the
drive motor via a dry clutch.
There is no longer any clutch activation by the driver due to the clutch
control. The actual gear switching is done by the electronic transmis-
sion system.
A non-wearing hydrodynamic auxiliary brake is integrated in the
transmission.
Any necessary transmission information is displayed in the driver in-
formation system screen, e.g. neutral, gear.
6.2 System Design
Figure 59: Transmission system
1 Driving switch 2 Transmission

2.3 E-module
The transmission system consists of the transmission and compo-

nents which are required for automation of the system. The compo-
nents 'transmission actuator' and 'clutch actuator' are integrated in the
transmission. In addition, the peripheral components 'driving switch'
and 'e-module' are installed in the driver's cab.
The transmission is equipped with a power take off. The hydraulic
pumps of the superstructure are driven with the power take off (see
6.8 Power take off, Page 145).

6.6 Driving and Shifting Gears
CAUTION
Risk of accidents if the air pressure is too low!
If you shift when the air pressure is too low, the transmis-
sion can remain in neutral, with the result that there is no
through drive and no engine braking effect.
Ensure sufficient air pressure of at least 6.2 bar.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the drive gearbox!
The driver must avoid overrevving the engine by shifting gears
at the right time.
Slow driving - which puts a strain on the coupling - must be pre-
vented, possibly by driving or starting in a lower gear than the
automatically engaged drive-off gear.
82201 2014-11-19 137

NOTICE
If the vehicle is at a standstill in operating mode "Automatic", the
decoupler is open, load is placed on the thrust bearing.
Select the "Neutral" operating mode if the vehicle is at a stand-
still for a longer period of time to relieve the thrust bearing.
It is not possible to switch gears when the engine is at standstill.
6.6.2 Starting off

Starting position:
- Parking brake applied
- Engine running
- Drive gearbox in "Neutral" operating mode
NOTICE
Risk of overloading the coupling and risk of damage to the
coupling!

crane vehicle!
If the vehicle is rolling, there is no shift into the reverse
gear;
stop the vehicle immediately.
Engage reverse gear:

1. Stop the crane vehicle, wait for it to stand still.
2. Turn the rotary switch to "R".
"R" appears in the driver information system screen.
3. Actuate the accelerator pedal and release the brake at the same
time.
The crane vehicle drives in reverse.
As soon as the rotary switch is turned to position "R", the reverse

motion warning signal sounds.
82201 2014-11-19 139

6.6.5 Manoeuvring
For sensitive slow driving, e.g. coupling/decoupling a dolly, manoeu-
vring operation is designated in the first forward gear and in the first
reverse gear (distance < 1 m / 3.3 ft). In this case, the transmission
remains in this gear, it does not upshift.
Manoeuvring operation cannot be selected in other gears. If another
gear is selected despite this, the gear changing procedure is not exe-
cuted.
During manoeuvring operation, the distributor gear must always be
switched in off-road gear due to the more favourable transmission ra-
tio. This prevents damage to the clutch.

if there is a risk of the coupling overloading.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the coupling!
The coupling can be overloaded due to heat development and in-
creased clutch wear.

slowly.
The vehicle starts up.
6.6.6 Rolling on inclines

Prerequisites:
- Engine running
- Drive gearbox in neutral position.
- Brake pedal actuated
DANGER
Risk of accidents due to missing engine brake effect!
When the crane vehicle is rolling without an engaged
gear - rotary switch is on "N" - there is no engine braking
effect.
Do not let the crane roll in "N".
NOTICE
Do not let the crane roll against the forward direction of the en-
gaged gear.
1. Release the brake pedal.

Crane is rolling.
2. Switch the rotary switch to "D".

The system selects a gear adapted to the driving speed. This
closes the drive train.
6.6.7 Changing the operating mode: Manual / Automatic

It is possible to change the operating mode at any time, even while
driving.
Changing the operating mode from automatic to manual:
- Push switch lever to the left.
Changing the operating mode from manual to automatic:
- Push gear shift lever to the left or
- in direction "+" or "-".
82201 2014-11-19 141

6.6.8 Changing Gears
6.6.8.1 Changing gears in the "Automatic" operating mode

All upshifting and downshifting is done automatically.
Shifts are dependent on:
- Crane weight
- Speed
- Engine speed
- Accelerator pedal
The gear display is shown as digits in the driver information system

screen.
6.6.8.2 Changing gears in the "Manual" operating mode
- You can shift from any gear to "Neutral" using the rotary switch.
This gear switch has priority.
- The position of the accelerator pedal does not have to be
changed during switching operation as the engine is controlled
electronically.
- A gear switch command is not executed when the max. permissi-
ble engine speed was exceeded by the gearshift mechanism.
WARNING
It is also possible to shift to "Neutral" while driving. If you
shift to "Neutral", the drive train is interrupted. In this
case, the engine braking effect no longer exists.
Do not shift to "Neutral" without first actuating a corre-
sponding vehicle brake.
142 82201 2014-11-19

Press the switch lever in the "+" or "-" direction.

- "+" Shift up by one gear step
- "++" Shift up by two gear steps
- "-" Shift down by one gear step
- "- -" Shift down by two gear steps
When gears are shifted manually, the shifting system quits the "Auto-
matic" operating mode.
If the switch lever is pushed to the left, the "Automatic" operating
mode is activated again.
6.6.9 Changing the direction of travel

Prerequisites:
- Vehicle stationary:
- Parking brake applied or brake pedal actuated
WARNING
The direction of travel may only be changed by
changing the rotary switch position from "R" or "RM"
to "D" or "DM" and vice versa when the vehicle is at a
standstill, otherwise the transmission shifts to "Neu-
tral". In this case, the engine braking effect no longer
exists.
Reverse driving "R" to forwards driving "D" and vice versa

- Turn rotary switch from "R" or "RM" to "D" or "DM".
6.6.10 Stop the crane.

1. If the accelerator pedal is not actuated, decelerate the vehicle with
the service brake to the point of standstill.
The coupling opens automatically before the vehicle comes to
a standstill, so that "stalling" the engine is prevented.
2. Switch the transmission in the neutral position for longer standstill

times.
82201 2014-11-19 143

6.6.11 Clutch Protection

Despite the automated clutch, the driver has great influence on the
service life of the coupling. To cut down on wear, we recommend al-
ways selecting the lowest possible gear when driving off (see 6.6.2
Starting off, Page 138).
To protect the mechanical components of clutch control, the transmis-

sion must be switched to "Neutral" for longer stops (more than 1 to 2
minutes, e. g. traffic, train crossing). In doing so, the clutch is engag-
ed and the clutch controller is released.
If the coupling is at risk of overloading, e. g. due to several short con-

secutive drive-off procedures or driving at crawling speeds with grind-
ing coupling, the depicted indicator light appears in the driver informa-
tion system screen.
WARNING
Risk of accidents due to the crane vehicle rolling
away accidentally!
If the indicator light is ignored, the coupling closes when
the accelerator pedal is actuated. This can lead to the
engine "stalling", in which case the vehicle may roll back
if on an incline.
When the indicator light is illuminated:
Release the accelerator pedal
Let the coupling cool down
Select an operating condition at which there is no overloading of the

coupling, for example:
- when accelerating (to apply the clutch)
- stopping
- when driving off at a low gear
- when driving at speeds below the walking speed: switch distribu-
tor gear to terrain driving.
144 82201 2014-11-19

6.7 Roller dynamometer
WARNING
Risk of accidents on the roller dynamometer!
When rolling, the system recognises the function "Driving
vehicle". The coupling closes if a gear is engaged.
The transmission must always be switched to the
neutral position on the roller dynamometer.
Switch the rotary switch to "N" after driving onto a roller dynamometer
(brake test stand).
When rolling, it is not possible to shift into reverse gear.
6.8 Power take off

The hydraulic pumps of the superstructure are driven with power take
off.
The power take off is activated after starting the engine from the su-
perstructure cab and release has been given. The depicted indicator
light appears in the driver information system screen. No gears can
be actuated when power take off is in operation. Transmission is in
neutral.
6.9 Error display

The drive gearbox has a self-diagnosis system. If the system detects
faults/errors, this is displayed to the driver in the driver information
system screen.
The faults are divided into fault classes 1 to 3 and entered into the
fault memory of the drive gearbox after the ignition has been switched
off. Up to ten different faults can be stored. If the fault memory is full,
a non-active fault will be overwritten.

action brake is switched on, the "Sustained-action brake" indicator
light is illuminated. Depending on the position of the combination
switch, the brake effect is increased steadily from the first to the last
stage.
Use the sustained-action brake particularly during downhill driving.
The sustained-action brake should also be used where possible for
braking in normal driving conditions. The effect of the sustained-ac-
tion brake depends on the engine speed. The higher the speed, the
more improved the braking effect.
8.5.1 Exhaust Brake

The exhaust brake consists of a combination of exhaust brake and
constant throttle. The constant throttle valve is closed during normal
operation. When the exhaust brake is activated, it opens constantly
and increases the braking effect by reduced compression.
The exhaust brake is effective only for engine speeds of over 900
rpm. If the engine speed falls below 900 min-1 (rpm), the exhaust
brake is switched off and reactivated when the speed increases. The
exhaust brake is also switched off if the engine speed is above 2300
rpm.
8.5.2 Hydraulic Retarder

The retarder is a hydrodynamic brake which is integrated in the trans-
mission and is non-wearing. Depending on the engine speed, the re-
tarder is activated with a short time delay.
82201 2014-11-19 153

8 Braking System
The retarder oil temperature is monitored using the indicator light

"Retarder oil temperature too high".
NOTICE
Retarder overheating!
Use of the hydraulic retarder is connected with heat development.
The retarder can overheat.
If the indicator light "Retarder oil temperature too high" is illumi-
nated:
- decrease the reducer's braking effect
- select a low gear
DANGER
Risk of accidents!
If the retarder output is not regulated by the driver, the
system automatically reduces the braking effect until the
permissible temperature has been reached (again). The
speed cannot be maintained. Crane accelerates.
Adjust your driving style to the road conditions.

CAUTION
Risk of skidding on a slippery road surface!
Activating the sustained-action brake could cause the
wheels to lock on a slippery road surface.
Do not activate the sustained-action brake on a slip-
pery road surface.
1. Move the lever in position 1.

The indicator light is illuminated. The exhaust brake is active.

8.6 Sustained-action brake - cruise control

Using the sustained-action brake cruise control, a set speed can be
held consistently within the existing braking capacity during a downhill
journey. The sustained-action brake cruise control can only be activa-
ted if the sustained-action brake is activated.
The speed can be set in every lever position. The set speed is saved
by the electronics system. If the current speed is lower than the set
speed, the sustained-action brake does not function. Once the speed
reaches the saved level again, the sustained-action brake is reactiva-
ted. If speed is increased while the sustained-action brake cruise con-
trol is activated, the vehicle returns to the saved speed after the driv-
ing pedal has been released.
A saved speed is automatically deleted if the ignition is switched off.
8.6.1 Activating the sustained-action brake cruise control

1. Drive the crane at the desired speed.
2. Switch on the sustained-action brake (see 8.5.3 Switch on sus-
tained-action brake, Page 155).
3. Press the lever in position 1 or 2.

The indicator lights are illuminated. The speed is saved.
If the speed is to be decreased below the set speed, the sustained-

action brake cruise control must first be switched off. Then decrease
the speed and activate the sustained-action brake cruise control
again.

8 Braking System
8.6.2 Switching off the sustained-action brake cruise control

The indicator lights go out. The sustained-action brake cruise
control is switched off.
8.7 Anti-blocking system
The anti-blocking system (ABS) stops the wheels from locking when
the vehicle starts driving at walking speed - independent of the sur-
face of the road. It prevents the crane and possibly the dolly from
locking if this has been accordingly equipped.
The ABS always functions, but can be switched off by the driver with
a button. Faults are indicated by the ABS indicator light and the corre-
sponding fault message in the driver information system.
CAUTION
Risk of accidents due to an ABS malfunction!
The ABS is malfunctioning if the ABS indicator light is il-
luminated. The wheels can lock during braking. This im-
pairs steerability and braking behaviour.
Continue driving with great care. Have the fault recti-
fied immediately in a qualified specialist workshop.
8.7.1 Switching the anti-blocking system off/on
NOTICE
The anti-blocking system may not be switched off in public
road traffic.
If ABS is switched off, the wheels could lock during braking. This
means the vehicle is no longer steerable. There is increased risk of
collisions and/or accidents!
Always leave the ABS switched on when on roads and on firm
ground.
82201 2014-11-19 157

8 Braking System
The stopping distance can be decreased by switching off the ABS on

off-road terrain and unpaved roads (e.g. soft or extremely uneven
ground).

2. Press the button again.

The indicator light goes out. ABS is switched back on.
If you start the engine again, ABS is automatically switched on

again.

9 Steering
9 Steering
9.1 General
The crane chassis steering consists of a hydraulic dual-circuit steer-
ing.
The direction of travel is mainly determined by the rigidly connected
front axles. The rear axles are steered as well, electric-hydraulically
and in relation to speed.
A computer monitors control of the rear axle steering. Fault codes can
be read out there in case of a fault.
The oil supply of the hydraulic components consists of two engine-de-
pendent driven steering pumps and a driving-dependent driven emer-
gency steering pump. During driving the emergency steering pump
which is driven by the rolling crane vehicle controls the delivery rate
back from main pump 2, or stops its operation, as soon as the deliv-
ery rate is sufficient for feeding steering circuit 2.
If a steering circuit fails - or in case of engine failure - during driving,
the crane vehicle can still be steered until it comes to a standstill. It
does require increased effort, however, to move the steering wheel
and the steering reacts slower.
9.2 Self-test of the Steering
DANGER
Risk of crushing in the area of the wheels!
The wheels can move independently during a steering
self test.
There must be no-one in the vicinity of the wheels.
The self-test of the steering is a test carried out after starting the en-
gine. During this test the steering computer checks if the basic steer-
ing components are functioning. The test phase is indicated by the
"CHECK" indicator light.
9.3 Error display

The rear-axle steering has a self-diagnosis system. When the system
detects faults, this is indicated to the driver in the "Driver information"
screen by the indicator light and additionally signalled by the warning
buzzer. At the same time, but not visible to the driver during driving,
all faults are displayed on the steering computer screen. An active
fault is automatically saved in the fault memory.
82201 2014-11-19 159

9 Steering
9.3.1 Fault display in the driver information system

The faults are divided into fault categories. The fault category deter-
mines the reaction of the steering to the fault and the subsequent ef-
fect on steering operation. The fault category is displayed in the driver
information system by a combination of indicator lights and warning
buzzers.
WARNING
Risk of accidents due to a defective steering system!
The steering system's operating safety is no longer en-
sured if a warning is displayed in the driver information
system.

Active faults are displayed one after the other with a corresponding
fault code. If several faults exist at the same time, the display auto-
matically switches to the next fault after 2.5 seconds. If all faults have
been rectified, the display changes back to the fault-free state
("READY" and ">"-symbol).

9.4 Steering Programs
9.4.1 General
The following steering programs are available:

- Narrow cornering, see 9.4.2 Steering program "Narrow corner-
ing", Page 163
- Diagonal steering, see 9.4.3 Steering program "Diagonal steer-
ing", Page 164
- Driving away from the wall, see 9.4.4 Steering program "Driving
away from the wall", Page 166
- Manual rear-axle steering, see 9.4.5 Steering program "Manual
rear-axle steering", Page 168
The steering programs are switched on by actuating the buttons in
the multifunction unit. If the button of the active steering program is
pressed again the steering program is switched off again.
Each selected steering program is assigned to a certain display. The
display is shown as an indicator light in the "Driver information"
screen. A white indicator light shows a selected steering program; a
yellow indicator light shows the steering program that is currently ac-
tive. A steering program can only be selected at speeds below 20
km/h (12 mph). A selected steering program only becomes active
when the axles are synchronised and the speed is reduced to below 5
km/h (3 mph). If the preselected steering program is not active within
20 seconds, it automatically switches back to the previously active
operating mode.
If the steering program is active, only a driving speed of up to 20 km/h
(12 mph) can be achieved (speed lock). The ground conditions must
be suitable for driving, i.e. flat and even ground, no bumps, dips or
obstacles. The ground must be able to support the weight of each
axle load and the total weight of the crane.

9.4.2 Steering program "Narrow cornering"

If a small turning radius is required (e.g. during turning, manoeuvring),
the steering program "Narrow cornering" can be selected. In the
steering program "Narrow cornering", the 4th axle turns inward as
soon as a steering angle of > 85% is achieved at axle 1. This ach-
ieves a smaller turning radius - albeit with increased tyre wear.

10 Differential Locks
10.1 General
NOTICE
Risk of damage when driving with locked differentials!
When the differentials are locked there is a risk of parts of the drive
being overloaded. For this reason, you must always take special
care.
Observe the points listed below when differentials are locked:
- Only drive at walking speeds.
- Only drive for short stretches.
- Only drive straight ahead.
- Only switch differential locks on and off when the crane is at
a standstill.
- Only activate differential locks on loose ground and with the
wheels spinning.
- Do not activate differential locks with a steering program ac-
tive.
The following differentials (drive assemblies) are fitted to distribute

the drive torque to the driven wheels and to adapt the wheel speeds
when driving along curves:
- Longitudinal Differential in Distributor Gear
- Transverse differential in each drive axle
The longitudinal differentials and the transverse differentials can be
locked. In the locked condition, a rigid connection is made between
the two outputs of the differentials.

A level indicator is assigned to each suspension circuit which consists

of a fixed vertical bar (1) and a "piston" (2) which moves up and down
as the level goes up or down.
82201 2014-11-19 179

NOTICE
Fault in the level indicator!
Risk of accidents!
Carry out the level check on level, even ground with the wheels
in the straight-ahead position.
Reset deviating suspension circuits.
If constant deviations occur, the suspension must be checked
by our customer service.
For road travel level the bar is coloured green and the "piston" is in
the centre (in accordance with the road travel position of the suspen-
sion cylinders).
In all intermediate positions outside of the road travel level, the bar
is coloured grey and the "piston" moves all the way up or down.
If the bar is red, the incoming signal of the suspension circuit is im-
plausible, there is a fault.

11.5 Monitoring the Pressure
WARNING
Rapid decline in the suspension pressure and/or no-
ticeable level change.
Difficult handling of the crane resulting in accidents.
Stop the crane and determine the cause of the fault.
The suspension circuits' pressures are checked in the "Driver infor-

mation" screen in the driver's cab. The current suspension pressures
are displayed there under the menu point "Suspension".

cuit 1 (front, left) cuit 2 (front, right)
3 Pressure display - suspension cir- 4 Pressure display - suspension cir-
cuit 3 (rear, left) cuit 4 (rear, right)
The desired value of the suspension pressure can only be deter-

mined precisely after the suspension cylinders have been levelled.
With a 12 t (26.5 kip) axle load, the suspension pressure is approx.
105 bar / 1523 psi (median value) and can be different for each sus-
pension circuit.
If the suspension system is switched to "road travel", the suspension
pressure can fall on one side and rise on the other side of the vehi-
cle when driving around corners.
82201 2014-11-19 181

11.6 Setting the Level
11.6.1 General
When driving the crane in the transport position (construction site or
road travel), the suspension must be at road travel level (all suspen-
sion cylinders in the road travel position).
Only in this condition can it be guaranteed that there is sufficient sus-
pension travel available for driving operation. At road travel level, the
suspension travel is +110 mm (4.3 in) upward / -110 mm (4.3 in)
downward.

11.6.2 "Automatic" road travel level setting

The road travel level is automatically set using the "AUTO" button.
The road travel level is the condition for normal driving operation. All
suspension cylinders are located in the road travel position. The indi-
vidual suspension travel movements are +110 mm (4.3 in) / -110 mm
(4.3 in).
Prerequisites:
- Level and even road surface (no potholes, no lateral gradient).
Starting position:
- Park the crane on level and horizontal ground.
- Crane in the transport position.
- the parking brake is applied.
- Transmission in the neutral position.
Steps for automatic levelling:
1. Press and hold the "AUTO" button.
Suspension cylinders extend or retract.
The bars in the "Suspension" display are illuminated in green

as soon as the road travel level has been reached.
The procedure stops automatically.
2. Release the "AUTO" button.
82201 2014-11-19 183

11.6.3 Manual level setting

Using manual setting of the level, the individual suspension circuits
can be set independently of each other. Any level can be set within
the entire range of the suspension travel (between 0 and 260 mm / 0
and 10.2 in).
Starting position:
- Park the crane on even, level ground.

sion cylinders retract, the vehicle is lowered.
11.6.3.1 Setting the Suspension Circuits

The suspension circuits can be reset using the "Raise / lower" func-
tion of the dual buttons. To level the crane quickly and/or evenly, dif-
ferent - or all - circuits must be filled or emptied at the same time.
It is not possible to set circuits in different directions (filling one circuit
while emptying another) at the same time.

11.7 Lock Suspension
NOTICE
If the crane chassis is driven with the suspension blocked/
locked, it will result in serious damage to the crane chassis
even at speeds > 5 km/h (3 mph).
The hydraulic suspension may not be blocked/locked during
driving.
The hydraulic suspension system must be locked for driving in the

configured condition (see 5 Driving, Page 79).
Lock suspension

The display is illuminated and is yellow with a red background.
Suspension is locked.
Unlock suspension
3. Press the switch again.

The display goes out and has a grey background.
Suspension is unlocked.
4. Set the road travel level (see 11.6.2 "Automatic" road travel lev-
el setting, Page 183).
186 82201 2014-11-19

11.8 Height Adjustment

The level of the suspension circuits can – in the context of the sus-
pension travel – be adjusted up or down. This can be helpful, for ex-
ample
- if the height clearance is too low;
- if more ground space is required;
- if the crane is stuck in terrain;
- before retracting the outriggers.
Starting position:
- Park the crane on even, level ground.
NOTICE
There is a risk of damage for the crane chassis if you continu-
ously drive with the height setting changed.
Drive very carefully.
Set the road travel level immediately after the obstacle (see
11.6 Setting the Level, Page 182).
When adjusting the height, always leave some clearance to the final
upper and lower position so that there is a degree of suspension
play remaining. In this state the suspension is only effective in a limi-
ted capacity.
11.9 Raising Axles
Raising all axles when setting on outriggers, see 12 Outriggers,

12.1 General Information, Specifications and Warning Information on Outriggers
12.1.1 Term Definition / Component Parts

In order to raise loads with the crane, it must be supported on outrig-
gers.
The capacity tables list the support length and support width at which
the crane must be supported on outriggers.
Support length
For this crane type, this support length (1) is a constant value:
Figure 71: View support length
(1) 8.86 m (29.1 ft)
Outrigger widths (on struts)

The following support variants exist for the support width:
Figure 72: View, support widths
(2) 2.75 m (9.0 ft) (3) 4.10 m (13.5 ft)

(4) 5.54 m (18.2 ft) (5) 7.0 m (23.0 ft)
(6) 8.40 m (27.6 ft)
For details about the possible support variants, see 12.5 Support
Variants, Page 245.

12.1.2 Basic Procedure / Instructions on Risks

Driving the crane
When driving the crane, the outrigger component parts must be in the
transport position. See: 12.4.2 Transport Position of the Outriggers
for Driving, Page 243.
WARNING
It can result in death or serious injuries if the outrig-
gers are extended unchecked during driving (e.g.
cornering).
Before starting a journey / driving, check that the out-
riggers are in the transport position.
192 82201 2014-11-19

12 Outriggers
Support point / crane site

When the crane is supported on outriggers, forces are transferred to
the ground via the struts. For this reason, there are special prerequi-
sites with regard to the load-bearing capacity, gradient and evenness
of the ground.
Load-bearing capacity of the ground / safety clearance to slopes
and ditches
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if the ground
does not have sufficient load-bearing capacity and
the crane consequently overturns.
Ensure the load-bearing capacity of the ground is suf-
ficient. If required, the load-bearing capacity of the
ground must be examined using suitable examination
methods.
The following loads occur:
Outrigger max. support Support plate di-

Surface pressure
strut force ameter
95 t 242 N/cm2
front
(209.4 kip) (351 lbs/in2)
ø 700 mm (27.6 in)
105 t 268 N/cm2
rear
(231.4 kip) (388 lbs/in2)
If the load-bearing capacity of the ground is insufficient, the support

force must be distributed onto a larger ground surface ("mats"). See
12.1.3.1 Support Plate Supports, Page 197 and 12.1.3.2 Permitted
Ground Pressure, Page 197.
Park the crane vehicle at a sufficient safety distance to slopes or
ditches.
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if the crane
is assembled too close to slopes or ditches and con-
sequently overturns.
Maintain sufficient safety clearance to slopes and
ditches.
For information on the load-bearing capacity of the ground and safety

distances to slopes and ditches, see 12.1.3 Load-carrying Capacity
of the Ground, Page 197.
82201 2014-11-19 193

12 Outriggers
Tilt
The ground may only be tilted by a maximum of 5° (9%).
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if crane com-
ponents are overloaded and the crane consequently
overturns.
Ensure the maximum ground gradient is adhered to.
Evenness / foreign matter

The ground must be sufficiently level so that the support plates are
fully on the ground. There must be no foreign material (e.g. stones,
metal objects etc.) under the outrigger plates.
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if the support
plates are overloaded and are therefore destroyed or
are permanently deformed. The crane could conse-
quently overturn.
Ensure that the support plates are positioned on level
ground with no obstacles or foreign matter.
Supporting the Crane on Outriggers

Select the suitable operating mode for the planned load case (among
other things, see "Safety equipment" in the superstructure operating
instructions). Set up the support variant corresponding to this operat-
ing mode in the following.
DANGER
There is a risk of overturning if the crane is suppor-
ted on outriggers with too small a support width.
Observe the specifications in the capacity table.
WARNING
There is a risk of crushing when extending the out-
riggers.
Ensure that no persons or obstacles are in the outrig-
gers' extension area.
194 82201 2014-11-19

12 Outriggers
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if the crane
overturns due to broken support plates.
Ensure that the support plates are positioned on level
ground with no obstacles or foreign matter.
WARNING
There is a risk of crushing when setting the support
plates down on the ground.
Only extend the outrigger cylinders (vertical) which
you can directly observe.
DANGER
There is a risk of overturning during configuring or
subsequent operation if the crane is insufficiently
aligned.
Align the crane with the required accuracy.
Align the crane exactly horizontally to an accuracy of 0.1° (precision

levelling).
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if incorrect
support force values are displayed, causing incor-
rect conclusions to be drawn concerning the current
situation.
Do not extend the outrigger cylinders up to the stop.
There must still be a residual stroke of 2 to 3 cm (0.8 to 1.2 in) after

levelling.
DANGER
There is a risk of overturning if the tyres have con-
tact with the ground during crane operation.
Ensure sufficient clearance between the tyres and the
ground.
Further information on the procedure for supporting the crane on out-

riggers can be found in 12.3 Support procedure, Page 225. Further
information on how to place the outriggers in the transport condition
can be found in 12.4 Placing the Outriggers in the Transport Condi-
tion, Page 237.
82201 2014-11-19 195

12 Outriggers
Fitting the counterweight / raising loads
DANGER
There is a risk of overturning when slewing the su-
perstructure when the crane is not supported on out-
riggers.
Only slew the superstructure when the crane has
been supported on outriggers in accordance with reg-
ulations.
DANGER
It can result in death or serious injuries if an attempt
is made to level the crane by "retracting" the vertical
outrigger cylinders with the counterweight and
equipment fitted.
In this case, only level the crane by "extending" the
vertical outrigger cylinders.
DANGER
There is a risk of accidents if an attempt is made to
move the struts horizontally or vertically with a load
attached.
Do not make any changes to the outriggers after the
crane has been levelled.
196 82201 2014-11-19

12 Outriggers
12.1.3 Load-carrying Capacity of the Ground
12.1.3.1 Support Plate Supports
The capacity of the ground must be sufficient to absorb the maximum

support forces which can occur. Generally, the support plates belong-
ing to the crane do not have a sufficient surface to set the crane vehi-
cle up safely on backfilled or natural ground. If necessary, increase
the support area by stacking suitable materials under the support
plates.
DANGER
Risk of the crane vehicle falling over due to insuffi-
cient support!
Suitable materials (for example, timber beams with
the same dimensions, special plate constructions
made of wood or metal) must be used for the support.
The crane operator must make these available.
The plates must be positioned at the centre of the
supports and all supporting wood must be sufficiently
covered!
Check as well whether hollow spaces such as canals,
covered ditches or cellars are in the planned location
of the crane and in what direction they are running.
You must also take hidden dangers such as melting
ice or flooding into consideration.
12.1.3.2 Permitted Ground Pressure

The permitted loading of the ground is determined by type and condi-
tion of the ground. Notes on permitted ground pressures can be found
in, e.g. the standard DIN 1054 "Permitted loading of the construction
ground".
DANGER
Risk of tilting! Risk of accidents!
You must have the ground tested if there are any
doubts about the capacity of the ground at the site.
82201 2014-11-19 197

12 Outriggers
12.1.3.3 Safe Distance to Slopes and Pits

Park the crane vehicle at a sufficient safety distance to slopes or
ditches. The distance also depends on the type of ground.
Figure 75: Diagram - safety distances
a Safety distance b Depth of the ditch
DANGER
The distance to the edge of a slope (X) must be at
least 2 m (6.6 ft).
A general rule is:

- For loose or backfilled ground, safety distance (a) must be twice
the size of ditch depth (b). The angle of gradient (alpha) must be
<30°.
- If the ground is firm and not loose, safety distance (a) must be
equivalent to ditch depth (b). The angle of gradient (alpha) must be
<45°.
The safety distance is measured starting at the base of the ditch (C).

12.2.4.3.4 Outrigger Support Area Display / Outrigger Support Area Monitoring

At each support, there is one length measuring device to record the
extension status of the respective support. The length measuring de-
vice can, however, not record whether the required locking bolts have
been inserted. The supports must be pinned in the specified exten-
sion status (see 12.3.3 Position of the Locking and Positioning Pins
Depending on the Extension Status of the Supports, Page 237).
WARNING
Risk of accidents due to the supports being assem-
bled incorrectly!
Check the supports to see whether the locking bolts
have been mounted.
Display at the outrigger controls

The values displayed on the left outrigger controls (see arrows) indi-
cate the extension status of each support.
If a numerical value is displayed, it is a valid outrigger extension sta-

tus / outrigger support area (see 12.5 Support Variants, Page 245).
If dashes are shown, the support is not at a valid extension status /

outrigger support area. In this case, drive the support to a valid exten-
sion status / outrigger support area (see 12.5 Support Variants,
Page 245).
If three question marks are shown, there is a fault in the length meas-
uring device. In this case, check the length measuring device.

screen at the superstructure control. If the entered status does not
match the actual extension status, there will be a fault message.
There will not be a shutdown.
WARNING
Risk of overturning due to incorrect extension sta-
tus!
Before lifting a load, check whether the required/
desired extension status of the supports is present.
Note about outrigger support area monitoring for symmetrical

12.2.5.3 Retract / extend all outrigger cylinders

The crane is automatically roughly prelevelled when the movement is
carried out (deviation: approx. 0.3°).
This function is operated in the same way at both outrigger controls.
DANGER
Risk of crushing due to automatic levelling!
During the automatic levelling procedure, all support
cylinders can be moved – even those that cannot be
seen from the switch panel. It must be ensured that
no-one is in the hazardous area.
Initial situation:
- Configuration of the outriggers:
- All outrigger struts extended horizontally in the selected support
positions
- All pins for securing the outrigger struts fitted
- Outrigger cylinders extended individually until the support pres-
sure display for all outrigger cylinders indicates approx. 2 t
(4.4 kip) support force
- Engine running

Press the "All support cylinders" button ("ALL") and the direction but-
ton for extending the support cylinders together until there is sufficient
space (incl. bowing under load when a load is subsequently picked
up) between the wheels and the ground. The crane is raised and lev-
elled with a deviation of approx. 0.3°.
82201 2014-11-19 219

12 Outriggers
CAUTION
In order to protect the outrigger cylinders from over-
loading, they must not be extended up to the stop;
there must still be a residual stroke of 2 to 3 cm (0.8
to 1.2 in).
The remaining clearance is also necessary, so that
actual support pressure values can be displayed.
The system does not automatically take the remain-
ing lift into consideration.
Retract all support cylinders.
Press the "All support cylinders" button ("ALL") and direction button
for retracting the support cylinders together. The crane is lowered and

220 82201 2014-11-19

12 Outriggers
Initial situation:
- Crane supported on outriggers and roughly pre-levelled. The out-
rigger cylinders are sufficiently extended so that there is a enough
space between the ground and wheels when a load is subsequent-
ly picked up after the function "Raise all axles" (see 12.2.5.5
Raising and lowering axles, Page 222) has been carried out if re-
quired in a later work step.
- Engine running
1. Press the "All outrigger cylinders" key ("ALL") and the "Automatic
levelling" key (AUTO) together until the crane is levelled. As soon
as an even level has been achieved (tilt tolerance value: 0.1°), the
procedure is automatically finished.
During automatic levelling, the "AUTO" display flashes in the operat-

ing screen.
After the end of the procedure, the "AUTO" display remains in the
operating screen. The displayed inclination value can be changed
from 0.1 to 0.2, depending on the system. This however has no neg-
ative effect on the required precision.

The support cylinders may not be extended up to the stop so that ac-
tual support force values are displayed in the screen.
WARNING
Risk of accidents due to incorrectly displayed sup-
port force values!
The support cylinders may only be telescoped out so
much so that there is still a residual stroke of 2 to 3
cm (0.8 to 1.2 in).
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the support cylinders!
The support cylinders may only be telescoped out so much so
that there is still a residual stroke of 2 to 3 cm (0.8 to 1.2 in).
12.2.5.5 Raising and lowering axles

When the crane is on outriggers, the wheels must not touch the
ground.
If the wheels have contact with the ground after supporting on outrig-
gers, the axles must be raised. This is why the function "Raise and
lower axles" exists.
Initial situation:
- Crane supported on outriggers and levelled to a 0.1° gradient
- Engine running
Carrying out the function in the driver's cab
Raising Axles
Press the dual button at the bottom until all wheels are visibly lifted off
the ground.
Lower axles
Press dual button at the top. Top up all suspension circuits to approx.
100 bar (1450 psi) (see 11 Hydraulic Suspension, Page 177). Pres-
sure check in the "Driver information system" screen in the driver's

12.3.2 Setting the Crane on Outriggers
12.3.2.1 Procedure for Setting the Crane on Outriggers

Initial situation:
- The support variant corresponding to the planned load lift is
known / determined.
- The "Measures before supporting on outriggers" from 12.3.1
Measures before Supporting on Outriggers:, Page 225 have been
carried out.
CAUTION
There is a risk of crushing when moving the support
plates!
The support plates may only be handled using the ex-
isting grab handles to prevent fingers and hands from
being crushed.
NOTICE
Risk of accidents due to contaminated contact surfaces!
The contact surfaces between the outrigger cylinder's piston rod
and the support plate must be clean. In particular, no foreign
matter is permitted (for example: stones, sand, etc.).
Remove contamination from contact surfaces.
1. Move all support plates from the transport position and place them
in the operating position (see 12.3.2.2 Bring the support plates
into the operating position., Page 236).

DANGER
Risk of breaking, and therefore risk of the supported
crane falling over!
The optional underlay plates must be lying fully flat on
the ground.
6. If required: place optional plastic underlay plates centrally under

the subsequent support plate setting down point. These plates are
used so that it is possible for the support plates to move sideways
minimally when under load while the crane is heavily loaded at a
later point. The underlay plates are not suitable for compensating
for gaps in the ground, unevenness, etc. under the support plates.
WARNING
Risk of crushing when extending the support cylin-
ders!
The support cylinders may only be extended at the
side that is within the crane operator's view at the
switch panel.
While operating the outriggers, no corrections may be
made to the positions of the outrigger pads.
NOTICE
Risk of accidents due to foreign matter being in the area of the
outrigger pads!
When setting down the support plates in this work step, ensure
that there is no foreign matter (e.g. stones, metal objects etc.)
under the support plates.
NOTICE
In order to protect the outrigger cylinders from overloading,
they may not be extended up to the stop.
there must still be a residual stroke of 2 to 3 cm (0.8 to 1.2 in).
The remaining clearance is also necessary, so that actual support

pressure values can be displayed.

is carried out (deviation: about 0.3°).
WARNING
15. Level the chassis automatically as described in the section

12.2.5.4 Automatic Levelling, Page 220. As soon as an even level
has been achieved (tilt tolerance value: 0.1°), the procedure is au-
tomatically finished.
WARNING
It can result in death or serious injuries if incorrect
support force values are displayed, causing incor-
rect conclusions to be drawn concerning the current
situation.
Do not extend the outrigger cylinders up to the stop.
234 82201 2014-11-19

WARNING
There is a risk of overturning if the conditions on the
crane do not correspond to the static calculations.
Ensure that there is sufficient space between the
ground and the wheels so that no wheel touches the
ground when a load is picked up at a later point. In
case of doubt, the axles must be raised as described
in the next work step.
16. If required, raise the axles as described in 12.2.5.5 Raising and

WARNING
Risk of overturning when retracting and extending
the struts!
Retracting and extending the outriggers is prohibited
whilst there is a load suspended from the crane.
1. Open the outrigger controls of the first chassis side (operating sta-
tion).
This procedure description used as an example starts with the left-

hand side of the chassis.
2. Start the engine (if not already occurred) (see 12.2.5.1 Switch-
ing the Engine on and off, Page 216).
There is a risk of crushing between the tyres and the ground when
lowering the axles / retracting the outrigger cylinders.
WARNING
Risk of crushing between tyres and ground space!
Mind your feet !
It must be ensured that no-one is in the hazardous
area.
Only retract the outrigger cylinders of the struts which
are on the side of the outrigger controls (operating
station) which is currently being used and which the
crane operator can therefore see directly.
You must use a banksman in case of doubt.
3. The axles must be lowered again if the function "Raise axles" was
actuated previously to set the crane on outriggers (as described in
section 12.2.5.5 Raising and lowering axles, Page 222).
As described in the corresponding section, the axles are
pressed against the ground while this is done so that all sus-
pension circuits indicate a pressure of approx. 100 bar
(1450 psi).

13 Parking
13 Parking
13.1 Parking
Before leaving the crane, it must be parked and made completely
safe and accident-proof. The following basic instructions should be
observed.
13.2 Parking in the Transport Condition
Figure 144: Operation, driver's cab
1 Parking brake 2 Rotary switch
1. Apply the parking brake (1) of the crane chassis.

2. Switch the transmission to the neutral position "N" using rotary
switch (2).
DANGER
away accidentally!
If you must park on an incline or downhill slope, the
wheels must be additionally secured against rolling
away unexpectedly using wheel chocks.
3. Secure the crane with wheel chocks (see 13.4 Wheel Chocks,
Page 261).
The parking brake cannot hold the crane on every uphill or downhill
slope which it can drive on. The crane (on its own) may not be
parked on inclines or downhill slopes with a gradient of more than
18 %. If the crane is equipped with a dolly, the gradient may not be
more than 12 %.
4. Switch off the engine.

5. Switch off the engine-independent heating (optional).
82201 2014-11-19 259

13 Parking
6. Shut down all electrical consumers; especially the interior lighting

of cabs.
NOTICE
Risk of damage for the engine-independent heating.
Only actuate the battery isolating switch once the heater fan af-
ter-run time for cooling down the heating system has been com-
pleted.
7. For cranes with a battery isolating switch (optional) and when a

longer standstill time is expected: Disconnect the crane's electric
system from the vehicle batteries by actuating the battery isolating
switch.
8. Remove the ignition key for the superstructure and crane chassis
and lock the respective cab.
13.3 Parking in the Erected State and when Supported on Outriggers
DANGER
Risk of overturning due to the effects of winds.
Observe the permitted wind speeds (see the operat-
ing instructions of the superstructure in "Working in-
structions" under "Wind on the crane"). If required,
the main boom or equipment must be set down.
1. Set the crane load down on the ground and detach (always when
the crane operator leaves the crane operator’s cab).
2. Lock the slew gear brake (see the operating instructions of the su-
perstructure under "Slewing the superstructure").
3. Retract the telescopic sections. If required, set down the equip-
ment.
4. Switch off the engine.
5. Switch off the engine-independent heating (optional).
6. Switch off all electric consumers with the exception of the hazard
light on the main boom (if fitted and required).
Any electric consumers which are not required should be switched

off when the engine is switched off. When the operator leaves the
crane with electrical consumers switched on (e.g. hazard lights), the
electrical supply must be ensured, if necessary through additional
steps (e.g. battery charger). Further specifications on permanently
activated auxiliary consumers in the crane operator’s cab can be
found in the operating instructions of the superstructure, in "Crane
operator's cab" under "Ignition switch".

14.2.2 Towing with Engine Damage
14.2.2.1 Specifications and risks when towing with engine damage
14.2.2.1.1 Effect on the steering system

When the engine is at a standstill, the hydraulic pumps which supply
the main steering circuits 1 and 2 with hydraulic oil do not function.
Only when the vehicle is in motion does the emergency steering
pump, which is connected to the drive train (distributor gear), rotate
and supply (depending on speed) the steering circuit 3 with hydraulic
oil.
DANGER
Risk of accidents!
Remember that noticeable steering support only oc-
curs at driving speeds over 8 km/h (5 mph).
The following must be observed:

- Much greater effort is required to move the steering wheel.
264 82201 2014-11-19

- The steering times for the vehicle being towed are increased 3- to
4-fold. It is not possible to drive the same "tight bends" as with an
intact vehicle.
- In tight bends the vehicle may need to be manoeuvred in the area
of the bend.

- Steering circuits 1 and 2 are not functioning. This is indicated dur-

ing the towing procedure by red indicator lights (2) (3) in combina-
tion with "Caution" (1).
- During towing, indicator light (4) must be observed.
Depending on the system, indicator light (4) is only displayed once

driving speeds > approx. 8 km/h (5 mph) have been reached in case
of the fault "No flow-through at the emergency steering pump".
- If the emergency steering pump is not driven, there is no steering

support.

DANGER
There is a risk of accidents due to a vehicle which
cannot be steered because the actuating force nee-
ded to operate the steering wheel is too great.
The joint shafts (4) and (6) may not be removed.
82201 2014-11-19 265

14.2.2.1.2 Effect on the brake system
14.2.2.1.2.1 Minimum Air Pressure in the Brake System

If the engine is at a standstill, the compressed air system of the crane
is not supplied with compressed air. This affects the brake system
and the switching capacity of the distributor gear. The crane must
therefore be supplied with compressed air (externally) during towing
(see 14.2.2.1.2.2 Supplying the Crane with Compressed Air,
Page 266).
1 "STOP" display 2 Indicator light brake circuit 1

3 Indicator light brake circuit 2
During towing, the air pressure in the brake system must be at least
5.5 bar (80 psi). If the air pressure falls below that, indicator lights
(2) / (3) and the "STOP" display (1) are illuminated. The spring accu-
mulator brake cylinders close of their own accord if the air pressure
falls below a certain level.
DANGER
It can result in serious injuries and damage to prop-
erty if the minimum air pressure in the brake system
is not reached.
It can cause an extended stopping distance or abrupt
braking of the crane.
The crane may only be towed if the minimum air pres-
sure in the brake system is adhered to.
14.2.2.1.2.2 Supplying the Crane with Compressed Air

The crane's brake system must be supplied with compressed air by a
hose assembly from the towing vehicle.
It must be ensured that the towed crane is supplied with compressed
air with sufficient pressure (see 14.2.2.1.2.1 Minimum Air Pressure
in the Brake System, Page 266) during the towing procedure.
266 82201 2014-11-19

WARNING
The towed crane can brake abruptly if the minimum
pressure is not reached or the compressed air sup-
ply is interrupted during the towing procedure.
Before starting the actual towing procedure, check
the reliability of the compressed air supply of the tow-
ed vehicle.
To supply the crane with compressed air, each crane has a combined
external filling and tyre filling connection (M16 x 1.5) (see
14.2.2.1.2.3 Function: Combined external filling and tyre filling con-
nection (M16 x 1.5), Page 268).
The installation location of the combined external filling and tyre filling
connection (M16 x 1.5) depends on the crane type:
Explorer 5800
Figure 151: Position of the compressed air connection (Explorer 5800)
The external filling and tyre filling connection (M16 x 1.5) is on the
right side of the crane chassis under the outrigger controls (see arrow
in Fig. 151, Page 267).

14.2.2.1.2.3 Function: Combined external filling and tyre filling connection (M16 x
1.5)
Figure 153: External filling and tyre filling connection
However, the connection of the filling hose may only be screwed onto
the connection of the combined connection so that the cylindrical part
is pressed in approx. 1 mm (0.04 in) (position L: external filling).
On filling up the tyres: Screw on the filling tube so that the cylindrical
part is pressed in approx. 3 mm (0.12 in) (position R).
14.2.2.1.2.4 Towing with spring accumulator brake cylinders released (for recovery
from dangerous situations)
If the minimum air pressure in the brake system (see 14.2.2.1.2.1
Minimum Air Pressure in the Brake System, Page 266) is not
reached, the spring accumulator brake cylinders automatically close
the brakes. For recovery from dangerous situations over short distan-
ces, the crane can also be towed without compressed air supply to
the brake system. To do so, the crane's braking equipment is com-
pletely disabled.
268 82201 2014-11-19

WARNING
It can result in serious injury and damage to property
when the crane's braking equipment is disabled.
The braking equipment may only be disabled if the
crane is secured against rolling away and it has been
ensured that the towing vehicle is sufficiently dimen-
sioned for pulling away and braking.
The spring tension of the spring accumulator brake cylinders is re-

leased mechanically. To do this, the release bolts on the spring accu-
mulators brake cylinders must be unscrewed using a SW 27 wrench
until they move freely.

If the distributor gear cannot or must not be placed in the neutral po-
sition, the drive shaft (3) between drive gearbox (2) and distributor
gear (5) can be removed as an alternative. Place the distributor gear
in the road travel position.
4. Switch on the ignition.

5. Place the drive gearbox (2) in the neutral position or leave it in the
neutral position.
82201 2014-11-19 269

14.2.2.3 After towing with engine damage

After towing, place the distributor gear back in the operating position
(see 14.2.5.2.2 Placing the distributor gear back in the operating
state, Page 275).
After "Towing with released spring accumulator brake cylinders" (see
14.2.2.1.2.4 Towing with spring accumulator brake cylinders re-
leased (for recovery from dangerous situations), Page 268), the brak-
ing effect of the parking brake must be ensured again before resum-
ing crane operation.
DANGER
Risk of accidents!
To ensure the road safety of the vehicle, this work
may only be carried out by trained and qualified per-
sonnel.

14.2.3 Towing with damage to the drive gearbox

If there is damage to the drive gearbox, the crane is towed with the
engine running. The steering and brake system function for this rea-
son. If there is a fault in the engine of the crane chassis as well or if
the distributor gear is not in the neutral position during towing, the
crane must be towed in accordance with the regulations for towing
with engine damage (see 14.2.2.1 Specifications and risks when
towing with engine damage, Page 264).

14.2.4 Towing in the event of damage to the distributor gear
14.2.4.1 Specifications and risks when towing with damage to the distributor gear
If there is damage to the distributor gear, the crane is towed with the
engine running. The steering and brake system function for this rea-
son. The drive shafts which are connected with the distributor gear
must be removed. The emergency steering pump is therefore not
driven by the moving crane either. Indicator light (4) for steering cir-
cuit 3 is illuminated.

If the steering system fails as well during driving, indicator lights (2)
and/or (3) are illuminated.
Depending on the fault, steering is then not possible at all or it is se-
verely restricted.
DANGER
Risk of accidents when driving with a faulty steering
system!
In this case, indicator light (4), which controls the function of the
emergency pumps, is also illuminated in red with together with "Cau-
tion" (1) during the towing procedure, as there is no connection with
the emergency steering pump due to the missing drive shafts. The
message only appears at driving speeds > approx. 8 km/h (5 mph)

14.2.5 Neutral Position of the Distributor Gear for Towing with Damage to Engine /
Transmission
14.2.5.1 Specifications and risks when towing with engine / transmission damage
The neutral position of the distributor gear is meant to ease the driv-
er's job, so that the universal joints do not have to be removed if there
is damage to the engine / transmission.
It is only permitted to tow with the distributor gear in the neutral posi-
tion if the journey is no longer than 30 km (18 mi) and speeds do not
exceed 30 km/h (18 mph). Longer towing journeys must be avoided
(the lubricating oil pump will not work).
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
If the max. towing journey (30 km / 18 mi) and / or the max. tow-
ing speed (30 km/h / 18 mph) are not adhered to, it will always
lead to consequential damage.

14.3 Towing Free From Rough Terrain

You must take the utmost care when towing a stuck crane free (pull-
ing it out) whose wheels have "dug" themselves into the ground.
It is prohibited to pull it out using the trailer coupling on the front
frame, as it is only for towing on a firm surface.
The crane vehicle may only be towed backwards using the rear trailer
clutch or long steel ropes, fastened to the rear outrigger beams. The
crane should then be towed along the track which it has already
made.
It prohibited to pull it out jerkily or at an angle as this can cause dam-
age to the crane chassis.
If it is not possible to pull the crane out in a straight line, a deflection
point may need to be set up between the crane and the recovery ve-
hicle. Make sure that there is sufficient air in the braking system.

15.2 Cab heater arrangement
15.2.1 Cab Heater Arrangement, Engine-dependent

The driver's cab is fitted with a cab heater unit that is dependent on
the coolant temperature of the engine as standard. The higher the
coolant temperature, the greater the heating power.
Figure 165: Heating operating elements

fresh air / recirculating air
3 Rotary switch - thermostat 4 Switch - fresh air / recirculating air
If the coolant is warm, the temperature in the driver's cab can be

regulated using the rotary switch (3). In addition, a fan can be switch-
ed on using rotary switch (1) to accelerate the air exchange in the
driver's cab. You can switch to "Front window" or "Footwell" using
control knob (2). An air flap can be set to fresh air or circulating air
using switch (4).
82201 2014-11-19 277

15.2.2 Cab Heater Arrangement, Engine-independent (Optional)
15.2.2.1 General
The auxiliary heater can be operated when the vehicle engine is sta-
tionary or running. The heater assembly is a component part of the
cooling system.
The driver's cab can be heated and the coolant can be preheated be-
fore the engine start using the auxiliary heating.
If ambient temperatures are low, down to -20 °C (-4 °F), preheating
the coolant using the auxiliary heating makes it easier to start the en-
gine. If ambient temperature are low, below -20 °C (-4 °F), preheat
the engine with the auxiliary heating before starting.
15.2.2.2 Important operating / safety instructions

Operation
WARNING
Risk of fire and explosions if it is possible that there
are flammable vapours or particles in the crane's vi-
cinity!
The heater assembly may not be operated at refuel-
ling points or in the vicinity of fuel, coal dust, wood
dust, grain stores, or similar.
WARNING
Risk of poisoning when the heating is operated in en-
closed spaces.
The heater assembly may not be operated in en-
closed spaces, e.g. garage or parking garage.
NOTICE
Risk of damage!
The heater assembly's after-run time may only be stopped pre-
maturely, e.g. by activating the optional battery isolating switch,
during an emergency.
If emergency shut-down is required during operation, switch off the

heater assembly using the operating control or pull out the fuse or
disconnect the heater assembly from the battery.
278 82201 2014-11-19

Maintenance / repairs
CAUTION
Risk of burns!
Switch off the heater assembly and let all hot compo-
nents cool down before working on the heater assem-
bly or in its vicinity. Disconnect the vehicle battery!
NOTICE
Danger due to incorrect operation or handling!
Defective fuses must be replaced with the ones having the pre-
scribed rating.
Only a contractual partner authorised by the manufacturer may
repair the heater assembly. Repairs by unauthorised third par-
ties and / or using non original spare parts are dangerous and
are therefore prohibited.
The original installation condition of the heater assembly and
the corresponding components may not be changed. This is es-
pecially applicable for electric wiring, fuel supply, combustion
and flue gas evacuation.
Fuel: the heating device is connected to the fuel tank of the ve-
hicle. After a long operational break, check the fuel system for
leak tightness; rectify any leakage immediately.
When the coolant is replaced or a large amount of coolant has
been topped up, the vehicle's engine must be brought to an op-
erating temperature of approx. 80 °C / 176 °F (opening point of
the coolant thermostat) - before switching on the heater assem-
bly - so that the coolant circuit and the circuit for the engine-in-
dependent heater assembly can be bled automatically.
Only use authorised coolant when topping up the coolant circuit.
During electric welding work on the vehicle, the + pole must be
disconnected from the battery and connected to ground to pro-
tect the control unit.
82201 2014-11-19 279

Outside of heating period
NOTICE
Danger due to incorrect operation or handling!
Switch the heating device on for approximately 10 minutes ap-
proximately once a month, even outside the regular heating pe-
riods. This prevents the water pump and burner motor from seiz-
ing up.
You must carry out a test run with the heater assembly before
the heating period. If thick smoke develops, remaining for an ex-
tended period of time, or if there are unusual noises from the
burner or a definite stench of burning, the heating must be
switched off and put out of operation by removing the fuse. The
equipment should only be restarted once it has been tested by
authorised service personnel.
At the start of a new heating period, the vehicle's engine must
be brought to an operating temperature of approx. 80 °C / 176
°F (opening point of the coolant thermostat) - before switching
on the heater assembly - so that the coolant circuit and the cir-
cuit for the engine-independent heater assembly can be bled
automatically.

The engine-independent cab heater arrangement first heats the driv-

er's cab and then the drive motor during heating operation.
Heating operation and the timings of heating operation of the engine-
independent cab heater arrangement are controlled and programmed
using the radio remote control described in 15.2.2.3 Operating Con-
trol of the Heater Timer, Page 281.
The driver's cab is heated according to the fan setting selected at ro-
tary switch (1) and the temperature selected at rotary switch (2). The
fan automatically starts up after a certain coolant temperature has
been reached.
If predominantly the engine is to be preheated, the fan speed rotary
switch (1) must be set to "0".
15.3 Petrol Gas Heating, Engine-independent (Optional)
15.3.1 Important Information
WARNING
Risk of explosions!
When filling up, switch off the heater assembly.
The following is to be observed in cases of gas sys-
tem leaks and/or gas odour:
- Close the gas cylinder immediately.
- Extinguish all naked flames.
- Do not smoke.
- Switch off the auxiliary heating.
- Open windows.
- Do not actuate any electrical switches.
- Have the entire system checked by qualified per-
sonnel in a suitable workshop.
Do not expose spray cans and gas cartridges to the

flow of hot air.
282 82201 2014-11-19

WARNING
Risk of asphyxiation!
Switch the heater assembly off when in enclosed
spaces, e.g. a garage.
NOTICE
Risk of damage, risk of malfunctions!
Check before each commissioning whether the wall chimney for
exhaust gas ventilation is unblocked. The cover cap (if it exists)
on the wall flue must be removed or opened.
The wall flue cap must always be fitted or closed if the heating
system is not in operation. This is particularly important when
washing the crane.
Have the exhaust gas ventilation checked by a specialist after
each deflagration (backfire) .
During electric welding work on the crane chassis or on the su-
perstructure, the positive terminal must be disconnected from
the battery and grounded to protect the heating system control
units.
In addition, observe the operating instructions "Trumatic E 2400" from

the heating unit's manufacturer when operating and servicing the
heating system.

If the heating system is switched off following a heating phase, the

green light means that the fan is still running to use up the residual
warmth.
NOTICE
Risk of damage and overheating!
Only switch off the ignition switch of the crane engine once the
fan has come to a standstill.
2. Close the gas cylinder valve and quick-closing valve in the gas
line.

3 Switch – switch air conditioning
on / off
The air conditioning works only when the engine is running. The air
conditioning is out of operation when switch (3) is switched off. If the
air conditioning is to be operated, you must set rotary switch (1) to at
least the 1st fan setting by turning it clockwise. You can now select
the cooling temperature with rotary switch (2).
286 82201 2014-11-19

The lower the preselected temperature , the higher the cooling per-
formance of the air conditioning equipment; you must therefore set
the fan to a corresponding high setting. It is possible that the evapora-
tor has iced over if the cooling power of the air conditioning has de-
creased noticeably with the temperature and fan settings unchanged.
In this case, switch off the air conditioning equipment – with the va-
poriser fan running – for approx. 3 minutes. The ice on the vaporiser
will now thaw.
On damp, wet days, the air conditioning equipment can dehumidify
the air in the cab. With the vehicle heating the cooling effect is com-
pensated for. This then achieves a more pleasant cab climate and
prevents the windows from misting up.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the air condition compressor in the case of
longer standstill times!
Switch the air conditioning on at least once a month for several
minutes.
For maintenance of the air conditioning equipment, see "Lubrication

and maintenance instructions" in "Heating system" or "Air condition-
ing".

16.2.3 Function of the lubricant pump
16.2.3.1 General
The lubrication pump automatically supplies the connected lubrication
points with grease via the main distributor and the local subdistributor.
82201 2014-11-19 291

The control circuit board of the lubrication pump controls the preset
cycles of pause and operating times. The cycle of pause and operat-
ing times is activated when the ignition of the engine is switched on.
Pause time
The pause time determines the time period in which there is no lubri-
cation cycle.
Operating time
The operating time determines the time period in which there is a lu-
brication cycle.
A precise description of the corresponding time settings can be

found in 16.3 Setting the Interval and Operating Times, Page 293.
16.2.3.2 Safety Valve
Function of the safety valve:

- limits the build-up of pressure in the lubrication system.
- opens if there is prohibited overpressure.
If lubricant emerges at the safety valve (see arrow), this indicates a
fault in the lube arrangement.
A precise description of malfunction behaviour can be found at

16.7 Malfunctions/Elimination of Malfunctions, Page 300.
16.2.3.3 Function Test

A test run is possible for the purpose of testing the functioning of the
lubrication system. To do so:

16.3 Setting the Interval and Operating Times
16.3.1 General
The length of a lubrication cycle is dependent on the lubricant require-
ments of the lubricating points.
The pause and operating times are controlled electronically via the
control circuit board. As soon as the ignition is switched on, the inter-
val time begins. When the pause time has expired, the operating time
starts, which is the actual lubrication cycle.

16.4.1 Important information for filling the grease container
NOTICE
The container could burst.
When filling the grease container, make sure that the container
is not overfilled. Observe the level in the container when filling.
Filling the grease container with an automatic filling device:

The filling device must be monitored and switched off in good time to
prevent lubricant leaking out of safety valve (see arrow).
After complete drainage, the pump can require up to 10 minutes

running time to reach maximum delivery rate.
NOTICE
Consistency change!
The poured grease must be free of any contamination and may
not lose its consistency with time.
Observe the instructions on the prescribed lubricants in the "Lubrica-

tion and maintenance instructions".

The grease container of the lubricant pump is filled using the filling
nipple (1; Fig. 183, Page 298) on the right-hand side of the vehicle,
up to the "Max."- marking, filling quantity = 2 l (0.5 gal).
The filling takes place in an appropriate manner with a standard com-
mercial grease pump or a hand lever press. The pump must be acti-
vated during filling (by activating the additional lubrication impulse be-
forehand).

16.6 Manual Lubrication in the Case of an Emergency
Figure 185: Lubricating nipple - lube pump
If the lube pump fails, the lubricating points can also be lubricated
manually using grease. To do so, grease is fed into the system via
the depicted lubricating nipple using a grease gun.
82201 2014-11-19 299

16.7 Malfunctions/Elimination of Malfunctions
The function of the pump can be recognised from the outside by the
rotation of the agitator blade (e.g. by initiating an additional lubrica-
tion cycle) or at the LEDs of the control circuit board.

lubrication circuit of the subdistributor (X).
Note:
If there is a blockage in the progressive installation connected in ser-
ies, the lubrication lines will be under pressure. The plug-in connec-
tion parts of the lubrication lines will be almost impossible to discon-
nect in such cases. The system must be relieved of load by removing
the filling nipple from the safety valve of pump "Z".
Caution:
The installation is under pressure. Carefully loosen/remove the lubri-
cation lines and/or filling nipple.
3. Let the pump continue to run.
Remove all lubricating point lines of the subdistributor (X)

must search for the blockage in the line of the outlet (3) or
in the connected bearing.
5. Check the safety valve at pump "Z", replace if required.
Note:
In order to check the individual outlets, leave each outlet released for
a longer period of time, as there is only one piston stroke per pump
rotation. However, several strokes are required for a complete run of
all distributors.
