Electricity
Before working on the electrical circuit, turn the battery switch to
OFF position or cut off the current with the ignition switch.
Make sure that you understand the electrical circuit before you
connect or disconnect an electrical component. A wrong
connection can cause injury or damage.
Never put a metal object across the battery terminals to check
the charge of the battery. The sparks could cause an explosion.
Use a voltmeter or a hydrometer to check the battery.
Never smoke while checking battery liquid levels. A battery
produces inflammable fumes. The electrolyte is an acid solution
which is dangerous to the skin and the eyes.

Never top up batteries with acid. Always use distilled water.


When the battery electrolyte is frozen, the battery can explode if
you try to charge the battery or you try to start it using a battery
in parallel. To prevent the battery electrolyte from freezing, try to
keep the battery at full charge. If you do not follow these
instructions, you or others in the area can be injured.
When using an external power unit to start the engine, connect
the ground cable last and disconnect it first to avoid sparks near
the batteries, as they could ignite the fumes given off by the
batteries. With this method, connect the back-up battery earth
cable to the machine's starter motor earth terminal.
Never wear metal rings or metal watch bands. You could earth an
electrical circuit and burn yourself.

Hydraulics
The hydraulic system operates at a very high pressure. Hydraulic
oil, even from a minute leak, can go through your skin and cause
serious injury. When you check for leaks, do not use your hands,
use a piece of wood or paper. If you think hydraulic oil has
penetrated your skin, consult a doctor immediately.
Before disconnecting any hydraulic lines or components make
sure that pressure has been released in the circuit. Check for
leaks after reconnecting hydraulic hoses, pipes and components.
Hydraulic rams (especially derricking and telescoping rams)
must be fully retracted or the cylinder and piston rod chambers
of extended rams must be bled before any intervention is carried
out on hydraulic circuits or components (especially on relief
valve blocks flanged to rams).
The spreader must also be supported and in a horizontal position
before any intervention on the damping ram.
On any circuits using hydraulic or pneumatic reservoir bottles (e.
g. braking or suspension circuits) gas or hydraulic oil pressures
must be dropped to zero and their bottles emptied before
carrying out any intervention.

Hydraulic oil is inflammable. Never weld lines or pipes filled with
oil.
Hot hydraulic oil can cause burns: let the oil cool down before
draining the tank.
After any service operation on the hydraulic circuit, its
components or its fluid, it is essential to bleed the circuit to
remove any air which might have entered it, using the bleed
nipples provided for the purpose on the rams. This job must be
done by a qualified specialist.

Safety instructions concerning tyres


Note: The wheels and tyres are primary safety components on
the machine so check their condition regularly. Do not forget that
only specialized personnel are allowed to work on these parts.
Before removing any tyres from the machine and under all
circumstances:
Make sure that the fixed anchorage of the internal rim is not split
and that there is nothing wedged between two coupled tyres.
Start by loosening the wheel stud nuts by two or three turns only.
As the remaining wheel nuts stop the rim being ejected, dislodge
the external rim if necessary whilst keeping out of its trajectory in
case of an eventual ejection. As the external and internal rims are
then free, continue unscrewing the wheel nuts.
WARNING: If it is impossible to release the external and internal
rims after unscrewing the wheel nuts by two or three turns, it
means that something is wrong. In this case deflate the tyres
before taking off wheels. The same care must be taken if
something is wedged between two coupled tyres.
1/ Deflation
Remove the internal part of the inner tube valve and wait until
there is no more air whistling. In winter, check that there is no ice
plugged in the inner tube valve. Make sure that the tyre is totally
deflated. Avoid standing in front of the tyre during this operation.

2/ Taking off the wheel rings


Before any operation, make sure that the tyre is completely
deflated. In any case do not stand in front of the wheel during
this operation.
3/ Before and during tyre fitting
Carefully inspect the rim after cleaning it to verify that no cracks
are starting to form.
Fixed clamp fastener side (a)
Removable ring side, in the groove of the locking ring (b)
Carefully inspect the removable ring and the locking ring.
Replace any parts which are too corroded, show signs of cracks
starting to form or are badly distorted.
Check wheel discs for cracks.
Check that all mobile parts: removable rings (or side rings), and
locking rings correctly correspond with the rim.
Check that all different parts are correctly seated (locking ring
correctly seated inside its groove for example).

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
4/ Inflation
With the wheel or the rim fitted with the tyre laid on the ground,
inflate just until the removable ring places itself against the
locking ring. Then place the assembly vertically against a wall,
the removable ring on the wall side, and continue inflation.
IMPORTANT: In any case and during inflation operations never
stand in the probable trajectory of all or part of the wheel or the
rim. When you inflate a tyre on a vehicle take the same care as
above, stand to one side. Do not leave anybody in front.
5/ Wheel in two parts
When dismantling, do not confuse the assembly bolts of the two
shells (a) with the mounting bolts of the wheel (b)
Before inflation, make sure that the assembly bolts of the two
shells are fully tightened.

Chapter II - Page 16 of 40

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
For your own safety and that of others, it is compulsory to check
the correct tightness of the wheels nuts using the wrench
provided with the machine. Frequency: after 50 hours, then every
100 hours of service.
Note: regularly check cold tyre pressures: every 50 hours or
once a week.
DANGER - Never operate the machine with under-inflated tyres.
Inflation pressures are given for cold tyres, inflation and
pressure checks must be carried out on cold tyres. Never deflate
a hot tyre.
Check condition of tyres without any load on the machine. If the
wheel is not fitted on the machine, always use an inflation cage.
With coupled tyres, always use same size, make, type, wear and
pressure to avoid any damage to tyres.
Do not risk an accident while inflating the tyres. Never stand in
front of the wheel. Use a flexible pipe of sufficient length with a
self tightening inflation socket.
Deflate tyres before trying to remove stones from the tyre tread.
When fixing balance weights to be tack welded on the site, use
only special equipment designed for the purpose.
Never cut or weld anything whatsoever on a rim fitted with an
inflated tyre.

Stacker operating conditions and


recommendations

General information
In all circumstances, the primary recommendation is prudence.
If the machine stays unused outside and with the piston rods
extended, all the rods must be greased to avoid corrosion.

General handling recommendations.


Containers are generally marked with their weight. Always verify
that the handling operation envisaged is compatible with the
table of loads of the machine.
The handling reaches indicated on the load capacity chart are the
distances measured between the spreader suspension vertical
axis and the vertical tangent of the front edge of the front wheels.
In order to maintain maximum safety, never lift loads exceeding
the maximum capacity.
The reach is increased by lowering and/or extending the boom.
By increasing the reach the lifting capacity is reduced. Do not
forget that the reach is increased when the machine goes down
slopes.

K-62440-49

Chapter II - Page 18 of 40

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
To pick up a container place the machine as close to it as
possible in order to have the best possible stability.
Never move a container horizontally without having lifted it from
the ground.
Never use the machine with safety devices shunted, or only
under very special conditions under the operator's responsibility.
If the machine has not been used for a long period, check correct
working order of the anti-tipping device by telescoping a
container barely off the ground until the handling functions are
automatically cut.
Never stand under the spreader, especially if a load is
suspended.

Spreader
When picking up a container always try to keep the longitudinal
axis of the machine as perpendicular as possible to that of the
container.
When slewing the spreader with respect to the container, use the
hydraulic slewing control or let the spreader down using the
container's corner guides after having activated the free slewing
function control. Never use the spreader's hydraulic slewing
control on the corner guides without having previously released
the slewing brake as mentioned above.

K-62440-49

Chapter II - Page 19 of 40

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
The weight of the spreader on the container must be sufficient to
make the twistlocks enter the corner twistlock housings. Never
use boom movement functions to press the spreader down on to
the container.
If the spreader safety system warning lights do not operate
correctly the unit must be repaired immediately. Using a machine
with faulty warning lights can cause serious accidents.
If container lock on is not achieved and the four spreader
positioning detectors are in contact with the container the
problem may be due to distortion of the container. Check that the
container twistlock housings are not obstructed (ice, etc.) or that
dirt has not accumulated in them. Never drive the machine with a
suspended container if the twistlocks are not fully engaged.
It is strictly prohibited to start a container lifting manoeuvre if the
red warning light is on (twistlocks not fully engaged) or if the
other indicator lights are not lit. Container lifting cannot be
started until the red warning light goes out and the green light
comes on.
It is essential to balance the weight of the load on the vertical
axis of the boom head. Do not start any other manoeuvre,
especially driving the machine, before carrying out this
operation. Use the side shift function to do this. Except for
special or refrigerated containers the weight distribution is
uniform and is balanced around the lengthwise midpoint.

Driving the machine


When the machine is unladen, drive with the boom head over the
front axle, never over the rear of the machine.

K-62440-49

Chapter II - Page 20 of 40

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual

When driving under load, place the container slightly above the
operator's eye level and retract the boom to obtain the best
possible stability.
When transporting the load, it must be kept as close as possible
to the front axle (height and reach) or slightly forward to this
position, never further towards the rear. The container's position
should also allow the operator good visibility from the cab.
To ensure good visibility from the cab, avoid transporting the
load positioned in the field of vision.
In normal driving conditions use the middle pedal for braking.
The left hand pedal is only to be used for final 'inching' approach.
Braking reduces both longitudinal and lateral machine stability.
Adapt braking according to speed and the load being
transported. Be particularly careful when taking bends.
This machine has rear wheel steering, so pay attention to the
trajectory of the rear wheels when turning. Keep in mind that the
space occupied by the rear end of the machine during turning
manoeuvres is different than that of other vehicles. Keep a
minimum clearance of 50 cm between the counterweight and any
obstacle.
Adjust speed according to worksite conditions: this is governed
by environmental and ground conditions, the height and size of
the load along with visibility. Avoid sudden, abrupt manoeuvres
(taking bends, braking and speed).

Introduction
PPM machines are carefully designed, tested, and manufactured.
When used properly by qualified operators, they will give safe, reliable
service. PPM has concessionaires who are competent to answer any
questions about its products or their safe use.
This machine has been designed to handle loads in accordance with
the load capacity chart and with instructions contained in this manual.
The machine should only be used in accordance with current laws and
regulations in force in the country concerned.
It is strictly prohibited to lift people with the machine unless it is
expressly equipped with an approved man-carrying platform supplied
by PPM.
This machine is not to be used as demolition equipment.
It is strictly prohibited to push or drag objects with the boom.

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
Any use of the machine other than the handling of loads must be
authorized in advance by the PPM company.
Normal conditions of use envisaged are an average of 17 hours per
day, 7 days per week, 300 days per year under normal environmental
conditions and at an altitude of less than 1,000 m.
For more intensive use or under harsher environmental conditions
(high temperatures, dusty or humid atmosphere, etc.), the machine
must be used with precaution, checked more frequently and the
lubrication and servicing intervals must be shortened.
PPM has concessionaires who can answer all your questions
regarding conditions of use of the machine.
Because these machines have the ability to lift heavy loads to great
heights, they also have a potential for causing accidents if safe
operating practices are not followed. These pages will help the
operator prevent accidents which could result in property damage,
personal injury or death.
General safe practices for working on machinery must be followed as
well as the safe operating practices recommended here.

Maintenance and operator's manual

Operator's responsibility
Safety must always be the operator's most important concern. He
must refuse to operate when he knows it is unsafe and consult his
supervisor when safety is in doubt. He must read and fully understand
the Maintenance and Operator's Manual, all instructions, signs, and
decals on the machine. He must see that the machine is in proper
order and that all operational aids and warning signals are functional
before operating.
He must be alert, physically fit, and not under the influence of alcohol,
drugs, or medication that might affect his eyesight, hearing, or
reactions.
He must make sure that people, equipment, and material are kept out
of the work area.
When an operator's view is obstructed or when operating in
hazardous areas such as near power lines or around people, in these
special circumstances a signalman or an crew member must be used.
The operator must keep a fully charged fire extinguisher and first aid
kit in the cab at all times and be familiar with how to use these items.
The operator should understand the movements of other machinery,
trucks and personnel at the jobsite.

Signalman 's responsibility


The primary duty of a signalman is to assist the operator in safe and
efficient operation. Operators depend on designated signalmen to
assist them in making movements without endangering people or
property.
Signalmen must place themselves where they can be clearly seen
and where they can safely observe the entire operation.
Signalmen must have a clear understanding of the work to be done so
that they can safely coordinate each job with operators and other crew
members.
Standard signals must be used unless other methods of signalling
such as two way radios or flags have been agreed upon.
The driver's assistant is the only person who may direct the driver.

Responsibilities of all crew members


Any unsafe condition or practice must be corrected or reported to the
job supervisor.
Watch for hazards during operations and alert the operator and
signalmen of dangers such as power lines, the unexpected presence
of people, other equipment or unstable ground conditions.

Management responsibility
See that operators are trained, competent, physically fit and, if
required, licensed. Good vision is required as are good judgment,
coordination and mental ability. Any person who lacks any of these
qualities must not be allowed to operate a machine.
Any person who is associated with working on the SUPER STACKER,
such mechanics, must respect all safety signals and be aware of their
own safety as well as that of others. Machine personnel such as
mechanics are required to be aware of any particular procedures
concerning their jobs on the machine.

Planning the job


Many accidents can be avoided provided that the worksite is correctly
organized. The person in charge must have a clear understanding of
the work to be done, consider all dangers on the jobsite, develop a
plan to do the job safely, and then explain the plan to all concerned.
Factors such as these should be considered:
-What crew members are needed and what responsibilities will they
be given?
- How will the assistant communicate with personnel members?
- What equipment is required to perform the handling in perfect
safety?
- Is the machine the most suitable means?
- Are there any high tension lines to be avoided?
- Is the ground sufficiently stable to support the machine and its load?
- Are there any extreme climatic conditions such as wind or intense
cold?
- What steps must be taken to keep staff who are not required for the
operation out of the working area of the machine?

Operator's safety check


The operator must make a safety check before starting work each day
to see that the machine is in proper order. Among other things, the
operator should:
- check the machine log book to see that periodic maintenance and
inspections have been performed and all necessary repairs made.
- check the operation of boom hoist upper angle limiter device, backup
alarms, and other operator aids.
- carefully inspect boom, outriggers, spreader, etc. according to the
type of machine.
- be sure no unauthorized modifications have been made, such as
added counterweights or improper repairs to the boom.
- check for hydraulic oil leaks.
- after starting the engine, check all instrument readings.
- test all movements for proper operation.
- check brakes and clutches.

Operating precautions
An error in determining lifting capacity can cause an accident.
Numerous factors must be taken into account:
The reach is the distance from the wheels of the machine to the axis
of the spreader. Note that the boom bends, increasing reach, when
the load is lifted.
Lifting a load which is outside the load table, reasoning that the act of
lifting will bring it into the load table, is extremely dangerous. The
machine could tip and fall over if the load is too heavy.
Always remain within the load table. The driver must reduce the load
as a function of site conditions and use his judgement to evaluate
what loads can be lifted in perfect safety.
Machines may fall over or tilt if the ground is not stable enough to
support their weight.

K-62440-49

Chapter II - Page 29 of 40

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
Establish the stability of the ground on which the machine is to
manoeuvre. Make sure that the ground can support the machine.
Avoid ground which is soft, unstable or partially frozen. If the machine
is working near a trench, this must be buttressed or filled in to avoid
subsidence.
The lifting capacity of a machine is given for a maximum angle of 60.
Any greater slope considerably reduces its load capacity.
People behind the machine may be struck by its counterweight if there
is not enough free space. Carry out a test rotation, unladen, before
starting work.
Position the machine so as to leave enough space between the
counterweight and any obstacles (minimum 0.60 m).
Many injuries have been caused by people being struck by hooks,
loads or containers. To avoid this, remain outside the zone of
operation of the machine.
Never lift people with the machine. Use stepladders, scaffolding, work
platforms, elevator platforms or other equipment designed for the
purpose and conforming to standards in force.
Many injuries have been caused by high tension lines. Such accidents
can be avoided by obeying the simple rules given below.

K-62440-49

Chapter II - Page 30 of 40

06/12/2004

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
The machine runs on pneumatic tyres:
After a site machine has been in contact with a high tension overhead
structure, tyres (with a metal internal structure) which have not been
destroyed do not retain either their insulating qualities or their
mechanical strength. If they do not burst immediately, they often burst
later on, after prolonged exposure to sunlight.
The machine should not be approached until the temperature of the
air in the tyres has dropped.
The tyres must be removed and scrapped after the machine has been
extricated from contact with the power line.
WARNING - Properly planned work and assiduous supervision
provide better protection than any other measure. Insulated cages and
proximity detectors have their limits and are subject to unpredictable
breakdown. Protection cables and insulated cages only protect the
machine, and can become electrically conductive in the presence of
dust or water.
Proximity detectors may be put into use for various combinations of
HT lines and movements of vehicles or equipment by the crane itself
or other parameters. It can be very dangerous to put complete trust in
these systems, as the driver may believe himself to be protected when
he is not.
In the event of thunderstorms, take the following precautions:
- If possible, put down the load and stow the boom.
- If the sudden onset of a thunderstorm takes you by surprise, stop the
engine and leave the machine.
- If the machine is struck by lightning, check its general functioning
before starting to use it again.
You should always be aware of the weather forecast for your region.

(* ) Always find out the position of any high tension lines before
starting work. It is advisable to keep more than 6 m away from high
tension lines. Make sure that you always stay as far from the lines as
possible, and never go within the minimum distance.
Always respect these precautions if there are high tension lines in the
vicinity.
Informer the company responsible for the HT lines (E. D. F in France)
before starting work.
Use an assistant to maintain a safe distance between the machine
and the HT lines. The driver is not best placed for estimating
distances.
Warn people to stay well away from the machine all the time. If the
load has to be moved to be positioned, check with EDF for any special
precautions such as insulated points or potential nodes.
Manoeuvre slowly, leaving yourself plenty of time to react to any
problem that may arise, and use two different means to estimate the
distance between the high tension lines and any part of the machine.
Conduct in case of accidental contact.
Conduct is not laid down by regulations, but depends on an analysis
of immediate risks. It should form part of the operator's instructions or
training.

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
People can be injured if the boom, load or spreader are moved before
everyone is clear.
Make sure everyone is in a safe place before moving the boom, load
or spreader. Do not move loads over people. Do not allow the load to
bump or catch on anything.
Rapid spreader swings or sudden starts and stops can cause the
attached load to shift.
Dirty windows, darkness, bright sunlight, fog, rain, and other
conditions can make it difficult for the operator to see.
Keep windows clean. Do not operate if you cannot see clearly enough
to operate safely.
The wind can also lead to loss of control of the load by breaking the
boom and by causing the machine to topple. High altitude wind can be
stronger than at ground level. When the wind speed exceeds 12. 2
m/s (= force 6 on the Beaufort scale), the stacking of more than 2
containers is prohibited. When the wind speed exceeds 19. 8 m/s (=
force 9 on the Beaufort scale), all use is prohibited.
Do not raise any load if the wind is uncertain or unsettled. Lower the
boom if necessary. Refer to the load diagram tables.
Always wait until the machine has stopped. Do not jump on or off.
Always use both hands and make sure you have a good footing.
Slippery floors, footplates, steps, tools, trash, or other loose items can
cause falls.

KEEP THE MACHINE CLEAN AND DRY.
A damaged machine can be dangerous and cause an accident. A
machine with a telescopic boom should be checked weekly to make
sure that there is no distortion of the base or guide shoes. In either
case, the reduction in strength is very difficult to estimate.
Inspect the boom of the machine daily.
Never use a damaged boom.
NOTE - Because the boom is made from high-strength steel, special
procedures are necessary to effect repairs.
Consult your concessionaire.
The booms of a machine may twist if subjected to lateral loads
(sideways traction).
Typical causes of lateral stress are:
Sudden slewing when starting or stopping.
Using the boom to pull a load
Wind force
Lifting when the machine is not level.
Be careful not to exert lateral efforts.
If the boom is used for purposes other than lifting, it may break.
Never allow the boom to bend under the weight of its load or from any
other cause.

Safe operating practices


Maintenance and operator's manual
Attempting to lift a load which is stuck, frozen or anchored to
something may cause the machine to fall over or the boom to break.
Make sure the load is not restrained before any attempt at lifting.
Trying to repair or adjust equipment with a load or with the boom
raised could release machinery and let it move unexpectedly.
Always lower the load to the ground and the boom into rest position
(horizontal) before doing any maintenance or repair work.
Pressure in hydraulic systems can be retained for long periods of
time. If not properly released before maintenance staff attempt to work
on the hydraulic systems, this pressure can cause machinery to move
or allow hot oil and hose ends to shoot out at high speed.
Release system pressure before attempting to make adjustments or
repairs.
Lower the suspension of the machine to release the pressure in the
hydraulic circuit of the suspension accumulators.

As with all heavy equipment, care must be taken when moving about,
both on or off the work site.
Pay attention to workers, high tension lines, awkward sections with
low clearance such as bridges, limited load roadways, slopes or rough
ground. Get help from an assistant when manoeuvring in limited
spaces.
It can be dangerous to leave a machine without taking precautions.
Before leaving the machine, the driver must take the following
measures to ensure that the machine does not move:
- lower the load to the ground and lower the boom if necessary
- apply the parking brake
- move the gear selector into neutral position (n)
- stop the engine.

L.M.I. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS


THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS APPLY WHEN THE LOAD
MOMENT INDICATOR (LMI) SHOWS AN OVERLOAD.

SHUT-DOWN IN THE CASE OF OVERLOAD WHEN


SETTING DOWN A CONTAINER:
When the machine gets into a position in which the LMI detects an
overload and the functions Lower Boom and Extend Boom are shut
down (in addition to the audible and visual warnings), the machine
must not be moved.
In such a case, the boom must be raised until it reaches a safe
position and the warning signals cease.

SHUT-DOWN IN THE CASE OF OVERLOAD WHEN


ATTEMPTING TO LIFT A CONTAINER:
When the machine gets into an overload position while attempting to
lift a container, so that the audible and visual warnings are triggered,
the load can be lifted by raising the boom.
The machine must not be moved as long as the warning signal is
active.
The machine can only be moved safely when the warning signal has
ceased.
As a general rule, movement under load in front of a pile of containers
is only permissible in first gear, and must be effected with great
caution.
When the overload warning signal goes on in this configuration,
movement of the machine is prohibited.

Recommendations for minimizing levels of vibration of the


machine.
The level of vibration when driving depends on the following
conditions:
the state of the ground: potholes, lumps, etc.
driving conditions: speed, cornering, braking, etc.
The driver chooses his own speed and route as a function of the
terrain.
The result is a broad spectrum of levels of vibration which can be
minimized by respecting the following recommendations:
- Choose the machine and its equipment as a function of the
task
- Choose a machine in perfect condition (tyre pressures,
condition of brakes, steering, etc.)
- Changes of direction, braking, acceleration, changes of
speed, all move the load and the equipment.
- Keep the area where the machine operates in a good state.
Remove large stones and obstacles
Fill in holes
Schedule maintenance work on the operating area.
- Use a seat conforming to ISO 7096 and keep it in good
condition and correctly adjusted.
Adjust the seat and suspension as a function of the
weight and height of the operator.
Repair the adjustment and suspension mechanisms if
they are faulty.
- Suiting the speed of the machine to the nature of the ground
reduces vibration.
Slow down on rough ground.
Avoid obstacles and bad surfaces.

Operating and Maintenance Manual
This engine is designed to start without any aid to starting at
temperatures above -12C (10F). If the temperature is lower than 12C, it is necessary to use an aid to starting or to change the engine
oil to 15W40. For starting at temperatures under 12C (10F)
proceed as described in 4.

Warning
Do not operate the starter motor for more than 30 seconds
at a time. If the engine fails to start within that time,
release the engine start switch and wait two minutes
before trying again. If this precaution is not followed
serious damage to the starter motor may result.
IMPORTANT: The power
steering only operates when
the engine is running. It is
dangerous to shut off the
engine while driving the
machine.

Turn and hold the key in the start position until the engine fires.
Release the key as soon as the engine fires.
4. To start the engine under cold conditions, temperatures under 12C (10F), using a starting aid, proceed as follows:
A. Perform steps 1 and 2.
B. Spray a small amount of ether into the air intake.
C. Turn the key and start the engine as previously described in step 3
above.
NOTE - During the period of starting, extra batteries (this is a 24 volt
electrical system) may be required. This will depend on the charge
condition of the machine's battery.
NOTE - Use ether sparingly and cautiously. If too much ether is used,
it has a retarding effect in starting the engine. Also, ether is not
effective at temperatures below -23 C (-10 F).

Prevention of fire risks in


the engine compartment.
The engine compartment must be inspected each time the machine is
to be put into service, that is to say every day.
When carrying out this inspection, check that the oil, fuel and air
conditioning circuits are leak tight and dry.
Check the tightness of the fuel and oil filters, the injection pump, the
hydraulic unit, the hydraulic motors of the ventilation apparatus and
their supply piping.
The leaktghtness and correct operation of the exhaust system,
especially the exhaust fixing flange must also be checked.
Due to the heat produced by the exhaust pipes, it is important to make
sure that the electric circuits are positioned and fixed far enough away
from them, and that they are properly insulated.
If the engine compartment is not regularly cleaned, it may become
fouled with oil or fuel, especially after maintenance or repair work. In
the case of a machine with sound insulation, the sound insulation
panels must be cleaned regularly.
The engine compartment must only be cleaned with non-flammable
cleaning products. Corrosive or chemically aggressive products
should be avoided, in order to preserve the cabling and flexible hoses.
Do not forget to screw back all filler plugs properly.
In the event of any unusual odour in the cab, stop the engine and
determine the cause.

Function and identification of valve positions


The marking position on the valve indicates the closed or open
position of the valve.

The valve is open if the marking is parallel to the boom, pointed


towards the cab.

If the mark is at right angles to the boom, the valve is closed.

The position of the handle is not a reliable indication unless it is


aligned with the marking.
In normal use, the large valve 2 must be open and the small valve 1
closed. The damping circuit is correctly set up.

If the valves are in this position when the machine is stored without
the spreader, the damper cylinder piston rods will be completely
extended. It is impossible to fix the spreader in this position. The
piston rods will remain fully retracted if the valve positions are
inversed (small valve open, large valve closed).
An intermediate position can be obtained by closing the small valve as
soon as the required position is obtained. The valves should be
placed in their normal working positions once the spreader has been
fixed.
The only function of these valves is to facilitate the removal and

Recommendations for minimizing levels of vibration of the


machine.
The level of vibration when driving depends on the following
conditions:
the state of the ground: potholes, lumps, etc.
driving conditions: speed, cornering, braking, etc.
The driver chooses his own speed and route as a function of the
terrain.
The result is a broad spectrum of levels of vibration which can be
minimized by respecting the following recommendations:
- Choose the machine and its equipment as a function of the
task
- Choose a machine in perfect condition (tyre pressures,
condition of brakes, steering, etc.)
- Changes of direction, braking, acceleration, changes of
speed, all move the load and the equipment.
- Keep the area where the machine operates in a good state.
Remove large stones and obstacles
Fill in holes
Schedule maintenance work on the operating area.
- Use a seat conforming to ISO 7096 and keep it in good
condition and correctly adjusted.
Adjust the seat and suspension as a function of the
weight and height of the operator.
Repair the adjustment and suspension mechanisms if
they are faulty.
- Suiting the speed of the machine to the nature of the ground
reduces vibration.
Slow down on rough ground.
Avoid obstacles and bad surfaces.

driven.
The following instructions constitute reminders rather than advice,
since the manufacturer knows that this equipment will be entrusted to
an operator of confirmed competence.

Preliminary Inspection and Adjustments


Every day, before using the machine, go through maintenance check
list "A" of this manual.
Clean the windows, headlights, and mirrors to ensure full vision. Also
make sure the mirrors and operator's seat are properly adjusted.

Starting the engine.


To start the engine, proceed as follows:
1- Put the Forward/Reverse lever in neutral position (N).
2- Tighten the parking brake.
3- Sound the audible warning.
4- Start the engine (normal temperature conditions above -12C
(10F).

This engine is designed to start without any aid to starting at
temperatures above -12C (10F). If the temperature is lower than 12C, it is necessary to use an aid to starting or to change the engine
oil to 15W40. For starting at temperatures under 12C (10F)
proceed as described in 4.

Warning
Do not operate the starter motor for more than 30 seconds
at a time. If the engine fails to start within that time,
release the engine start switch and wait two minutes
before trying again. If this precaution is not followed
serious damage to the starter motor may result.
IMPORTANT: The power
steering only operates when
the engine is running. It is
dangerous to shut off the
engine while driving the
machine.

Turn and hold the key in the start position until the engine fires.
Release the key as soon as the engine fires.
4. To start the engine under cold conditions, temperatures under 12C (10F), using a starting aid, proceed as follows:
A. Perform steps 1 and 2.
B. Spray a small amount of ether into the air intake.
C. Turn the key and start the engine as previously described in step 3
above.
NOTE - During the period of starting, extra batteries (this is a 24 volt
electrical system) may be required. This will depend on the charge
condition of the machine's battery.
NOTE - Use ether sparingly and cautiously. If too much ether is used,
it has a retarding effect in starting the engine. Also, ether is not
effective at temperatures below -23 C (-10 F).

Prevention of fire risks in


the engine compartment.
The engine compartment must be inspected each time the machine is
to be put into service, that is to say every day.
When carrying out this inspection, check that the oil, fuel and air
conditioning circuits are leak tight and dry.
Check the tightness of the fuel and oil filters, the injection pump, the
hydraulic unit, the hydraulic motors of the ventilation apparatus and
their supply piping.
The leaktghtness and correct operation of the exhaust system,
especially the exhaust fixing flange must also be checked.
Due to the heat produced by the exhaust pipes, it is important to make
sure that the electric circuits are positioned and fixed far enough away
from them, and that they are properly insulated.
If the engine compartment is not regularly cleaned, it may become
fouled with oil or fuel, especially after maintenance or repair work. In
the case of a machine with sound insulation, the sound insulation
panels must be cleaned regularly.
The engine compartment must only be cleaned with non-flammable
cleaning products. Corrosive or chemically aggressive products
should be avoided, in order to preserve the cabling and flexible hoses.
Do not forget to screw back all filler plugs properly.
In the event of any unusual odour in the cab, stop the engine and
determine the cause.

Stopping the engine


To stop the engine, proceed as follows:
1- Place the transmission shift lever in the neutral position.
2- Pull the parking brake control lever up to set the parking brakes.
3. Allow the engine to idle for 3 to 5 minutes. This will allow the engine
and turbocharger to cool down and prevents overheating due to
localized residual heat. Extreme heat can seize bearings.
4. Push in and hold the engine shutdown button 87 until the engine
comes to a complete stop.

Removing/installing
the spreader
It may become necessary to remove and install the spreader on
certain occasions. To do so proceed as follows:
1. Install trestles approximately 1.30 m (4 feet) off the ground to
accommodate the spreader assembly. Lower the spreader onto the
trestles.
2. Shut down the engine and remove the key from the ignition.
3. Disconnect the hydraulic lines at the quickfit unions and plug the
hoses to prevent dirt from entering.
4. Disconnect the electric cables and install the shunt plug.
5. Remove the four pins securing the rotor to the rotator head.
6. To install the spreader, perform the preceding steps in reverse
order.
7 - Check the position of the damping cylinder valves.

Function and identification of valve positions


The marking position on the valve indicates the closed or open
position of the valve.

The valve is open if the marking is parallel to the boom, pointed


towards the cab.

If the mark is at right angles to the boom, the valve is closed.

The position of the handle is not a reliable indication unless it is


aligned with the marking.
In normal use, the large valve 2 must be open and the small valve 1
closed. The damping circuit is correctly set up.

If the valves are in this position when the machine is stored without
the spreader, the damper cylinder piston rods will be completely
extended. It is impossible to fix the spreader in this position. The
piston rods will remain fully retracted if the valve positions are
inversed (small valve open, large valve closed).
An intermediate position can be obtained by closing the small valve as
soon as the required position is obtained. The valves should be
placed in their normal working positions once the spreader has been
fixed.
The only function of these valves is to facilitate the removal and
refitting of equipment.

This operation is valid for all types of slewing ring fasteners, consult
the technical specifications for the corresponding torque values.
3 - Afterwards slewing ring fastener tightness must be checked every
500 hours. Tooling, verification conditions, method and torque values

are the same as in paragraph 2.

a) Verify all the fasteners. Mark all fasteners with a torque value of
less than 85% of the nominal value.

If the number of fasteners detected with this characteristic is

greater than 20% of the total number, then all the ring fasten
ers must be changed.
USE ONLY ORIGINAL PPM SPARE PARTS

b) Otherwise retighten all fasteners with a torque value greater than


85% of the nominal value to the nominal torque value indicated in the
table, and in the order as shown in the illustration opposite.
c) Change, one by one and in the recommended order, all the
fasteners detected and marked in step (a) which have a torque value
inferior to 85% of nominal value.
ONLY USE GENUINE PPM SPARE PARTS
Tighten to the value indicated in the table d1.
4 - Systematic exchange :
-

If 20% of the screws have been replaced.

If the slew ring is replaced.

ONLY USE TEREX ORIGINAL PARTS..

NB :
The slew ring must be replaced:
. If it has reached its maximum wear limit (see paragraph on Checking
slew ring wear).
. Following an expert report after an accident, incorrect use of the
crane, etc.

Checking slew ring wear:

K-62440-49

Chapter IV - Page 10 of 47

06/12/2004

Maintenance
Operating and Maintenance Manual
We recommend that the clearances be gauged in order to determine
the condition of the slew ring. Wear on the raceways can be revealed
by tilting the upperstructure and measuring the changes in axial
clearance. The measurement must be made after the connection has
been checked (refer to the relevant paragraph).

Measuring the tilting clearance.


To determine the extent of wear, measure the tilting clearance as
follows using a comparator that is accurate to 0.01 mm:
Cranes:
-

Stabilize the machine on fully-extended outriggers using the


fullest possible counterweight arrangement attached to the
upperstructure.

Position the comparator as illustrated.

Extend the boom to an average of 15 to 20 metres, and raise


as high as possible.

Set the comparator to zero.

Lower the boom until it is horizontal. Do not exceed the


indications given in the load chart.

Take the reading of the tilting clearance from the comparator.

Stackers:
-

Travel the spreader carrier left or right as far as possible.

Set the comparator to zero. The comparator must be


positioned parallel to the spreader centreline by either the left
or right locks.

Travel the carrier as far as possible in the opposite direction.

Take the reading of the tilting clearance from the comparator.

The clearance is measured before the machine is put into


commission, and acts as the base measurement for subsequent
checks. A clearance of 0.5 to 0.7 mm may be used as a reference.

Details about the measurement:


The measurement points on the outer circumference are defined
starting arbitrarily from position 1.

K-62440-49

Chapter IV - Page 11 of 47

06/12/2004

Maintenance
Operating and Maintenance Manual
Take the measurement between the support frame and the slew ring
race bolted to the superstructure (see illustration).
The measurement must be taken as close as possible to the slew ring
to avoid any distortion caused by elastic deformation.
The measurement is to be repeated for each position marked on the
support frame, and the reference values are to be noted in a table like

This measurement must be repeated in the exact same conditions as

service and every 2,000 hours thereafter.
The difference between the last measurement readings and the
reference measurement denotes the extent of wear on the slew ring. If
the wear is growing at an increasingly faster rate, the checks will have
to be performed more frequently (e.g. every 1,000 or even 500 hours).

Do not forget to screw back all
filler plugs properly.

Note: Carry out the first oil changes between 50 and 200 operating
hours. After changing the oil, drive the machine for a few minutes at
low speed (2 km/h) and with no load in order to adequately lubricate
all internal components.

WARNING:
Before commencing work on the parking brake, ensure that no
unintended machine movement can happen when the braking
effect is removed. Danger to life!
DANGER:
The parking brake is under spring tension. Parts could become
loose and fly out suddenly if improper brake opening. Danger to
life!
Therefore release the lock nut (2) and turn the adjusting screw (3)
counter-clockwise until the spring set is released before
disassembly of the circlip (1)!

IMPORTANT:
The intervals given in the following tables are applicable to
equipment used under normal conditions.
For intensive use or under exceptional conditions (heat,
humidity, dust), servicing intervals should be reduced.
For all maintenance work, it is essential that the machine should
be supported with its outriggers fully extended on firm, flat, level
ground.

Operating and Maintenance Manual

Service intervals
It is essential for your machine to be regularly serviced.
The hour meter mounted on your crane tells you when servicing
operations should be carried out. It should be consulted every day.
The intervals are based on a 10 hour working day, 50 hours per week
and 2,000 hours per year
When carrying out these maintenance operations, tighten nuts,
bolts, etc. where required.

Hour meter
Its electric control is actuated by engine oil pressure. It accumulates
hours exactly like a clock when the engine is running.

Preliminary operations
First of all, clean grease fitting heads, plugs and periphery of filler
ports and level check sightglasses. When lubricating, check condition
of seals and replace them if they are damaged or show signs of wear.
Every precaution must be taken to protect the environment.
In particular, all liquids should be recovered and recycled.
Do not leave them in improperly labelled or open containers.
Do not permit any puddles of liquid on floors.

Operating and Maintenance Manual

General
Maintenance of the machine is conditioned by its operating
environment. The lists provided in the following pages show the points
to check and the intervals between each service.
NOTE:
The maintenance log provided takes into account the operating
conditions of the equipment. The type of work, size of loads and
climatic and ground conditions are also factors to be taken into
account. The servicing lists are given as a function of hours of
operation.
Any change in the servicing schedule must be preceded by a fresh
analysis of the operating conditions of the machine. Study the
maintenance log with care before making any change in service
intervals.

Using the maintenance log


This booklet constitutes a guide to preventive maintenance until such
time as experience enables definition of a plan corresponding to
special conditions of use.
As many copies as desired may be made of the maintenance log.
Each person performing a service operation must show it on the
maintenance list so that the machine can be checked at the next
service.
Completed maintenance lists constitute documents inseparable
from the machine.
