DRAFT


Preface

During CMEs conference held in April-2013, various Railways were assigned the work of preparation of procedures for handling rescue, Relief and restoration at Accident sites. The Railways have submitted their draft procedures on 12.03.2015 at Railway Board for preparation of Hand Book on Rescue and Restoration work by CAMTECH/GWL.

The draft hand book is prepared on the subject matter for assistance to

Rescue and Restoration staff ARTs/ARMEs on IR. The sample pattern is provide for each type of activities to be carried out at accident sites. Factually, there are various types of rolling stocks are running over Indian Railways. Each stock is having its own class specific to –

a) Dimension (Length, Width & Height) b) Tare weight and capacity c) Coupling arrangement of the vehicles d) Load bearing member in respect to tackling with the help of crane

etc.

So, different methods of tackling by 140 Ton break Down Cranes would be required for different stocks and in different situations and it may not be possible to anticipate every condition thrown upon by the actual accidents/working sites and delineate the exact method of handling. Hence, in following paragraphs a humble effort has been made to cover this to the extent possible with the inputs from crane in-charges on the basis of actual site experiences. Each accident site presents unique condition in itself and hence common sense must be applied apart from the proven methods of handling the stock ensuring safety to the human being and to the crane as well as salvaging rolling stock to the extent possible.

A brief about preparation of the crane at the shed before leaving for accident site, arrangements to be made after reaching the site and also things to ensure before departure after restoration work has also been included for the benefit of the crane users.

As of now, primarily two makes of 140 T. cranes operating over Indian Railways viz. Gottwald and Cowans Sheldon, each having their own variants also. Users are advised to check the applicability of the given instructions in regard to their model of the crane. In the following heads, stock wise procedure has been given incorporating the guidelines specific to that stock for assistance in Restoration work of various rolling stocks.


Ordering of 140T Cranes and Preparation of Disaster Management Plan.

[ HLC Recommendation No.- 15(b) page No. 9 ]

The disaster management plan must interalia include “who is responsible for what activities in detail”.

1. Preparation and implementation of Disaster Management plan is the

responsibility of concerned GM/DRM.

2. Authority to order ART/ARMV/140TBreak Down Crane, CME/CMPE(D)/Sr

DME/DME, etc.

3. Senior most Railway officer at the site of the Accident shall be designated

site manager.

4. Management of Rescue operations - Primarily Mechanical and Medical

Departments. Assistance to be provided by all Railway Men (Irrespective

of their department) as needed.

5. Relief operations including care for the dead – Commercial, Medical and

RPF department.

6. Communication network- Telecom department.

7. Crowd control and law and order at site - RPF.

8. State police clearance for restoration - RPF

9. Restoration operations -

Rolling Stock – Mechanical Department

Concerned Departments.

10. Maintenance of SPART/ART and ARMV Rolling stock/140TBreak Down

Cranes including Rail-Cum-Road and Road Mobile Emergency vehicle

etc. – Mechanical Department.

11. Maintenance of Equipments kept in SPART/ART/ARMV for Rescue and

Restoration operations – concerned departments.

12. Media Management at site –

A. Site manager shall be the Chief spokesman at site and can be

assisted by the concerned branch officers, if needed.

B. PR/Commercial departments, to look after the media needs at

site.

13. Check list for the officers and supervisors must be issued in the form of

pocket booklet indicating do’s and don’ts for the benefit of :

a. First official reaching the site of accident

b. Senior most officer at the site

c. Divisional/ HQ control organization

d. Station Manager/Station Master

Safety Precautions for Crane Operators

To understand the 140 T cranes and to operate the cranes efficiently and safely, the

operating personnel should follow the operating and maintenance manual supplied along

with the cranes. Some salient features (also included in the manuals) which if followed,

will ensure safety during operation are highlighted below:

1. Before raising the jib from match wagon, all blocking screws must be screwed down until they are locked on the top of the spring or by Hydraulic Axle blocking.

2. Both the relieving bogies must be unloaded prior to raising the jib from match wagon.

3. Before any movement of crane on its own power, operator must ensure proper engagement of travel clutch and braking of travel brake.

4. In the operating area, the operator should assess the cant with the jib in line with the track. If cant exceeds 13 mm, the crane should be levelled by using props

before load lifting because this crane in free on rail condition is suitable only with

counter weight on carriage. In this condition, there will be clearance in the side

bearers.

5. The operator must be thoroughly acquainted with the load charts provided in the crane to assess the duty selection.

6. Special care is to be taken during propping of jacks. Packing below foot steps / Propping chairs should be adequate and placed alternately, perpendicular and

parallel to the track, to give maximum load distribution. After applying jacks,

packing should be checked. The load should be lifted slowly just above the

ground and held there. Packing should be checked again to see if there is any

sinking of Propp.

7. If the crane is to be moved to another position, then the draw beam jacks should be raised, the foot steps / Propping chairs removed, the draw beam retracted and

locked in position before any movement.

8. Before any slew motion, slew lock pin must be removed.

9. Before undertaking any lifting operation, the operator must be sure that the duty selector of SLI is correctly set according to the configuration of the crane (i.e. free

on rail, or blocked, counter weight on super structure or carriage, heavy ballast

fitted etc.)

10. Extreme caution should be taken while working in super elevated track in free on rail condition with counter weight or heavy ballast fitted to superstructure.


11. During fitting of heavy duty ballast to the superstructure, heavy ballast must be raised fully, superstructure must brought in line with the track before introducing

ballast arm in to the heavy ballast, and locating pins must be engaged in the

support beam.

12. Swinging load is dangerous and should be avoided.

13. Emergency lower button should be operated only in case of emergency and the operation should not be part of the normal working cycle.

14. During coupling of the relieving bogies with the crane, the operator should move the crane close to the beam and the height and position of the beam should be

adjusted in such a way so that the base of the beam is in line with the carriage end

castings. This will prevent damage of the castings.

15. It is always better to lift the load from match truck end, if the derailment on the same track. Because in this case the operator has to lift the match truck and

relieving bogie clear of the track. On the ballast wagon side the operator has to

remove the heavy ballast first, then the ballast wagon and one relieving bogie.

For removing either ballast wagon or match truck, lifting beam need not to be

used. The 30 Te. Double legged sling of 7 M long can be used with main hook for

this operation.

16. To reduce timing, operating personal should practice the operation in idle time.

Some operations may be combined to reduce timing i.e. while carrying out

blocking out operations of screws, ‘A’ frame should be raised thus saving the

time. Lifting of relieving bogies/ match truck / ballast wagon should be as

minimum as possible above the rail level, before slewing.

17. Since the maximum instantaneous load on an individual prop that may arise with the crane being loaded to its capacity is around 150 Te., it is essential to prepare

the packing on the ground, using sleeper over wide area in order to prevent sink

age of props. In order to reduce time taken in restoration, it is advisable to take

the help of permanent way staff in levelling the ground and in building up of the

base for props.

18. Please remember that when you travel on own power with load on hook the axle load on track is much higher than normal. Depute a person to check track for

sinkage and gauge during travel. Insist on PWI to give good attention to track

where necessary.

19. Before travelling the crane on own power, check the brake power. Apply brakes, engage travel clutch and push the travel joystick for a short time to “Full”

position. If brakes are able to hold the crane, then the brake power is okay.


IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR BREAK DOWN STAFF Following instructions must be followed by break down Incharges, Supervisors and staff while working at accident sites:- 01. After reaching at accident site, observation of site and damaged

wagons/coaches to be carried out to ensure safe and efficient restoration. 02. Crane driver as well as staff should be advised regarding lifting load and

operational activities, explaining situation of spot. 03. Necessary equipments, tools, wooden packings etc. should be unloaded

from ART without wasting time and be sent the same to the accident spot. 04. Before energizing 140 Te Crane on electrified section for operations,

ensure that OHE has been made dead /slewed and secured and power block has been taken with provision of written memo.

05. Suitable and sufficient space to be created for propping and choose the

wooden packings of required sizes, so that strong and sound propping can be ensured. i.e effective propping base must be created.

06. Lifting load must be assessed properly in accordance with the Crane

configuration & working radius. 07. Always take care of cant/super elevation while lifting the load. 08. Ensure that SLI is in working order (SLI bypass should be avoided) 09. Ensure availability and understanding of load charts. 10. Rail clamp must be used as and when required. 11. Always utilize suitable capacity chain sling and wire rope slings and insert

hooks only at suitable places on the wagons/coaches during lifting. 12. While lifting the load, close watch to be kept on crane wheels and the

same to be communicated through megaphones continuously for analyzing & observing the situation.

13. Proper work distribution among staff and supervisors to be ensured at site

to avoid contradiction. 14. Extreme care to be taken while removing and lifting entangled load.

Safety of the staff to be kept in mind during such operations.


15. The load should be lifted slowly just above the ground level and held

there because swinging load is dangerous and should be avoided. 16. Utilize wire ropes / chain slings in such a manner, that they can be

removed successfully from object after lifting and placing at suitable place. 17. While slewing the crane 360 with lifted load, keep close watch and all the

precautions to be taken for safety of the crane. 18. If the adjacent track is given safe for traffic, safety of staff must be

ensured from running trains by communicating arrival of trains on megaphone. Always keep Red flag/Red lamp for emergency.

19. If TSL is introduced at site for passing of trains, extreme care / vigil is

required especially infringements of crane, load, operating personnel w.r.t. working line must be checked. At the time of train movement from adjacent line, the crane working must be paused.

20. After assessing the accident site, Multiple propping base should be prepared

in advance or simultaneously with the help of P-Way staff, this will reduce overall restoration time.

21. When the crane is ready In-Train formation, following points to be

ensured – - Axle blocking to be removed - Travelling gear to be disengaged - Parking brake to be removed - Slewing lock to be applied - Boom to be locked on trestle.

22. Also before leaving the accident site, it should be ensured that material from Crane unit is not left behind.

POINTS TO BE KEPT IN MIND BY DIVISIONS FOR ACCIDENT MANAGEMENT

(Ref: Addl.M(M)’s letter No.99/M(M&P)/7/6 Dated 11.8.1999)

The following points may be kept in mind by the Divisions for Accident Management:- A. For accidents involving Passenger trains, the BD cranes and MFDs in either direction in

the vicinity of the site must immediately be ordered by the Control as a routine.

B. In case of Goods train accidents involving mainline, the following procedure should be followed:-

Movement of 140 Te BD cranes must have the approval of CMPE(D)/HQ who is overall incharge of the management of ARTs, and in his absence any Mechanical Officer in Headquarters. In rare cases, where both lines are affected and when delays in contacting Headquarters are envisaged, cranes may be ordered by Division, but this should only be an exception.

Movement of MFDs can be ordered by the Divisional Mechanical officers as desired by DRMs.

C. Incase of accidents in Yard not affecting through movement, the

derailment may be tackled using ramps to the extent possible and MFD/Crane ordered only if the derailment CAN NOT be tackled by Jacks(HRE). This decision may be taken by the Divisional officers at their discretion depending upon the information available from site.

D. ARTs should be turned out within the target time of 30 minutes by day

and 45 minutes during night. ARMV should be turned out within 20 minutes from double entry siding and 25 minutes from single entry siding during both day and night (zonal railways may decide target time).

E. Movement of ARTs to the accident spots should be given top priority and

should not be stopped enroute. It is the responsibility of the Controlling DRM and his Officers that no slackness is allowed in this regard.

F. ARTs should be moved to the base Depot as soon as the restoration work

is over. G. For a minor derailment involving a few wagons, as far as possible MFDs

should only be deployed leaving the crane at the base station in readiness to attend major accidents.

H. Wherever road approach is available, attempt should be made to take the

MFD equipment by road through lorry and for this purpose, departmental


lorry should be earmarked. Wherever department lorries are not available to move the MFD/HRE, private lorries may be invariably hired.

I. Wherever MFD/HRE is required to serve both BG and MG territory,

arrangement for moving MFD/HRE by Truck / lorry is a must. J. Mock trials of ART should be done earnestly as prescribed to test the

efficacy and correct any deficiency in the system. K. Whenever assistance of additional BD crane/MFD is required from

neighbouring division or adjacent Railways. CMPE or any other HOD of the Mechanical Department will do the necessary liaison.

1. Preparation of 140 Te. Crane for "in-train" formation:

According to crane capacity, following instructions should be followed for better

performance of 140 Te. break down crane ensuring internal and external safety. Following points to be kept in mind for keeping 140 Te. Crane ready in all respects.

1. Feed pipe hoses between crane, match wagon, ballast wagon and relieving bogies should be connected. Feed pipe hoses of last vehicles should be kept on dummy and all isolating cocks except the last vehicle should be opened.

2. Hand brakes of match wagon, ballast wagon, relieving bogies and crane must be kept released but if the crane is stabled in the shed, wooden wedges must be inserted under the wheels of match & ballast wagons.

3. Connect AIR hose pipes between the vehicles.

4. BP /FP Angle Cock of match wagon, ballast wagon and crane to be kept open, otherwise Air brake will not be in function.

5. Travel clutch of both the trucks should be in disengaged position. Check mechanical indicator to ensure disengagement of travel clutch. (Physically ensure disengagement of Travel Gear)

6. Blocking screws of all the axle boxes should be lifted.

7. Slew lock pin of 140 Te. Crane should be in coupled position.

8. 12 Te. / 8 Te. Counter weight should be kept properly on crane carriage and hanger bolts locked with locking plate.

9. Brake power testing to be conducted, time-to-time in shed by attaching locomotive to ensure continuity in train formation. The test must be conducted in presence of break down supervisor.

10. Drain cocks of Air reservoirs of crane, match wagon and ballast wagon should be in closed position and leakage should not be there.

11. SA1 brake valve should be in released position and brake paddle should be locked with bolt.

12. Crane lifting tackles i.e. slings and other material should be kept systematically.

13. Rail clamps of the crane at both the ends should be secured with the hook.

14. All the draw beams / Outrigger should be in retracted condition and lock pin in inserted position.

15. In the locked condition of relieving bogies “ relieving bogie coupling pin” and “tumbler pin” should be in coupled position.

16. Transition coupling between crane, relieving bogies, match wagon and ballast wagon should be kept in tighten position.


2. Precaution and instructions during crane "In-train" Running:

During “in-train” formation, one crane man/Asstt should always be deputed to avoid unusuals with the crane. They must follow following instructions.

1. After starting of “intrain” formation”, the auxiliary engine of crane to be started first and then auxiliary compressor, so that crane brakes remain functional. MR pressure should not be less than 5.0 Kg/cm2.

2. After getting started auxiliary engine, battery charging to be ensured through ammeter.

3. Ensure auxiliary engine lube oil pressure between 1.8 Kg/cm² to 2.8 Kg/cm². Lube oil pressure should not drop below 1.5 Kg/cm².

4. For “in-train” formation, Red flag during day and red lamp during night should always be kept to utilize in emergencies. In case of any unusual or emergency, the emergency flap valve should be operated to stop the train. The same must immediately be communicated to the Breakdown Incharge/Supervisor on walkie-talkie.

5. Whenever train stops enroute following equipments to be checked:-

(a) Check the axle box condition by touching the axle box cover with hands for any rise of temperature of any of the axle boxes is rising abnormally. Information to be given to the break down incharge.

(b) Check following equipments/parts for unusual – Equalizing beam and its pin, brackets, leaf and coil springs, hangers, bolts, link and its pin and all transition couplings.

(c) Check whether lifting tackles are kept properly on match wagon and ballast wagon.

3. Precaution during “intrain” running and separation of crane from ART:

1. Before detaching the crane from ART, it must be ensured that MR pressure in the crane is not below 4.0 Kg/cm², because it is required for crane brake operation.

2. Brake pedal lock pin should be opened so that crane brake can be applied whenever required.

3. Before uncoupling the feed pipes, isolating cock should be closed.

4. After detaching the crane, apply crane self brakes by SA1 brake valve and ensure that crane brakes are working properly.

5. Check application & working of brakes.

6.


4. Precautions during preparation of crane at accident site for restoration works:

1. Axle box blocking screws to be blocked before unloading the relieving

bogies.

2. Start the main engine. If engine is cranking but not starting by operating “Key”, wait for 05 seconds and try again. This exercise should be done 2 to 3 time only. Do not repeat the operation of key frequently to avoid battery discharge.

3. Do not start travelling operation by the crane till MR pressure is created more than 5.0 Kg/cm². Ensure SA1 valve brake pedal in working order.

4. Avoid excessive tightening of derrick wire rope while lifting A-frame otherwise A-frame will not raise.

5. While lifting the jib from rester, it must be turned towards center so that resting table does not get damaged.

6. Select the duty, by duty selector switch according to lifting load.

7. Always choose suitable capacity lifting tackles according to work intensity.

8. Always choose the suitable place from where successful restoration can be undertaken.

5. Precautions and instructions for better performance of crane during restoration work at accident site:

1. Only authorized and competent break down officials shall deliver the instructions to the crane drivers while working at accident sites, but in case of any danger/unusual, any of the BDT staff can feed the indications to avoid unusual.

2. During restoration, Job (load) should not be dragged except hauling winch, but depending on requirement, only light load can be pulled, keeping crane jib “inline”.

3. Auxiliary hook to be utilized for lifting the load up to 25 Te. only. Beyond this load, main hook to be utilized.

4. Hauling operation should not be undertaken for more than 5.0 Te. loads, because hauling load is not shown by SLI.

5. Travelling operation should only be under taken when the jib is in “inline”. Limits of load lifting, given in the load chart, must be strictly followed.

6. If travel clutch does not engage, then: – (a) Release the crane brakes and observe clutch engagement. (b) Operate the joystick gradually.

7. During crane traveling, apply crane brakes for stopping the crane. Do not operate joystick reverse to stop the crane, because it will damage the system.


8. Always keep sharp observation over the crane wheels during restoration. Information regarding lifting of any wheels to be immediately communicated to the crane driver. Under such conditions, lifted load must be lowered and kept on ground level and propping to be examined thoroughly.

9. Speed selection should be changed only when crane is stopped completely.

10. Do not operate full joystick until travel clutch is inserted properly.

11. Before traveling, it must be ensured that, rail clamps have been removed, props removed and draw beam retracted and jib turned to “inline”

12. Before traveling, horn must be sounded to alert the staff.

13. Travel differential switch should be used only in slow speed operation when crane is unable to travel.

14. Duty selector switch must be set according to configuration.

15. Avoid dragging of tie cylinders with OHE wires while slewing the 140 Te. Crane.

16. Swinging load is always dangerous. The load should be lifted slowly just above the ground level and held for sometime to avoid swinging.

17. Do not lift the load to the excessive height from the ground level.

18. During operation, engine RPM should be gradually raised or reduced by the throttle lever. Always maintain the rpm as per requirement.

19. During restoration, two operations can be undertaken by this crane simultaneously but in exigencies, three operations may also be carried out.

20. To change the operation of crane, do not keep the joystick in operation, because it will damage the system of main joystick pump.

21. Main hoist emergency lower button should be operated only in case of emergency and the operation should not be part of the normal working.

22. Before undertaking lifting operation, the crane operator must be sure that duty selector of SLI is correctly set and SLI is in working order.

23. Do not override the SLI during restoration operation.

24. It is dangerous to work with the crane when MR pressure drops below 5.0 Kg/cm².

25. During operation, joystick must be operated gradually to keep the hydraulic system normal.

26. Do not use excessive electrical lighting at idle position, because batteries will get discharged.

27. Before under taking slewing movement, observe the train movement on the adjacent electrically charged line. Follow the G&SR rules strictly.


6. Precautions before and after shutting down the main engine (on completion of restoration works):

Precautions before shunting down the main engine

Precautions after shunting down the main engine

1. Check the battery ammeter. needle should be in + zone

1. After shutting down the main engine, all circuit breakers and battery isolator should be put “off”

2. Travel clutch should be disengaged. 2. Ignition key should be removed.

3. All the draw beams/ outriggers should be in retracted and locked position.

3. SA1 valve, brake foot pedal should be locked by inserting pin.

4. Relieving bogie-coupling pin should be in inserted position.

4. Material to be kept systematically on the crane.

5. Tie cylinders should be lowered completely.

5. All the transition couplings of the crane unit must be tighten.

6. Derrick wire rope should not be in loose position.

6. All the FP pipes and vacuum hose pipes should be coupled. FP cocks should be opened and outer most FP cock of last vehicle should be closed.

7. Before shutting down the main engine, it should be run on idle position for at least 3 minutes.

7. Heavy ballast and counter weight should be locked properly.

Attention:

If you are stabling/leaving the crane :–

(a) Ensure that wooden wedges have been inserted under

the wheels.

(b) Ensure that hand brakes of match wagon and ballast wagon have been applied.

(c) All doors of the crane have been closed and locked.


7. PREPARATION OF CRANE FOR WORKING AT SITE

Before uncoupling from the train do all the operations, i.e. uncoupling of hoses and starting of engine etc. mentioned in clause 6.1 to 6.4.6 of operators manuals.

Uncouple both the relieving Bogies as follows:

a) Remove the tumbler pins retaining the blocking screws above each of the Carriage Suspension Springs and screw down the blocking screws until they are locked down on to the top of the springs.

NOTE: Once locked these screw must NOT be adjusted against until the relieving bogies are re-coupled and loaded to the crane.

b) Ensure the wishbone Jack is in fully retracted position prior to unloading the relieving bogies.

c) Remove the tumbler pin retaining the crane casting lever-locking pin on the relieving bogies.

d) Exert a small amount of pull on the centre casting lever locking pin - at the same time slowly pump up (close the valve V2 and change the lever position P2 as shown in fig. 3) the relieving bogie jack until the locking pin slides out of centre casting lever.

e) With the locking pin withdrawn, lower off the main jack slowly (change the lever position to P(N) and open the valve V2 as shown in fig. 3 until the relieving bogie frame stops raising. The above operations have to be made for both the bogies.

f) Remove the slew-locking pin. g) Erect the 'A' frame erection switch to the raise position at the same time particular

care should be taken to ensure the derrick rope is kept in a reasonably tight condition.

NOTE: But should not cause jib bridle assembly to lift from the jib structure until the 'A' frame is fully erected.

h) Derrick the jib off the match wagon trestle until the main and aux. hoist blocks are clear off the match wagon.

NOTE : Both the relieving bogies must be unloaded prior to raising the jib from the match wagon trestle.

i) Check the gaps (Which should be about 2 to 3 mm approx.) between both top and bottom locating pads RB25 and RB26 (half-moon as shown in fig.1). If required load/unload the relieving bogie a bit to achieve these gaps.

WARNING: Do not operate the wishbone jack at all for this purpose. j) After gaps are found to be same take out the coupling pins. If required

load/unload the relieving bogie a little bit during this operation also. Uncouple both the relieving bogies in the same way. k) Move the crane slowly away from either relieving bogie. l) The relieving bogies can now be moved to any desired position either by towing

away in which case the hand-brakes will need to be released, or by the crane lifting it clear of the work area.


8. PREPARATION OF CRANE FOR IN-TRAIN RUNNING CONDITION

a) If the crane has been in the blocked condition, retract the jacks, remove the foot steps / Propping chairs and retract the draw beams / Outrigger. Lock draw-beams in the stowed position and stow the footsteps / Propping chairs. Bring the jib in line position.

b) Couple up relieving bogie as follows: NOTE: The carriage end castings and coupling pins on both ends of the carriage should be

thoroughly cleaned to remove all in grease dirt, dust etc. and re-greased prior to coupling. c) Place the relieving bogies as per matching mark on either side of the crane. NOTE: The relieving bogies are not interchangeable. d) Bring the relieving bogie into close proximity to the crane and apply hand brake. e) Using wishbone jacks of the relieving bogie jack the coupling beam (i.e. by hand pump

with lever position (I) and valve VI open as shown in fig. 3) to align the same with the pockets in carriage end castings. Use turn buckle whenever required to align the wishbone to the carriage end casting.

f) Release the carriage brake and move the crane very slowly to the relieving bogie. As soon as the coupling beam takes the lead of the pocket of end casting ( as shown in

fig.2) release the wishbone jack completely (i.e. by changing the lever position to position (2) as shown in fig. 3).

g) Travel the crane further so that the gaps between half-moon (RB25 & RB26) are minimum. If necessary load the relieving bogie a little bit as to achieve a gap of 2 to 3 mm approx. in both top and bottom half-moons (as shown in fig.).

WARNING: In no case should there be any sort of loading on wishbone jack after coupling beam has taken the lead of end casting pocket. This might damage the wishbone cylinder.

h) Engage the hydraulic coupling pins to lock the relieving bogie to the carriage. If required relieving bogies may have to load/unload during this operation.

i) Slew the superstructure in line to engage the slew lock pin. j) Derrick the jib down onto the match wagon trestle by pressing the override switch.

Slacken the derrick rope and lower 'A' frame until 'A' frame collapsed. k) Load the relieving bogies (by hand pump with lever position (2) and valve V2 open as

shown in fig. 3) until the centre casting locking pin slides into position by pushing on the handle and refit tumbler pin. Now close the valve V2 and bring the lever in neutral position (N).

l) Release the loading jack completely by opening the valve V2 slowly. m) Repeat these operations for the other end relieving bogie. n) Screw up all the blocking screws and refit the tumbler bogie. IMPORTANT: After coupling the relieving bogies and before travelling re-charge the spring

feed lubricators on the both relieving bogies and the carriage end castings with recommended lubricants.

o) Reconnect the coupling hoses between the relieving bogies and carriage. p) Coupling match wagon and ballast wagon to the crane. q) Re-connect the coupling hoses between the match wagon, ballast wagon and relieving

bogies. r) Depending on the type of hauling locomotives whether air braked or vacuum braked

please follow the operations laid down vide clauses 8.2, 8.3 & 8.4 of brake operating manual No. Z 1774 provided in operator's manual.


9. Precautions to be taken during 140 t. Crane Operation

(Gottwald New Design)

Before raising the Jib from Match-truck Axle Blocking operation must be done.

After lifting rear superstructure Gallows must be locked with main superstructure of Crane.

Uncouple Match-truck from crane (Screw-coupling as well as air brake hoses). Match-truck should be secured by the hand brake.

Before any movement of crane by its own power, operator must insure that travel gear has engaged & crane brakes in operational condition.

The crane should me made stable before carrying out further operations, according to position / Propping base either firm propping of crane (6 Mtr./ 5 Mtr. / 2.9 Mtr.) should be done or rail clamping must be carried out in case of free on rail operations.

Apply Parking brakes for maintaining rigidity of the crane.

Before lifting Jib it must be ensured that the crane is on straight track.

In operating area the operator as well as loading person should assess the track deviations of cants with jib in line with the track. Crane should be levelled by using outriggers(Propps).

The operator must be thoroughly acquainted with the load chart provided in the crane to assess the S.L.I. selection.

Special care to be taken during propping of jacks when the crane is to work on site. Proper Packing should be placed below Propp chair. For uniform load distribution Packing should be alternately perpendicular & parallel to the track. Packing should be checked for any sinking

The propping operation should be carried out until the wheel has just left the rail, There should be absolute no gap between in-rigger and out-rigger.

The load should properly secured and it should be lifted slowly just above the ground and hold it there. Propping should checked again for sinking.

If the crane is to be moved to another position, the propps should be raised outrigger should be retracted.

This crane is unsuitable on super-elevated track in free on rail operation with counterweight operation.

Swinging load is dangerous and should be avoided.
