Operating Manual

Work Operation 3.1 P-1/2

PREPARATION Prior to every work operation establish the

- size of the load to be lifted - required radius - required working cycle

(hook height, slewing range, traveling the load) Moreover dependent on job site

- site conditions for propping - ground conditions in outrigger pad area

Subsequently with the aid of the lifting chart check the

- admissibility of Job site and determine the required

- counterweight combination and the

- type of outrigger propping required.

Finally the

- max. outrigger loadings to be expected are to be established with the aid of the following chart the required size of the

- ground distribution pads can be established.

PERMISSIBLE GROUND FORCES

Natural ground 500- 600 kN/ sq.m. Medium sand, firm clay, mud and gravel 400 kN/ sq.m. Fine sand, firm 150 kN/ sq.m. PERMISSABLE WHEEL LOADS The max. Permissible wheel load by propped operation, P = 350 kN/wheel



Work Operation 3.1 P-2/2

CHECK LIST Prior to every work operation resp. after 10 hours operation the following points are to he checked: Prior to starting the diesel engine:

- Engine oil level - Pump transfer box oil level - Coolant level - Hydraulic oil supply - Check, if all stop slide valves on oil tank are opened. - Fuel supply - Air pressure oilier supply - Drain all air supply tanks - Check fuel supply and auxiliary unit oil level After starting the diesel engine: - Engine oil pressure - Air filter pollution indicator - Air pressure gauge - Hydraulic oil filter pollution indicator** - Generator charging current - Visible check for leaks in the oil - fuel and water circuits

** Due to low oil temperatures the possibility exists, that initially the gauge indicators a

higher pressure than 3 bar and consequently a change of filter is required.

In this case check the gauge once again after the operating temperature of the oil has been reached. The reading now shown is decisive for the grade of pollution

Couple/Uncouple the Match Truck 4.1.1 P-1/1

Description The match truck serves in the train formation to store and to protect the boom as the boom protrudes beyond the buffer. Should a match truck without a handbrake arrangement be used, the match truck must be underpinned with drag shoes when it is parked. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! Use caution in the area between the crane and the match truck. Standing between crane and match truck is prohibited during in and out! Danger of being crushed! Danger of accidents! Operating Instructions The following procedures are applicable for coupling the match truck to and uncoupling the match truck from the crane as well as coupling the crane or match truck to and uncoupling the crane or match truck from other wagons in the train formation. 1. To couple:

Travel the crane to the match truck buffer. Note: Please maintain the following work sequence:

• Connect the hook • Secure the crane and the match truck against rolling according to regulations • Connect the brake air pressure or vacuum brake system coupling heads • Air pressure brake system only: Open the stops for the brake air pressure • If necessary, remove drag shoes • Release the handbrake

2. To Uncouple:

It is assumed that the match truck remains at the uncoupling site and the crane travels to job site.

Note: Please maintain the following work sequence: • Secure the crane against rolling according to regulations. • Apply the match truck handbrake and, if necessary, underpin with drag shoes. • Air pressure brake system only: Close the stops cocks for the brake air pressure. • Release the brake air pressure or vacuum brake hose. • Disconnect the train hook.



Suspension Blocking Cylinders / Engage /Disengage Travel Gear 4.1.2 P-1/1

Item No. 2 Item No. 1

Description The spring deflection on the wheel set springs is blocked via hydraulic cylinders during crane and travel operations. When the crane is being hauled in train formation, the suspension spring block is released. The travel gear must be disengaged when the crane is being hauled in train formation. The change –over for “ engage/disengage travel gear” is coupled to the suspension spring blocking as the suspension spring blocking is released for hauling in train formation. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! Caution – Change –over may only be carried out when the crane is at a standstill! Secure the crane according to regulations against rolling. Caution! - The condition of the suspension blocking cylinders must be checked after changeover, i.e. it must be checked as to whether the suspension blocking cylinders have been engaged or disengaged.

Operating Instructions The changeover for the suspension blocking cylinders is located on the undercarriage. It is coupled to the function engage/ disengages travel gear. 1. Crane and travel operations: To engage travel gear / switch on suspension blocking: * Suspension blocking “ON” – Place lever (Item 1) in downward position. * The indicator (Item 2) is red.

2. Hauling operation in train formation: To disengage travel gear /switch off suspension blocking: * Suspension blocking “OFF” Place lever (Item 1) in upright position. * The indicator (item 2) is green.



Transport Position 4.1.3 P-1/1

Description Transport position is to be understood as the position specified for the crane when it is being hauled in train formation.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! Conveying persons or loads in the customary fashion is prohibited!

Operating Instructions After derigging the crane, when the boom has been properly locked in the trestle and gallows with’ A’ frame lowered in position, outrigger beam locked, the following operations should be done before hauling the crane. 1. The crane wagon is coupled to the match truck. 2. The 6T, 14T and 18T counterweights are stored on the match truck and 5.2 T

counterweight on the undercarriage is placed on the cab side and secured. 3. The boom is stored on and locked to the match truck. 4. The ropes are slack. 5. The hook gear is stored properly on the match truck.

6. The travel gear are disengaged and suspension blocking is switched off. 7. The outrigger pads are stored in their mountings on the match truck. 8. The outrigger cylinders have been retracted to their retainers and the

outrigger beams have been swung in and secured. 9. The parking brake has been released. 10. The braking system is set to the corresponding brake system

(vacuum/air pressure).

Conveyance in both travel directions is permissible.



Brake System 4.1.4 P-1/3

Description The crane is fitted with a dual brake system. The crane can be operated with the air pressure brake system or the vacuum brake system. Switchover is carried out by means of two levers, which are located on both sides of the cranes. In addition, the crane has a parking brake with a quick-release device, which can be controlled independently of the train brake system by means of air pressure or the vacuum system. When leaving the crane and in every case when the diesel engine is not running, the parking brake must be applied. On track with more than a 3% gradient additional wedges should be used to protect the crane from rolling. The respective brake condition (opened, closed) is signaled by a side-mounted indicator device. The status of the brakes can be read off via the corresponding indicators (red and green). The spring –loaded cylinders also have a mechanical emergency release device which can be actuated by means of Bowden cables on the axles. The crane has two types of parking brakes.

a) Hyd. Parking Brake – It is provided in Crane No. 142032 to 142043 & 143001 to 143002.

By turning the parking brake hand wheel the brake jaws will be closed by means of a piston pump and additional hydraulic cylinders on each brake cylinder per axle

b) Pneumatic Parking Brake- It is provided in Crane No. 143003 to 143010.

Pneu. Parking brake actuates by means of a system comprises a separate air reservoir, valves & parking brake actuation lever fitted in undercarriage

Caution! – If the emergency release device is used, you must pressurize the brake system with air pressure before you can be begin a new braking procedure.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! Caution! – Please note that the brake system must be pressurized before a new braking procedure can be carried out when the Bowden cables have been activated. Prior to releasing the parking brake, start up the crane and secure via the service brake.

On exiting the crane, always apply (switch on) the parking brake. Caution! – Only begin travel operation when the parking brake has been completely released!-

It is prohibited to begin travel when the brake is still on. Operating Instructions

1. To apply parking brake: (Figure’ A’) * Place the parking brake lever (Item 1) to the “On” position. The “parking brake” indicator

(Item 6) is red.

To release parking brake: * Place the parking brake lever (Item 1) to the “Off” position. The “braking brake”

indicator (Item 2) is green.



Brake System 4.1.4 P-2/3 2. To release the brake quickly:

The brake has a handle (Item 3) for quick-release. The quick-release acts directly on the

brake valve during operation of the air pressure system or on the vacuum control valve during vacuum operation:

To operate the quick-release for the air pressure system:

• Pull out the handle once until the brake has been completely released (opened). To operate the quick-release for the vacuum system: • Pull out the handle once until the vacuum has been completely equalized.

3. To switch the brake system from air pressure to vacuum:

Note: The switch –over devices for the air pressure and vacuum systems are coupled to

each other mechanically, i.e. when the air pressure brake system is switched on, the vacuum brake system is switched off automatically and vice versa. Generally, the following applies: Lever in horizontal position: Brake “ON”, Lever in vertical position Brake “OFF.

It is also possible to switch off both brake systems simultaneously. Caution: danger of the crane rolling – secure the crane without fail using drag shoes.

1. To switch on the air pressure brake:

* Set the air pressure brake (Item 4) to “On”. The “service brake” indicator (Item 6) is red.

2. To switch off air pressure brake: * Set the air pressure brake (Item 4) to “Off”. The “service brake” indicator (Item 2) is green.

3. To switch on the vacuum brake: Set the vacuum brake (Item 5) to “On”. The “service brake” indicator (Item 6) is red.

4. To switch off the vacuum brake: * Set the vacuum brake (Item 5) to “Off”. The “service brake” indicator (Item 2) is green.

5 To switch off the service brake: Both brake system can be switched off:

* Set the levers (Item 4 and 5) to “Off”. The “service brake” indicator (Item 2) is green.

6 Mechanical emergency release device of the spring-loaded cylinders (not illustrated):



Brake System 4.1.4 P-3/3

Caution! – Once the Bowden cables have been actuated, the crane is without brakes until the brake have been re-pressurized. Danger of accidents! The mechanical emergency quick-release device is actuated via 6 Bowden cables on the bogies. The spring-loaded brake is not active until sufficient pressure is available. The pressure required can be generated via the compressor on the diesel engine or the air pressure compressors in the undercarriage. When the pressure required is to be generated during traveling in an air undercarriage to “released” position. Otherwise the parking brake closes automatically when the activating pressure has been reached. When the pressure is set in a vacuum brake operated train, the air supply for activating the spring-loaded and service must be checked prior to departure, as no braking function is possible until the pressure has been generated via the axle compressors. Filling only the main airline is not sufficient to activate the brake system (min.7.5 bar) but it is enough to make the service brake functional. Parking the crane rake is released is prohibited. Danger of the crane rolling! Secure the crane by means of drag shoes or the like. To actuate the emergency quick-release device: * Pull the Bowden cables on the bogies to release the spring –loaded cylinders.

Danger of engine damage through fuel running in from the fuel tank after the engine has been switched off.



Accelerator 4.4.2 P-1/1 Accelerator

Description The diesel engine speed is regulated by means of the foot-operated pedal for the accelerator. Thus, the speed can be adjusted smoothly for all travel and crane motions.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ! Caution! - Never store objects in the cab foot area. Any object in this area could slide below or

on the foot-operated pedals and cause a dangerous situation! Caution! -Only start travel operation when the parking brake has been completely released! - Do

not begin to travel when the crane brake is applied.


The end speeds for the working motions are not only depending on how the foot-operated pedal is activated, but also on what speed has been selected via the respective control lever.

To increase speed : Depress the foot-operated at the front To decrease speed : Release the foot –pedal.



Travel Operation 4.5

4.5.1 Travel Forward / In Reverse 4.5.2 Brake



Travel Forward/ In Reverse 4.5.1 P-1/2

Description The crane has a traction gear switch to change travel direction. This means that the travel lever motion always corresponds to the current sitting position. Thus, if the superstructure is rotated on the undercarriage, the travel lever motion is reversed when the superstructure is at approx 90 degree to the undercarriage.


Caution! - The crane may only be traveled when the superstructure is in longitudinal position. Rotating the superstructure during travel or travel with the superstructure in transverse position is prohibited! Reverse travel direction! On exiting the crane, always apply the parking brake. Caution! -Only start travel operation when the parking brake has been completely released! - Do not begin to travel when the crane brake is applied. Operating Instructions The crane may travel forwards or in reverse with or without load. The travel control lever is assigned the double function “Travel forwards/ reverse.” (See Figure’ A’) To travel forward: Move the travel lever forward to travel forward and to regulate the speed. Full travel speed can only be reached when the diesel engine output is at its fullest, i.e. when the accelerator pedal is pressed to the floor. To travel in reverse: Pull back the travel lever to travel in reverse and to regulate the speed. Full travel speed can only be reached when the diesel engine output is at its fullest, i.e., when the gas pedal is pressed to the floor.

Brake 4.5.2 P-1/1


Description Brake Pedal The crane is fitted with an air pressure brake system. As soon as the brake pedal is activated, the travel drive idles automatically.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! Caution! In particular when the crane is traveled with load, the braking motion must be carried out smoothly. Any sudden or abrupt braking causes the load to swing dangerously! Caution! When the parking brake has been activated, renewed braking action cannot be carried out until the brake system has been pressurized with air pressure. Prior to releasing the parking brake, start up the crane and secure via the service brake. On exiting the crane, always apply the parking brake. Caution! Only start travel operation when the parking brake has been completely released! - Do not begin to travel when the crane brake is applied. Operating Instructions To brake the crane, your foot must not be on the gas pedal so that the diesel engine idles. Then gently depress the brake pedal. At the same time, release the travel control lever. Always check the air pressure during brake operation. A respective pressure gauge is mounted on the left hand panel for this purpose. The air pressure must be a approx. 6 bar to 7 bar.

Slew Right/ Left 4.6.1 P-1/2

Description By means of the slew gear, the superstructure can be infinitely variably rotated 360 degree on the undercarriage. The superstructure can be slewed when the crane is propped with or without load. Slewing during travel is prohibited – Reverse travel direction The slewing gear is operated via the control lever in the cab. (See Figure’ B’)

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ! During crane operation, always ensure that no person or obstacles are in the working or danger

zones.

Caution! - Observe the load indicator! In the event the load indicator or safe load indicator fail, crane operation must not be started or must be stopped immediately! Use caution when crane work is being carried out on adjacent tracks! Increased danger of accidents! Operating Instructions When work is carried out on adjacent tracks or near other obstacles, use caution, as there is a danger of the crane colliding with passing trains or other obstacles. The slewing motion corresponds to lever motion. To slew left: * Move the control lever to the left. To slew to the right: * Move the control lever to the right. Note: When the control lever is released, the lever returns to center position. The slewing motion

is limited and switched off by the safe load indicator in accordance with the lifting capacity charts. Only slewing in the opposite direction is then possible to reduce the load moment.

Derrick In / Out 4.6.2 P-1/2

Description The boom position can be altered by means of the derricking gear. The winch, the rope drum, gearbox and drive assembly are located on the superstructure. When the boom is derricked out, the derricking gear uncoils the rope and moves the boom into its greatest radius. When the boom is derricked in, the derricking gear coils the rope and moves the boom into steepest position. Both end positions are monitored by means of the limit switches, which switch off operation automatically when the boom reaches the end positions.

For the rigging purposes, switching on the boom bridging key must bridge the end switch-off position of the normal working range. The end positions (ultimate end positions) in rigging operation are also monitored by limit switches, which switch off operation automatically when the boom reaches the end positions. The boom position is sensed via the angle sensor. This data forms the basis for the lifting capacity charts. The derricking gear is operated by means of the control lever in the cab. ( See Figure’ A’)

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ! During crane operation, always ensure that no persons or obstacles are in the working or danger

zones. Watch for train traffic on adjacent tracks- Danger of Accidents! Do not stand or move below suspended loads – Mortal danger! Caution!- observe the load indicator! In the event the load indicator or safe load indicator failure, crane operation must not be started or must be stopped immediately! The crane may only be propped at the propping bases indicated in the Technical Data. The ground must withstand the propping pressures. Use caution near the overhead lines- Mortal danger!

Keep out of slewing range! Loads must be lifted vertically. Diagonal pull is prohibited. The limit switches may only be bridged for rigging and not other purposes! During crane operation, bridging the boom position limit switches is prohibited! Rigging must also be carried out in connection with a competent banks man.


When work is carried out near bridges, masts and overhead lines, the working height is restricted as otherwise there is a danger of the boom colliding with the overhead lines – Use a banks man! The control lever for the derricking motion is a combined function lever for the functions “slew right/ left and “derrick in /out”. To derrick in: • Pull back control lever. To derrick out: • Move control lever forward. Note: When the control lever is released, it returns to center position.

PAT System 4.7.1 P-1/8

Figure ’A’ Figure ’B’

Description

The PAT DS 350 load moment indicator system consists of a central micro processor unit, display operator’s console, and angle sensor and force transducer (Figure ’A’) .

The system operates on the principle of reference/real comparison. The real values resulting from the force measurement is compared with the reference data stored in the central processor memory and evaluated in the micro processor. When limits are exceeded, an overload warning signal is generated at the display and operator’s console.

The firm data regarding the crane, such as capacity charts, boom weights, centers of gravity and dimensions are stored in memory chips in the central processor unit. This firm data is the reference information used to calculate the overload conditions. System operation is controlled by the angle sensor functioning automatically or by manual devices such as switches in the operator console.

The boom angle is registered by the angle sensor mounted on the boom. The crane operator’s console has analog displays for reference value, real value and radius and a digital display for the error code. The crane load is measured by force transducers attached to the boom hoist unit, for main boom.

In crane No. 143001 to 143004 SLI of Amrita Lakshmi Electronics and in Crane No. 143005 to 143010 SLI of Mechanica Systems Pvt Ltd. Pune, has been fitted (Figure ’B’). For this refer to the manual of these suppliers.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! While the function of the load moment indicator is to alert the operator of approaching overload conditions, errors are possible in the functioning of this load moment indicator and it is impossible to warn of all possible dangers. The operator is solely responsible for the safe operation of the crane.




CONTROL IDENTIFICATION The figure illustrates the controls and displays of DS 350 load moment indicator. The numbers on the illustration correspond to the numbers in the following list, which describes the function of each control.

3 4 8 5

6 7 2 1

1. OVERLOAD LIGHT AND ‘AUDIBLE ALARM’ SWITCH This red luminous key will light when the load on the crane is in excess of 100% of the

crane rating. Pressing this key allows the audible alarm to be silenced. When leaving the overload condition, this silencing is effected automatically.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! The audible alarm must not be silenced during crane operation, as the operator may not be alerted by the red warning light alone, especially in bright sunlight.




2. PREWARNING LIGHT

This yellow light will light when the load on the crane is between 90% of the crane rating, indicating that an overload condition is approaching.

3. REFERENCE VALUE DISPLAY

This analog display shows the share of the greatest permissible moment of the operating mode adjusted in each case by which the crane may be loaded. This display varies with the changes of the boom position.

4. REAL VALUE DISPLAY

This analog display shows the share of the greatest permissible moment of the operating mode adjusted in each case by which the crane is loaded. Display represents an increasing utilization of the crane rating. The crane rating has been fully utilized once the two needles are in the same position and the overload lamp (1) lights up.

5. RADIUS DISPLAY

This analog display indicates the operating radius of the main hoist (left hand scale) and the auxiliary hoist (right hand scale.)

6. ERROR CODE DISPLAY

In the event of a malfunction, this digital display shows an error code indicating the crane of the failure (see TROUBLESHOOTING). This display is blank in normal operation.

7. OPERATING MODE SWITCH

This rotary switch serves for setting the safe load indicator to the operating configuration (Outrigger position) of the crane.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

! Setting the operating mode switch must be done with utmost care since an incorrect setting of the operating configuration of the crane may result in dangerous overload conditions for the crane. 8. COUNTERWEIGHT DISPLAY

These lamps automatically indicate the counterweight used. The meaning of the individual counterweight numbers is outlined in the manual of the crane.

The load curves valid in each case are automatically selected by the safe load indicator.



PAT System 4.7.1 P-4/8 PRE – OPERATION INSPECTION 1. Check the cables, plugs and sockets connecting the various parts of the system for physical

damage. Replace damage parts. 2. Check force transducer, angle sensors for boom and slewing for any physical damage.

3. Check that the display of the operating radius of the crane agrees with the actual radius.

4. Check that the display of the slewing angle agrees with the actual slewing angle. 5. The operator should select the correct mode of the OPERATION MODE SWITCH. After

this setting, the operation of the Load Moment Indicator is fully automated. The operator must be thoroughly familiar with all controls of the Load Moment Indicator.

6. Check the COUNTERWEIGHT DISPLAY indicates correct counterweights used. If the

indication is wrong the operator must get the fault rectified before starting crane operation.

OPERATION After being properly set, the operation of the load moment indicator is fully automated. Therefore, the operator must be thoroughly familiar with all controls of the load moment indicator and he must properly set each switch before operating the crane. All setting must be checked by lifting a load of known weight and comparing the load to the information displayed on the load moment indicator.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Description With the mode selector switch in position 7 the machine status display will indicate a code which identifies the system malfunction. The error codes listed in the Malfunction Table will identify various errors which can occur with the load moment indicator .Following the Malfunction Table are pages which explain each fault and describes the action which should be taken to correct the fault. Faults within the electronic microprocessor must be repaired by trained service personnel.

load to be lifted, (ii) required radius and (iii) required working cycle eg. Hook height, Slewing range, Space for Traveling the load etc. These should be in conformation with the load chart and with reference to the site condition for propping.

b) All stop valves for Hyd. Lines should be opened before starting the engine.

Do not leave any of the stop valves closed.

The pumps may get damaged or the Hyd. System will burst.

c) Before starting the engine check for Hyd. Oil, Fuel Oil, Engine Lub oil, Radiator Water level, Oil level in all the gearboxes and battery water level.

Do not allow the Hyd. Level to go below the baffle plate level.

Hyd. Pump may be affected.




Sl.No


not followed d) After starting the engine, Check Engine lub

oil pressure and battery charging current.

e) Check for pilot pressure, it must be 30 bars. f) Check for AIR pressure, it should like

between 6.5 –7.5 bars. Do not leave any air leakage in the system.

Air braking will be difficult.

3 AXLE BLOCKING

a) Check for Axle blocking pressure after giving line to Undercarriage, through preselector switch. It should be 240 bars.

Do not allow even slight leakage in the pipe of axle blocking cylinder.

This will disturb the stability of the crane.

b) Ensure engagement of the traveling gear. c) Ensure application of brake confirmed by

the “RED” indication.

4 BOOM ERECTION: a) Check for gallows frame fully lifted by

giving line to Counter weight Gallows through pre-selector switch.

b) Deput 2 staff to go up and watch the reeving and unreeving of the derrick wire rope.

c) Derrick “IN” until boom heels sit on the PINs.

d) Secure “A” frame pin while the “A” frame is fully lifted.

Do not leave “A” legs unlocked.

The “A” frame may fall down causing accident.

e) Remove boom lock from the jib trestle. f) Raise boom cautiously as per usual practice. 5 PROPPING THE CRANE : a) Set the propping pads properly on ground

by strengthening the ground. Deput one staff on each prop. to watch its movement.

Do not prop the crane on loose ground in any case

The prop may sink causing major accident eg. Toppling of crane.

b) Check the level of the crane by spirit level.

6 COUNTERWEIGHT a) Select the total counterweight with proper

assessment of load, in consultation with the load chart.

b) Switch on boom bridging key. 5-meter limit switch should remain activated.




Sl.No


not followed c) Switch off key, which bridges safe load

indicator. The crane should not be allowed to slew in this condition.

Do not slew the crane under these conditions.

d) Pick up the CWT. One by one to have desired formation.

e) For only free on Rail condition 5.2 T CWT to be kept on chassis and 24 T on the gallows, if STD wt. formation is to be used.

f) For half propped & full propped condition, the CWT combination for 29.2 T is (5.2 T+ 6 T + 18 T). For heavy duty counterweight 43.2 T (5.2 T+ 6 T+ 14 T + 18 T) on gallows frame.

g) Switch on S.L.I. key to bring the computer safely system back in the circuit. Check the correct mode of stability.

h) Inter lock the CWT Sections and boom out to 8 m radius. Then slew the superstructure by 180 deg.

Don’t interlock the CWT without putting proper spacers in between the links.

CWT lifting may cause problem.

i) Engage the CWT on the gallows frames. j) Switch on boom key switch, so that 5.5 mm

limit switch is in circuit.

k) Check if safe load indicator is in operation l) Correct mode of stabilization is set on the

selector switch of SLI system Crane may get

damaged if the crane is on “Free on Rail” but selector switch is set to “ propped condition”

m) Axle blocking pressure should be checked by a nominated person. It should be recharged to 240 bar, if required.

n) After fixing CWT on the crane, the crane should not be slewed unless correct propping base is selected on the mode selector on the display unit of the PAT system.

o) Load chart affixed inside the cabin should be followed in toto.

Do not miss to consult load chart in any condition of working.

The current may be subjected to unsafe working.




Sl.No


not followed p) After gallows operation or axle blocking

operation preselector switch for oil transmission should be brought “O” position

q) Before starting work make sure that computer override key and boom override key are switched to working position.

r) Ensure CWT indicating lamps indicates correct CWT on gallows, when in operation.

s) Manually operated modes switch showing correct outrigger basis is operational.

7 OPERATION: a) Ensure proper signaling to the crane driver.

Driver should also ensure cross- checking the signal by ground staff with condition of load.

b) Ensure firm and proper use of wire ropes and chains.

Don’t put load on the rope / lifting tackle.

c) Avoid jerk during operation. Pendulum motion of load not permitted. Avoid diagonal pull of the load.

Don’t pull loads which are stuck in the ground unless it is ensured that it will not offer resistance beyond the capabilities of the crane.

d) Take care of high wind forces on the boom as it is dangerous.

e) Do watch for trend of subsoil caving by watching the prop level and spirit level of the under frame of the crane. Avoid subsoil cave-in.

Lifting of load through Derricking “IN” should be avoided to the possible extent.

8 DERIGGING THE CRANE: a) Check Axle blocking pressure to 240 bar. b) Unload Cwt. On the match Truck c) Leave 5.2 Cwt on the chassis in the

direction of match truck.

d) Boom out to 16 mm radius. At this point derricking out will be cut off by 16 m limit switch and PAT.

e Switch “ON” boom over bridge key. f) Switch “ON” computer over bridge key.




Sl.No

DOs DON’Ts Repercussion if DOs/DON’Ts are not

followed i) Continue to boom down causing hook

block incline forward.

j) Boom down so that boom head is approx. 40 cms higher than the rest position.

k) Travel crane until boom rest pin matches with the recess in boom rest.

l) Boom down until boom slides fully into the boom rest to the lock position.

m) At this point, lock the boom in the boom rest

n Raise Cwt gallows to full height. o) Fasten the “A” Frame hind bottom leg

with Cwt gallows by link rope arrangement.

p) Remove pins from “A” Frame. q) Boom out to give small amount of slack

in derrick ropes. Do not fold crane without opening out the pin lock from “A” frame legs.

Gallows frame may be damaged.

r) Lower Cwt gallows which will result in “A” frame going over the centre, which will facilitate further fold.

s) Raise gallows fully. t) Remove link rope arrangement. u) Further derrick out till “A” frame front

rests on the top of raised gallows. Now simultaneously derrick out and lower gallows till gallows sit on their desired position on super structure.

v) Continue to derrick “OUT” while lowering “A” frame arms into locking rest position on crane chassis.

Do not forget to book staff for watching the reeving/ unreeving of ropes.

Wire rope may be damaged if entrapped in between the drum and the frame.

w) Derrick out until the ropes are slack over the operator’s cab. This derricking out should be restructed by “minimum number of turns on drum” limit switch ( the setting should be for slackness just adequate to negotiate designed track curve)



DOs and DON’Ts for Operation 5 P-6/6 Sl.No


not followed 9 PREPARING CRANE FOR TRANSPORT a) Parking brake “OFF” b) Brake hoses should be connected as per the

requirement. Brake change over lever of Match Truck and Brake handle in the crane under carriage to be set as per requirement.

c) Axle blocking released. d) Release parking brake in the last when the crane

is going to be formed in train order. Do not forget releasing brake.
