1 Notes on Safety
Liebherr cranes are designed to the current state of technology and all recognised safety-technical
regulations. Nevertheless, if utilisation is not carried out properly, danger to life and limb of the ope-
rator or to a third party, or impairment of the crane of other tangible assets could be resulted.
In order that danger may be avoided, Liebherr cranes may only be used:
– for its intended use.
– under the observation of the complete crane documentation
– under observation of the local, valid guidelines for accident-prevention.
– in a safety-technical sound condition.
Liebherr cranes may only be used for the lifting and lowering, as well as horizontal transport, of loads
freely suspended from the load hook. Loads may only be lifted from firm ground. The crane may not
exceed the maximum load specified in the respective lod diagram. The crane may only be erected
and operated in accordance with the specifications in the operating instructions. Any other use, or
excessive use, is not considered intended use.
The following in particular are prohibited :
– Pulling off fixed loads.
– Pulling diagonally or dragging of loads.
– Transporting of persons with the load or the load carrying gear.
– Increasing the weight of loads which have already been lifted.
– The utilisation of unsuitable ropes which do not comply with the specifications in the operating in-
structions.
– Utilisation of parts other than original crane parts.
– Bridging and modifying the setting of limit switches.
– Modifying the crane configuration which is described in these operating instructions.
– The mounting of advertising surfaces, accessories or modifications without express authorisation
of the manufacturer.
– Non-adherence to guidelines specific to the respective crane type. See chapter Operation: „Ope-
rating instructions“.
Liability of the manufacturer becomes null and void for damage which occurs as a result of any of the
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11
Operation, maintenance and inspection may only be carried out by a trained crane operator.
Erection, dismantling and repair tasks may only be carried out by qualified, specialist personnel.
Tasks to the electrical equipment of the crane may only be carried out by an electrical specialist in
accordance with the electrotechnical regulations.
Only personnel with special knowledge and experience of hydraulics may carry out tasks to the hy-
draulic devices.
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11

● Protective conductor rails in the switching station for incoming and outgoing protective
earths.
A protective conductor is carried along as an additional wire in all lines to the electrical
operating equipment.
● Single-phase control transformer with electrically insulated coils for feed of the control
circuit.
The control transformer is connected to two outer conductors on the primary side. On the
secondary side, one control phase is earthed and the second control phase features one
line protection switch per control circuit. The secondary side of the control transformer
thus forms a TN-C-system. The line protection switches are effective as a protective
measure for indirect contacts.

Components
Drive: Squirrel-cage motor with KEB frequency converter (stepless control lever).
The output frequency of the frequency converter, and thus the speed of the trolley travel gear
motor can be steplessly and continuously regulated with the control lever from approx. 2.5
Hz (KEB) in the start position up to approx. 75 Hz. For resulting speeds, see the operating
instructions for the crane operator, "Technical data, trolley travel gear".
Load-dependent speed reduction for the trolley travel gear with PLC-control:
The maximum speed for the trolley travel gear is adapted to the corresponding load. Thus,
the trolley travel gear is automatically assigned the correct maximum speed upon full
deflection of the respective control lever.
Example: A crane with maximum load can still be operated with a maximum 33% of its
maximum speed.
The drive is braked by returning the control lever back into the neutral position. If the output
frequency of 2.5 Hz (KEB) is fallen short of, the drive is shut down and the mechanical brake
is engaged.
Drive: Squirrel-cage motor with KEB frequency converter (stepless control lever).
The output frequency of the frequency converter, and thus the speed of the slewing gear
motor can be steplessly and continuously regulated with the control lever from approx. 2.5
Hz (KEB) in the start position up to approx. 120 Hz. For resulting speeds, see the operating
instructions for the crane operator, "Technical data, slewing gear".
When initiating movement, the control lever must be deflected to an extent that ensures only
slow movement of the jib. Load conditions and weather conditions are always influential for
this action.
See the operating instructions for the crane operator, "Wind load control"
When initiating movement and countering, execute the control lever stages slowly
to ensure that the load does not begin oscillating.
When countering, do not pull the control lever suddenly in the opposite direction.

For the installation of a radio remote-control, the "Radio" interface module must be mounted in
switchgear cabinet S1. The "Radio" interface module is connected with the crane control (PLC)
via terminal strip X1 and a sensor plug.
See chapter 18 Appendix "Radio interface module".
Installation of radio receiver:
Slewing platform
For the installation of a remote data transfer (DFÜ), the "DFÜ" assembly with radio antenna and
a circuit breaker (16A) must be mounted in switchgear cabinet S1. Following installation of the
"DFÜ" assembly, a valid SIM card with enabled CSD-data service must be inserted in the
MODEM.
See chapter 18 Appendix "DFÜ assembly".
See Litronic handbook, chapter 1.1.4 System summary: Litronic crane control.
The "LIKOM" software package including MODEM is available as an option for the "DFÜ"
assembly.
For the DFÜ connections through a telephone line or wireless (mobile phone), the Liebherr
crane must be equipped with a "DFÜ" assembly. A standard personal computer (PC with
Windows operating system) with "LIKOM" software package and featuring a respectively
configured modem connection serves as a communication partner.
LIKOM is a terminal program for data exchange between a personal computer (PC) and the
machine control (PLC) of a Liebherr tower crane. All data is transmitted and received via a serial
interface between PC and PLC control. The data received from the PC is collected in the
LIKOM, represented on the display screen and if necessary, stored on a storage medium (hard
drive, ...).
For further information regarding the DFÜ, refer to the LIKOM handbook.

For the installation of an anti-collision system (AKS), the AKS interface module and a slewing
angle sensor must be installed in the crane. Following installation of the AKS control , the
optional "AKS" must be enabled in the crane control (➜ EMS).
See chapter 18 Appendix "AKS interface module".
See Litronic handbook, chapter 2.2.8.9 Activating and deactivating the anti-collision system.
The optional "AKS" is deactivated as standard (not active). Upon activation, the crane control
(during normal operation) detects the connected AKS network (active = responds to the signals
of the AKS). If the AKS network is not detected, all drives become blocked and the E406 error
message appears in the EMS.

Instruction Manual Corner pressures, foundation loadings and ballast
The information obtained in this chapter pertains in particular to stability of the crane. The corner
pressure tables also include essential data. As well as obtaining information regarding the pressures
which the support points are subjected to, it is also possible to determine whether the foundation soil
is suitable for erection of the crane. Furthermore, details of which central ballast is necessary for the
respective crane configurations are prescribed, as well as correct selection of the counter-ballast. If
the crane is to be erected on foundation anchors, the appropriate data allowing correct dimensioning
of the foundation can be obtained from the foundation loading tables.
The corner pressures, foundation loadings and ballast data only apply for the crane configu-
ration specified! For further information, see: Appendix Corner pressures, foundation loa-
dings and ballast data!
Corner pressures, foundation loadings and ballast data for special configurations can be acquired
upon request from Liebherr-Werk Biberach GmbH, Statics Department.
LBC/en/01/Ausgabe: 07.11
Risk of accident!
Important information!
Risk of injury!
Warning!
Risk of accident! Ensure compatibility of the Component list!
The static data may only be used if the crane erection corresponds with the configuration described,
and if the components being used have been selected in observation of the "Component
compatability list".
► For further information, see: Static data ›Component compatibility list‹.
Warning!
The foundation loadings are characteristic loads and do not include dynamic factors on dead weight
and hoist load.
Warning!
Risk of accident! Stability of the crane!
► Subsequent installation or removal of the climbing equipment affects stability of the crane, and
thus the resulting foundation loadings. Under these conditions, therefore, both foundation loading
tables "Foundation loadings with climbing equipment" and "Foundation loadings without climbing
equipment" should be observed as early as the application planning stage, and the respective,
more unfavourable values taken into account.
Warning!
For certain jib lengths, the crane cannot turn freely in the wind without the installation of an additional
wind sail.
► Install wind sails as required. For further information, see: Instruction manual, chapter ‘Erection’.
0.1.2. Notes
– Sheet 2 of 2
* Warning!
At this hook height, the climbing equipment must be lowered after erection!
xx Warning!
At this hook height, switching over to the LM2 load curve is not permissible!
► For further information, see: "Operating manual for the crane operator", "Control desk".
o
Warning!
At this hook height, mounting of a cabin is not permissible!
► Possible "without cab" only.
@
Warning!
At this hook height, operation with climbing tower section is not permissible!
► The climbing tower section must be replaced with a standard tower section.

4.1.4 Counterballast
2 / 4 - fall operation
Danger !
Incorrect selection of the counterballast blocks jeopardises stability of the crane. Different counter-
weights are required depending on configuration of the crane. Specifications for the counterweights
in featured in the table as follows apply for standard configu-ration of the free-standing crane (stan-
dard hook heights and standard jib lengths). For further information, see: the charts regarding cor-
ner pressures and foundation reaction forces.
X Select the counterballast blocks. See following tables.
X For the 82.1 m and 76.3 m jib lengths, install one ballast block A in the counter-jib before
installing jib section 2..
X The last ballast block A must only be removed from the counter-jib after removing jib section 2
of the 82.1 m or 76.3 m jib.
For further information, see: chapter Erection in the Instruction Manual.
Warning!
Improper manufacture of the counterballast blocks jeopardises stability of the crane. Production
must be resulted to Liebherr specifications. For further information, see Structural drawings for
counterballast blocks. It is imperative that the weight of the counterballast blocks are adhered to.
Density of reinforced concrete 2.4 t/m3.
X Weight the counterballast blocks prior to assembly.
Note
A wind sail of approx. 13.5 m² must be installed in the jib head of the 41.5 m jib.
For every special application of the crane with greater special hook heights (additional weight of the
hoist rope), or special armaments of the counter-jib (auxiliary winch, etc.) or jib (equipment etc.),
which could effect the weight of the crane components, please consult the Statics Department, Lieb-
herr-Werk Biberach GmbH for counterweight specifications and, if necessary, request delivery of a
copy.

Instruction Manual Preparing for application of the crane
This chapter helps you to plan the application for which the crane is to be used. A conscientious prep-
aration of the building site is essential for safe operation of the crane. Information can be obtained
here regarding which measures must be observed before commencing crane erection. The following
data allows you the opportunity to prepare the foundation and the rail tracks, in order that you may
begin erection of the crane immediately after it is delivered. Note also the Corner pressures, foun-
dation loadings and ballast data section in the handbook.
LBC/en/01/Ausgabe: 07.11
Plan the application of the crane so that all safe distances can be maintained in every respective situ-
ation.
Danger!
Contact with high-voltage electric power cables can lead to fatalities for the crane operator and per-
sons within immediate proximity of the crane.
X A safe distance in accordance wit the country-specific regulations must be maintained from high-
voltag electric power cables (for Germany: DIN 57105 / VDE 0105). Request the rate of voltage
at the electric supply company.
X If it is not possible to maintain this safe distance, the cables must be rendered voltage-free. This
condition must be guaranteed for the duration of operation.
Fig. 5-1 Maintain a safe distance from high-voltage electric power cables
Warning!
Danger of crushing due to moving crane parts.
A safe distance of 0.5 m must be maintained between moving crane parts (e.g. rail-going crane
base) and parts in the immediate vicinity.
X If this safe distance can not be maintained, cordon off the danger area.
Fig. 5-3 Safe distance between tower cranes and operating-range limiting system
(a) Operating-range limitation (b) Obstacle (e.g. building)
Warning!
Risk of collision when cranes are standing too close together.
X Maintain a safe distance between all parts of the tower cranes of at least 2 m
LBC/en/01/Ausgabe: 07.11
Warning!
Stability of the crane will be seriously jeopardised as a result of unsuitable underground.
The permissible load capacity of the foundation soil should not be exceeded.
This must be mathematically verified by the operating company!
Before assembling on the foundation, check the load-bearing capacity of the soil. Pay attention to
the foundation reaction forces. For further information, see: Documentation Corner pressures, foun-
dation loadings and ballast data.
Warning
Improper preparation of the foundation will jeopardise stability of the crane.
Preparation must be carried out in accordance with Liebherr specifications. Pay attention to the
foundation reaction forces. For further information, see: Documentation Corner pressures, founda-
tion loadings and ballast data.
The operating company is solely responsible for any damage resulting from improper preparation of
the foundation or negligence of the soil conditions.
X A tower section or base tower section is required for installation of the foundation anchors. Pro-
jection above finished concrete A and installation depth B of the foundation anchors must be
maintained. The tower section must be positioned with the climbing side situated at 90° to the wall
line of the building in order that the jib is positioned parallel to the wall of the building when the
crane is being climbed. For further information, see: chapter Erection in the Instruction Manual.
LBC/en/01/Ausgabe: 07.11
5.3 Foundation
Warning!
Stability of the crane will be seriously jeopardised as a result of unsuitable underground.
Foundation slabs and rail tracks must be laid in such a way that overload or collapse of the walls or
slopes of the foundation pit is not possible. This must be mathematically verified by the operat-
ing company! The distance to the foundation pit is dependent on the corner pressure of the crane
and on the soil condition (water content, friction, shear strength etc.)
X Before laying the foundation slabs or the rail track, check the load-bearing capacity of the soil.
Pay attention to the corner pressures. For further information, see: Documentation Corner pres-
sures, foundation loadings and ballast data.

This chapter has been compiled exclusively for properly qualified personnel. All information concerning
safe and quick erection of the crane can be obtained here. Starting at the base of the crane, erection
of the tower and the slewing part of the crane are explained step-by-step. The erection instructions
include all variants of the crane base.
If climbing equipment is to be used, the instructions regarding climbing must also be observed.
To ensure safe handling of the connecting material on the tower and on the slewing platform, the infor-
mation booklet "Pre-stressed high-tensile bolt connections on Liebherr tower cranes" must also be
noted.

Warning!
Risk of accidents as a result of excessive wind speeds.
Should wind speeds exceed 12.5 m/s (45 km/h, wind force 6) during erection and climbing of the
crane, there is a risk of the crane toppling. Please note that unexpected wind speeds far exceeding
12.5 m/s could occur as a result of sudden gusts.
X Discontinue erection and climbing of the crane immediately if wind speeds exceed 12.5 m/s (45
km/h, wind force 6).
X Discontinue erection and climbing of the crane immediately if gusts exceed 12.5 m/s (45 km/h,
wind force 6).
– The building site for erection of the crane base must be prepared in accordance with the crane ap-
plication. For further information, see chapter: ›Corner pressures, foundation loadings and ballast
data‹ and ›Preparing for application of the crane‹.
– Power supply and space must meet the requirements. For further information, see chapter:
›Preparing for application of the crane‹.
– The cross-sections and lengths of the electric supply cables must correspond with the electrical con-
nections. For further information, see chapter: ›Specifications (electrical connection data)‹.
– Lightning protection and protection against electrostatic charge must be guaranteed. For further in-
formation, see chapter: ›Preparing for application of the crane‹.
– Make sure that the crane is visible.

Instruction Manual Operation
Control and operating elements
Note
The further the control lever is deflected from the neutral position, the quicker the load hook is lifted or low-
ered. The speed can be reduced by pressing the push-button (a) on the control lever to 1/4. The load can
thus be lifted and lowered with considerably more precision. Use this possibility when positioning the load.
As long as the push-button (a) remains pressed, the hoist gear brake remains released. Even when the
control lever is in the neutral position.
X Press the push-button (a) on the control lever (c) and hold pressed.
Caution!
If the push-button (a) is released when the control lever is in a deflected position, the speed is in-
creased instantaneously. This reduces the working life of the drive units.
X Before releasing the push-button: Return the control lever to the "NEUTRAL" ("ZERO") position.

Danger!
Lifting and lowering of the load, as well as slewing during crane travelling, can cause the crane to
tip with certain crane configurations. For further information see: ›Corner pressures, foundation
loadings and ballast data‹.
If in doubt, refrain from lifting and lowering of the load, as well as slewing during crane travelling.
The brake of the travel gear is applied automatically after a short time. It serves as a holding brake
only.

Instruction Manual Maintenance and inspection
This chapter has been compiled for maintenance personnel designated by the operating company.
The maintenance and inspection chart provides a summary of all necessary maintenance and in-
spection tasks. The maintenance and inspection deadlines can be planned precisely using the inter-
val specifications.
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11
- Essentially, all maintenance tasks on the brakes can be carried out with the
crane erected!
- Maintenance and repair tasks may only be carried out by qualified, specialist
personnel.Refer to the notes on safety in the following maintenance
instructions!
- Refer also to the information regarding maintenance and repair in the enclosed
operating instructions from the supplier (see the chapter "Accessories")!
- A spacious maintenance or repair area must be cordoned off as required!
Access to this area is prohibited to unauthorised persons!
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11
- Ensure that the friction lining of the brake disc and the friction surfaces are
free of oil and grease at all times!
- Fastening screws:
- Tightening torques must be complied with!
- Check regularly! No loose bolts!
- The braking moment for the respective drive has been set at the factory!
Do not adjust the adjusting ring for the braking moment!
When carrying out the replacements (spare-parts) check the setting of
the braking moment!
(Checking is only possible for adjustable brakes)
Example of brake description: BFK 458-12E for (A)djustable
BFK 458-12N for (N)on-adjustable
- Do not readjust the adjustment nuts for manual release!
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11
Fastening bolts:
- Tightening torques must be complied with!
- Check regularly! No loose bolts!
- Install original spare-parts only!
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11
- Check all cylinders, lines, hoses and the tank regularly for leaks
and for any discernible exterior damage. Rectify this damage
immediately!
- Dispose of old fuels and lubricants in an orderly manner!
Oil change:
Comprehensive testing and oil analyses have shown that contaminated oil
causes premature wear of aggregates.
This contamination could have the following consequences:
- Contamination penetrating parts when carrying out repairs.
- Wear of hydraulic components.
- Penetration of dust and moisture via the ventilation and bleed filters.
- Topping up of lost quantities with unsuitable oil.
- Penetration of dirt particles via cylinder rods.
Until now, varying change intervals have been specified.
Every 2000 operating hours, however, at the latest after 2 years, it is
imperative that the hydraulic oil is changed.
This oil change depends first and foremost on the actual condition of the oil
(viscosity, degree of purity etc.). These factors are dependent upon the
respective application of the crane.
This means that an oil change carried out in compliance with the previously
specified change intervals could be performed too early, as well as too late.
The new type of hydraulic oil change, as stipulated by the
"Wear-Check lubricant analysis"
allows potentially considerable extensions of the oil change intervals.
For reference or user information, as well as guidelines pertaining to
the "Wear-Check lubricant analysis", see the chapter "Accessories"
LBC/en/01/Issued: 07.11
The maintenance and inspection chart gives a summary of all maintenance and inspection tasks. A
description of these tasks can be obtained on the following pages. The general plan can be used as
a check-list and as verification that the work has been carried out.

Should one or more of the following criteria occur, the drive unit must be examined by specialist
personnel and repaired:
– The gears or other drive components are leaking (contamination indicates a leak).
– The visible shaft connections (e.g. flexible couplings, dowel shaft or spline shaft connections) be-
tween individual drive components (e.g. electric motor, coupling, gear, brake, drum) indicate wear
or damage.
– Unusually large clearance (backlash) indicates a defect (e.g. worn shaft-hub connections, worn
gear teeth, worn couplings, loose connections etc.) in the drive train (e.g. electric motor, coupling,
gear, brake, drum).
– Unusual noises are audible.
– An unusual degree of heat is evident.
– The general condition (corrosion, dirt) gives the impression of concealed faults.
– Fastening bolts are loose, cracked or faulty.
– The brake lining is worn or damaged.
– The prescribed, recurring inspections by skilled and specialist personnel have not been carried
out (documented in the crane test record book).
– The maintenance and repair tasks prescribed in the operating instructions have not been carried
out (documented, for example, in the crane test record book).
– Determined faults have been neglected over lengthy periods of time without being remedied.
– The electrical installation (cable entries, cable attachments) indicates damage or signs of ageing.
– Operating conditions are extreme (e.g. multi-shift operation, continuous operation with maximum
load), in other words, the operating conditions far exceed the conditions originally taken as a basis
for the design of the drive units (tower cranes for building sites).
This list has been compiled to provide exemplary criteria for the condition-related maintenance of
tower crane drive units. This list does not assume any liability as to completeness.

Maintenance and inspection Instruction Manual
Analysing hydraulic oil / gear oil
Extensive examinations and oil analyses have proven that contaminated oil will lead to premature
wear of aggregates.
This contamination may be caused by any one of the following:
– Dirt sticking to parts being reassembled following repair.
– Wear of hydraulic components / gear components.
– Dirt and moisture entering via the ventilation and aeration filters.
– Topping up oil deficits with unsuitable oil.
– Infiltration of dirt particles via cylinder rods.
Until now, the hydraulic oil / gear oil had to be changed every 2000 operating hours, and at least every
2 years. Necessity of the oil-change is largely dependent on the condition of the oil (viscosity, degree
of contamination etc.). These factors will depend on the respective application of the crane. This
means that oil-changes were carried out either too early or too late in accordance with the previously
prescribed change intervals.
The new method of the hydraulic oil / gear oil change, in accordance with the "Wear-Check lubricant
analysis" offers the following advantages:
– Oil-change intervals can be extended considerably wherever required, in accordance with appli-
cation conditions, and safely adapted effectively and economically.
– Servicing costs are reduced, the life-expectancy of the aggregates is increased and the purchas-
ing costs and disposal costs for lubricants are minimised.
– Any damage to the hydraulic system / gear system can be avoided.
– Unexpected machine failure, as well as shut-down and consequences thereof, are prevented.
– The environment is conserved as a result of reduced and controlled disposal.
Liebherr recommend the oil-change intervals for the hydraulics and the gears to be carried out in
compliance with the "Wear-Check lubricant analysis" as an alternative to the intervals used thus
far.
Customers can therefore obtain the following analysis kits from Liebherr:
– Individual analysis kit (Part No. 8145660)
– 6-piece analysis kit (Part No. 7018368 03)
– 6-piece bio-analysis kit (Part No. 7026088 03)
– 12-piece analysis kit (Part No. 7018369)
– Hand pump (Part No. 8145666 03) (only required once)
For further information see: Chap. 9.12.3 Taking a sample with the hand pump
If the Liebherr customer is in possession of one of these analysis kits, they may naturally take an oil
sample when the inspection interval is reached (see the corresponding aggregate description in the
chapter "Maintenance and inspection"), or in accordance with the specifications resulted in the last
laboratory report, and forward it to Wear-Check.
The customer will then be informed of the results obtained from the analysis (For further information
see: Chap. 9.12.4 Evaluating the laboratory report) via post, e-mail or fax two or three days after the
sample has arrived in the form of over 20 individual results.

Analysing hydraulic oil / gear oil
Using the symbol identification (a, b, c), it is possible to determine from the result whether the oil must
be changed or whether the oil currently being used is still okay.
The determined numerical values are denoted in the text field (d). Evaluation does not only take the
condition of the oil sample into consideration, but also the respective machine type. The comments
tell you whether the condition of the hydraulic system / gear system is okay or whether continued
operation will result in damage being caused.

Note:
Intervals for changing the oil and the lubricant
The oil-change intervals are dependent upon the respective gear types.
It should be noted that special lubricants are required for certain gears.
Flushing
If the drained oil indicates heavy contamination, we recommend flushing the gearboxes before re-
filling them. The same oil type should be used for scavenging to prevent the oil from thinning. Ben-
zine and petrol are not permissible.
Procedures are described in the 'Maintenance' chapter in the operating instructions of the respec-
tive crane.

X Brake the reel at the reel flange using a board.
10.6.5 Preparations prior to reeving of the rope and reeving the rope
Only use ropes which comply with the specifications in the Liebherr rope list. If ropes are used which
do not comply with the specifications in the Liebherr rope list, sound operation of the crane can no
longer be guaranteed. Reeve the ropes in accordance with the rope reeving diagrams. For further
information, see: Chap. Erection.
If non-twist ropes are used: Non-twist ropes should only be run with fixed points at both ends.
1250 HC 40 / 49516 10 - 31
Repair Instruction Manual
Ropes
X Reeve a rope that is the same type, strength and nominal diameter as the original, and check the
nominal rope diameter. (1)
Note
In the event of multilayer drum winding, the actual rope diameter may be a maximum 3,5 % over the
nominal rope diameter.
Gradient of the groove on the rope drum totals 4%. If the rope featured the same tolerance, this
could lead to the rope becoming clamped. Each winding of the rope may not come into contact with
the previous winding on any one layer.
10 - 32 1250 HC 40 / 49516
Instruction Manual Repair
Ropes
X Ensure when reeving that the rope is running correctly in the grooves of the rope pulleys.
X If certain length of rope has to be laid out on the ground for reeving: Ensure that the rope runs in
without any twists.
X A test-run of several lifts under partial load and later with alternately loaded and unloaded hook
block is required. The rope thus adapts itself to the direction of bending and the bending radii.
Caution!
If the hook block becomes twisted, the ropes above the hook block will clash with each other. This
will result damage to the rope.
Caution and expertise are required to rectify twisting of the ropes. Do not forcefully turn the ropes
over short rope lengths!
With twist-free hoist ropes (twist compensator open), if should be sufficient to run the crane trolley
without a load a few times.
Further possibility:
X Trolley-in to the minimum radius.
X Attach a load.
X Hoist-up, at the same time trolley-out to the jib tip end stops.
Problem rectification
Twisting of the hook block has not been rectified?
The hoist rope is still twisted.
X Repeat the aforementioned procedure

Caution!
The pump can become blocked.
If the pressure gauge is connected directly to the pump element, extremely high pressure is resulted
when auxiliary lubrication is initiated and the pump could become blocked. The pump can be blo-
cked for 30 minutes without any lasting damage being effected.
X Do not connect the pressure gauge directly to the pump element.
X Connect the pressure gauge (0 - 600 bar, 0 - 8702 psi) to the pressure relief valve. (1)
X Initiate auxiliary lubrication (For further information, see: › Initiating the auxiliary lubrication ‹). (2)
ª The pressure relief valve should open when the pressure reaches 270 bar, otherwise the pressure
relief valve must be replaced.
