13.4.3 LIFTING PROCEDURE
Lifting work can be carried out only for machines with lifting
marks. Before starting the lifting operation, stop the machine in a
horizontal place and do as follows.
1. Start the engine, make sure that the machine is horizontal, then
set the work equipment to the travel posture.
For details, see “12.4 MOVING MACHINE OFF”.
2. Set the safety lock lever for the work equipment control lever to
the LOCK position L.
3. Stop the engine, check that the area around the operator’s
compartment is safe, then set the safety bar to LOCK position L
to prevent the front frame and rear frame from articulating.
4. Select wire ropes, slings, spreader bars and other lifting equip-
ment to match the weight of the machine, and fit the wire ropes
to the lifting hooks at the front of the front frame and the rear
of the rear frame (lifting hook marks).
5. When the machine comes off the ground (raised 10 to 20 cm (3.9
to 7.9 in)), stop the lifting operation, check carefully that the
machine is balanced and that the wire ropes are not loose, then
continue the lifting operation slowly.
