adequate speed, the engine must be operated at middle to
high idle. All control handles are spring returned to off.
On current production cranes:
• The swing/travel alarm will sound continuously
when a function is being operated with a carbody
manual control.
• Cranes meeting 2010 European requirements, the
controls in the operator’s cab and the setup remote
controls cannot be operated when a carbody
manual control is being operated.
