S
Risk of damage due to faulty suspension struts.
If the oil level is above the upper marking on the inspection glass, the sus-
pension strut is faulty and must be replaced.
Notify Manitowoc Crane Care or an authorised GROVE dealer.
S
Risk of damage to the suspension struts due to insufficient lubrication.
It is difficult to inject the oil. Even so, do not fill oil through the inspection
glass connections. If you do this, the oil will not reach all the lubricating
points.
