H
This inspection may only be performed by Manitowoc Crane Care or an
authorised GROVE dealer or an authorised specialist workshop.
• Have the entire air conditioning system checked for leaks and proper func-
tioning.
The inspection of the air conditioning system particularly includes the
inspection of
– the refrigerant collector, in accordance with the pressure container
regulations (test group
II) and
– the refrigerant compressor.
• Only allow the system to be topped up with suitable refrigerant.
S
Risk of damage to the condenser.
Do not use a high pressure cleaner or steam jet cleaner. The powerful jet
may damage the fins. Use only compressed air for cleaning.
G
Risk of burns due to escaping refrigerant.
Wear suitable safety glasses and gloves when checking the hoses and con-
nections.
This will prevent injury from suddenly escaping refrigerant. Seek medical
attention if the skin or eyes come into contact with the refrigerant.
