2.4 Safety instructions for driving the truck crane
Walk around and inspect the truck crane before you start the vehicle. Check
the condition of the truck crane carefully using the checklists in the operat-
ing instructions. Do not assume everything is in working order simply
because it was in working order at the end of the last shift.
Check that all covers and safety devices are fitted properly and that they are
in good condition before starting the vehicle.
Use the appropriate access aids when checking overhead crane parts. Do
not use parts of the crane as access aids.
Keep all handles, steps, step treads and ladders free of dirt, snow and ice.
Keep all electric and hydraulic connections free from dirt. Check the con-
necting points for dust, foreign bodies and moisture before installation. This
also applies to protective caps and bridging plugs.
Check all operating and control elements in the driver's cab before starting
the engine.
After starting the engine, take note of all the lights and control elements.
After driving, secure the truck crane against unauthorized use.

Walk around the truck crane and inspect it before beginning crane opera-
tion. Check the condition of the truck crane carefully using the checklists in
the operating instructions. Do not assume everything is in working order

good condition before crane operation.
Check the safety devices (RCL, lifting limit switch, dead man's switch, emer-
gency stop switches) every day before you start work.
Use the appropriate access aids when carrying out overhead rigging or
maintenance work. Do not use parts of the crane as access aids.
Walk only on those parts of the truck crane which are equipped with appro-

Always use a ladder for work above head height.
