13.1 Driving path
The driving path must be even. The level adjustment system cannot com-
pensate for uneven surfaces.
The ground must be stable enough to bear the axle loads.
If the surface pressure of the tyres exceeds the permissible load on the
ground, the surface area of the tyres must be increased by packing stable
material (e.g. wooden planks).
G
Risk of accident by partially obstructed view of the truck crane
When driving the truck crane, always stay in visual or radio contact with a
banksman who can observe the parts you are unable to see, e.g. the raised
boom in
0° to the rear.
G
Risk of overturning by slewing superstructure
When driving the rigged truck crane, the slewing gear must be switched off
– slewing gear brake engaged.
G
Risk of accident when driving with a lifted load
Driving the truck crane with a load lifted is prohibited. Always set down the
load prior to driving the truck crane and secure the hook block so it cannot
swing.
