Before Operation
Check the following electrical connections before operating
the crane to ensure the RCL system is properly connected
for the crane configuration.
Cranes With Main Hoist Only
If the crane is operated only with the boom and without boom
extension or lattice extension, no additional connections are
necessary. It must however be ensured that the A2B switch
weight is correctly mounted on the main boom hoist rope.
With even numbers of rope lines, the lifting limit switch
weight shall be attached to the "dead end" of the hoist rope.
With odd numbers of rope lines, the lifting limit switch weight
shall be attached to the rope line with the lowest operating
speed.
If the crane is operated with a main boom extension or top
section, the connecting cable must be mounted between the
distributor socket on the lattice extension and the distributor
socket on the main boom. The main boom A2B switch weight
must be disconnected and mounted on the extension or fly
boom A2B switch.
CAUTION
If the A2B switch is locked (disabled), the hook block
could hit the main boom head or extension, resulting in
damage to the hook block, main boom head or extension,
and hoist rope. Never lock an A2B switch with a switch
weight attached.

Failure to reposition the A2B weight will prevent the A2B
system from functioning properly. No weight shall be
mounted on the A2B switch of the main boom when
working with the extension/top section.
