Preheating the hydraulic oil

Above 10 °C (50 °F)
Crane operation with load is permissible without speed
restriction.
From 10°C to 4°C (50°F to 40°F)
To preheat, carry out crane movements with loads only in
normal operation mode, at medium engine speed and at
medium operating speed.
From 4°C to -10°C (40°F to 15°F)
