Leveling of Equipment
If crane is not level to within 1% of grade, allowable
capacities must be reduced. Therefore, when lifting on
outriggers, it is essential that crane is level to within 1% of
grade. Bubble level that is provided on the crane is calibrated
to be accurate within 1% of grade. If equipment is out of
level, an audible alarm will beep indicating releveling is
necessary. To properly level equipment, refer to Outrigger
Setup, page 4-17. An interlock will not allow crane functions
to operate during set-up.
To properly level crane, boom must be positioned over front
of crane, fully lowered to horizontal and fully retracted. Boom

raise and level crane using outriggers.
Frequently check crane for level since working crane may
settle during lifting operations. When rechecking crane for
level, boom must also be positioned over front of crane, fully
