INSTALLATION INSPECTION
Decisions 354/83 and 530/83 made by the Finnish
Council of State stipulate that an installation inspection
must be performed for each crane-vehicle assembly
before use.
An inspection form can be found in this manual.
The person performing the inspection must be familiar
with the crane’s construction and operation.
MOUNTING THE MULTI- AND DOUBLE-ACTING
VALVES
The valve must be positioned or
covered so that the levers cannot
be used inadvertently.
Install the valve using the included bracket at the
desired location, paying attention to the direction of
the hoses and movement during loading and trans-
ferring so that there is no risk of abrasion or clamping.
The label indicating the safe distance from live
conductors must be clearly visible during operation.
Hoses in the operator’s cabin
must be protected so that the
user is not endangered by oil jets
in the event of breakage.
The levers in the multi-lever valve can be moved to
dierent positions if necessary. Detach the levers from
the valve before moving them.
ASSEMBLY AND MOUNTING
Read these instruction before
starting any assembly or moun-
ting work. Improper mounting
work can cause hazards during
use of the crane. Mounting car-
ried out in a manner other than
that specied in this manual can expose the user to
danger and will void the manufacturer’s guarantee.
Check the stability of the crane-vehicle assembly by
performing the necessary calculations. See “Determi-
ning the stability”.
The mounting must be performed by the manufac-
turer or a service center or person authorized by the
manufacturer.
The strength class of the mounting bolts is 10.9. Use
self-locking nuts, e.g., DIN985.
Put all screws into place. First tighten all screws in threa-
ded holes to torque, and then all screws in unthreaded
holes.
Retighten the bolts after the test
run and the rst day of use.
When mounting the crane on a foundation not delive-
red by FARMI Forest, use the mounting plate shown in
gure 1.In mounting, allow enough space for servicing
and repairs.

The person testing the crane must be qualied to use it.
1. Read the installation inspection report. If no instal-
lation inspection has been performed, do not use
the crane.
2. Ensure that the control valve’s pressure line (P)
has been connected properly and that the return
(T) is unobstructed.
3. Check the hydraulic oil level.
4. Familiarize yourself with the control valve’s func-
tions.
5. Ensure that the hoses can move freely. Remove any
transport supports and ties.
6.
Ensure that there are no people or obstacles in
the operating area. The danger zone is 20 m.
7. The crane must be tested on a level, rm base.
TESTING
1. Ensure that the control valve’s control levers are in
the middle position.
2.
Connect the oil ow to the crane. Let oil ow
through the valve for a while.
3. Lower the support legs.
4. Carefully drive the crane movements one by one
to their extreme positions and repeat this until the
movements are smooth.
5. After testing the crane, inspect the joints and
repair any leaks.
6.
Check the mounting bolts of the crane and the
tting stand, and tighten them if necessary.
7. Check the hydraulic oil level, and top up the oil if ne-
cessary.
Be careful when bleeding air
from the system. If you drive a
cylinder to its extreme position
at full force, the air pressure in
the cylinder will damage the
seals.
Be extremely careful when there
is air in the cylinders.
CONNECTION TO THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Before connecting the crane to the tractor’s hydraulic
system, make sure that the oils are compatible.The cra-
ne has been tested using ISO VG46S oil that meets the
API SE, CD, and API GL-4 requirements.
We recommend connecting the pressure hose to the
single-acting hydraulic outlet and the return hose to
the tank via the return lter. The lter’s intended ow
rate is 80 l/min and the ltering density 25 µm abs.
The crane can also be connected to the double-acting
hydraulics outlet. If this is done, make sure that the
lever of the double-acting valve controlling the ow is
in the right position so that the pressure is directed to
the pressure connection of the crane’s control valve.
Check the operation of the double-acting outlet in the
vehicle’s operating manual.
COMMISSIONING
Before using the crane, familiari-
ze yourself with the operating
and safety instructions.
INSPECTIONS BEFORE TESTING
Do not pressurize the hydraulic system before
connecting the control valve’s 1/2” quick couplings to
the vehicle’s hydraulic system.
Connect the pressure hose (P) to the valve as indicated
by the arrow and the return hose (T) to the vehicle as
indicated by the arrow.
Do not pressurize the control
valve’s return line (T) – this could
cause the valve to break.
Ensure that the 1/2”quick coup-
ling are locked.

PRACTICE RUNS
• Drive through every movement with an unloaded
crane, paying attention to the positions in which
the crane can hit obstacles.
• Move the control levers smoothly and steadily,
avoiding quick and jerky movements.
• Learn to use several functions simultaneously. This
enables smooth, precise operation.
• Start o at a low engine speed in order to avoid
sudden movements.
• When you have become accustomed to the crane’s
movements, choose the appropriate engine speed
so that operation is ecient but you still have the
movements under control.
The lowest recommended operating temperature for
the crane is -25oC.
Note that the hydraulic seals, hoses, and steel structures
are prone to damage at low temperatures.
When starting work at cold temperatures, rst let the
oil ow freely through the valve for a couple of minutes.
The maximum operating temperature for hydraulic oil
is +75oC.
Use the support legs only to
provide additional support for
the vehicle.
When working on an inclined surface, do not load the
crane with the full lifting torque, and be extremely
careful.
When loading from uphill, note that the slewing
movement may not be able to support the load but
the pressure relief valves can be overloaded and the
load can move down, causing a danger of the crane
falling over.
Never move the boom to its
extreme position at full speed!
Be careful when working near
electric cables.
Observe the safe distances.
When transferring the crane, support it against the trai-
ler body or load.
DETACHING THE CRANE
Ensure that the ground under the crane is suciently
hard and level.
Ensure that there are no extra people around and that
no danger will be caused to others where the crane is
to be stored. Pay special attention to the storage loca-
tion of the control valve, ensuring that, e.g., it is out of
the reach of children.
Always switch the pump o
before removing the quick coup-
ling between the crane and the
vehicle.
When detaching the crane from
the vehicle, make sure that there
are no people in the immediate
vicinity.
1. Lower the support legs to the desired height.
2. Lower the booms as shown in g. 2.
3. Lower the crane using a hoist.
4. Make sure that the crane cannot lean over. Fig. 2.
5. Detach the crane from the vehicle.

• The main pressure is measured from the measuring
point in the control valve’s inlet section.
• Adjustments and inspections for each movement:
• Set the main pressure relief valve to 5 bar
above the value set for the protective valve.
• Perform the movement, and check and adjust
the pressure if necessary.
• Finish by adjusting the main pressure to the
set value.
• Pressure measurements are to be performed at
the normal operating temperature and at the
normal ow rate.
• The free ow pressure can be read from the
manometer when the ow of oil is directed through
the valve.
REPAIR WELDING
If welding is required for modifying or repairing the
crane, note the following:
• Have welding work always performed by qualied
personnel; class C. Class B is only required for wel-
ding joints which must withstand high stress.
• Remove paint and any oil from the location to be
welded.
• Connect the ground terminal directly to the piece

LUBRICATION
Using the appropriate hydraulic oils and lubricants is
essential for the trouble-free operation of the machine.
CHANGING THE OIL
Change the oil according to the vehicle’s maintenance
recommendations.
The crane has been lled with ISO VG46S oil at the fac-
tory.
If the oil temperature does not exceed 70
o
C in the sum-
mer, winter oil can be used all year round.
When changing oil, make sure that the oil grade being
used is compatible with the system and any oil remai-
ning in it.
HYDRAULIC OIL REQUIREMENTS
The freezing point must be below -50oC.
The viscosity must not be lower than 1.5 Eo, +50oC for
piston pumps and 2.5 Eo, + 50oC for gear pumps.
The hydraulic oil must contain the necessary additives
for lubrication, rust protection, and defoaming.
Hydraulic oils intended for use in tractors are usually
also suitable for use in hydraulic cranes.
