DANGER
Only persons with the requisite knowledge and experience with cranes may use
the crane. Never operate the crane when you are sick, tired, under the influence of
medicines, alcohol or other drugs.
• Take the delivery instructions from your Hiab authorised service workshop, or receive instruction
from an experienced person from your own company. Only then should you operate your crane.
• Ensure that you comply with the statutory requirements of the country in which you use the crane
(for example, certificate, obligatory safety-helmet).

Introduction
HIAB L-HiPro 145/165/195/235 9

DANGER
• Carry out yourself only the service and
maintenance work you have the requisite
knowledge and experience of.
• All other maintenance work may only be
carried out by a Hiab authorised service
workshop.
• Ensure that every defect is rectified
immediately, according to the instructions.
• Follow the instructions exactly!
• All other work to rectify faults must be
performed by personnel in a Hiab
authorised service workshop!
WARNING
• Never clean the electronic system, plastic components, signs or bearings with a
high-pressure jet cleaner. It could cause damage.
• Never expose the electronic system to high electrical voltages. This could
damage the control system.
• Never immerse the controller in water or other liquid. This will make the
controller unusable.
If your crane is equipped with add-on lifting equipment (hoist, rotator, etc.):
• The operation of the crane with add-on lifting equipment can differ from the
operation as described in this manual.
• You should therefore study the Operating Manual for the add-on equipment
carefully, before you use the crane.
• Take particular note when placing the crane in to or out of transport position.

2.9. LHV Load holding valves
All cylinders are equipped with load-holding valves as a
safety device. After a crane movement they hold the crane
in position, also in the unlikely event of a burst hose.
If there is a leak or a component fractures, such as a pipe,
hose or a coupling, the load-holding valves will stop the
booms from collapsing down, even when the hydraulic
system is switched off, and you operate a particular crane
function.
To operate a hydraulic cylinder equipped with a load
holding valve, an opening pressure is required.

3. Safety precautions and warnings
3.1. Operating conditions
You may only use the crane under the following conditions:
• In the open air, or in spaces with sufficient ventilation.
• With a mean wind velocity less than 13.3 m/sec (approx. 29.7 mph). See the wind speed table.
DANGER
• If you use the crane in a confined space you could suffocate from the exhaust
gases from the vehicle.
• Never use the crane in a high wind or storm. When the mean wind velocity
exceeds 13.3 m/sec (approx. 29.7 mph) the crane will behave unpredictably.
Never use the crane during a thunderstorm.
•Never use the crane at temperatures below -40°C (-40°F), as the steel's
properties deteriorate below this temperature.
WARNING
• At temperatures below 0°C (32°F):
Do not touch the operating levers during
the first few minutes.
• When starting in cold weather, the wear on
the hydraulic system is greater than at
normal working temperatures.
To get a good function of the crane, it should
be started as follows:
• Engage the power take-off at low rpm.
• Allow the system to idle for a few minutes.
• Operate stabiliser legs up and down for
one minute, in order to warm up the oil.

3.3. Definition of this loader crane
Usage of the crane
The HIAB loader crane is used to lift and move loads in the working area permitted by the load
plate and the load diagram. The cranes are normally mounted on a vehicle but they can also be
mounted on a fixed base plate. The crane can be equipped with a number of accessories.
Loader cranes are designed for loading and unloading the vehicle, as well as for other duties as
specified:
Safety precautions and warnings
HIAB L-HiPro 145/165/195/235 17

Permitted duties:
• Loading and unloading cargo from/to a vehicle
• Lifting of loads from the ground/vehicle to a higher place
• Installation work (beams, concrete plates, windows...) in building constructions
• Lifting construction material (wall boards, bricks, blocks…) on a pallet fork to a building, taking
the material from the vehicle on which the crane is mounted, from another vehicle or from the
ground
• Hoisting, e.g. beams, concrete plates and any other material and equipment used in building
construction
• With a bucket, moving filling material at a construction site
• Handling large loads (containers, boats, machinery, vehicles…)
• Collection of waste and recycling material (glass, paper, cardboard, plastic…)
• Installation of informative posts, road signs, notice boards, traffic lights, street lights…
• Handling submerged pumps in wells, using a hoist
• If the crane is a MEWP type, workers in a personnel basket can work at heights, for the
reparation/maintenance of buildings, street lights, traffic lights…
Forbidden duties:
• Crane mounted onboard ships or floating structures, only permitted in cases authorized by Hiab
• Continuous use as a production crane in assembly lines, foundries…, except for cranes prepared
for that purpose
• Handle loads, work with submerge boom system or accessories, in strong currents such as
rivers
• Loading cargo that is partially loaded or fastened by other means, without making sure the
capacity of the crane is enough for the entire load
• Any duty which implies:
◦ Pressure against the ground, unless the crane is specifically prepared for this
◦ Push/pull with the boom system against any type of obstacle (wall, ground…)
◦ Using the JIB upside down (e.g. work under bridges with a personnel basket), except JIBs
prepared for that. (See Operator’s Manual for your JIB).
DANGER
Lifting people with a crane is never allowed unless it is a MEWP crane. When
working in a personnel basket, both feet must have contact with the floor of the
basket. Standing on boxes or ladders in the basket can lead to injury or death.
3.3.1. Noise declaration
The following values for emitted noise may be taken as general and conservative values for
ordinary installations of loader cranes on normal diesel engine powered trucks. Declared dual-
number noise emission values in accordance with ISO 4871:
• Emitted A-weighted sound power level for basic loader cranes in accordance with ISO 3744:
LwA = 103 dB (Uncertainty: KwA = 2 dB).
• Emitted A-weighted sound power level for loader cranes with hoist in accordance with ISO 3744:
LwA = 107 dB (Uncertainty: KwA = 2 dB).
• A-weighted sound pressure level at loader crane control stations in accordance with ISO 11201:
LpA = 95 dB (Uncertainty: KpA = 4 dB).
Safety precautions and warnings
18 HIAB L-HiPro 145/165/195/235

Particular installations can be quieter, in which case a post installation noise measurement in
accordance with clause 6.3 of EN 12999:2011 may be used to prove this.

3.3.3. Maximum load [AR+]
Lifting capacity
Your crane has a certain lifting capacity, expressed in kNm or tm. This lifting capacity is also known
as the load moment. The lifting capacity is: the payload at hook multiplied by the outreach in
metres that the crane can operate at different positions. The lifting capacity of your crane
determines the maximum load your crane may lift within its working zone. However take careful
note; the greater the operating radius of the crane, the lower the lifting capacity will be because of
the weight of the boom system itself. The load plate and the load diagram on your crane show the
maximum loads you may lift in the operating reach of your crane.
DANGER
• Overloading could result in damage to the crane or in the worst case, personal
injury or death
• Never increase a hanging load, since that may cause a load holding valve to
open and/or the vehicle to turn over.
• Never use the crane with the OLP system switched off.
