1Reduction of slewing speed – can be switched
on and off
In addition to the specifications in the lifting capacity table and operating
manual supplied, the automatic reduction of the slewing speed can be
switched off under certain conditions.
1.1 Important notes
These additional pages describe only this special function.
Also observe all specifications and safety instructions in the Operating
Instructions and lifting capacity table supplied.
With reduction
switched on
Depending on the degree of utilisation and the working radius, the slewing
speeds are automatically reduced to the maximum permissible levels listed
in the lifting capacity table under the comments on slewing speed.
With reduction
switched off
If the maximum slewing speeds listed in the supplied lifting capacity table are
exceeded, the buzzer tone sounds and a warning symbol is displayed.
The slewing speed is not reduced.
GRisk of accidents due to excessive slewing speed!
Observe the specified maximum permissible slewing speeds. This prevents
the truck crane from being subjected to excessive dynamic loads, which
can lead to damage to crane sections and the truck crane overturning.
Always slow down and accelerate the slewing movement slowly and avoid
swinging loads.
When reduction is switched off, you as crane operator are responsible for
a slewing speed that is suitable the current loading case.

1.2.2 Switching reduction off and on
HThe reduction of the slewing speed is switched on with the ignition.
Switching reduction off
You can only switch off the reduction if the
slewing range type Standard has been entered.
•Select and confirm the symbol (2).
– Display symbol (1) – green.
– Warning message display (3) – blue.
The slewing speed is not reduced auto-
matically.
If the maximum permissible slewing speed
is exceeded, the buzzer tone sounds once
and the warning message (3) is displayed –
red.
HThe entered limitations for the power unit speed of the slewing gear are still
valid and the continuous speed reductions due to the working range limiter
are still active.
Switching reduction on
•Select and confirm the symbol (2).
– Symbol (1) – grey displayed.
– The warning message (3) disappears.
The slewing speed is reduced automatically.
The reduction is automatically switched on
when you enter the slewing range type

The display RCL (1) shows the outrigger spans
in metres (feet).
The control units (2) indicate the outrigger
spans in per cent.
The percentage values in the enclosed lifting
capacity table and the enclosed operating instruc-
tions deviate from the percentage values actu-
ally displayed on the control units (2) as they
are based on different principles.
These additional pages give an overview for different crane types of what
per cent you have to move the outrigger beams on the control units in order
to obtain the desired outrigger span.
HDepending on the operating instructions supplied, the outrigger spans are
given as the overall width or additionally as an individual width.

In the Operating manual supplied, it is noted that special care must be taken when
telescoping in the emergency programe (1), as no automatic monitoring takes
place.
If you move the telescoping cylinder without a telescopic section (return run),
please also note all the information in these additional pages.
(A) – These specifications apply to the outermost
telescopic section (3) – on all fixed lengths.
•Always stop extending the telescopic cylin-
der (1) once the locking point (2) on the
outermost telescopic section (3) has been
reached.
There is no automatic shutdown.
(B) – If you move too far past the locking point (2),
the cylinder tube (4) will hit the main boom
head (5) at the front.
This can lead to damage which makes telescop-
ing the main boom no longer possible.
Telescoping emergency programe
Return run of the telescoping cylinder
SRisk of damage during return run of the telescopic cylinder!
Always stop extending once the locking point on the outermost telescopic section
has been reached.
This prevents damage to the boom system through a collision between the
telescoping cylinder and the main boom head.

In addition to the information given in the operating instructions supplied, the
heating system and air-conditioning system in the crane cab can also be
operated from the driver's cab. This enables, for example, the crane cab to
be preheated while driving.
Additional operating elements
In the Various controls menu group – only in newer
program versions.
Operation
The Crane cab heating/air-conditioning system menu
is identical to the menu in the crane cab.
It is operated in the same way as in the crane cab
and is described in the supplied operating manual.
After switching on the ignition in the driver's cab,
the heating system and air-conditioning system in
the crane cab must always be switched off.

In addition to the information in the supplied Operating manual there are lifting
capacity tables for further outrigger spans. These additional pages only show the
additional outrigger spans.
Outrigger span type Three / One
Three outrigger beams are extended the same distance and one outrigger beam
has a smaller outrigger span.

– One outrigger span smaller – Left
– One outrigger span smaller – Right
There are no separate lifting capacity tables
for this type. The lifting capacities for the
type One outrigger span smaller – left are ena-
bled in a correspondingly mirrored slewing
range; àSupplied operating manual.
