If due to exceptional circumstances the truck crane needs be put into oper-
ation for certain types of maintenance work, great care must be taken where
there are moving parts (superstructure, outriggers, Cardan shafts, slewing
bearing, engines, tiltable crane cab). There is a risk of injury!
•Ensure that all hydraulic components are returned to their initial positions
(e.g. the main boom) or locked (e. g. the outriggers) before starting main-
tenance work.
Escaping hydraulic fluid or compressed air can cause severe injury.
Remember that the hydraulic and compressed air systems of the truck crane
are pressurised even when the truck crane is not in operation. Tighten loose
screw connections only when the systems are depressurised. Always
depressurise the hydraulic and compressed air systems before opening
them.
•Do not allow hot fluids to escape in an uncontrolled manner. Risk of
scalding!
•Observe the applicable safety regulations when working with flammable
fluids.
•Observe the applicable safety regulations when working with process
materials.
•Switch off all electrical consumers and first disconnect the earthing
terminal before removing any electrical batteries.
•Keep in mind the corrosive effect of battery acid.
•Note the fire alarm and fire-fighting facilities on site.
•Return the truck crane to proper working order once maintenance work is
completed. Inform the crane operator accordingly.

2.1.1 Securing against unauthorised use
•Secure the truck crane against unauthorised use by:
– Applying the parking brake,
– Switching the transmission to position N,
– Turning off the engine,
– Removing the ignition key and
– Stowing away the hand-held control in the crane cab or in the driver's
cab,
– Locking the driver's cab and the crane cab.
•Set up warning signs in the driver's cab and in the crane cab with infor-
mation about
– when,
–why,
– and by whom
the truck crane was secured to prevent unauthorised use.
Remove the warning signs from the driver's cab and the crane cab
after completion of the maintenance work.
GDanger due to unauthorised use!

2.2 Handling substances that are harmful to the
environment
Which substances
are harmful to the
environment?
When you carry out maintenance work on the truck crane you will occasion-
ally work with consumables which are classified as harmful to the environ-
ment by applicable national and regional regulations.
These include oil, fuel, grease, used oil and fuel filters, as well as rags which
have come into contact with these environmentally harmful substances.
•When handling these substances observe the applicable national and
regional regulations as well as the instructions in this chapter.
Using suitable
equipment
Substances harmful to the environment can sometimes be caustic. When
doing maintenance work involving these consumables (oils, coolant, fuel)
always use receptacles, hoses, pumps, funnels etc. which have sufficient
capacity and which are resistant to the consumables.
For oil samples, always use receptacles that can be closed and have suffi-
cient capacity and resistance to the consumables.
The approximate amount of consumables to be expected is specified in the
maintenance plans.
Filling and
draining
•When filling and draining, make absolutely sure that no substances harm-
ful to the environment seep into the earth, escape into the sewage system
or pollute natural waters.
•Collect consumables (e.g. oils, fuels, coolant) in a suitable receptacle
when draining.
•Always use a drain hose when draining, and a funnel or a pump with a
hose suitable for the respective substance when filling.
