Idenfying Your SPYDERCRANE by its Model Number
The rst six digits of your SPYDERCRANE’s model number deter-
mines the overall model. The ve-, six-, or seven-digit sux of the
model number explains the installed powerplants that the SPYDER-
CRANE is equipped with. For example, a URW547 equipped with a Yanmar diesel powerplant is called the URW547C4URS.
Model Number Descripon
URW306
URW376
 The URW306 is a xed-cab, telescoping boom mini-crawler crane with six boom secons.
 It has a maximum rated load capacity of 5,800 lbs.
 The URW376 is otherwise idencal but its rated load capacity is increased to 6,680 lbs.
URW306Cxxx-T
 The “Dash-Tee” is a stripped down variant of the URW306
 The Dash-Tee loses the crane management unit and load moment indicator of the URW306, but gains the
turnover protecon device like the 095-/200-series.
 It has a maximum rated load capacity of 5,800 lbs.
URW547  The URW547 has 59’ and seven secons of boom with a rated load capacity of 8,920 lbs.
URW706  The URW706 is the largest SPYDERCRANE with 63’ of boom and rated load capacity of 13,300 lbs.
xxxxxxC4URS  Diesel engine.
 This is the standard powerplant for the 300-, 500-, and 700-series.
xxxxxxCMURS  Diesel engine plus 220V Electrical.
 The CMURS sux indicates the addion of 220V Electrical auxiliary powerplant.
 The 220V requires a constant connecon to shore power to work.
xxxxxxCBURS  Diesel engine plus 110V Baery-Electrical.
 The CBURS sux indicates the addion of 110V Baery-Electrical auxiliary powerplant.
Where to Find More Informaon for Your SPYDERCRANE
This guide is helpful for SPYDERCRANE operators who are already trained and qualied and only need refresher knowledge on using the
SPYDERCRANE. If you require more informaon on operang or sustaining your SPYDERCRANE, there are a number of addional resources:
UNIC Operator’s Manual
This manual is very helpful for technical data on the core SPYDERCRANE vehicle (i.e., not the powerpack), but also contains some
basic operator informaon. Machine translated from Japanese, UNIC -supplied manuals can be challenging to read.
UNIC Parts Catalog
The UNIC Parts Catalog contains line drawings and part idencaon informaon for the core SPYDERCRANE (i.e., not the power-
pack, or Jib System). Like the Operator’s Manual, the Parts Catalog is machine translated from Japanese and can be dicult to use.
Other OEM Manuals
Depending on the SPYDERCRANE’s model and installed accessories, you may have addional manuals for the installed powerplant,
or powerplants, or other systems like the Auxiliary Winch.
How to Find Your SPYDERCRANE’s Model Number and Serial Number
Your SPYDERCRANE’s Model Number and Serial Number are listed on the Vehicle ID Plate that is installed on right side of the turret.

Your SPYDERCRANE is capable of traveling up inclines of up
and down 23-degrees. It can also maintain stability when the lat-
eral (side-side) angle of 20-degrees on prepared surfaces and 10-
degrees on loose earth.
The maximum traveling speed of your SPYDERCRANE depends
on which powerplant you are using. When traveling on either the
110V Baery-Electric or 220V Electrical powerplants, your maxi-
mum travel speed on at ground is 1.2 mph.
When using the diesel powerplant, traveling at idle will allow
the SPYDERCRANE to travel up to 1.4 mph on at ground. Increas-
ing the engine’s RPMs to maximum (wide-open throle) will in-
creases the SPYDERCRANE’s traveling speed to 2.8 mph. Traveling
at wide-open throle and going into high-speed mode will top out
the SPYDERCRANE at 3.5 mph.
There is some variaon between the SPYDERCRANEs when it
comes to travel speed with the lighter URW306/URW376 being
the fastest and the heavyweight URW706 being the slowest.

Your SPYDERCRANE’s Safees and Operator Aids
Safees
System Descripon
Holding Valves
 Each hydraulic cylinder used by the SPYDERCRANE (Extend Cylinders for boom telescoping and outrigger deploy-
ment and the Li Cylinder used to change the angle of the boom) is equipped with a holding valve.
 The holding valve prevents the cylinder from collapsing if the engine and/or hydraulic pump are shut down. Essen-
ally, if power or hydraulic pressure is lost, the SPYDERCRANE will “lock up” unl pressure is restored.
 Addionally, if the hydraulic oil line to a specic cylinder is cut, or bursts, the associated holding valve will lock up
ONLY the aected cylinder; allowing the others to funcon normally.
Locking Pawl  The winch of the SPYDERCRANE is equipped with a locking pawl that lowers and prevents the winch from rotang if
hydraulic pressure is lost.
An-Two Block
Safety
 The An-Two Block (A2B) Safety is designed to prevent the hook block from being WINCHED UP (or otherwise
raised) into the boom p. Allowing the hook block to smash into the boom p (“two-blocking”) can result in crical
damage to the wire rope, SPYDERCRANE, or the aached load. The A2B Safety prevents this by commanding a CMU
CODE 15 Funcon Kick-Out (FKO) when it is ACTIVATED.
The A2B Safety is acvated when:
 The A2B Switch is OPENED by the hook block being WINCHED UP to the point where it impacts and lis the
A2B Weight, which causes the A2B Switch to spring into the OPEN posion. This can also be caused if the
boom is extended WITHOUT WINCHING DOWN the hook (to prevent the hook from rising).
 The A2B Switch, or the electrical connecon to it, is broken.
Minimum Wire
Rope Safety
 The Minimum Wire Rope Safety is designed to lockout the WINCH DOWN command when acvated (CMU CODE
96). Its purpose is to prevent the operator from WINCHING DOWN unl all of the wire rope is unspooled o the
Wire Rope Drum.
Boom Stored
Safety
 The Boom Stored Safety is a limit switch that locks out the SLEW command when acvated. The Boom Stored Safe-
ty is used when storing the hook and boom. The URW094 IS NOT equipped with the Boom Stored Safety.
Safety Latch  Every hook block on the SPYDERCRANE is equipped with a spring-loaded safety latch that acts as a one-way gate.
 When a load is properly rigged and aached, the Safety Latch keeps the rigging from slipping o the hook.
Operator Aids
System Descripon
Load Moment Indicator (LMI)
 The LMI is bolt-on operator aid composed of a series of sensors connected to a central computer and
an operator interface called the LMI Display.
 The LMI provides real-me data on the SPYDERCRANE’s conguraon, including its rated load capaci-
ty and the weight of the aached load.
 All SPYDERCRANEs in these series are equipped with LMIs EXCEPT for the URW306-T.
Boom Angle Indicator
 A mechanical operator aid, the Boom Angle Indicator indicates the boom angle of the SPYDER-
CRANE’s boom and can be used in conjuncon with visually determining the Boom Stage to calculate
the SPYDERCRANE’s Working Radius.
Load Chart  The Load Chart displays the various Rated Load Capacies for the SPYDERCRANE, based on its Boom
Stage, Working Radius, and Deployment State.
Working Range Chart  The Working Range Chart indicates the approximate posion and length of the boom based on its
Working Radius, Boom Angle, and Boom Stage.

Operator Aids (connued)
System Descripon
Turnover Prevenon Device
(URW306-T ONLY)
 The Turnover Prevenon Device (TPD) is a system of load cells and a centralized computer (the TPD
Amplier) that monitors the stability of the SPYDERCRANE and can acvate a CMU CODE 15 FKO
when it detects that it is nearing its stability limits (do to overloading, or boom movement).
Visual Warning Systems
System Descripon
Outrigger Mode Indicator  The Outrigger Mode Indicator is the yellow lamp located on the top of the Operator Staon and it lights up
when the SPYDERCRANE is placed into Outrigger Mode.
Remote Control Indicator  The Remote Control Indicator is the orange lamp located on the top of the Operator Staon and it lights up
when the SPYDERCRANE is placed into Remote Control.
Run Indicator
 The Run Indicator is the green tower lamp that strobes whenever the SPYDERCRANE is running. The Run
Indicator is only installed on 095-/200-Series SPYDERCRANEs equipped with the 110V Baery-Electric
powerpack.
Radio Remote Receiver
Status Panel
 Located on outward facing panel of the Radio Remote Receiver (bolted to the rear of the Hydraulic Oil
Tank), the Status Panel is a series of red and green LEDs that can be used to troubleshoot problems with
TPD Amplier Status Pan-
el
 Located on the outward facing panel of the TPD Amplier (located inside the Operator Staon and viewa-
ble through a sheet metal cutout), the Status Panel is a series of orange, green and red LEDs that can be
used to troubleshoot problems with the Turnover Protecon Device (TPD). The TPD is only installed on 095
-/200-Series SPYDERCRANEs.
Unlike the audible alarms and warning systems, the visual warning indicators and lamps CANNOT be turned o.
Audible Alarms and Warning Systems
System Descripon
Safety Horn
 The Safety Horn is used to warn bystanders and can be acvated from:
 The Safety Horn Buon in the Travel Control Group (next to the Ignion Switch).
 The Safety Horn Buon in the Outrigger Control Group (next to the Crane/ Outrigger Mode Toggle).
 The Remote Safety Horn Buon on the Remote Controller.
Voice Mute Switch
 The voice mute switch, when set to the OFF posion turns o the audible signals from the voice warning sys-
tems and audible alerts system.
 The voice mute switch does not aect audible signals from the LMI, the TPD, or the outrigger mode alarm.
Outrigger Buzzer
Mute Switch  This is a mute switch specically for the outrigger mode alarm.
TPD Alarm Mute  The TPD alarm mute is an on/o toggle used to mute the alarms associated with the TPD.
While all of the audible alarms and indicators can be switched o, doing so WILL reduce your situaonal awareness. Audible alarms and
indicators should ONLY be turned o when the SPYDERCRANE is being operated where noise controls are in eect.

The LMI System
If your SPYDERCRANE is equipped with a Load Moment Indicator, or LMI (all models except the 306-T), you will need to understand
how to set it up and use for liing operaons. The LMI is actually composed of four major groups, the LMI Computer, the LMI A2B Cord
Reel and Cord, the various sensors that report to the LMI Computer, and the LMI Display. The LMI Display is the component that you, as
the operator, will work with on a daily basis.
The LMI Display is installed into its own console, which is installed on top of the Forward Console of the Operator’s Staon. When the
boom is stored, it sits to the roadside of the LMI Console. Before going over how to set-up and use the LMI Display, let’s go over the con-
trols and features of the LMI Display.

1. The LMI Screen:
This is the color LED screen that you
will use to view your SPYDERCRANE’s
operaonal conguraon and status.
2. The Selecon Dial
The selecon dial is used to scroll
through menus and screens.
3. Set Enter Fixed-Funcon Switch
This FFS is used to enter and save
any conguraon changes you make,
depending on the menu you are in.
4. Back to Ops Screen Fixed-Funcon
Switch
This FFS, when pushed, will exit
whatever menu/screen you are using
and return the display to the Opera-
ons Screen, without saving any
changes you’ve made.
LMI Display Controls (connued)
5. Back-One-Screen Fixed-Fixed Switch
This FFS, when pressed, will back the display up one menu/screen, without making any
conguraon changes.
6. Variable-Funcon Switches
These eight switches, which ank the sides of the LMI Screen, have their funcons
change based on what is displayed on the screen.
The LMI at Start-Up and how it is Connected to the SPYDERCRANE
As soon as you start the SPYDERCRANE, the LMI will begin its own start-up sequence. If uninterrupted, the LMI takes around 45 sec-
onds to go from o to fully started-up and ready for use. Since the LMI is a bolt-on operator aid, it is not aected by the SPYDERCRANE’s
mode of operaon, EXCEPT that if you push down on the Travel Control Interlock (to use the travel controls) power will be disconnected
from the LMI, interrupng its start-up.
During the LMI’s start-up sequence, you will see the LMI Display’s screen ash through mulple screens and menus. During this boot-
up and soware loading process, you should not touch any of the LMI Display controls OR any of the SPYDERCRANE’s crane controls. You
can sll control the outriggers without aecng the LMI.
The LMI is connected to the Crane Management Unit (CMU) of the SPYDERCRANE through a single circuit. When the LMI detects an
internal fault or an alert condion for the SPYDERCRANE (like an A2B condion), it triggers the CMU to generate a CODE 15 Funcon Kick-
Out (FKO). The CMU does not communicate to the LMI. While the SPYDERCRANE can operate WITHOUT the LMI, if the LMI is damaged it
will connue to trigger the CMU to CODE 15; in order to use the SPYDERCRANE with a non-funconal LMI, the LMI will need to be discon-
nected from the SPYDERCRANE.

12
The LMI at Start-Up
Aer you have completed deploying the outriggers and you’ve placed the SPYDERCRANE into Crane Mode, the CMU Code Indicator of
your SPYDERCRANE will be displaying CODE 15 (Funcon Kick-Out). During CODE 15, BOOM OUT, BOOM DOWN, SLEW, and WINCH UP are
all disabled (the funcons have been locked-out). The CODE 15 is being generated for two reasons, the rst is that Boom Stored Safety is
ENGAGED and the LMI is sending an alert to the CMU. In this case, the LMI is alerng the CMU because it has not been properly congured
for crane operaons.

This is screen is displayed aer the LMI has completed its start-up. If there is a red queson-mark superimposed, like it is in this image,
the LMI has no conguraon data saved and it requires conguring. If there is no queson-mark, then there is conguraon data already
saved and you only need to conrm the data (or change it, as required). Expect to see the queson-mark when you use the LMI for the rst
me that day or aer the SPYDERCRANE has been OFF for more than two hours.
On the sides of the LMI Operaons Mode Screen, you can see square icons next to ve of the Variable-Funcon Switches (VFS), this
indicates that a funcon has been assigned to these ve VFS.
1. Go to System Setup VFS
This VFS, when pushed, will take you to the System Setup Screen for the LMI. System Setup is NOT THE SAME as conguraon; system
setup is reserved for higher-level maintenance funcons. You only go to System Setup if you needed to make adjustments on a newly
installed system, or LMI component.
2. Go to System Informaon VFS
This VFS, when pushed, will take you to the System Informaon Screen for the LMI. Like System Setup, this screen is reserved for higher
-level maintenance acons. Typically, maintenance personnel who go through this screen to nd specic diagnoscs data; usually by
being prompng by an LMI Alert.
3. Go to Crane Conguraon VFS
This VFS, when pushed, will take you to the Crane Conguraon Screen. To congure the crane, in this context, is to idenfy several key
characteriscs into the LMI that will allow it monitor the SPYDERCRANE’s safety and stability. The Crane Conguraon Screen is where
you would enter in the conguraon data for the SPYDERCRANE’s Deployment State, whether it is using its main boom or an extension
jib, and whether it has been equipped with an Aerial Wok Plaorm. Every model SPYDERCRANE is dierent, so the LMI will only allow
you to make conguraon changes suitable for your SPYDERCRANE. For instance, the URW547 will NOT have an opon for a jib while
the URW706 has mulple Jib and Main Boom opons. We will cover how to properly congure your SPYDERCRANE later in this guide.
4. Select Part-of-Line VFS
The icon next to this VFS shows a hook graphic with a white text number. Every me you push this VFS, the number value will go up by
one. The valid entries are 1 through 4. For 300-, 500-, and 700-Series, the primary hook block is the 4-Part Hook Block and the 1-Part
Hook Block is an oponal secondary hook block opon. We will cover conguring parts-of-line later in this guide.
5. Alerts Acknowledge VFS
This VFS, when pushed, will take you to the Alerts Acknowledge Screen, which displays any and all alerts being generated by the LMI.

Conguring the LMI for First-Time Use
If you are using the SPYDERCRANE for the rst me that day, you will need to
congure the LMI for use.
Aer the LMI has completed its start-up sequence , it will display the Congura-
on Required Screen. The Conguraon Require Screen has faint line drawing of the
deployed SPYDERCRANE in the background and a large red queson mark in the
foreground. Since the LMI has not been congured, the CMU will also be generang
a CODE 15. To begin using the SPYDERCRANE for liing operaons, you will need to congure the LMI.
The rst step is to press the Go To Crane Conguraon VFS...

The Crane Conguraon Screen VFS’s
The Crane Conguraon Screen contains all of the user-selectable crane conguraon opons for your specic SPYDERCRANE. Depend-
ing on your model SPYDERCRANE, you may see dierent opons than the ones depicted in this graphic, which is from a URW376. At a mini-
mum, you will need to congure the Deployment State and whether an AWP is installed.
1. Congure Deployment State VFS
When you press this VFS, you will be taken to the Congure Deployment State Screen, which idenes the available Deployment States
for your SPYDERCRANE.
2. Congure AWP Status VFS
When you press this VFS, you will be taken to the Congure AWP Status Screen, where you will select whether you have installed an
AWP.
3. Congure Searcher Hook Status VFS
When you press this VFS, you will be taken to the Congure Searcher Hook Status Screen, where you will select whether you have in-
stalled a Searcher Hook.
3. Congure Boom Status VFS
When you press this VFS, you will be taken to the Congure Boom Screen, where you will select a boom and jib conguraon from the
available opons. For every SPYDERCRANE OTHER than the URW706, the Congure Boom Screen will have VFS’s that display the avail-
able boom and jib lt opons.
5. Selecon Dial FFS
For the URW706, there are more than eight dierent boom and jib installaon and lt opons. When conguring the boom of the UR-
W706, you will use the Selecon Dial FFS to scroll through the various opons. The name of the opon will be displayed in the text box
on the top of the screen and the image in the center of the screen will depict the selected opon.

14
Selecng and Saving a Crane Conguraon Opon
When you push one of the go to opon conguraon VFS’s, you will be taken to the appropriate conguraon screen where you need
to select the appropriate conguraon opon AND save it...
Conguring the Deployment State
The Deployment State Conguraon Screen shows a noonal deployed
SPYDERCRANE from an overhead view. Each selectable Deployment State will
have its own icon and VFS on the le side of the LMI Screen. In most cases,
there will be three available Deployment States: NOT-EXT, HALF-EXT, and MAX
-EXT.
When you select the Deployment State Conguraon VFS that matches
your SPYDERCRANE’s actual Deployment State, the icon next to the VFS will
switch to a dark blue background.
Once you have selected the Deployment State that you want, you will
need to push the Set Enter VFS TWICE, once to set the conguraon you have
selected and again to save it to the LMI Computer.
If you have successfully congured the Deployment State, the LMI Screen
will revert to the Crane Conguraon Screen and the Congure Deployment
State VFS will have a dark blue background to its icon. This signals to you that
the Deployment State has been congured and that you can move on to the
next crane conguraon opon.
When selecng a Deployment State conguraon in the LMI, it is im-
portant that you select the Deployment State that the SPYDERCRANE is actual-
ly in. As a safety measure, the LMI system monitors limit switches associated
with the horizontal extension cylinder of the outriggers and it can determine
whether the outriggers have actually been deployed to MAX-EXT, HALF-EXT, or
NOT-EXT. If the LMI detects that the Deployment State of the outriggers IS
NOT the same as the one that you selected in the conguraon screen, it will
index the load chart appropriate for the Deployment State that the LMI has
determined is correct.
Conguring the Searcher Hook and
AWP Status
Seng the Searcher Hook and AWP installaon
status works exactly the same way, so we will describe
them together.
When you select the Congure AWP/Searcher
Hook Status VFS, you will be taken to the appropriate
status conguraon screen. For both the AWP and the
Searcher Hook, the choices are either one is equipped
or one is not equipped.
Select the appropriate VFS, which will turn the
icon next to the VFS dark blue and then push the Set
Enter FFS twice to save the conguraon selecon and
return to the Crane Conguraon Screen.

15
Conguring the Boom and Jib Status
Again focusing on the URW376, when you select the Boom
and Jib Conguraon Screen, you will need to select the boom and
jib conguraon of your SPYDERCRANE. For the URW376, you
have ve opons: main boom (jib stored), jib installed at Tilt Angle
0°, jib installed at Tilt Angle 20°, jib installed at Tilt Angle 40°, or jib
installed at Tilt Angle 60°.
When you select a VFS on this screen, icon next to the VFS will
have a dark blue background, and pressing Set Enter FFS twice will
save the selected conguraon and return you to the Crane Con-
guraon Screen.
If you have congured all of the selectable conguraon op-
ons, the available VFS’s will all have dark blue backgrounds, indi-
cang that the conguraon item has been saved. Pressing the Set
Enter FFS will return you to LMI Operaons Mode Screen.
The Operaons Screen VFS’s
The Operaons Screen is the one you will use the most when operang the SPYDERCRANE for crane operaons. Before going over the
details on the screen itself, we will go over the ve acve VFS’s for the Operaons Screen.
1. Set Crane Limits VFS
This VFS will take you to the Crane Limits Screen where you can set warnings based on boom angle, working radius, and p height.
2. Brightness Control VFS
This VFS will increase the brightness of the LMI screen by 10%. There are six sengs (50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100%), and when
you reach 100% brightness and press the VFS again, it will restart at 50% brightness.
3. Return to Operaons Screen VFS
This VFS, when pressed, will return you to the Operaons Screen without making conguraon changes or saving changes in progress.
This is a persistent VFS and will appear in mulple screens.
4. Alert Acknowledge VFS
This VFS, when pressed, will take you to the Alerts Screen of the LMI.
5. Mute Alarm VFS
This VFS, when pressed, will mute any alarm the LMI is generang through its internal speaker. If you mute an alarm and subsequently
another alert is generated, a new alarm will sound and must be muted separately.
Compleng the Crane Conguraon
When you return to the LMI Operaons Mode Screen, the su-
perimposed queson-mark will be gone. From this screen, you need
to set the parts-of-line that will correspond the installed Hook Block
(either 1-Part or 4-Part).
Push the Parts-of-Line VFS unl the number matches and then
push the Set Enter FFS twice to go to the Operaons Screen.

The Operaons Screen Data Elements
The data elements on the Operaons Screen are non-interacve data blocks that provide you situaonal awareness informaon on
your SPYDERCRANE’s current conguraon, load capacity, and alert status.
1. Load Bar
The Load Bar is a three-color horizontal bar that provides an at-a-glance status of the SPYDERCRANE’s overall stability as a funcon
of its load fracon. Load fracon is the actual load weight being held by the SPYDERCRANE’s boom divided by its rated load capacity
and is expressed as a percentage.
As the load fracon increases, the Load Bar will begin to “light up” from the le-to-the-right. A load fracon of up to 79-precent
will light up the green secon of the Load Bar. A load fracon from 80-percent to 99-percent will light up the yellow secon of the Load
Bar. A load fracon of more than 99-percent will light up the red secon of the Load Bar. The specic load fracon is displayed in a
small text box in the right secon of the Load Bar.
2. Boom Length Data Block
The Boom Length Data Block indicates the length of the boom in feet and tenths of feet. This boom is sll in its stored condion so
this the minimum boom length.
3. Working Radius Data Block
The Working Radius Data Block indicates the working radius of the SPYDERCRANE in feet and tenths of feet.
Working radius is calculated from the boom length and boom angle of the SPYDERCRANE.
4. Tip Height Data Block
The Tip Height Data Block reports the calculated p height of the SPYDERCRANE in feet and tenths of feet.
5. Installed Hook Block Indicator
This indicator displays the currently installed hook block.
6. Boom Angle Data Block
This data block indicates the boom angle in degrees and tenths of degrees. This boom is sll stored so it is registering as half-a-
degree below the horizontal.
7. Indexed Load Chart Indicator
The indexed load chart indicator displays the le number of the load chart that the LMI is using (indexed), which is based on the
SPYDERCRANE’s deployment state. “1” is the MAX-EXT load chart. “2” is the HALF-EXT load chart. “3” is the NOT-EXT load chart.
8. A2B Acve Alert
During normal operaons, this indicator is faded out. When the LMI detects an An-Two-Block (A2B) condion, the indicator lights
up in bright red.
9. Rated Load Capacity Indicator
The rated load capacity indicator displays the rated load capacity of the SPYDERCRANE based on the deployment state/indexed
load chart, working radius, boom length, and installed hook block (parts-of-line).
10. Actual Weight Indicator
The Actual Weight Indicator displays the approximate weight being held by the SPYDERCRANE’s boom, including the hook block,
rigging, and the part(s) of wire rope between the Sheave Pin and the hook block.
11. Alerts Pop-Up
The Alert Pop-Up appears on the boom right of the screen and can be color-coded and contains a 4- to 6-digit alphanumeric code
that can be diagnosed. Typically, a yellow background pop-up indicates a user-entered condion has been met (like an LMI Limit has
been reached). A red background pop-up indicates an operaons-halng alert, or error, condion exists within the LMI system.

Using the LMI
The LMI Operaons Mode Screen versus the Operaons Screen
 If the LMI starts-up and the LMI Mode Operaons Screen has a red queson-
mark superimposed over the central graphic you MUST make conguraon
changes before you can go to the Operaons Screen.
 If the LMI starts-up and the LMI Mode Operaons Screen DOES NOT have a red
queson-mark superimposed over the central graphic you can go directly to the
Operaons Screen by pushing the Set Enter FFS.
Using the Load Bar
 The Load Bar tells you the SPYDERCRANE’s load fracon, the closer your SPYDER-
CRANE actual load weight is to its rated load capacity, the greater the fracon.
 When the Load Bar is in the red, the load fracon is 100% and the LMI will direct the CMU to execute a CODE 15 FKO; at that point you
can only lower the load to ground or reduce the working radius.
 The Load Bar is funconally ed to the Safety Beacon, located on your SPYDERCRANE’s roadside, on the outside of the Operator’s Sta-
on; when you running the SPYDERCRANE in remote control, you can use the Safety Beacon to gain situaonal awareness: when the
Safety Beacon’s yellow lamp is lit, the load fracon is between 80% and 99%, for instance.
Understanding How the LMI Measures the Actual Load Weight
The LMI system includes a pair of transducers in the Li Cylinder: one measures cylinder pressure at the base of the cylinder and the
other measures pin pressure. When a load is aached to the end of the SPYDERCRANE’s boom, that weight is applying pressure on the pin,
forcing it into the cylinder. In response, the SPYDERCRANE’s hydraulic system is applying hydraulic pressure in the cylinder to counteract
the pin pressure. When the LMI is reporng an actual load weight, what it is actually measuring is the hydraulic pressure needed to over-
come the pressure caused by the load weight.
When the load is moving, from either crane movement or from load swing, the extra momentum and kinec energy is going to in-
crease pressure and the actual load weight reading on the LMI will increase, or oscillate up and down. The actual load weight reading is
most accurate when the load is staonary.
Raising the Boom to Maximum and the CODE 15 FKO
When you BOOM UP to maximum, the pin of the Li Cylinder is extended to its physical limit (“boomed out”). When this happens,
the hydraulic system will aempt to compensate by adding more and more pressure to get the pin to move. Since the pin CAN’T move any
further, even when the hydraulic system reaches its maximum safe pressure limit, the LMI will interpret this as an overload situaon. Basi-
cally, the LMI will suddenly think that the load fracon has jumped to over 150% and it will generate an overloading alert. The LMI will send
this alert signal to the CMU and the CMU will generate a CODE 15 FKO.
Recovering the SPYDERCRANE when the Boom is raised to 80°
When the CMU is reporng CODE 15, all of the funcons that would normally INCREASE working radius are disable (“kicked-out”). Un-
fortunately, this includes BOOM DOWN; meaning that you cannot recover the boom when it has been raised to 80°, by normal means. In
this case, the only way you will be able to lower the boom is by temporarily disabling the CMU’s safety funcons.
Push and hold the Safety Bypass Switch to bypass ALL of the SPYDERCRANE’s
safety systems. While holding the Safety Bypass Switch with your le hand, you will
need to use your right hand to command a BOOM DOWN. You only need to lower
the boom three to seven degrees, so apply BOOM DOWN power SLOWLY. If you
watch the LMI Load Bar, you will see it suddenly drop back into the green secon;
when this happens, you can release the Safety Bypass Switch and connue normal
operaons.
The Safety Bypass Switch is located between the Le-Side and Forward Con-
soles, below the CMU Code Indicator; next to your le knee.

The 110V Baery QuiQ Charger Status Panel
QuiQ Charger Status Panel
The QuiQ Charger and its baery array are
installed to the top of the carrier, underneath
the stored boom. The QuiQ Charger Status Pan-
el can be viewed through a cutout on the baery
array cover.
Depending on the build-date of your
SPYDERCRANE, the status panel can be tucked in
prey far under the cover and you may need to
unlock and move Outriggers #1 and #2 out of the
way.
Regardless of the build date, the QuiQ
Charger Status Panel is always viewable from the
roadside of the SPYDERCRANE.
QuiQ Charger Status Panel
 AMMETER LAMPS (Bulk Charge State)
 Displays approximate baery charge level during the bulk charging phase (up to
60%).
 If FLASHING, the baery array is overheang and NOT CHARGING.
 ABSORPTION PHASE INDICATOR
 If SOLID YELLOW, baeries are at 80% (Bulk Phase Complete)
 If FLASHING YELLOW, baeries are disconnected
 CHARGE COMPLETION INDICATOR
 If SOLID GREEN, baeries are charged, charger is in Maintenance Phase
 If FLASHING GREEN, the absorpon charge phase is ended, and the nishing
phase is in process.
 AC INDICATOR
 If SOLID AMBER, AC Power input is good
 If FLASHING AMBER, AC Power Voltage is LOW, check voltage at power point
and/or extension cord
 FAULT INDICATOR
 If FLASHING RED, Quiq Charger has an internal error; aempt re-boot.
 If ashing returns, check the ash code for maintenance support:
 Single ash (ash-o-ash…):
 This indicates that there is a problem with the connecon between
the charger and the baery OR the baery array is out of its safe
operang temperature range (14- to 122-degrees, Fahrenheit).
 Double ash (ash-ash-o-ash-ash-o…):
 This indicates that detected baery voltage is out-of-range (less
than 36V, or more than 55.2V).
 Triple ash:
 This indicates a charging meout, either because the baery array
is NOT reaching the required voltage OR the baery charger is
overheang. This could be due to a bad connecon to the baery
array.
 Four ashes:
 This indicates that the baery array cannot be charged to mini-
mum voltage. This is could be due to a damaged baery cell.
 Five ashes:
 This indicates that charging has stopped due to overheang within
the 110V baery system. This could be due to insucient airow
around the SPYDERCRANE.
 Six ashes:
 A baery charger internal fault, aempt unplugging for more than
15 seconds and plugging back in.
