INTRODUCTION
READ CAREFULLY
Congratulations on your purchase. You are the owner of what we consider to be one of the leading
cranes in the service body field. This crane will provide you with both quality and safety if you
follow the guidelines of working with a well-maintained piece of equipment in a safe manner using
the correct personal protective equipment (“PPE”) for your work environment. Your crane carries a
five(5) year warranty on all parts, weldments, and a three year warranty on the remote system.
For continued quality service, carefully read the information contained in this manual before
operating the equipment. This manual provides basic guidelines for the safe and proper operation of
the crane. After you have read and understood the material in this manual, work with your crane by
learning basic operations, safely.
To prevent injury to yourself or others, maintain your crane, and operate it safely by knowing your
surroundings. Look out for such things as overhead wiring, overloading of the crane, side loading of
the crane and wearing of the prescribed PPE.
The users must have a working knowledge of existing Federal, State and Local codes and
regulations governing the safe use and maintenance of this crane.
This crane was tested to conform to the following code:
ANSI – ASME B30.5a – 2002
MOBILE AND LOCOMOTIVE CRANES
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers
This crane carries a five (5) year warranty, but the warranty will be null and void if the crane is
misused or abused by overloading, side loading, pulling a load through open terrain, lack of
maintenance as directed in this manual, or making modifications to the crane without the express
permission of Summit Truck Bodies.
Treat the equipment with respect and service it regularly.
These two things can add up to a safer working environment, longer equipment
life, and prevention of loss of life and limb.
Summit Truck Bodies issues a limited warranty certificate with each unit sold.
