Tires - Check for proper pressure before travel-
ing. Tires should only be checked when cold

objects imbedded in tread.
Cable and Blocks - Inspect hoist cable, hoist
block, hook latch and boom attachment for
readiness.
Boom Head - Inspect cable retention pins and
hair pin totters at boom head for correct installa-
tion.

damage from slack.
Cable - Reeve hoist cable as required.
Anti-Two Block System - Inspect anti-two
block switch found on boom head for damage.
Check for free movement of the counterweight
attached to switch. Be sure counterweight is
secured around correct line of hoisting cable in
proper manner. Inspect all electrical connections
and wires as well as the entire length of cable at-
tached to the cable reel and its connections for
evidence of excessive wear, damage or improper
installation. Check cable reel for proper tension
and to insure that reel is free to rotate. Verify
visual and audible warning devices operation by
lifting counterweight.
CAUTION
If disconnects malfunction and
hook block is drawn into the
boom point, vehicle may be
damaged. Care should be taken
when performing disconnect test.

The LRT 110 Crane is equipped with disconnects
on control linkage. A check of this system
should be made prior to lifting. Hoist hook block
so that actual contact between block and anti-two
block counterweight is made. If all functions are
operating properly, winch hoisting will cease and
boom will not extend or lower. Should any of
these functions continue, disconnects are not
working and a complete system check must be
made. Boom retract, boom raise and winch
down functions remain active and will be unaf-
fected by anti-two block system.
