WARNING
If traversing rough or unstable terrain can not be avoided, use
extreme caution and constantly monitor crane stability.
o.
Having ground personnel direct all crane movements, relocate the crane in
accordance with crane "On Rubber" and in the "Pick and Carry" mode operation.
p.
Upon arrival at the new crane location, lower the outrigger floats, level the crane,
and re-configure the Load Moment Indicator (LMI) system for Front Hoist,
Outrigger Position 100%, and Two (2) Parts of Line.
q.
Open the rear pintle hook. Extend the boom and raise the boom to a point where
the weight of the Pile Driving System no longer rests on the rear pintle hook.
Remove the lead transportation chain, still connected to the shaft on the foot roller,
from the rear pintle hook.
r.
Remove the lead transportation chain from the shaft on the foot roller.
s.
Disengage the SWING LOCK pin by releasing the SWING LOCK pin control lever
in the superstructure cab.
t.
Using the crane boom, lower the lead tower to the ground.
CAUTION
The spotter slide pin should not be allowed to engage a hole in the
lead tower lower than the seventh hole up from the foot roller.
This will ensure that the spotter will not make contact with and
damage the spare tire mounting bracket.
u.
Lower the spotter using the pile line (aux. hoist) to the seventh hole up from the
foot roller (or higher if required). Pull the spotter slide pin back and hold. Remove
the retainer pin, release the spotter slide pin, and it will engage the hole in the back
of the lead tower.
v.
Disconnect the pile line (aux. hoist), wire rope lifting sling, and headache ball from
the center lifting lug on the spotter.
w.
Using the hammer line (main hoist), raise the impact hammer off of the pile gate or
pile gate stop. If the pile gate has been removed for sheet pile driving operations,
retract the pile gate stop into the front of the lead tower and reinsert the quick-
release pin.
