Handling suspended loads
This machine was specifically designed for excavation/loading
application. Handling suspended loads, as a completion
of excavation/loading application, is admitted on condition
that the machine is equipped with the specific device supplied
by HITACHI Construction Machinery on request. For
handling suspended loads strictly follow the national laws
on this subject, the rules indicated below.
WARNING: Load holding and lowering pilot operated
valves located on cylinders, overload warning device,
the lifting capacity chart in the cabin and hook on the
“A” link are SAFETY DEVICES being part of the version
for suspended load handling. If one of these devices
is missing or damaged, the machine cannot be used
for handling suspended loads.
WARNING: Before handling suspended loads, check
that valves are not damaged or unusually noisy. If any
defect is discovered, contact your dealer and do not
use the machine for handling suspended loads. Lifting
devices (hooks, chains, etc) must be undamaged
and not worn. Check before use. Follow the current
laws to check these devices. (they are not supplied
with the machine)
WARNING: To avoid any possible accident, do not
exceed the machine’s rated lifting capacity. If the
machine is not on level ground, lifting capacity is reduced.
Set the engine power suitable for the required
hydraulic power. Estimate (if not known) the weight
of the object to handle and compare with the data on
the lifting chart in the cabin. Do not lift loads whose
weight exceeds the maximum load on the chart.
Before starting lifting operations, press switch (1) to
engage the overload warning device sensor. When
reaching the limit load the sensor activates an acoustic
device. Fix the load by special hook (2) on the “A”
link , by using coupling devices and chains suitable
for the load to lift.
