FOREWORD:

  maintaining your Grove Crane.
• Before placing the crane in service, take time to thoroughly familiarize
  yourself with the contents of this manual. After all sections have been read
  and understood, retain the manual for future reference in a readily accessible
  location.
• The Grove Crane has been designed for maximum performance with minimum
  maintenance. With proper care, years of trouble-free service can be expected.
  Constant improvement and engineering progress makes it necessary that we
  reserve the right to make specification and equipment changes without
  notice.
• Engine operating procedures and routine maintenance procedures are supplied
  in a separate manual with each crane, and should be referred to for detailed
  information.
• Information in this manual does not replace federal, state, or local regulations,
  safety codes, or insurance requirements.
  Any reference to Krueger in this manual is to be used for general information
  only. For detailed operating instructions of the Krueger System, refer to the
  Krueger Operator’s Handbook.

  text are marked by a vertical bar ( f l on the margin of the page opposite the
  change.
• In the event some text is removed, and is not replaced with new or changed
  material, a deletion arrow is used where the text was deleted.
