FOREWORD:

• This handbook has been compiled to assist you in properly operating· and·
  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.

INTRODUCTION:

• This Handbook provides important information’for the operator of the
  Model RT860 Grove Crane
• The rough terrain crane incorporates an all welded steel frame, using
  planetary drive axles to provide four-wheel drive. Axle steering is
  accomplished utilizing hydraulic steer cylinders. The engine is
  mounted at the rear of the crane and provides motive power through a
  remote mounted, six speed forward and reverse transmission. Hydraulic,
  double box, sliding beam outriggers are integral with the frame.
• The carrier frame incorporates an integral fifth wheel, to which the
  rear axle is mounted, to provide axle oscillation. Axle oscillation
  lockout is automatic when U1e superstructure rotates from the travel
  position.
• The superstructure is capable of 360° rotation in either direction. All
  crane functions!; are controlled from the fully;.enclosea cab mounted
  on the superstructure. The crane is equipped with a three-section,
  trapezoidal, cable-synchronized boom. Additional reach is obtained
  by utilizing a standard boom extension swingaway. Lifting is provided
  by a main hoist and an optional auxiliary hoist.
