INTRODUCTION:

• This handbook provides important information for the operator and
  safety personnel of the RT865BXL Series Grove Crane.
• The 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 with inverted style stabilizer (jack) cylinders
  are integral with the carrier 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 the superstructure rotates from the travel
  position.
  The superstructure is capable of 360 degree rotation in either direction.
• All Crane functions are controlled from the fully-enclosed cab
  mounted on the superstructure. The crane is equipped with a five section
  boom. Lifting is provided by a main hoist and an optional auxiliary
  hoist.
