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 information for the operator and safety personnel of the
  RT8658 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 three speed 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 form the fully-enclosed cab mounted on the superstructure.
• The crane is equipped with a full power, four section, sequenced
  boom with a cable synchronized fly section. Additional reach is obtained by utilizing
  the optional 35 to 60 foot offsettable boom extension. Lifting is provided by
  a main hoist and an optional auxiliary hoist.
