  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.

  customer support. Your local dealer is the best equipped and most knowledgeable to assist you for
  parts, service and warranty issues. They have the facilities, parts, factory trained personnel, and
  the information to assist you in a timely manner. We request that you first contact them for
  assistance. If you feel you need factory assistance, please ask the dealer’s service
  management to coordinate the contact on your behalf.
• Engine operating procedures and routine maintenance procedures are supplied in a separate manual
  with each crane, and should be referred to for detailed information.
