USER LIABILITY
Before using the crane, read the following instructions and precautions.
The non-application of these precautions may result in damaging the crane, and may even hurt users.
Inform appropriately the workers in charge of using and maintaining the work equipment, and notably on the conditions of use of work equipment, instructions, or guidelines concerning them.
Check the lifting devices:
- Check when initiating a task, upon fi rst use of the device, whether new or second-hand, in the workshop
- Check upon start-up, to be performed upon dismounting and refi tting, modifi cation, major repair or accident caused by a device failure.
- General periodical checks, performed on a regular basis, aiming at timely detection of any damage likely to create a hazard.
These checks concern devices powered mechanically as well as devices powered by human force. The result of these checks must be recorded in the safety log opened by the site manager.
When devices are faulty, forbid their use or repair immediately.
For manual handling, provide the staff with the individual protections required: safety shoes, preferably in materials resistant to hydrocarbons, protection gloves, etc.
In mechanical handling, unless during tests or proofi ng, never lift a load exceeding that specifi ed on the device.
When using a crane, the following must be ensured:
1. the maximum operating load (1) must be mentioned on the crane,
2. each jack must be checked:
- every year in the case of normal use,
- every 6 months in the case of heavy use,
- immediately after use in special conditions, notably after an accidental overload.
Cranes must be used only to lift or move a load.
WARNINGS !
1. Before lifting a load, ensure it is on a stable, fl at, horizontal and clean surface (no grease nor oil) (2).
2. Check the load to lift is perfectly immobilised (3).
3. To support the load, use another appropriate means, e.g. a FACOM trolley
4. To prevent the assembly from slipping, always centre the load on the crane (6) using the FACOM spreader DL.101.
5. Never use extensions (5).
6. Check the oil level regularly (8). Conversely, too much oil can damage or alter the adjustment of the devices (see « instructions before use «).
7. When changing the oil, never use brake fl uid, alcohol, glycerine, detergents, motor oil or used oil. Using dirty oil can cause major internal damage to your equipment. For more information, contact your FACOM
distributor directly. FACOM recommends using the oil reference WA.21.
8. Check the precaution label is legible at all times.When retrofi tting your equipment, these labels are available (A) as well as the operating instructions (Q.NU-DL.5-20EU/1008).
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PERFECT USE
1. Before each use, check the crane. You must particularly check for oil leaks, damaged or missing parts.
2. Faulty parts must be replaced by skilled staff with FACOM original parts.
3. Each part in the crane must be checked in case of load considered abnormal or following a shock.
ASSEMBLY
As we are handling heavy elements, it is essential to carry out the following assembly processes with the help of other people.
1. To assemble the legs (B1 and B2) of
limit (B6) which coincides with the window. With the legs on the ground, introduce the rivet (B3) in the outlets
to prevent it from falling out, hence securing the legs to the base of the crane. Perform the reverse operation to fold the legs.
2. DL.10EU cranes are assembled by positioning the column (E) on the legs (F), securing it with the screws provided. Beforehand, wedge the wheels to avoid the movement of the crane. The arm (G) is then assembled
with its slide (H) to the column and fi nally to the hydraulic unit (I) on a support located on the column. The operation is completed with the securing of the central piston to the arm (G) using a rivet and two elastic
rings.
USE AND OPERATION
1. Prior to using the crane, the hydraulic circuit needs to be drained in order to eliminate any air from the valve system of the hydraulic unit. From behind the crane, turn the group (9) handle 90º whilst pumping the
hydraulic unit several times. By releasing the handle (9), the crane is ready for use. Turn the hydraulic unit to activate the pump from the most comfortable work position.
2. To lift the load, activate the lever (10) which enables you to choose a comfortable position due to the fact it is revolving. If lifting an engine, secure it at the points recommended by the manufacturer.
3. If it is necessary to use the crane in other positions, the slide should be perfectly fi tted to the limiting screw (7).
4. To lower the load, turn the handle (9). This system enables the lowering to be regulated and controlled manually and precisely.
The crane will stop the lowering process when the handle is not activated.
5. ollowing use of the crane, the piston of the hydraulic unit should be fully retracted. First move the slide to its initial position (7).
MAINTENANCE
Important: Both the maintenance and repair of this crane may only be carried out by qualifi ed and authorized personnel, who as a result of their training and experience are familiar with the hydraulic systems used in these devices.
1. Clean and lubricate the axes of the moving parts of the crane (9) at regular intervals. The crane should be kept clean and protected from aggressive conditions at all times.
2. Only original spare parts should be used.
3. Withdraw the crane from service if it is suspected that it has been subjected to abnormal loads or has suffered any type of knock until the problem has been resolved.
4. If the oil level needs to be checked or refi lled, dismantle the hydraulic unit and with the piston fully retracted, remove the fi ller plug and drain its contents into a container. With the hydraulic in a horizontal position,
proceed to introduce the necessary volume for each model as indicated in these instructions. Avoid the entrance of any dirt with the new oil.
Important: An excess of oil over the volume required may affect the operation of the crane.
5. Only use hydraulic oil, HL or HM type, with an ISO grade of cinematic viscosity of 30cSt at 40ºC or of an Engler viscosity of 3 at 50ºC.
Extremely important: Never use brake fl uid.
6. When the crane is not in use, it should be fully retracted in the lowest position so as to minimize piston corrosion (11). It is recommendable to apply an anti-corrosion product to the main piston and to the pump.
7. Store the crane in a dry, clean place, out of the reach of children.
8. At the end of the useful life of the crane, drain off the oil and hand it over to an authorised agent and dispose of the remaining parts in accordance with local regulations.
9. Both the repair kit, which exclusively contains the retainers and joints and the spare part sets must be ordered using the reference assigned in the table.
GUARANTEE
Type D = 2 years. See the general conditions in the FACOM catalogue or the FACOM price list.
Subject to compliance with all of the above instructions.
CR.6 (4).
DL.5 cranes, it is necessary to position the crane on the ground with the wheels in the position indicated in Figure (C). Start by extracting the rivet (B3) turning it until its fi xed
(B5 and B5), making the fi xed limit coincide (B6) with the outlet window. Turn the rivet slightly in order
