i4500 Lattice Boom Crane Instruction Manual

The purpose of this manual is to provide the customer with the operating
procedures essential for the promotion of proper machine operation for its
intended use. The importance of proper usage cannot be overstressed. All
information in this manual should be read and understood before any attempt is
made to operate the machine.
Since the manufacturer has no direct control over machine application and
operation, conformance with good safety practice in this area is the responsibility
of the user and of the operating personnel.
All procedures herein are based on the use of the system under proper operating
conditions, with no deviations from the original design. Alteration and/or
modication of the equipment are strictly forbidden without written approval from
RaycoWylie Systems.
The i4500 RaycoWylie Systems Crane Information Center must be regarded
only as an aid to the operator. When the parameters are set correctly, the
indicator will warn the crane operator of an approaching overload condition that
could damage the equipment, property, and/or cause injury to the operator or
people working near the crane and its load.
This system must never be used, under any circumstances, as a substitute for the
good judgment of a crane operator when carrying out approved crane-operating
procedures. The crane operator is responsible for the safe operation of the crane.
The indicator equipment will not necessarily prevent crane damage due to
overloading and related causes if not set properly.
Before operating a crane equipped with a RaycoWylie system RCI, the
operator must carefully read the information in both this manual and the crane
manufacturer operator’s manual. He must also be aware of all the federal,
state and local safety standards and regulations applicable to his job. Correct
functioning of the system depends upon routine daily inspection. Any suspected
faults or apparent damage should be immediately reported to the responsible
authority before using the crane.
