Safety Precautions
WARNING
Failure to comply with these rules and precautions, may result in loss of load, damage to, or failure of the equipment, or even personal injury.
1.
DO NOT exceed the load capacity for each jib position (as marked on the jib). The capacities for each model are shown in tables on the inside front cover.

IMPORTANT:
If the load capacity decal becomes worn or illegible, contact Clarke
International Spares Division, on 020 8558 6696 for replacement.
2.
Ensure that the equipment is correctly assembled, and that all the bolts and pins are in place and secure.
3.
Only use chains, slings, hooks etc. with a rated capacity equal to, or greater than that of the load. Check that they are secure and will not slip under load.
4.
Only use the crane on a solid, flat, level surface which is capable of taking the load. Avoid moving the crane over rough surfaces.
5.
Lower the load as much as possible before moving the crane. Do not use the crane to transport loads.
6.
Do not stand under the load, or above the jib. Be aware that if the load slips or falls, the jib may rise suddenly.
7.
Use appropriate safety equipment, such as protective footwear, when using this crane.
8.
Ensure the crane operator is skilled and trained in both operation and safety aspects.
9.
Always inspect the crane before use to ensure it is in good condition, and replace any damaged or worn parts.
10. When replacing parts, use only those supplied by Clarke International. Refer to Parts List.
11. Ensure that the crane is properly maintained, and lubricated at all times, and that no rust or other forms of corrosion is allowed to weaken any part of the crane.
12. If the crane has been subjected to an abnormal load or shock, it should be removed from service immediately and fully inspected by qualified personnel.
Preparation For Use.
Figures in brackets refer to parts list on page 7.
The crane is packed, fully assembled, in the fully folded position. On unpacking check to ensure that no damage occurred during transit, and that all parts are present according to the packing list.
1.
Withdraw the locking pins (Item 21), lower the legs, and lock in position with the same pin, securing with the ‘R’ clip (Item 20).
2.
Release the stabilising foot (Item A), by removing the ‘R’ clip (Item 19), and rotating the foot so that it faces upwards. Secure in position with ‘R’ clip.
3.
Before operating the crane, remove the transit plug from the back of the hydraulic ram unit , and replace with the vent plug supplied. retain the transit plug which should be re-fitted if the crane is stored or transported horizontally.
3.
Test the operation of the crane without a load (refer to ‘Operation’ for raising and lowering the jib). If the ram operation appears ‘spongy’, it is possible that air may have entered the system. Raising the lowering the jib a few times will dispel any air and normalise the ram operation.
If the jib does not reach its full height, the rams hydraulic oil may need topping up, (ref ‘Maintenance’).
Operation
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to lift, ensure the hook is directly above the point of lift, and the point of lift is directly above the centre of gravity on the load.
Select the required jib arm length according to the load to be lifted and access available. Always use the shortest jib length possible to give the greatest safety margin and stability. Lock the jib extension into position with the link pin ( Item 13), and ‘R’ clip (Item 20).
To raise the jib arm, screw the large valve knob (Item B), on the hydraulic ram, fully clockwise to close the control valve. Pump the hydraulic handle slowly to take the weight, check the stability of the load before pumping the jib up to the desired height.
To lower the jib, slowly unscrew the valve knob (item B), the more the valve is released, the faster the load will lower.
Take care when lowering heavy loads
Maintenance
1.
Always inspect the crane before use for visible signs of damage, leaking hydraulic fluid, loose, worn or missing parts.
2. Periodically check the crane for any damage, such as bent, loose or missing bolts and pins. Do not use a damaged crane. The bolts and pins used in the crane are specially designed for use, at the cranes’ rated capacity. If replacements arerequired, contact CLARKE International Spares Department.
Do not use substitute components.
3. Lubricate all the moving parts monthly with a general purpose oil or grease as appropriate. Keep a light film of oil on the ram to prevent rust.
4. If the jib does not reach its full height, check the ram hydraulic oil level as follows: a. Raise the jib to the horizontal position and support the end.
b. Remove the ram to jib link pin (item 11).
c. Lower the ram fully by unscrewing the large valve knob (Item B). With the ram in the fully retracted position, the oil should reach the level of the vent plug.
Top up if necessary with Clarke hydraulic oil (part number 3050830).
NOTE: We recommend that the hydraulic oil is changed after every 100 hours of operation.
5. Replace the vent plug and re-attach the ram to the jib.
NOTE: When not in use, the crane should be stored with the jib in its lowest position so there is no load on the ram, and the ram is not xposed to the elements.
If the crane is to be stored, or transported horizontally, the transit plug must be fitted to avoid leakage.
