Demag AC 50-1 All Terrain Crane Maintenance Manual

The Demag AC 50-1 is a multi-axle all terrain crane. It drives to the job on public roads, then sets up on outriggers and works with a telescopic boom. When one of these comes in for its next scheduled service, the person under it needs the intervals, the lubrication points and the fluid details in front of them. That's what this manual is for.

What this manual helps you do

• Plan service work from the schedules section, so each interval is checked before the crane goes out.
• Lubricate the drive, joint shafts, steering, slew ring, slew gear and luffing gear using the fuels and lubricants and capacities sections.
• Inspect the braking system, wheels and tires, outriggers and piston rods against the visual inspections section.
• Check the hydraulic system and the air intake and cooling system as part of routine care.
• Verify the electrical system and the heating during scheduled checks.

Who this is for

A field service mechanic or workshop mechanic who looks after AC 50-1 cranes will use it at the service bay or on site. They'll work through the schedules and lubrication sections one interval at a time. A rental or hire company can also keep it on file for a planned maintenance routine on each unit.
