The Grove GMK 6220L is a multi-axle all terrain crane that drives to the job on public roads and lifts with a telescopic boom once it's set up. A used crane often arrives without the book in the cab, and that's when most people go looking for this manual. It's the operating document that stays with the machine, so a new or relief operator can learn it before the first lift.
What this manual helps you do
- Learn the controls and instruments in both the carrier and the superstructure.
- Follow the rules in the basic safety instructions for crane operators before you start work.
- Plan the job using the information for operations planning.
- Set the crane up for on-road driving and for rigging work.
- Operate the crane engine and the crane, and work through the malfunctions sections when something shows on the carrier or superstructure.
Who this is for
A crane operator or relief operator taking over a GMK 6220L will use it to learn the driving modes, the rigging sequence and the crane operation sections. An operator trainer can use the same book to walk a new person through the machine in order.
