National Crane 800H Boom Truck Operator Manual

The National Crane 800H is a telescopic boom crane mounted on a truck chassis. It sets up on outriggers, lifts and places loads on a job site, then packs up and drives to the next one. This manual is the book that belongs in the cab. If a relief operator is taking over the crane, or a used 800H arrived without its book, this is what they'd reach for.

What this manual helps you do

• Learn the controls and instruments before you climb into the seat.
• Follow the sequence for setting up on outriggers.
• Read the load charts and understand how the anti-two block works.
• Operate the boom and winch with the crane operation rules in front of you.
• Plan the steps for preparing for travel, and review the hand signals your ground crew should use.

Who this is for

A rental or hire company fleet manager keeps the manual on file so every operator going out on an 800H has the operating rules in hand. A relief operator uses it to get familiar with the layout and the setup routine on a crane they haven't run before.
