A Tadano ATF 1300XL is a multi-axle all terrain crane that drives to the job on public roads, then sets up and lifts with its telescopic boom. When a used crane arrives without the book in the cab, or a relief operator takes over, this is the document people look for. It gives them the controls, the warning lights and the setup sequence in one place.
What this manual helps you do
- Learn the instrument panel and control elements before you climb into the cab.
- Follow the gearshift and driving operation instructions, including suspension control and canceling the 3rd axle drive mode.
- Read the safety section and the important instructions for use before each new job.
- Inspect wheels and tires and work through the inspection scheme for the chassis.
- Check oils and greases and the hydraulic diagrams when you plan daily care.
Who this is for
A crane operator or relief operator who needs the control layout and the travel and setup routines on file. A rental company or fleet manager will also want it, so every ATF 1300XL going out has its operating rules and daily checks documented for handover.
