Tadano GR-1600XL-2 Rough Terrain Crane Operator Manual

The GR-1600XL-2 is a single-cab rough terrain crane with a telescopic boom and outriggers, built to get work done on uneven ground where a road crane can't go. If a used crane arrived without the book in the cab, or a relief operator is taking the seat, this is the manual they'll want open before the first pick. It's the operating document that stays with the machine.

What this manual helps you do

• Learn the controls and instruments, including what the warning lights are telling you.
• Follow the sequence for setting up on outriggers before you lift.
• Read the load charts and load moment limiter correctly when planning a lift.
• Plan hoisting and slewing work with the telescopic boom and jib in mind.
• Check the crane against the inspection and maintenance routines before each shift.

Who this is for

An operator or operator trainer will use it to walk a new hand through the cab, the setup and the daily checks. A rental or hire company can keep it on file with the crane so every relief operator works from the same operating rules.
