Tadano GT-600EX-1 Truck Crane Operator Manual

A Tadano GT-600EX-1 is a truck crane. It drives to site on its own carrier, sets up on outriggers, and lifts with a telescopic boom. When a used crane arrives without the book in the cab, or a relief operator takes over a unit they haven't run before, this is the document they reach for to get the operating rules and daily checks back on file.

What this manual helps you do

• Check the crane before each shift using the preoperational inspection and the inspection of crane structure.
• Follow the precautions for inspection and maintenance before anyone climbs on or works near the machine.
• Lubricate to schedule, with sections on greasing, gear oil, the hydraulic system and the swing system.
• Inspect wire ropes, the electrical system and the air conditioner system as part of routine care.
• Read up on the action against emergency so your crew knows the response before it's needed.

Who this is for

A fleet manager or rental company uses this manual to hand each operator the same rules and daily checks, and to keep the paperwork complete for every unit out on hire. A buyer of a used crane uses it to confirm what routine inspection and care the machine expects.
