Limiting Conditions and Criteria
Limiting conditions are immediate issues with this machine that must be addressed prior to continuing operation.The Safety Section of the Operation and Maintenance Manual describes limiting condition criteria for replacing items such as safety messages, seat belt and mounting hardware, lines, tubes, hoses, battery cables and related parts, electrical wires, and repairing any fluid leak.The Maintenance Interval Schedule in the Operation and Maintenance Manual describes limiting condition criteria that require repair or replacement for items (if equipped) such as alarms, horns, braking system, steering system, and rollover protective structures.The Monitoring System (if equipped) described in the Operation Section of the Operation and Maintenance Manual provides information on limiting condition criteria, including a warning level that requires immediate shutdown of the machine.Limitations on Lifting Loads That Exceed the Working Range
Do not load the boom beyond the maximum load capacity. See the chart on the tipover warning for the load capacity of the boom.When the load capacity is exceeded, refer to "American National Standards A.N.S.I. B3014-2010 Section 14.2.2".Also, follow the procedures that are listed below:
Inspect the wire cable for defects prior to the lift operation.
Inspect the wire cable for defects after the lift operation.
Do not exceed the load capacity of the boom.
The load must be handled safely to minimize tipping effects.
The lift operation and the inspections must be made under controlled conditions by an authorized person.Electrical Power Lines
Serious injury or death by electrocution can result if the machine or attachments are not kept the proper distance from electrical power lines.
Use the following charts to determine the safe distance from high-voltage wires during these conditions:
