DESCRIPTION AND USE OF OPERATOR CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
CARGO WELL AREA
CRANE
1.
Slewing Control
This lever controls slewing (rotation) of the crane base. Pulling the lever
toward the operator rotates the base counterclockwise. Pushing the lever
away from the operator rotates the base clockwise. The control is propor-
tional, so the further the lever is pushed or pulled, the faster the crane
slews.
2.
First Boom Control
This lever controls the first boom function of the crane. Pulling the lever
toward the operator retracts (folds) the first boom section. Pushing the
lever away from the operator extends (unfolds) the first boom section.
The control is proportional, so the further the lever is pushed or pulled,
the faster the first boom extends or retracts.
3.
Second Boom Control
This lever controls the second boom function of the crane. Pulling the
lever toward the operator retracts (folds) the second boom section. Push-
ing the lever away from the operator extends (unfolds) the second boom
section. The control is proportional, so the further the lever is pushed or
pulled, the faster the second boom extends or retracts.
4.
Boom Extend Control
This lever controls the movement of the boom extension. Pulling the lever
toward the operator retracts the boom extension. Pushing the lever away
from the operator extends the boom extension. The control is propor-
tional, so the further the lever is pushed or pulled, the faster the boom
extension extends or retracts.
5.
Winch Control
The LCM-8 Mod 2 crane is not equipped with a winch. This lever is
provided for expansion and performs no function on this crane.
