use and maintenance
This instruction manual describes the FASSI CRANE F240.24.
The fitment must be carried out in accordance with the instructions given
by the Manufacturer in the manual for hydraulic crane fitting.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility and guarantee if the fitting is
entrusted to workshops without sufficient technical capability to carry out
the work in conformity.
As well as the principal safety norms, this manual contains a description
of the crane and the instructions for use and maintenance.
The crane must only be operated by responsible persons, previously
instructed and authorized.
THANK YOU FOR SELECTING ONE OF OUR CRANES.

SAFETY NORMS
( !) This symbol draws your attention on the points concerning safety.
It means: WARNING! BE CAREFUL!
IT CONCERNS YOUR SAFETY!
!ATTENTION!
READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY prior to use of the crane or any maintenance.
A few minutes spent now could save time and labour later.
Be sure that the unit has been installed, inspected and tested in accordance
with the local legal requirements.
Check that protections are in their place and that all safety devices are fitted
and active.
Warning plates, as well as instruction and operation plates must be repla-
ced when no longer readable or missing. (See chapters A - B)
Do not run the engine in a indoor area without first making sure there is
adequate ventilation. Fit a suitable extension tube to the vehicle exhaust pipe
to take the fumes away from the working area.
Stabilize the vehicle by means of the outrigger rams, checking that they rest
on a solid base; if in doubt use special larger outrigger base plates (available
on request). (See chapter IX)
Level the crane so as it is always operated on a horizontal plane.
Check that the taps of the outrigger rams safety check valves are closed.
Never operate the outriggers when the crane is loaded.
Remember that the stability of the unit (crane-vehicle) is only guaranteed by
the maximum lateral extension of the outriggers.
Should visibility be insufficient, make sure that control stations are properly
lighted so as to ensure safety while operating control functions and allow rea-
ding of the plates.
Before manoeuvering a load check that the
working area is adequate and properly lighted
for your crane.
Make sure that the hook is always free to rota-
te on its pin and that nothing obstructs its ver-
tical positioning.
Check the efficiency of the hook safety catch.

Carefully inspect the load rigging and the
condition of ropes or chains.
Make sure that the lifted load is balanced.
The pallet fork must be connected to the crane
hook by means of a chain having at least 3 rings.
Hook up the load, checking that it does not exceed
the capacity indicated on the lifting diagram specific
to each load configuration.
It is absolutely prohibited to walk or stop under a
suspended load and for unauthorized persons to
be within the working area.
Avoid swinging the load above the control
station; in cases where the load is too close, the
crane must be operated from the opposite side.
It is absolutely prohibited to load or unload under or in proximity of electric
lines.
(!) The minimum distance
from electric lines is,
according to CEN norms,
5 meters, except for
otherwise prescribed by
national norms.
For cranes with top seat
controls, it is necessary to
use a ladder to reach the
control station.
When operating from the
top seat, stay within its
side safety guards.

Do not rotate the crane befo-
re the load is lifted, do not
operate with sudden
movements, activate the
controls with slow and
progressive movements.
Rotate slowly and with care
paying attention to the
stability of the vehicle.
With vertical lift, on hydraulic
and mechanical extension,
rotate slowly in order to
avoid side-skidding.
Do not move the vehicle if a
load is suspended on the
crane
.
Do not utilize the crane for
pushpull, lateral or sideways
operations.
Under no circumstances interfere with the safety and protection devices.
The vehicle/crane are not left unless the power take off is disengaged
and the load is on the ground.
At the end of the job and prior to driving the
vehicle the crane must be folded.
If the booms are to be laid on the body or on
the load, they must be blocked to prevent
possible sideways movements.
Outrigger rams must be lifted and re-entered
within the overall width of the truck and safety
devices locked.
Check that the taps of the outrigger rams
safety check valves are closed.
Disengage the power take off.
To avoid hitting bridges or tunnels check and
record the overall height of your crane in the
folded position or in laid position in the body or
on the load. Always respect and pay proper
attention to road signs placed in proximity of
such obstacles.

1 — Only authorized persons are allowed to operate the crane.
2 — The crane must be used on firm, level ground.
3 — Check that the vehicle hand brake is on and that the wheels
are chocked.
4 — Before every operation make sure that:
— no-one is within the working area of the crane
— the safety devices are in place and operative
— the minimum safe working distances from power lines are observed.
— the load is correctly slung and hooked.
5 — Stabilize the vehicle by the outrigger rams, making sure that:
— the lateral supports are fully extended
— the wheels are in contact with the ground and the suspension is not
completely unloaded
— the outriggers safety taps are closed.
6 — Use the crane in accordance with the use and maintenance manual,
making sure that:
— the load and radii are within the maximum limits shown on
the crane capacity plate
— the crane is used progressively avoiding sudden load movements
— swinging or dragging of the load is avoided
— the load is lifted before rotating.
7 — When using implements protect the crane working area with a barrier.
8 — The vehicle/crane are not left unless the power take off is disenga-
ged and the load is on the ground.
9 — Before driving the vehicle make sure that the outriggers are fully
retracted and re-entered, the safety taps closed and the crane is in
folded position.
