Installation, Maintenance & Safety Information
| Installation Notes | Install on a structurally reinforced deck foundation approved for crane reactions. Verify slewing clearances, hydraulic and electrical connections, earthing, control functions and safe access. Conduct commissioning and proof-load testing as required by class and flag regulations. |

| Maintenance Tips | Inspect wire ropes, hooks, sheaves, pins, bearings, brakes and hydraulic hoses at scheduled intervals. Lubricate specified points, maintain hydraulic fluid cleanliness, repair coating damage and periodically test overload protection, limit switches and emergency stops. |
| Safety Notes | Operate only by trained personnel within the rated load chart and permitted sea-state limits. Establish an exclusion zone, use certified lifting accessories, avoid side loading and personnel lifting unless specifically approved, and isolate stored hydraulic and electrical energy before maintenance. |
