THANK YOU FOR SELECTING ONE OF FASSI CRANES.

This crane is the result of FASSI philosophy: ongoing research, rigorous

testing, data verification, and analysis of performances.
Many years of experience has allowed us to grant you the maximum safety of
operation together with the optimization of machine performances.
All this represents the core of FASSI quality system.
FASSI quality system is in conformity with
UNI EN ISO 9001 - ISO 9001.
The fitment of the crane on the vehicle must be carried out in accordance with
the instructions given by FASSI in the manual for hydraulic crane fitting and
the relevant chassis manufacturers directives.
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.
Be sure that the unit has been installed, inspected and tested in accordance
with the local legal requirements.
As well as the principal safety norms, this manual contains a description of the
crane and the instructions for use and maintenance.
The following instructions refer to mobile cranes in general and must be integrated
with the manual for use supplied by the centre responsible for the crane fitting on
truck, vehicle or other type of structure.
READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY prior to use or any maintenance. A few minu-
tes spent now could save time and labour later.

Always conform to the safety norms and the instructions for use and maintenance
contained in the present manual in order to guarantee a long life to the crane.

C0 WARNING AND INSTRUCTIONS WARNING AND
INSTRUCTIONS C0
F 480A
The use of the crane is reserved to authorized personnel, instructed in advan-
ce, who has to conform to the safety norms and instructions contained in the
use manual supplied with the crane. (See norms ISO 9926-1)

It is absolutely prohibited to walk or stop under a suspended load

It is prohibited for unauthorized persons to be within the working area.

Under no circumstances interfere with the safety and protection devices.

Warning plates, as well as instruction and operation plates must be replaced

when no longer readable or missing. See Paragraph R0 Instruction and war-
ning plates.

Do not use the outriggers to raise the vehicle.

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.

C0.1 Before operating

Check that protections are in their place and that all safety devices are fitted
and active. (See norms ISO 9927-1)

Keep the ladder and the control station on the top seat, clean; the seat can tilt
forward.

Make sure that control stations are properly lit so as to ensure safety while
operating and allow instruction plates to be visible.

Check that the working area is adequate and pro-

perly lighted for your crane.

Make sure that the hook is always free to rotate

on its pin and that nothing obstructs its vertical
positioning.

Check the efficiency of the hook safety catch.

Carefully inspect the condition of ropes or chains.

Make sure that the pallet fork is connected to the crane hook by means of a
chain having at least three (3) rings.

C0.2 During operation

Take the vehicle fumes away from the working area by fitting an extension tube
of a suitable diameter to the exhaust system.
Do not run the engine in a indoor area without first making sure there is ade-
quate ventilation.

When using the ladder to reach the control station on the top seat, avoid
knocking into the controls while going up or down the ladder.

Edition 10.11.2000 5
 WARNING AND The control station on the top seat is provided with side safety guards; stay
C0.2 INSTRUCTIONS within these guards.
F 480A
Make sure that no one is within the working area of the crane.

Avoid swinging the load above working and transit areas; any hidden danger
situation must be audibly alarmed.

Avoid all those situations which may result in crushing during vehicle stabilization,
crane movement and load handling.

G1 TILTABLE OUTRIGGER RAMS
Outrigger rams are allowed to be stored in an inclined posi-
tion, when obstructions on the vehicle chassis prevent their
vertical stowability. These hinged supports are placed
between the outrigger supports and the rams; the fixed part
is screwed to the supports while the mobile part is screwed
to the rams. (fig. 12-12a)

To place the rams in a working condition.

- Supporting the ram, remove the check pin and the
locking pin from their positions.
- Position, carefully, the ram in working condition, fig. 12
insert the locking pin in its new position and secure
it with the check pin.

G2 MANOEUVRES AND CONTROLS TO STABILIZE SUPPLEMENTARY

THE VEHICLE
BEAMS G2
F 480A

The outriggers rams prevent damaging stresses both to the frame and to the
vehicle suspensions on which the crane is mounted to and assure the stability
of the unit during load handling.

Be very careful when stabilizing the vehicle; make sure that no one is or tran-
sits in close proximity of the working area of the outriggers.

(!) ATTENTION (!)

The crane stability is maintained by the maximum extension of the outrigger
supports, by the solidity of the base underneath the plates of the outrigger
rams and by the observance of the capacity plates. To check the maximum
working pressure see Paragraph D0.1 Technical data

Check that the outrigger rams are applied on a solid base; if necessary use
larger outrigger base plates (available on request) to avoid sinking.

When stabilization is complete the wheels of the vehicle must still be in contact
with the ground and the suspensions must not be fully unloaded.

Level the crane so as to operate on a horizontal plane; check that the angle of
inclination of the vehicle does not exceed five (5) degrees from horizontal.

While loading, it may be necessary to vertically adjust the outrigger rams to

prevent an overload on the outriggers, then stabilize again.

While unloading, the outrigger rams may not be perfectly in contact with the
ground because of a rise in the suspension; it is therefore recommended to
stabilize the vehicle during operation to avoid an overturn.

G2.1 Functions of control levers for stabilization

The controls to stabilize the vehicle are activated only from ground level and
on both sides of the crane base.

Lever function D - C (fig. 15-15a-15b)

Levers D Control for deviator and deviator

transmission crane-outriggers
( - E/S ).

Levers C Control for multifunction deviator

and multifunction transmission
for selecting and operating the
supports and the outrigger rams.

Operate the levers clockwise to select the fig. 15 fig. 15a

control (multi-function deviator) and in alter-
nate direction to operate the required function (ram).

The deviator and the multifunction transmission are fitted with lever
guide which ensures accurate selection and operation.

G2.2 Controls to stabilize the vehicle

The controls conform with the safety directives and enable the operator to activate
the lateral extension of the outrigger supports and rams only from the side where he
can visually check the operation.

- Exit of the outrigger support; position the lever C on the corresponding position
and then, activate the control.
- Outrigger ram descent; position the lever C on the corresponding position and
then, activate the control.

Note The levers, if placed on positions different from the ones indicated on
the plates on the deviator and the multifunction transmission do not
allow any operations because the safety devices have disabled them.

G2.3 Bilateral controls to stabilize the vehicle

The special fitment adopted allow the activation of the multifunction deviator only
from ground level and on both sides of the vehicle. Make sure that no one is or
transits in close proximity of the working area of the outriggers specially in the
case that the outrigger control is executed from the
opposite side of the vehicle (it is not possible visually
check the operation).
- Exit of the outrigger support; position the lever C
on the corresponding position and then, activate
the control.
- Outrigger ram descent; position the lever C on
the corresponding position and then, activate the
control.
(!) ATTENTION (!)
During the stabilising operations, for each
outrigger ram, it is recommended to DESCENT
the outrigger as the last manoeuvre.

 (!) ATTENTION (!) SUPPLEMENTARY
The complete extension of the outrigger supports is visually indicated by BEAMS G2.3
the yellow triangles which are found at the end of the beam (Fig. 14b) F 480A

The stabilization has to be carried out with care and gradually keeping the
vehicle in horizontal levelled condition to prevent springs overloads and chas-
sis torsions.

To operate the crane controls, after having completed the descent and
stabilisation manoeuvres,
- Position lever D of oil diverter ( - E/S) on .

Manoeuvres for re-entry of the crane outriggers and supplementary

outriggers within the overall vehicle width after crane use.

- Position lever D of oil diverter ( - E/S) on E/S.

Repeat by inverting the sequence of the operations.

(!) WARNING (!)

Keep hands clear of automatic stop device of the outrigger supports fig. 14b
(lever A from the position of the fig. 14a to the one of the fig. 14).

(!) Always check that the outrigger supports, once in their rest position,
are locked in their seat by the safety devices, so as to assure the
impossibility of accidental movement. (fig. 14).

(!) Operate the levers smoothly and gradually (!)

When carrying out simultaneous movements of two or more functions, also related
to pump flow and lever travel, it is possible that on reaching the stroke end of a parti-
cular function, an increase in speed of the other functions will occur.

(!) WARNING (!)

While exiting and folding the crane, you must
operate from the distributor side; it is forbidden
to operate from the double control side
because of the overall dimensions of the
booms. (DE1684A fig. 17)

F 480A
(!) Before manoeuvering the load, verify that the working area is suitable
for your crane.

The lifting curves of the capacity plate indicate the maximum load that the crane
can lift at a certain radius and at a certain height. To utilize the maximum capa-
city of the crane, it is necessary to position the inner boom as indicated on the
capacity plate. During load handling, do not exceed the reach limits given, or
the load indicated on the above mentio-
ned charts. If the limits are exceeded,
the load limiting device, allowing all
manoeuvres, which reduce the lifted load
within the permitted reach limits and for-
bid all other manoeuvres, will be imme-
diately activated.

Lifting moment limiting device

A characteristic which permits the clas-
fig. 18a sification of cranes is their lifting capa-
city or maximum lifting moment. The
moment is defined by the value obtai-
ned from the weight of the load to be lif-
ted (kg) by its distance (meters) from
the centerline of the crane rotation.
The device called “lifting moment limiting
device” preserves the crane structure from
overloads, as it prevents any movement
which increases the value of the moment
up to the maximum established value.

fig. 18b
H1.1 Lifting moment limiting device
“INTELLIGENT TYPE”
This device utilises an electrohydraulic technology, pre-
venting any movement which causes an increase in the
pressure induced by the load in the inner and outer
rams of the crane (and of the hydraulic extension if fit-
ted), up to the “critical values”. These values, which are
non-exceedable, determine the intervention levels and
provide the data for setting the device.

The lifting moment limiting device concernes the fol-

lowing manoeuvres:
- Inner boom descent; the inner boom lift is controlled
by the general main pressure valve of the distributor.
- Outer boom lift and descent.
fig. 18c - Extension of extension boom sections.
- Winch rope lift (if fitted).
- If hydraulic extension is fitted: extension outer boom

The lifting moment limiting device system uses the specific functions of the distribu- CONTROLS TO
tor by utilising an electro-hydraulic technology, it does not allow you exceed the set OPERATE THE CRANE H1.2
value, by disactivating the controls (levers in neutral position) commanded by the F 480A
limiting device.

The condition of intervention is operated by the position of the outer boom (or, if
hydraulic extension is fitted, the position of the extension outer boom), on which
the electronic signal position (mercury level switch) is read by a special electroval-
ve. This determines controls which are locking or unlocking (resetting) of the con-
trols concerned.

When the moment is reduced, it resets automatically (the manoeuvres blocked by

the device are released). N.B.: There is a delay of four (4) seconds after the
moment reduction before the reset can occur in order to safeguard the stability of
the device.

Fig. 18a-b-c illustrate the configurations of the crane (and of the eventual hydraulic
extension) with the manoeuvres allowed and not allowed by the device, in connec-
tion with the horizontal position of the crane and extension outer booms.

(!) CAUTION DANGER (!)

On the outer boom there is a mercury capsule (mercury level switch) duly protected
and provided with the following warning stickers.

Mercury is extremely toxic. In case of replacement and/or scrapping,

dispose of or recycle the capsule containing mercury with maximum
care, and in accordance with the national regulations in force.

H1.2 Lifting moment limiting device for two working

sectors (optional)
In case of one sector of the working area with reduced stability of the vehicle (e.g.
sector in front of vehicle cab) the limiting device can be provided with a special
function which allows to operate with a reduction of the intervention level.
The reduction of the intervention level reduces the crane capacity values and
this reduction value is defined in the vehicle stability calculation.
Consequently the working area is divided in one sector (e.g. body side) where
the crane works according to the capacity plate values and another sector
(e.g. cab side) where it works with reduced capacity values. The device has
consequently two intervention levels which are activated in relation to the sec-
tor of the crane working area always securing the vehicle stability.

(!) ATTENTION (!)

If the rotation stops by going through the working zone where the crane can
operate according to the capacity plate values to the one where it can operate
according to the reduced values, it means that one of the following conditions
is reached:
- manoeuvre of a load bigger than the one admitted in the reduced sector
defined in the vehicle stability calculation
- manoeuvre without load with (at least) one of the inner, outer rams of the
crane or the jib (if fitted) extended till the stroke end.
The only manoeuvre allowed is the crane rotation in the reversed sense, and
consequently, an action which respectively allows to reduce the moment or to
re-enter the inner ram(s), the crane outer ram, the jib outer ram (if fitted).

When a sector of the working area exists in which the stability is insufficient
(for example in the area in front of the cab) the permitted arc of rotation is limi-
ted by means of an adjustable electro-hydraulic device which only allows ope-
ration within the safe area. (Warning: persist in the operation!)
When exceeding the “safe area” the rotation limiting device only allows
manoeuvres which reverse the direction of rotation.
If a reduction of capacity is necessary because of insufficient stability of the
complete unit, new capacity plates must be fixed giving the derated capacity in
accordance with the final stability test.

The crane, in load condition H1B3, can be provided with implements such as:

- Manual extensions
- Winches
- Hydraulic extensions
- Personnel baskets
- Clam ‘shell buckets
- Augers
- Radio remote control.

(!) When using an implement it is always necessary to check that its weight,
dimension and capacity is matched to the crane performances.
For further information please refer to FASSI GRU IDRAULICHE

Warning and norms for crane use also apply for hydraulic implement use.

Before using a personnel basket it is necessary to provide the crane with

the safety devices requested by the local norms in force and prior to use of
the crane it has to be tested and inspected in accordance with the local legal
requirements.

(!) In case of implements on the load or the truck body it is necessary to check
they are locked to assure the impossibility of accidental movements.

(!) The crane can operate, intermit-

tently and not continuously, with
lifting devices other than the hook,
only on loose and light materials
(not on scrap iron).
The dimensions and the capacity
of the implements must be propor-
tioned with crane performances.

(!) WARNING (!)

CRUSHING OR PUSH MANOEUVRES ARE NOT PERMITTED.

L0.1 Hydraulic connections for implements - supple-

mentary hoses.
(!) WARNING (!)
To ensure that the control corresponds to the implement movement, hydraulic
connections are symmetrically fitted with coupling unions. Never invert such
positions: movements inversion as well as operating difficulties or unusual
overload with implement itself could occur.

NOTE
When using coupling unions it is necessary to verify that there is no trace of soil,

(!) WARNING (!)
Manual extensions are not protected by the lifting moment limiting device.
Before lifting the load make sure that its weight does not exceed the capacity
indicated on the capacity plate.
Manual extensions can be extracted from the rest position and be operative, once
the security pins have been removed, with the outer boom in sliding position.
Verify that the area is suitable for this operation and there are no unauthorized
persons in the working area.
Do not permit the extension to slide out at speed as this will damage the stroke
end stops.
Do not try to align the holes (slots) for the locking pins with your fingers; always use
a suitable tool.
When manual extensions are in place, fit the locking pins and secure them with
the check pins to prevent accidental escape.
(!) Always remember that when operating with implements, their tare weight
must be deducted from the capacity of the crane.

(!) WARNING (!)

Check the condition of wire rope.
Do not rotate the crane before the load is lifted. Lift the load vertically using the
cable and not the boom in order to avoid swinging the load. With the suspended
load rotate slowly and with care checking the stability of the vehicle.

L3.1 Winch for crane

(!) See operator winch manual supplied by the winches’ manufacturer.

The winch has a maximum capacity, indicated by a plate, not related to the
crane capacities which can also be lower.

Consequently avoid to lift, with the winch, heavier loads than those allowed
by the crane capacity plate.

The couple limiter, installed on the winch structure, prevents that on the
cable, can be created a load major to the value of maximum line at the 4th
layer, quiescing all the crane controls.

(!) Under no circumstances interfere with the limiter device adjustment.

Winches are equipped with an end stroke device that in the lifting or in the booms
extension rams exit prevents the cable hook or the block from hitting the fixed pul-
ley, and in the unwinding keeps at least three (3) turns of the cable wound around
the winch drum, tripping either device disactivates the relevant controls.

To reactivate the controls the winch control lever must be activated controlling:
- the descent if the device operation is happened in the lifting or in exit with
the booms extension rams;
- the lifting if the operation is happened in the unwinding of the same one.

dangerous swinging.
The pulley structure is provided with a group with microswitch (fig. 27) whose
lever is kept in position by a balance weight (sliding on the cable); the cable
hook or the block lift the balance weight thus releasing the lever becomes
impossible with the consequent disactivation of the controls. Please note that
each movement of the crane resulting in the exclusion of the balance weight
action, engenders the disactivation of the controls.
Folding the crane in rest position
- withdraw the flying drive (it is assembled on the cable of the cable winder)
from the pin placed near the microswitch, placed on the pulley, assembled
on the booms extension rams.
- Release the cable from all support rings placed on the booms letting that
it winds free in the cable winder.
- Insert the flying drive in the pin placed in the cable winder; this operation
gets active all crane controls to complete the rest position operations.
- Withdraw the cable from the pulleys, then remove them from the crane
(reposition the pins and the security pins)
- Operate the ascent of the winch in order to wind the cable on winch drum, always
keeping the cable in tension; with the cable layer easing the regular rewinding and
without overlaps. fig. 27
- Hook the thimble to a support apt to keep the cable sufficiently taut.
NOTE
On cranes fitted with hydraulic extension, in some cases the winch is mounted on
a rotating support to reduce the overall dimensions; to put the winch to the rest
position, operate as following:
- to position the outer boom vertically.
- to withdraw the security pin, the screw nut and the locking pin from the supports.
The pin should be withdraw easily and without putting up resistance; if so the
winch support is not enough vertical with consequent dangerous rotation of
the group when the pin is finally removed. Then position the crane outer boom
in vertical position, and try to withdraw the security pin once again.
- Rotate the winch support until it reaches its new position,
- Insert the locking pin, the screw nut and the security pin.
To put the crane in working position it is necessary to carry out the operations
in reverse.
Rotate the winch support with extreme care in order not to damage the hoses
and electric components.
To fold the crane in rest position see Paragraph H0.2
(!) ATTENTION (!)
Please remember that after placing the crane in working position it is
compulsory to reset the functionality of end stroke device, otherwise the
cable could be damaged.

L3.2 Winch for crane

(!) ATTENTION (!)
It is necessary to avoid, on pain of damaging the cable, that:
- in the lifting with the winch or in the booms extension rams exit the
cable hook (or the block) takes contact with the fixed pulley;
- in the unwinding the cable is completely wound from the winch drum;
three -3- turns must be wound at least, causing the controls quiescing.

(!) On winches not equipped with cable layer, check the rewinding of the
cable on winch drum proceeds regularly and without overlapping: it is
suggested to rewind the cable only if it is sufficiently taut.

- place the extension on the vehicle or on the ground in the direction of the
movement of the extension booms;
- extend the crane outer ram to its stroke end and position the extension
booms of the crane not too close to the first boom of the jib in order to allow
the lining-up manoeuvres and the connection of the hoses;
- connect the jib hoses to the hydraulic plant through coupling unions, following
indications of Paragraph L0.1, Hydraulic connections for implements - supple-
mentary hoses;
- operate the outer ram of the jib and the inner ram of the crane in order to align
the extension booms of the crane and the first boom of the jib thus allowing their
connection;
- eventually repeat the previous operation until the fixing holes are aligned,
working on the extension booms of the crane;
- insert the lock pin into the fixing holes and secure it with the check pin.

 MAINTENANCE M0 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
M0 INSTRUCTIONS
F 480A
To assure a long life to the crane, it is necessary to meticulously follow the
maintenance instructions.

General lubrication and small repairs can be carried out by the user; repairs of a
more complicated nature must be carried out by authorized service personnel.

Spare parts must be original.

Good maintenance and proper use are imperative to maintain efficient use and
guarantee the safety of the crane.

At least once a year you must take the crane to a Fassi Service Center for a
check.

(!) Before disconnecting any hydraulic hoses, ensure that there is no pressure in
the hydraulic circuit.
After removing hoses always mark them and their respective ports on the
crane. Faulty replacement can cause damage to the rams and to the hydraulic
circuit.

Respect the information supplied for maintenance and technical assistance.

Any maintenance operation must be carried out with the crane power source
turned off. (in case of fixed mounting with hydraulic power pack, the electric
motor has to be turned off).

Do not place limbs, fingers or any other parts of anatomy into areas of the
crane, which present possibilities of shearing, without having blocked such
parts of the crane.

Do not weld, drill or grind any part of the crane without the Manufacturer’s
authorisation.

Do not weld the TIRANTI: NON SALDARE!

When repairs to, ZUGSCHRAUBEN: NICHT SCHWEISSEN
or checks of, the DE1574
hydraulic circuit fig. 29
and of the rams
are carried out, it is very important not to use, or be in the proximity of, mate-
rials which can damage the circuit or contaminate the hydraulic oil eg. metal
shavings, sand or dust.

Do not use the high pressure washing on the controls (deviators, distributors,
double controls, hand cable controls...), on the electronic components (boxes,
control panels...), on the tanks.

Never use detergents, petrolsol or inflammable liquids, always use non flam-
mable or non toxic liquids.

To avoid down time, it is recommended to periodically carry out the following

checks.

36 Edition 10.11.2000
M0.1 At the end of every working day MAINTENANCE
INSTRUCTIONS M0.1
F 480A
- Check that all safety devices are efficient.
- Check the level of the hydraulic oil in the tank.
- Check all the components of the hydraulic circuit for possible leaks.
- Check that the control and the oil diverter levers can easily be positioned;
they must show no signs of forcing.
- Check the condition of shackles, hooks, wire ropes and any other lifting
equipment.

M0.2 After the first 40 hours use

Check the tightening torque of the fixing rods of the
crane (fig. 30).

See table at paragraph M0.4

fig. 30
M0.3 After every working week
Clean the oil filter placed in the oil tank of the crane and
if any, on the pump section and pressure hoses.

NOTE The filters of fibre or paper can not be cleaned,

they must be replaced.

Cleaning of the wire mesh filter on the tank (oil return to

the oil-tank) fig. 31.

- Unscrew the security bolts of the filter cover 1 and

remove it.
- Extract the cartridge, clean by flushing with a non
flammable, non corrosive and non toxic solvent (gas oil
or other). Thoroughly dry the filter inside and out (do not fig. 31
use compressed air).
- Check if the cartridge has collapsed; if so, replace it!
- Remove the filter body 3 and clean it.
- Re-assemble the filter body and the cartridge: check the
sealing of the ‘O’ ring 4-5-6; in case, replace it!

NOTE
Take care that no contaminated material passes into the tank.

Replacement of the filter on the delivery line (before the distri-

butor) fig. 32.
- When the visual indicator becomes red, replace the cartridge.
- Unscrew with a suitable spanner the filter body (1) from
the head (2).
- Remove the cartridge (3) and replace it!
- Clean inside the holder.
- Re-assemble checking the seal (4) on the filter body. fig. 32
- Screw the filter body into the head.

Check the oil level in the tank with the crane in the folded
position and with the outriggers (crane and supplemen- MAX
tary) fully re-entered. The oil level must not exceed the MIN
maximum or be lower than the minimum (fig. 33).

Top up using hydraulic oil with the same characteristics as

those indicated in the table at paragraph N0. fig. 33

Edition 10.11.2000 37
 MAINTENANCE All the lubricators mounted on the crane are protected by a plastic cap so to
M0.3 INSTRUCTIONS avoid the oil contamination.
F 480A
Periodically grease the points indicated on the crane (fig. 35) (and on the
hydraulic jib, when fitted, fig. 36) paying particular attention to the points not
easily detected.

For the sliding sections of the outrigger supports and of the extension booms
guide shoes made from a special material have been fitted: to ease their move-
ment it is recommended to smear a light film of grease on them, taking care that
the surfaces of the extension booms are free from impurities such as sand etc.

Use a grease with the same characteristics indicated in the table at Paragraph N0.

fig. 36

fig. 35

After every 100 working hours or more frequently in case of more

intensive utilisation

Grease the slew gear to prevent friction during rotation and to ensure that it is
stable by preventing water (corrosion protection) and contaminants from ente-
ring the bearings. For a better internal distribution of the grease it is advisable
to rotate the crane and grease it in such a way as to see grease at the seals.
Use a grease with the same characteristics indicated in the table at Paragraph N0.

Grease the winch cable (if fitted) after having first cleaned the cable of any
encrustation (grease mixed with sand, dust, dirt etc.) The lubricant used must
guarantee a good level of penetration in order to lubricate both the inside and
the outside of the cable.
Use a grease with the same characteristics indicated in the table at Paragraph N0.
