OUTLINE DIMENSIONS Inverse Conversion

See Operator’s Manual supplied with your 16000. DIVIDE (÷) known value by conversion factor to obtain
equivalent value in desired units. For example, 3,6576 m is
ENGLISH AND METRIC CONVERSIONS converted to feet, as follows:
3,6576 m ÷ 0.3048 = 12
Direct Conversion
MULTIPLY (x) known value by conversion factor to obtain
equivalent value in desired units. For example, 12 ft is
converted to meters (m), as follows:
12 ft x 0.3048 = 3,6576 m

WARNING if applicable, see the wind conditions in the Capacity Chart
Tipping Crane Hazard! Section of the Operator Information Manual supplied with the
extended upper boom point.
Judgment and experience of qualified operators, job
planners, and supervisors must be used to compensate
for affect of wind on lifted load and boom by reducing
ratings or operating speeds, or a combination of both. 3
Failing to observe this precaution can cause crane to tip
or boom and/or jib to collapse. Death or serious injury to
personnel can result.

OPERATING CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 16000 WIND ATTACHMENT OPERATOR’S MANUAL
A910 Forward stability is affected by wind on

the rear of the boom. Wind applies a
force to the boom and load that adds to
the crane’s overturning moment. This
action has the same effect as adding
load to the hook.
The wind’s affect on the rear of the load

increases load radius. This condition can result
in an overload hazard, possibly causing the
crane to tip or the boom to collapse.
To avoid this hazard, reduce operating speeds

this section or see wind conditions in Capacity
Charts if applicable).

GENERAL
WARNING
TIPPING CRANE HAZARD!
Judgment and experience of qualified operators, job
planners, and supervisors must be used to compensate
for affect of wind on lifted load and boom by reducing
ratings, reducing operating speeds, or a combination of
both.
Failing to observe this precaution can cause crane to tip
or boom and/or jib to collapse. Death or serious injury to
personnel can result.

S/N: 16007018 1/10
Forward stability is affected by wind on

the rear of the boom. Wind applies a
force to the boom and load that adds to
the crane’s overturning moment. This
action has the same effect as adding
load to the hook.
The wind’s affect on the rear of the load

increases load radius. This condition can result
in an overload hazard, possibly causing the
To avoid this hazard, reduce operating speeds
and load (see Wind Conditions Chart at end of
this section or see wind conditions in Capacity
Charts if applicable).

Backward stability is affected by wind Boom strength is affected the most when
on the front of the boom. This the wind acts on the side of the boom.
condition is especially dangerous
when the boom is at or near the
maximum angle when operating
without load.
Wind forces on the front of the boom
reduce the normal forward tipping
effect of the boom. The crane can tip
or the boom can collapse if this
condition is not avoided.
The wind’s affect on the side of the

load can cause the load to swing out
past the boom hinge pin. This condition
can result in excessive side load forces
on the boom, possibly causing the
The boom can buckle and collapse To avoid this hazard, reduce operating
if the load contacts the boom. speeds and load (see appropriate table

Handling Components
The boom sections are equipped with lifting lugs as shown in
Figure 4-5. The four-leg lifting sling can be used to lift the
boom sections. 3
It will be easier to connect the boom sections together if the

rear end of the section being lifted hangs lower than the front
end of the section. Grab hooks (4) are provided so two legs
of the lifting sling can be shortened as desired.

WARNING
Falling Load Hazard!
Lifting lugs on a particular boom section are designed only
for lifting that section only. Do not attempt to lift two or
more boom sections with lifting lugs only on one section.
Lifting lugs may break allowing boom sections to fall.
When lifting lugs are not used:
• Lift against chords only, never against lacings.
• Use nylon lifting slings. If wire rope or chain slings are
used, install protective covering (such as sections of
rubber tire) between slings and chords.

Note 1: Apply NEVER-SEEZ or equivalent to all pins and bores.

Note 2: Check to make sure that sheave assemblies are packed with grease. If not, pack with

Assembly Procedure (see Page 5)

Step:1.
Shows the extended upper boom point pinned to the #58WA boom cap in the shipping position. Before assembling to
boom, raise wire rope guide from its shipping position and pin it into the working position.
Step:2.
Attach equal length slings or chains to the forward lifting lugs on the extended upper boom point and the lifting lugs on the
boom cap. The main boom should be blocked up at least 300 mm (12”). Lift the extended upper boom point and boom
cap and position it above the transition insert so that the upper connector pins of the boom cap line up with the upper
connector hooks of the transition insert.
Step:3.
Lower the extended upper boom point and boom cap until the lower connector pin holes of the boom cap are aligned with
the holes in the transition insert. Insert lower connector pins. Unhook slings from the boom cap. Lift up on the extended
upper boom point to unload shipping pin. Remove shipping pin and store it on the boom cap. Lower extended upper
boom point to the ground.
Alternate Assembly Procedure (see Page 6)

Step:1.
Shows the extended upper boom point in the alternate shipping position. Before assembling to boom, unpin connecting
links item 25 (81010388) from their stowed position. Allow these links to hang down during the assembly process.
Step:2.
Attach equal length slings or chains to lifting lugs on the extended upper boom point. The main boom should be blocked
up at least 300 mm (12”). Lift the extended upper boom point and position it above the main boom so that connecting
links item 25 can be pinned to the main boom. Position links as shown and pin both sides. Extended upper boom point
should be in a horizontal position during this procedure.
Step:3.
After attaching top pins, lower the extended upper boom point until the lower pins are aligned with the holes in the main
boom. Pin extended upper boom point to main boom on both sides.

Contact your wire rope manufacturer/dealer for lubrication

• The wire rope must be properly protected at all times.

• The lubricant must be fluid enough to fully penetrate the
strands and rope core. Use one of the methods shown in Brushing
Figure 5-1 to lubricate the wire rope.
• For maximum penetration, apply lubricant where the
wire rope “opens up” as it travels around a sheave or
winds onto a drum.

• The wire rope must be clean and dry before applying Swabbing
lubricant; an air jet, or wire brush are some cleaning S139a Spraying

Do not use grease to lubricate wire rope. Grease will not
