Safety and Operator Information
Safety is an important part of the documentation. The manual explains warning symbols for hazards involving personal injury, equipment or load damage, electrical hazards and environmental risks. It also provides information concerning intended use, operator qualifications, organizational requirements and safe truck-crane operation.
The manual states that the GMK 3055 is intended for vertical lifting of loads in authorized rigging modes using the appropriate hook block and reeving arrangement. It also lists examples of improper use, including unauthorized road-driving modes, unauthorized equipment, transporting people in prohibited areas and overriding safety-related systems.
Driving and Operating Reference
The operating instructions provide descriptions of controls, switches, indicator lamps and operating procedures. The documentation uses cross-references to help operators move from general component illustrations to detailed descriptions and operating procedures.
The manual also explains the organization of checklists and step-by-step instructions. These are intended to be used together when performing complete rigging procedures, with the relevant warnings and safety information provided alongside the individual operations.
Vehicle Identification
The vehicle identification section explains the location and purpose of identification plates and numbers on the GMK 3055. It identifies items including the superstructure name plate, CE marking where applicable, chassis name plate and chassis number.
Additional Documentation
The manual explains that the GMK 3055 documentation may include additional operating instructions for equipment such as lattice extensions, together with lifting capacity tables, outrigger pressure tables, safety documentation, circuit diagrams, maintenance documentation and spare parts information.
Additional Pages and Corrections
The supplied documentation also contains additional information and correction material. An additional-pages section describes a three-level driving-mode selector for applicable GMK 3055 truck cranes.
