WARNING:
 The lifting tools are optional. Install specified lifting
tools at your nearest Hitachi dealer.
 Use lifting cables and other lifting tools being free
from any damage and/or aging, and having sufficient
strength.
 Consult your nearest Hitachi dealer for correct lifting
procedures, and size and types of lifting cable and
tools.
 Before lifting the machine, move the control lever
lock switch to the LOCK ( ) position to prevent the
machine from moving unexpectedly.
 Rigidly secure the front and rear frames using the
articulation lock bar so that the machine front and
rear frames are not articulated.
 Incorrect lifting procedure and/or incorrect wire rope
attachment will cause the machine to move (shift)
while being lifted, resulting in machine damage and/
or personal injury.
 Do not lift the machine quickly. Excessive load will be
applied to the lifting wire ropes and/or lifting tools,
possibly causing them to break.
 Do not allow anyone to come close to or under the
lifted machine.

attachment horizontally as illustrated to the right.

position.
3. Rigidly secure the front and rear frames using the
