Lift to the serial chart in the cab — this jib, this reeving, this mast, this ballast. The files below are Liebherr published data sheets from the Canada tower-crane site. LN sheets are the load tables. Operator and maintenance manuals for this serial live in the cab, on the Tower Crane Portal and on MyLiebherr.

INSPECT
- Which luffer: hydraulic HC-LH or rope HC-L. Inspection follows that machine
- Serial, jib length, reeving, ballast match the chart in the cab
- Jib angle against the chart for this radius and this reeving
- Hydraulic HC-LH: cylinder, hoses, power pack, leaks, level. Sensors on the luff
- Rope HC-L: luffing rope, winch, cathead, dead ends
- Level luffing where fitted — hook height holds as the jib moves
- Hoist rope, hook, limits, overload, anemometer
- Slew, weathervaning, mast, ties, climbing frame
- Out-of-service jib position for this wind
MAINTAIN
- Luffing system on the OEM interval for this serial
- Hydraulic HC-LH: oil, filters, cylinder glands — OEM interval
- Hoist and slew as the lubrication chart
- Wire rope: hoist and, on rope luffers, the luffing line
- Structure: jib, cathead or ram attachments, mast
