Liability clause

SECTION 1. OPERATION

1.1 The Spierings truck may only be used for the purpose it was manufactured and designed for and only as

described in the user manual or in the additions to it.

1.2 Any use of the Spierings truck that differs from its design purpose or as described in the use manual or

the additions to it, will cause the product warranty and the manufacturer’s liability, for any direct or

indirect damage, to expire.

1.3 Only qualified, skilled personnel are allowed to operate the truck. The driver should have a special

1.4 The driver/operator/user of the Spierings truck should be informed immediately of any additions/changes

to the user manual.

SECTION 2. SAFETY

2.1 For safety reasons the driver/operator/user should carry out all operations as stated in the user manual

or in the additions to it.

2.2 If more stringent safety demands are locally placed on the truck/crane than specified in the Spierings

truck user manual or additions to it, these more stringent requirements must be strictly complied with. If

not, all warranty will expire and the manufacturer will not be liable for any damage or costs.

2.3 The Spierings truck manufacturer points out explicitly, that the driver/operator/user and local personnel

should not enter the cranes/trucks danger zone. If, for any reason or cause, an unexpected situation

occurs during operation one should contact the technical department or Spierings Service department

first before proceeding.

SECTION 3. WARRANTY

3.1 It is prohibited to carry out modifications or welding to the Spierings truck without prior written permission

of the manufacturer of the Spierings truck.

3.2 Frequent maintenance and periodic checks should be carried out in accordance with the user manual, or

in the additions to it. If maintenance or checks are carried out otherwise, or less frequent, without prior

1. General data AT6

The AT6-truck is especially designed for the Spierings SK1265 folding crane. Extra attention was paid to a

smooth and comfortable transport to the work site. The crane is suitable for driving on public roads fully fitted with

counterweight and tools. The chassis is an especially rigid structure to create a good crane support.

Picture 1-1 shows the measurements of the SK1265 with AT6-carriage. It states the overall dimensions, axles

distances and turning circle.

Picture 1-1

Measurements

•length: 15,5m

•Width: 3m

•Height: 4m

Drive system

•12.6 ltrs DAF diesel engine with turbo compressor and intercooler (type XE-390C1).

•ZF automatic transmission retarder; sixteen forward gears and one reverse gear.

•STEYR transfer case with a high (road) and a low (all-terrain) drive.

•Electronic accelerator pedal "E-gas” with speed control.

•Six Kessler & Co axles, where axle one, two, three and six are driven.

Steering:

•Axle 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6 are steered.

•Axle 5 and 6 are steered in opposite direction of axle 1, 2 and 3 to reduce the turning circle.

MANUAL SPIERINGS TRUCK AT6

AT6-EN-061031.doc 1-2

•Axle 5 and 6 can be disengaged. The axles may be steered in the same direction as the 3 front axles either

by means of a steering knob or fully automatic. This way you can drive in crab steering mode.

•The 2-circuit steering system is hydraulically powered by means of a 2-circuit steering gear housing and 3

auxiliary cylinders.

•The steering system is fitted with a emergency steering pump, so in case of a defect in the main steering

pump or stalling of the diesel engine, the truck remains steerable until it stands still.

•Provisions for driving off the road:

- adjustable axle height

- transfer case can be shifted in all-terrain gear

- longitudinal and transverse differentials can be locked

Suspension:

•Hydro-pneumatic suspension.

•Suspension can be blocked.

Brakes:

•Pneumatic operated brakes.

4-point outrigger support:

•Wide: 7.95m x 7.66m

•Narrow: 7.95m x 5.72m

Other data:

•Maximum speed limited to 85 km/h.

•Minimum speed at 1250 rpm: 1.9 km/h (is 32 m/min)

•Truck weight incl. superstructure approx. 72,000 kg

•The axle load is 12,000 kg each axle.

Numbers:

•Engine number: at the left on the engine block above the fuel pump.

•Vehicle identification number: on the ID-plate in the co-driver's legroom (see Picture 1-2) and engraved in the

right-hand frame girder in front of the 1st axle (see Picture 1-3).

2. Operation

2.1. Getting to know the truck

Picture 2-1

1. Bumper

If desired a bumper can be mounted, which enables you to take along an extra sling box or spare wheel. When

the bumper is folded up, the tow hook can be used.

2. Rear and side view cameras

To broaden your view at the rear and right-hand side of the truck cameras are installed. A monitor in the cab

shows the views.

3. Truck cab

Besides driving the crane, with the control panel in the truck cab the crane can be supported on outriggers and

the axle height can be adjusted.

4. Work lamps

At the rear of the engine compartment work lamps are

mounted at the right-hand side as well as at the left-

hand side. They can be operated from the cab.

By loosening knob (A) on the bracket the lamp can be

adjusted further (Picture 2-2).
