Girder Carrier carrying capacities of 120T, 160T, 180T, 220T, 250T, and 300T that can be used directly to feed girder to bridge launcher and coordinate cross hole of bridge crane, featuring self-propelled, concrete girder without limitation of length, user- friendly operation, and maintenance, lower cost of transportation and good stability. Girder prefabrication field and bridging construction site with a weakness of long-distance and complex traffic, as well as the construction site where is not suitable for the track- laying or is in high cost of track- laying, etc. are also applicable. Girder Carrier takes place of traditional equipment. Many impressive performances have been achieved in girder transportation with an active presentation recently. Girder carrier comes from engineering, and will also apply to engineering practice, enabling bridge engineer well- content.

HOW DOES GIRDER CARRIER WORK

Check Before Vehicle Moving

All working points of engine oil level, hydraulic oil, fuel oil, cooling water, brake device, stored battery, transmission mechanism, starting device, lubricating condition of each joint, and tire pressure of all working points must be checked.

For the diesel engine parts please see the use and maintenance manual instructions.

Vehicle Starting

When starting up, place the gear lever in the neutral position, strain the manual valve, and then switch it on with the use of a key (turn the key clockwise to ACC gear).

Ride the clutch pedal to continue to start the engine by turning the key. Once the engine is started up, loosen the key immediately. Each starting time should be no more than 15 seconds, so order to protect the starter and stored battery. After starting failure of each time, try again after 60 seconds. If three starting fail, it shall find out the causes. It can only start the engine after troubleshooting. Evenly loosen the clutch pedal, after the stable running of the engine.

After starting, pay attention to check the oil pressure. When a diesel engine runs at an idle speed, engine oil pressure should be no less than 0.1Mpa (1 kgcm2). Check the oil surface of the oil pan for a new-assembly diesel engine after starting 5 minutes. Add the engine oil in-between the upper and down marks of the oil scale, when necessary.

The Girder trailer shall check immediately whether cooling water enters into the water jacket of the diesel engine 5 minutes after starting of diesel engine.

When starting, do not ride the accelerator fiercely, in case of the sudden rise of engine oil pressure. Feeding-up engine oil can't reach the friction surfaces of various parts, leading to quick wear of the parts.

Warnings For Use In Winter

Use in winter must be injected with F35 anti-freezing solution. The radiator curtain must be put down before the engine starts.

When starting the engine, firstly press preheats button, and then start the engine with the key.

When starting the engine in winter air temperature is below -35 ℃, if the warm machine with hot water is used, the water temperature should not be too high, avoiding cracking of the cylinder.

Correctly choose engine oil according to the environmental temperature; When the temperature is lower than 0 ℃, use winter engine oil (see the engine fuel part).

Vehicle Starting

Confirm the manual valve in the terminating braking state. After the engine starts, it shall run at a low speed for a few minutes. The vehicle can start moving when the water temperature reaches 50 ℃. Don't run at an idle speed for a long time.

Work divisions for personnel of the main vehicle and the front vehicle should be defined clearly with united command.

Starting can only be conducted after the completion of all preparations and confirmation meeting requirements.

When starting, break (breaking device) releases. Start from gear 1, which has a similar starting method to a car.
