“Why is my crane beeping at me?”

One of the most common calls we get on a Tadano rough terrain crane is about an alarm going off with no error code.

Most of the time, it’s something simple:

* If the outrigger selection switches are turned on and left for a few seconds without actually moving an outrigger, the crane will start beeping.
* Another common one, changing steering modes without having the tires fully straight will also trigger a beeping or buzzing alarm.
