peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1lubrication setting (must be set and locked) Explanation: It sounds like whatever control actuator is used to set the lubrication setting is a rocker of some kind. I doubt that the rocking action is critical here; it is only important that the setting be made and locked. IMO the sentence should be recast. The essence is that the system must be locked in the lubrication setting. |

luffed into the lubrication position Explanation: The jib system must have been luffed into the lubrication position and locked before entering of the landings is possible/allowed. (the lubrication position is the smallest radius of the crane, i.e. when the jib system is luffed in nearest to the crane column) luffing in - einwippen luffing out - auswippen |
