Abstract
There is provided a method for controlling a crane, with which the position of a hook is automatically adjusted before lift-off, where a freely-derricking telescopic boom is provided to a swivel base, a main hook is suspended with a main wire rope from a distal end section of the telescopic boom, and a suspended load is suspended on a main hook with slinging wire ropes, wherein post-slinging lift-off is preceded by a hook position adjustment control involving repeating: a first process where the control device controls so as to reel in the main wire rope to a position where the main wire rope is tensed; and a second process where the control device controls so as to move the distal end section of the telescopic boom in the same direction of a horizontal direction component of the movement of the main hook in the first process.
