Abstract
A crane anti-tipping device is provided that includes a warning alarm unit in the cab of the crane which includes two spaced switches each of which is responsive to a predetermined tilting of the crane to close an electric circuit to activate the warning alarm unit that the crane is at a dangerous degree of tilt. A modification provides a sensing device incorporated with a stabilizing foot which will activate an alarm in the crane cab that the ground bearing pressure of the stabilizing foot exceeds a preset magnitude.
