95201 (81S) Warning Plate - Rolvenden, 23.7. 2012

The chains are for locking the two (out of picture) clutch engagement handwheels in the 'withdrawn' position to avoid accidental or malicious engagement. Hauling or shunting the crane with one or both clutches engaged would be likely to result in severe mechanical damage.
