Indo Power 23FN Maintenance Checklist
Daily pre-start checks · Service schedule by operating hours · Warning alert actions — Indo Power 23FN 23T pick & carry crane, Volvo-Eicher CEV BS IV 74 kW HPCR diesel, six-falls hoist with fail-safe brake, and fully air-operated S-cam brakes. Covers carrier (travel) and crane (lifting) maintenance.
Daily Pre-Start Checklist
Complete before every shift. Estimated time: 10–15 minutes. Do not operate if any check fails.
Every Shift
1
Engine Oil Level
Dipstick check with engine cold, on level ground. Level must be between MIN and MAX marks. Top up with API CH-4/CI-4 SAE 15W-40 [verify with OEM] if below MIN.
Act if: oil below MIN — top up before starting. Black or milky oil — stop and investigate.
2
Engine Coolant
Check overflow reservoir — level between MIN and MAX. Open radiator cap only when cold. Top up with Eicher Genuine Coolant (50:50 mix) [verify with OEM].
Act if: level below MIN. Milky coolant = possible head gasket leak — do NOT operate.
3
DEF / Ad-Blue Level
Check the Ad-Blue gauge/indicator on the dash (27 L tank). Maintain minimum 5 L before operation to avoid a BS IV SCR engine derate.
Act if: level below 5 L or warning lamp ON — refill immediately. Engine will derate.
4
Fuel Level
Check the fuel gauge (198 L tank). Fill with clean High Speed Diesel. Drain any water from the fuel pre-filter bowl drain cock.
Act if: fuel below ¼ tank. Water in bowl — drain fully before starting.
5
Hydraulic Oil
Check the sight glass on the hydraulic tank (170 L) — level between marks. Top up with same grade ISO VG 46/68 [verify with OEM] if below lower mark.
Act if: level below lower mark — top up. Foam or discolouration = contamination.
6
Hoist Rope Condition
Visual inspection of the 6-fall rope for kinks, bird-caging, broken wires, or flat spots along its full length.
Act if: any broken wires, kinking, or diameter reduction > 6% — rope must be replaced before use.
7
Hook Block & Latch
Check that the latch snap-closes fully and the swivel rotates freely. Confirm the self-adjusting mechanism operates. No cracks on the block.
Act if: latch not closing — do NOT lift. Cracks or deformation — quarantine for repair.
8
Outrigger Pads & Pins
Extend outriggers fully. Check pads for cracks. Verify all locking pins are inserted before lifting.
Act if: any pin missing or pad cracked — do NOT lift until repaired.
9
Tyres (all 8 nos.)
Visual check of all 8 tyres (12.00×20 – 18 PR) for cuts, bulges, sidewall damage, or abnormal pressure drop. Check that valve caps are fitted.
Act if: visible cut, bulge, or soft tyre — change before travelling or lifting.
10
Air Cleaner Indicator
Check the choke indicator lamp or restriction gauge on the air cleaner before starting the engine.
Act if: indicator lamp ON / in red zone — clean the primary air filter before starting the engine.
11
Lights & Signals
Test the reverse lamp, indicators, horn, and beacon (if fitted). Check mirrors before moving.
Act if: any lamp failed — repair before moving the crane on a public road or busy site.
12
Leak Check (walk-round)
Inspect under the crane and along all hose runs for oil, fuel, coolant, or hydraulic leaks.
Act if: any active drip or puddle — identify the source; do NOT operate until the leak is fixed.
13
Cabin & Controls
Confirm all levers/pedals move freely. Test the parking brake. Check the cabin structure for cracks or damage.
Act if: parking brake not holding on a slope — do NOT operate.
14
Boom & Fly Jib Pins
If the 3 m fly jib is fitted: verify all 4th-section pins are engaged and the retaining clips are locked before lifting.
Act if: any pin not fully home or a clip missing — lower and re-pin before lifting.
Note: the Indo Power 23FN is both a self-propelled vehicle and a lifting machine — complete the carrier checks (tyres, air brakes, fuel, engine, DEF) and the crane checks (hoist rope, hook, outriggers, fly-jib pins) before the first lift. The 4th boom section is power-extended but must be manually pinned — always verify pin engagement before lifting.
Service Schedule by Hourmeter
Use the hourmeter reading — do not delay when a service is due. Read cumulatively. CHANGE / REPLACE / INSPECT / GREASE / CHECK.
Daily — every shift. Carried forward into every higher service interval.
Engine & Fuel
Engine oil & coolant levels
Dipstick (cold) + coolant overflow reservoir between MIN and MAX
CHECK
Fuel level + water separator
Top up with High Speed Diesel; drain water from fuel pre-filter bowl
CHECK
DEF / Ad-Blue level
27 L tank — keep above 5 L to avoid BS IV SCR derate
CHECK
Air cleaner choke indicator
Clean primary element if the indicator is alarmed before start
CHECK
Hydraulics & Hoist
Hydraulic oil level
Sight glass on 170 L reservoir; inspect hose runs for leaks
Risk if ignored: overheating, warping, and head-gasket failure.
AMBER
Air Cleaner Restriction Alarm
Primary air-filter element clogged; choke indicator active.
Immediate action: stop operations and clean the primary air-filter element before restarting.
Risk if ignored: reduced engine power and turbocharger damage from restricted intake airflow.
AMBER
Hydraulic Oil Overtemperature
Excessive hydraulic cycling, low oil level, or contaminated oil.
Immediate action: stop crane operations. Check hydraulic oil level and allow system to cool before resuming.
Risk if ignored: hydraulic-seal failure, system contamination, costly repair.
AMBER
DEF / Ad-Blue Low Level
Ad-Blue below 10% of the 27 L tank (about 2.7 L).
Immediate action: refill Ad-Blue at the earliest opportunity. Do not allow the tank to run empty.
Risk if ignored: engine derate and eventual shutdown for BS IV SCR compliance.
AMBER
Hoist Rope Abnormality
Kinks, bird-caging, broken wires, or flat spots visible on hoist rope.
Immediate action: stop all lifts immediately. Quarantine crane. Arrange rope inspection and replacement.
Risk if ignored: rope failure under load and fatality risk.
AMBER
Boom Synchronisation Fault
One or more boom sections are not extending/retracting in sequence.
Immediate action: lower boom fully retracted. Do not use crane until synchronisation is adjusted/repaired.
Risk if ignored: section overextension, boom structural damage, or collapse under load.
AMBER
Abnormal Tyre Condition
Visible bulge, sidewall cut, or rapid air loss on any tyre.
Immediate action: stop travel. Change affected tyre(s) before moving or lifting.
Risk if ignored: tyre blowout, rollover risk, instability during pick-and-carry lifts.
AMBER
Steering Response Abnormal
Heavy steering, wandering, or play in the articulation joint.
Immediate action: stop travel. Inspect steering rams and articulation pivot. Do not use on public road.
Risk if ignored: loss of steering control, collision, or rollover risk.
Critical operating rule: any RED alert requires immediate crane shutdown and load lowering before any other action. Never diagnose or repair while a load is suspended. AMBER alerts must be resolved before the next shift unless the site manager authorises written risk controls.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about the Indo Power 23FN Pick & Carry Crane
The Indo Power 23FN has a maximum rated lifting capacity of 23,000 kg (23 T). The Safe Working Load (SWL) is 85% of the tipping load and the hoist uses a six-falls rope configuration.
The crane has a 19.59 m standard boom height and 22.58 m maximum lifting height with the 3 m fly jib. Horizontal reach is 17.0 m without fly jib and 20.15 m with fly jib.
It uses a 4-part telescopic boom. Three sections are hydraulically powered and fully synchronised; the 4th section is power-extended but must be manually pinned for safe operation. The luffing range is -4° to +66°.
The 23FN uses a Volvo-Eicher (VECV) CEV BS IV diesel engine rated at 74 kW / 101 hp @ 2,200 rpm. It has a heavy-duty synchromesh transmission with auxiliary gearbox, 10 forward + 2 reverse gears, and 4 Wheel Drive (4WD).
Key listed systems include a fail-safe hoist brake, counterbalance valve, self-adjusting hook block, fully air-operated S-cam dual-circuit service brakes, fail-safe parking brakes, ECU engine management, 5/6 spool control valve, monochrome digital cluster, and rear-view camera.
