I like cranes.

You'd like it until you had to operate it, its one of those God Awful "neck twisters" Sitting in the cab its hard to maneuver anything over the sides, or worse behind you. And I can't even tell you how many times I've busted my shins on the front outrigger getting in and out of the cab.

Sounds like you know this machine. What were you loading or unloading. It is rated at 5 tons at 23 ft. straight out. now that's bad. It is hydrostatic and I would thing 3 or 4 speeds so if you know more let me know as I did not preveiw this monster.

Hanson Machinery is all I know and till I get her home. I know the scamp crane I Just got has a Clark hydro transfer and all parts are still available
