The new heavy-duty units are self-propelled and battery
operated, equipped with variable speed drives for propulsion making it capable of very
slow speeds of only 10" per minute for precision positioning or fine alignment.
Then it can speed up to 4 mph. The steering control handle swings 90° to the left
and right for turning sharp corners. The control handle is also equipped with an
emergency automatic reverse feature. In addition, the unit has an automatic
brake--when the handle is released, the safety brake is activated. Further, if the
handle is pushed excessively up or down, the brake is activated to ensure safety.
The units are built to be very narrow at only 34" wide
for ease of passage through narrow doorways, aisles, or between machinery, making it
versatile and maneuverable. The lifting action as well as the powered telescopic
boom ins hydraulically operated for smooth and quick operation. The hydraulic system
has a built-in safety relief valve to prevent overloading.
There is an optional winch cable lift available that is also
hydraulically operated for working below ground level such as inside manholes or working
on lower levels of building or on mezzanines.
The most desirable feature of the Reversible Boom Crane is
the 82" clear reach of the boom beyond its wheels when extended in addition to the
lifting height of 128" with boom retracted and 170" with the boom fully
extended. The rated capacities are based on the unit with the boom fully retracted
while capacities drop by 50% when the boom is fully extended.
The units are built of heavy-duty steel construction for
heavy industrial use, yet are very maneuverable and agile. The mobility is further
enhanced by roller-bearing-equipped, polyurethane wheels for smooth, quiet operation that
will also protect floors.
The new cranes are ideal for so many applications where heavy
industrial maintenance and mobility are required such as. . .in lifting and removing heavy
motors, compressors, boilers, air conditioning units, removing large flywheels, installing
heavy molds and dies, machine feeding of heavy parts, assembly work, aircraft maintenance,
removing and installing jet engines, construction on mechanical structure erection and so
on.
The new Reversible Boom Cranes will increase productivity,
performance, improve safety, and make the job easier.
