Thread: Interesting, Odd or Funny Pics.

My son in law works for Liebherr. He works on their cranes at port Botany, Townsville, N.Z. and at present is in South Korea fitting a crane to a cargo ship.

that configuration but smaller, same basic boom length too from memory good for something like 1t @25m if you dont have the jib on the side of the boom but only 400k (but more lift height) if you run the jib for full lenght. with the jib I think they're good for 1.4T (limit of the single line winch) upto a 30m lift up close max lift is 8t at about 2m from the front bumper. fitter with 2 winches so you could have a speed line and a reeved block, single reeving block as well so you could run a drop line 2:1,3 or 4:1 from the main winch without having to change the lifting block other than re-reeving it.

the little 8 T job you could park in a normal size car park, lift the boom, sneak it in, back it up to the back of the bay and then lower the boom.

with co-ordinated front 2, rear 2 4 wheel steer and crab you could get them into some amazingly tight places if you had room to lift the boom up

able to operate mobile, static on rubber, half and full length outriggers so you could use them like a mini frenna inside some buildings.

ground weight was only 12T for the 8t lifting one.

available in city crane and all terrain versions (basic difference being tyre width, drive ratio suspension height and overall height) and able to comfortably do 80kph.

Chain bin on the front and if you did it just right you could lift the boom, use the headache ball to open the bin (the one I drove had a replacement handle on it just for doing this) drop the ball into the right part of the bin slew off while you pay out leaving the hook in the bin, lean out of the cab and drop your sling selection on without leaving the cab. IF you were on good ground you could show up, get your instructions setup the crane do the lifting pack it all up, do your paperwork and get gone without even leaving the seat.

Their greatest ability is hold up the M1 at 4am to 5am in the morning when everybody else is trying to do 110. One of the time I wish I had a chain gun on the bonnet.

Is that real?

Maybe it is!

You wouldn't put your head in that water for quids.

I wouldn't put my head under either. See below for how dirty the water is....
