Can we reach?
Making sure our crane can handle your lift is critical, below you will find a copy of the Range Diagram and below that a load chart. The load chart has all the deductions (jib,block,ball) made already, this chart is the load radius measured from the crane’s center of rotation to the center of gravity of the load you are wanting to lift. This is not from the rear or the side of the crane it is from the center of where the crane rotates and is refered to as the Center Pin. The minuimum distance from the Center Pin to the edge of an outrigger is 10ft and must be accounted for when measuring. Below you will find other things to considered when planning a lift with a crane.

Can the crane fit?
The Crane itself is just a little under 40ft long, 9ft wide and 11'3'' tall. Once it is in place the outriggers need at least a 22ft square to use the crane at full capacity. It can be used with the outriggers at mid extend or full retracted, but the load chart is drastically reduced.
Power Lines?
Electricity and cranes do not go together, one major consideration before renting a crane is to check the job site for any above ground power lines. Any part of the crane must stay at least 20ft from the power lines. Nothing is alllowed to be picked above the power lines under any circumstances.
Site Conditions?
Our 40 ton crane is not an all terrain crane and ultimately the customer is responsible for any time or money resulting from the crane being stuck. Sometimes spending a little money for rock or having an excavator clean up things before the crane arrives saves money in the long run and makes things easier, safer and less time consuming.
