I bought it privately from Germany, saw the ad on Mascus. All well and good but getting a loler on it has required a few quid spending on English decals and manual etc.  

Does your operating manual look generic or is it a dedicated one?

Also did you manage to source a parts manual. I could never get a parts book from the Oz dealer

assuming it the same as mine 100kg at 12 metres , 200kg at 10 and 14 metres up and over

Nice. Similar to the multitel then. They are very versatile aren’t they?

very. Cela now do a 40 metre light truck mount with 17 metre outreach and up and of height of 20 metres. Don't know if I would like being up at 40 with a small canter truck as the base though

Thanks for the rundown on your problems and fixes...you're persitant that's for sure, most people would've got shot of the machine a long time ago I'm sure. 

 

The original manual is in German but it is soecufic to my machine as it states the serial number. I've managed to get a copy of an English manual from someone that has a 2018 model of the same machine and theirs states the specific serial number too. Neither include a parts book. 

 

As you previously mentioned the reach on mine is similar to yours, 12m outreach with 100kgs, 11.5 with 120kgs and 9m up to 230kgs

They are very similar to the multitel smx225 but the 2 main differences I see is the minimum width being 820mm compared to around 1m on the multitel and the overall weight being about 300kgs heavier on the Cela. 

 

Oh oh and mine is also rated to use as a crane up to 260kgs and comes with a "hook" attachment.

I would not be able to get rid of the machine in good conciseness and also i live in a remote area. My manual has my model number on the inside cover page but the whole book itself is generic and mostly covers other models, is yours the same? 

Mine also has the 'crane' hook but only 230kg on it. We have a proper crane so i have never used it
