Hiab hoses

[Al Cormack]

crane in stowed mode, don't have any closeups with it open 

Nice! 4 extensions? Must reach a fair distance.

On reel which takes 4, there is two channels in the reel for two pairs if that makes sense.

effer 305 .it's a 5 hydraulic section (also with 1 manual) and a 4 section plus 1 section manual jib.Total horizontal outreach 25 metres with jib max 400kg .16.8 metres without jib capacity of 1245 kg. Will lift 9.2 ton in close

Also got a mecanil grapple saw for it (not hosed yet ) Effer would not let us have it on the jib so we will run it with the manual section on the main crane .

Its a great unit but i would like a bigger crane maybe a 655

Sounds interesting. Is it one reel that takes 4 hoses, or two reels with two hoses each?
Any pics?
Cheers

That's neat! So the hoses are inside the boom after running underneath the second boom?

Did it come like that or did you convert it?

They run into the second boom where it extends, we bought the machine like that. Think the guy who had it before us had the whole rig built and he was into moving timber about so specced it up for that.

I'll have a look at mine to see if this would work.
Thanks for the info.
