does anyone run a county and highland bear crane or remember what order the controls are in. i ran one for years back in the 90,s .

i,ve recently set up a crane on my renault and would like to change the functions to the some order.

even though it has been over 20 years since i worked the highland bear, my hands seem to be working against my brain with the new crane.

ideally, i would like to fit 2lever controls but i,ve enough money spent for the time being..

thanks; sean

Easiest way to get to common knowledge would be with teleflex conversion and two buttons. The firm used to be in Redhill but moved north and I cannot remember the new name.
