What the specifications mean
The headline capacity applies at a short radius. Boom, jib, ballast and outrigger configuration control usable capacity and transport preparation.

A brochure configuration is not an individual marketplace machine. Serial/PIN and build information are required for exact verification.
Used LRT 1090-2.1 inspection priorities
- Request the exact charts, inspection/certification records and configuration inventory; have qualified specialists assess structure, ropes, hooks and indicators.
- Record the exact serial/PIN, installed options and inspection limitations. These are purchase inspection priorities, not claims of a model-specific failure pattern.
Configuration-aware inspection: these checks are triggered by machine category, installed configuration and technology package. Brochure-listed technology must be physically present, active, licensed and calibrated on the used machine.
Hours, condition and ownership cost
Hours are context, not a condition grade. Duty cycle, idle time, maintenance evidence, wear-system measurements, structural repairs and installed technology should be evaluated together.
Cost drivers to model
- Compare the required lifts and mobilization package, including ballast and support preparation. A larger nominal capacity does not establish a cheaper or feasible lift.
- Use the ownership calculator with quoted repairs, actual scheduled hours, utilization and transport costs; leave unknown assumptions visible.

Attachment considerations
Relationships below identify relevant classes only unless a stronger evidence state is shown. They never assert exact used-attachment fitment.
Hook blocks, jibs and lifting accessories
Verify serial-specific chart, reeving, component weight, manufacturer approval.
Open attachment researchBefore confirming fitment
- generation and machine configuration
- mounting interface, coupler or pin geometry
- hydraulic flow, pressure, return and case drain
- attachment weight and machine capacity limits
- electrical controls or required machine options
Model-reference transport profile
