PIPELAYERS

COUNTERWEIGHTS

  • Hydraulically controlled counterweights are swinged horizontally for best machine stability and improved visibility.
  • Four identical segments allow fast install / reinstall for transport purposes.
  • Minimum overall width for easy maneuvering, transportation or shipping.
  • High mounting location provides good ground clearance with counterweights extended for optimum load capacity.

BOOM AND HOOK

  • Both standard length and optional are rugged, welded box-section, built of fine-quality steel foe all weather durability and operation
  • Booms are matched for severe pipelaying stresses
  • Mechanical boom kick-out automatically disengages power to the boom winch, preventing boom damage in its highest position
  • Hook and boom loads with free-fall are actuated by disengaging jaw clutch and moving controls into brake off position. In case of engine failure a suspended load can be lowered on the ground.
  • High strength forged steel hook with its free rotations permits safety of all operation

SERVICEABILITY

  • Most components are easily accessible and removable as single units
  • Grouped service points and easy access to service places make routine checks fast and convenient
  • Diagnostic connectors enable fast troubleshoouting of hydraulic drive train problems
