Finally got her fully rigged in heavy lift mode, I found reeving the hook
a bit tricky just like the Manitowoc 18000's hook (over, under, miss a pulley
repeated several times then cross from front to back then same as before
but in reverse etc. etc.).
please excuse the dio, it still needs alot of work,
but enjoy anyhow.

looks very tasty, im dying to have mine, i think im going to set mine up with the windmill jib and take my stock one and put the heavy lift head on it and not sure how my repainted one will be displayed yet, probably windmill jib, maybe a 3 crane lift

Very nice photos and it does look good in that livery.

May be you should change the wallpaper in the background. Won't distract us from the dio quite so much Wink

Thanks for showing us.

now theres an idea for putting lifting points where you want them Blutack!! gonna have to try this in the real world when you have those real tricky lifts to balance! you hear that Gaz?? thats where weve been going wrong whilst slinging.

Great pictures by the way. My sarens machine arrived on Monday, havent even opened the box tape. Ready to throw it on to ebay along with the unopened McNallys machine this weekend.

in memory of Biscuit. dearly loved RIP 28.10.08
