Very interesting! Have you done more on the mechanical components of the crane itself [winch motors and reduction, trolley system, etc]. These things are fascinating! Thanks for sharing all of this, it's much appreciated!

On the bottom near the tires there are wires that stick out and sometimes they hit my mirror on the passenger side and the crane stops for a few seconds.

[@Cranedaddytiktok]

Yes, those are on the front and the back of the cranks they make it to where we cannot well I don’t want to say cannot, but it’s supposed to stop the crane before it does major damage

[@JimmyJack-hc2jo]

Some of the cranes have red plastic trash cans on the bottom of the cranes. Does it really get that dirty inside the cranes?

[@Cranedaddytiktok]

Yes, some people are just complete slobs and have no respect for their fellow operators. It’s a sad situation One. I hope the union addresses with some sort of a fine.
