Welcome
Thank you for purchasing a Penny Hydraulics crane. This is a unique design that is built in
our factory to your specification. Each crane is tailor-made, and we trust that it meets with
your approval and provides you with a safe, efficient and trouble-free means of moving
goods for many years.
This manual explains what you need to know about the crane’s operation together with
some useful guidance on safety and general care. It also explains the servicing requirements
and the availability of a service agreement should you wish to take advantage of it. We have
our own engineers around the country lead by our Central Service Department to give an
exceptional after-sales service.
The crane will normally be vehicle mounted and operated by hold to run controls with all
functions being protected by inbuilt overload features and powered by the vehicle’s battery.
We strongly recommend that an operator of any crane is trained in its use and has read all
the details set out in this booklet.
