CRANE INSTALLATION
HT25KX
BODY REINFORCEMENT
The truck body must be reinforced and outriggers provided to withstand the combined loads
resulting from lifting and the weight of the crane and boom.
The maximum combined overturning moment for the HT25KX is 27,000 ft. lbs.
The maximum vertical load is 6500 lbs.
CRANE MOUNTING
The crane base plate or mounting pedestal must be bolted to the body reinforcing plate with
eight (8) grade five (5) bolts of 3/4" dia. with either coarse or fine threads. A 4.5" dia. hose
clearance hole must be cut in this plate to allow the hoses to swing and coil freely.
ROTATION POSITIONING
The HT cranes are shipped with the boom rotated to the middle of the 400 degree rotation
travel limit. The location of this middle position relative to the center line of the truck must be
decided prior to mounting. It can be in any position that pleases the users since the boom can
always reach the storage and travel position by rotating one way or the other.
HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS
The crane is furnished with a pressure and a return hose that come down through the center of
the housing. These hoses are to be arranged in the compartment or pedestal below the crane
as shown on drawing I19213 using the angle bulkhead fittings furnished in the installation kit.
These hoses are to be connected in a relaxed position as shown on I19213, while the crane is
at the midpoint of the 400 degree rotation range as received -- regardless of the final position
of the boom during storage/travel.
The bulkhead fittings may be located on any side of the compartment relative to the middle of
rotation position.
The crane pressure and return hoses have different sizes of SAE 37 degree flare swivel
fittings. The smaller swivel is on the pressure hose which has a 3/8 flare. The larger swivel is
on the return hose which has a 1/2 flare.
