What to do if my Advantec Laboratory Equipment crane boom won't extend, luff, or rotate?
- MMrs. Heidi VincentAug 4, 2025
If the Advantec Laboratory Equipment crane boom isn't extending, luffing, or rotating, here are a few things to check: * Ensure you're pressing the correct button. * Verify the control breaker is on. * Confirm the engine driving the hydraulics is running and reset the control breaker if necessary. * Inspect the breaker for any blown fuses. * Check all pendant control and battery connections on the ship side, and call an electrician if issues persist. * Examine the hydraulic oil level for leaks and top up if needed. * If the hydraulic control valve isn't shifting, consider cleaning or replacing the cartridge valve (consult the dealer for instructions). * If a control solenoid is burnt out, replace it (consult the dealer for instructions).
