Chapter 3 Crane Reference 21
Telescopic Crane Orientation
When an IMT telescopic crane is not factory-installed on a body, the crane is packed with the
boom oriented as it is built on a test stand to facilitate handling. Install the crane on the body
with boom pointing backward. Once the crane is bolted down, it can be rotated 180° (3.14
radians) to the boom rest.
