    What to do if IMT Construction Equipment crane functions don't work?
    • M
      Mark SimpsonAug 9, 2025
      If the crane functions, such as boom down, extension out, and winch up, are not working, it may be due to a two-blocking or overload condition. To resolve this, winch down to relieve the two-block condition. Alternatively, boom up, extend in, or winch down to relieve the overload condition.

      Nathaniel WigginsAug 14, 2025
      If the radio remote isn't functioning, it could be due to the emergency stop button being pushed in or a dead remote battery. Try pulling out the emergency stop button. If that doesn't work, replace the battery with a fully charged one.

    Why is my IMT Construction Equipment tethered remote not working?
    • L
      Lori CarrAug 21, 2025
      If the tethered remote isn't working, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the “Power” toggle switch is switched to “Crane”. Also, verify the tether is securely plugged into the connection in the control cabinet. If the issue persists, the tethered control might be broken; in this case, use the buttons on the valve bank to manually stow the crane.

    What to do if my IMT Construction Equipment vehicle tires sink into the ground?

      Greg DavisAug 27, 2025
      If the vehicle tires are sinking into the ground, it is likely due to an unstable work area. Reposition the truck to more stable ground, or use blocks under the tires for added support.

    Why don't my hydraulic outrigger controls function on my IMT Construction Equipment?
    • A
      Amber GraySep 2, 2025
      If the hydraulic outrigger controls aren't working, the crane may not have hydraulic power. Engage the PTO (Power Take-Off) to power the crane’s hydraulic system.
