Chapter 2 Specifications 9
EXCESSIVE LOAD LIMIT SYSTEM (ELLS)
Overloading of the crane is limited by the ELLS system. The system consists of a pressure
switch which is mounted on the extend side of the lower boom cylinder and connected
electrically to the lift side of the winch, the extend side of the extension boom, and the down side
of the lower boom. If the operator attempts to lift a load exceeding the rated capacity of the
crane, the winch lift, extension out and lower boom down functions will not operate. To relieve
the situation, the operator may set the load down (winch down) or retract the extension boom
(extension in).
WINCH
The 5,500 lb planetary winch is powered using a high-torque hydraulic motor. The lifting
capacity of the winch is 5,500 lb (2,495 kg) one-part line. Maximum two-part line winch capacity
is 10,500 lb (4,762 kg). The winch is equipped with 100 ft (30.5 m) of 7/16" (1.1 cm) 6x25 FW
PRF RRL IWRC XIPS wire rope. A compact, anti-two block device is included to prevent the
lower block or hook assembly from coming in contact with the boom sheave assembly. The
winch meets ANSI B30.5 standards.

In addition to these specifications, heavy duty electrical and cooling systems are required. It is
recommended that the vehicle be equipped with an engine tachometer, auxiliary brake lock, and
power steering.
NOTES:
1 GAWR means Gross Axle Weight Rating. GAWR is dependent on all vehicle components
including axles, tires, wheels, springs, brakes, steering and frame strength meeting the
manufacturer's recommendations. Always specify GAWR when purchasing a truck.
2 Minimum axle requirements may increase with use of diesel engines, longer wheelbase or
service bodies. Contact the factory for more information.
3 Weight distribution calculations are required to determine final axle loading.
All chassis, crane and body combinations must be stability-tested to ensure stability per ANSI
B30.5
