Crane Installation
GENERAL
This section contains instructions for the installation of your crane. Prior to installing the crane
and hydraulic components, make sure that the chassis is ready to receive the crane (see the
Installation Section of the IMT Telescopic Crane Operation & Safety Manual, 99903514).
Reinforce the chassis frame, as necessary, and install the PTO and pump.
Each installation may vary in components used. It is important to use hoses of proper length,
pumps of correct size, and PTO’s of adequate speed. Study the applicable installation kit in the
parts section before attempting any installation.
CRANE INSTALLATION
In addition to meeting Minimum Chassis Specifications, there must be sufficient room for
mounting the crane and the platform must be strong enough to support the crane and rated load.
Install the crane only on an IMT designed and approved truck body. The body must be designed
to sustain the forces imposed by the crane when lifting the full rated load. In addition, an IMT
designed body is designed to take full advantage of the standard reservoir placement. This
reservoir is installed in the cargo area of the body. Before attempting to install the crane, the
body must be installed.
To install the crane:
1 Use a lifting device capable of lifting the weight of the crane, up to 2,350 lb (1066 kg). Attach
fabric slings to the crane lower boom, centered approximately 18 inches from the mast
hinge. Make certain the crane is well balanced on the slings by slowly lifting approximately 6"
off the ground. Lift the crane, apply a bead of waterproof compound, such as silicon based
caulk, to the bottom of the base. Move the chassis under the crane and lower the crane into
the desired position.
