Installation Overview
1. Determine that the mounting location for the 14528 crane is at least 25” x 22” (63.5 x 55.9 cm).
2. Use the detail below to drill 1.31” diameter holes into the mounting plate. Run tap on the threads of the
base to be sure they are clean.
3. Use a crane or lifting device capable of lifting the weight of the Stellar crane. The Stellar 14528 weighs
approximately 3100 lbs (1406 kg). Note: cranes are shipped with rotation positioned at 200 degrees of 400
degree system. This will allow for easy installation of the crane and permanent connection of all hydraulic

6. Install a washer on each bolt.
7. Apply Loctite Thread locker #277 to the bolts.
8. Using the lifting device, lower the Stellar just above the crane compartment and start the bolts. Have
someone assist in leveling the crane. Note: the rotation motor should be to the door side of crane
compartment and the boom should be extended back over the rear bumper.
9. Secure the crane using the mounting hardware provided (see the detail below). Note: longer or shorter
cap screws may be required – recommended thread engagement into crane base is 1.75” – use grade 8,
zinc plated cap screws only.
