I already visited the Passila company once in 2009, back then to shoot their Effer 1750. Since then, the fleet got expanded with a Cormach 135000 and this big Cormach 240000.
|
|
The base is again a Volvo truck, this time a new generation FH500 in 10x4 layout.
|
|
The crane has got the crossed outriggers, the so called X-version from Cormach. This calls for a longer chassis, as these outriggers need some more space at the front of the chassis.
|
|
Here we have a better view of these outriggers. They are stacked above eachother, in a cross shape. Both extend sideways and to the front, giving a good stability to the front as well.
|
|
This side of the long chassis holds the mufler and the dieseltank.
|
|
The crane is a Cormach 240000A-E9 X J404. This means that the base crane will extend 9x and offers an outreach of 23,23 meters. At that distance this crane will still lift almost 6,5 tons!
|
|
The back of the chassis holds a small toolbox. Also the 2 plates for the outriggers are mounted here. At the rear this crane has got 2 swiveling outriggers that can have a maximum angle of 45° and can also extend once. This gives a maximum width on the outriggers of 11,5 meters.
|
|
Currently the jib is taken off, it was in the hal. This can be mounted and then lies between the 2 rear outriggers on the chassis. The J404 offers a total hydraulic outreach of 45 meters with 1050 kg capacity.
|
|
This side of the chassis holds some air barrels, the batteries and the Ad-Blue tank. Below the crane we see the winch.
|
|
The oil tank of the crane is mounted above this side of the outriggers.
|
|
Again a nice crane truck of Passila that does it's work in the cold Finland region.
