I worked on a big beast today. It is a Manitowac crane. The way it sets right now it weighs right around 950,000 lbs. It has a 440 ton capacity. The picture of the one up in the air is identical and it is stretched out to appoximatly 325 feet it is preparing to make a 63 ton lift. Fully dressed they can wiegh over 1,000,000 lbs. Operator said the counter wieghts on the rear weight 18,000 lbs each. I was told they have a price tag of about $6,000,000 and that doesn't include all of the options.

Troubleshot the drive system for the right track, it quit moving. Something has failed in the hydrostat. All it has is charge psi.
