I was an oiler on her for a few weeks and had enough of the pompus operator so I moved over to a JCB tele-handler forklift with more OT.......Enjoy guys This Wind Farm was in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin at the Blue Sky Greenfield site. 88 total I have plenty more pics if you want some more.:usa
More pics...
Nice looking crane!
That's GOTTA be from last winter........You guys don't have that much snow ALREADY?????????? if it walks like a crane operator and talks like a crane operator..........chances are, no matter what you think.......'THEY'RE RIGHT!!' oHH YEAH.......I'm one of the 'they' LOL
awsome pics! whats the function for two keys?
Very Nice Rig. I put one together last Oct. They are nice. I think I like the lampson paint scheme better than the Red though. It looks Sharp.
Was he pompus or just a case of "big crane syndrome".. Get shots brother ..you gotta grab the lever's on one of those .. ..
Nice pics. I had to drive up that way last summer to Appleton to pick up a bunch of grain bin parts for work, and that was the first time I saw all those windmills up that way. I knew they were up there, just not that many. Definately a sight to see. And to answer Lugghead's question, no we don't have any snow on the ground, yet. Chance of flurries Sun. night into Mon. morning.
Love the pics of the 16000! especially of the controls in the cab. I didnt know TWH made a Lampson version of the 18000 model. I have the ALL crane version. pretty good detail in the model!
Nice looking rig,great pics.
A hydraulic Lampson, a sight I thought I would never see!
I see it has a anomometer(sp?) on the tip of boom. This must be for calculating wind speeds? Do all new cranes have these?
Quiet a few do. Esp cranes outfitted to run a luffer. Manitowoc uses them commonly on their larger rigs.
that's just so the operator knows when to shut the rig down and aggravate every other trade on the job........LOL
^agreed.
