Pc400lc-7 counter weight removal

Machine is 2 hours away. I have not removed this counter weight before. Easy to do? Is there a procedure? Thanks in advance!

    It had the removal system which made it simple to do. Remove bottom bolts which was a 64MM socket and then use the hydraulic functions for the weight removal system. If you do not have the removal system you are in for a bit more of a treat!

    Self-erecting on a 400? Someone splurged for that option. Glad you had a good experience.

    I've never seen that on a 400. Would the system set the counterweight on the ground or did you have to set it on blocks.

    very cool find. Still over width but definitely in a different weight class.
