The outriggers can be safely positioned at a number of angles, controlled by a moment limiter, the company said. A boom slewing limit can also be set. The new model also has a detachable electric motor, a flashing LED indicating the crane’s working status, stowable travel levers, and a new radio remote control from HBC-radiomatic with paddle-type controllers.
