Frame-mounted jacks and counterweight lifting cylinders enable the crane to self-assemble, which can be controlled via a wireless remote. It can be transported to the Jobsite in just three loads, or four loads when its crawlers are carried separately.<\/p>\n<p>Without the need for outriggers, the<strong> GHC85<\/strong> can quickly move from one static pick to the next. Its ability to maintain 100% pick-and-carry capabilities on inclines up to 4\u00b0 makes it suitable for repetitive utility work, such as setting poles, moving solar panels, or setting up larger cranes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe biggest advantage of a telecrawler is that you can work efficiently on both even and uneven terrain with solid pick-and-carry charts,\u201d said JJ Grace, product manager for GHC cranes.<\/p>\n<p>The 36-inch triple-bar grouser shoes on the tracks offer a high level of stability, in addition to reducing soil compaction, by producing ground bearing pressures as low as 13.2 psi without load, and as high as 24.9 psi with the load.<\/p>\n<p>The crane\u2019s several track span settings (covering both symmetrical and asymmetrical configurations) are made possible by the hydraulically extendable and retractable cross members that enhance stability even further.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe maximum track span is 16.7 ft, but one track could be at 100% and the other at 50%, enabling an operator to maneuver and pick in confined spaces,\u201d Grace explained.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_14124\" style=\"width: 140px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14124\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-14124 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/cranemarket.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Grove-GHC85-85-ton-Telescopic-Boom-Crawler-Crane-1-130x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"130\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Grove-GHC85-85-ton-Telescopic-Boom-Crawler-Crane-1-130x300.jpg 130w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Grove-GHC85-85-ton-Telescopic-Boom-Crawler-Crane-1-444x1024.jpg 444w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Grove-GHC85-85-ton-Telescopic-Boom-Crawler-Crane-1.jpg 462w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 130px) 100vw, 130px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-14124\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The GHC85 comes with an optional 10&#8242; (3 m) left hand stowed heavy-duty jib<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A Cummins B6.7L Tier 3 (218 hp \/ 164 kW) or Tier 4F (249 hp \/ 186 kW) engine powers the two-speed hydrostatic drive, giving the GHC85 a maximum speed of 1.43 mph in the high range, while creep speeds top out at 0.55 mph in low range.<\/p>\n<p>Additional options, such as working range limitation and a cold-weather package, are appealing to those engaged in special civil and hydraulic engineering applications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>High and mighty<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Offering elevations from -3\u00b0 to +80.5\u00b0, the five-section main boom is adjusted via a four-stage cylinder and the heavy-duty jib with a 10\u00b0 offset is stowable on the left-hand side of the boom.<\/p>\n<p>The main and auxiliary hoists\u2019 piston motor and grooved drum facilitate two-speed spooling for smooth operation, with 591 ft of 20 mm wire rope providing a maximum permissible single line pull of 15,876 lb.
