Interesting unit, you had best know what your outriggers are setting on with a rig that size, that is for sure, cannot imagine just the dunnage detail for one that heavy, steel plates must be quite large. How much counterweight can that unit carry on it's own ? Must be several loads of same when doing a job like erecting or taking down a tower crane with that unit, as shown in the photos.
I used to do lot of erecting work with hydraulic type mobile units, mostly Krupp and Liebher's in NYC,the Demag was appearing to become more popular in some of the crane outfits fleets.
