Technical specifications

 

Weight: 330 kg (727 lbs)

Lifting capacity: 1.200 kg (2.645 lbs)

Technical Requirements

Hydraulic - 1 single or double acting hydraulic valve at the end of the crane boom

Connection options

  • If the crane has 2 hydraulic circuits at the end of the crane boom these can be connect directly to the respective cylinders. This gives the operator the possibility to operate both the tilt and the clamping functions directly from the remote control of the crane.

  • If the crane has 1 hydraulic circuit at the end of the crane boom, the circuit can be connected to a directional valve mounted on the Easy Gripper Crane. This gives the operator the possibility to operate the tilt function directly from the remote control of the crane. When the operator wants to use the clamping function, he will have to use the same function on the remote control and at the same time activate the spring-loaded directional valve. In this way we will have our usual safety precaution of a two-hand operation for open/close build-in the way to operate the crane.

  • If no hydraulic circuits are available at the end of the crane boom you can use an air hydraulic pump to operate the two functions. But you have to make sure that this pump is able to deliver sufficient oil flow to give a decent cycle time for the two hydraulic functions.

Supporting tools and accessories

Even though the Easy Gripper is an incredible tyre handler / tyre manipulator, it can not do the entire tyre service job on it’s own. Therefore, we offer you following high-quality tools and accessories to support other parts of the tyre service processes.
