Stellar Industries’ 6,000-pound capacity EC6000 crane is rated at 38,000 foot-pounds and offers a 21-foot hydraulic and manual boom reach. The crane has a short 11.4-foot stowed length and a 34.41-inch low profile design to fit behind the chassis cab. The crane features a piggy-back boom design to provide strength, and features a radio remote control. A true worm gear rotation uses a high-strength steel ball bearing turntable gear and steel worm gear, as well as cast steel housing. The planetary winch system has a 2.5-horsepower permanent magnet electric motor to make sure the winch continues to lift to the crane’s full capacity. Environmentally friendly hydraulic oil is non-toxic, non-carcinogenic, recyclable and biodegradable.
