A short video of some recent work on a PAT-Hirschmann PDC unit installed on an older Demag PPM Crane. It required a complete rewire due to extensive corrosion.

This could have been avoided if scheduled crane maintenance was strictly followed. This was far costly than a crane maintenance. Crane owners and companies can save a lot of money by doing scheduled crane maintenance on time.

If this was a fuel leak it could have been catastrophic like the crane that caught on fire in Sydney. The crane was irreparable. This one was repaired but at a cost.
