 Comment on this model.
This kit comprises a wind plant jib for the
Liebherr LG 1750 Mobile Crane and the
Liebherr LR 1750
Crawler Crane.
It is in Liebherr yellow, but it is a lighter yellow
than the yellow or early LR 1750 models.
Packaging
The kit comes in a plain box with a sticker indicating
that it contains the parts. The parts are packed within
foam rubber
and the
review set had no defects or missing parts.
No instructions are supplied.
Detail
and Features
One part is a boom section with a lifting head, and the
second part is the auxiliary wind plant jib. The
parts are cast well and include plastic pulleys, and
additionally the auxiliary jib has tiny plastic parts
which appear to be erection rollers.
Plenty of bolts are supplied and the connection of the
parts is a latch arrangement so that the weight of the
jib does not rest on the tip when the crane is being
assembled.
The auxiliary jib is rated at 120 tonnes so the hooks
supplied with the base model of the cranes is too large
and a smaller hook needs to be used to look right.
Quality
and Price
The metal parts are of a robust quality and are
painted well. As with many accessories they are not
cheap.
Overall
This kit adds flexibility to the configurations
available on the crane models and is a worthwhile
addition.
Footnotes
