Mack Technician Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Must be made for small bites and lots of swing travel judging from the boom-to-cylinder size ratio? We once tried a Liehberr 934C with a 70 foot boom. Salesman spec'ed it as do-able. They got it here and it couldn't pick a full (3/4 cord) grapple of Oak on the stretch, lol, oopsy.
