RT 600 E Grove crane - load chart, specs & dimensions (2003 - 2008)

Smooth operation

The RT600E uses a 12,008 lb pinned-on counterweight. Cable power is provided through model GHP30A grooved drum hoists with 16,800 lb permissible line pull. Maximum line speed is 588 fpm.

Boom Nose

Three nylon sheaves mounted on heavy-duty tapered roller bearings with removable pin-type rope guards. Quick-reeve type boom nose. Additionally, there is an optional removable auxiliary boom nose with a removable pin type rope guard.

Swing

Planetary swing with foot-applied multi-disc brake. Spring applied, hydraulically-released swing brake and plunger-type, one position, mechanical house lock operated from cab. Optional 360° mechanical swing lock. Maximum speed: 2.5 rpm.

Axles

Front: Drive/steer with differential and planetary reduction hubs rigid-mounted to frame. Rear: Drive/steer with differential and planetary reduction hubs pivot-mounted to frame. Automatic full hydraulic lockouts on rear axle permit oscillation only with boom centered over the front.

Cab

The RT600E cab includes: hot water heater/defrostersingle axis joystick controllerssliding skylight and adjustable sunscreenengine instrumentationfull acoustical lining. The graphic display LMI includes a work area definition system which allows the operator to define a preferred working area.

Load moment and anti-two block system

Standard “Graphic Display” load moment and anti-two block system with audio-visual warning and control lever lockout. These systems provide electronic display of boom angle, length, radius, tip height, relative load moment, maximum permissible load, load indication and warning of impending two-block condition. The system defaults to 360° on rubber chart. The standard Work Area Definition System allows the operator to pre-select and define working areas. If the crane approaches the pre-set limits, audio-visual warnings aid the operator in avoiding job-site obstructions.

Chassis

Box section frame fabricated from high-strength, low alloy steel. Integral outrigger housings and front/rear lifting, towing, and tie down lugs.

Outrigger system

Four hydraulic telescoping single-stage double box beam outriggers with inverted jacks and integral holding valves. Three position setting. All steel fabricated, quick-release type round outrigger floats, 610 mm (24 in) diameter. Maximum outrigger pad load: 31 344 kg (69,100 lb).
