Overall length is not usable deck length. A published side-rail width does not establish the unobstructed support width. Values above come from documentation, never from measuring the artwork.

Configuration notes

What to verify

  • Rating basis: 50 tons in 12-foot length, 52 tons in 16 feet length - GAWR and GVWR determine legal payloads
  • Match the selected deck, neck and axle configuration to the actual build sheet.
  • Read the complete capacity and support conditions at the source; a model-family rating is not automatically transferable.
