Boom Design: Catrac is externally mounted and protected by an aluminum cover to avoid damage. Hydraulic hosing is designed with bulk-head sections to allow field replacement without complete disassembly. All slide pads are serviceable from front or rear of boom. Four-plate top hat boom design assures consistent quality and maximum strength at the lowest weight.

Stowed Height: 8' 6" (2.6 m), the industry's lowest stowed height It allows the unit to go places that the rest of the industry cannot go.

Steering: 2-wheel is industry competitive, with an inside turning radius of 9' 5" and with an outside turning radius of only 19' 11".

Chassis: Chassis is designed so options such as 4-wheel drive and oscillating axle can be installed without any chassis modification.

Drive System: Hydrostatic drive provides smooth response and excellent maneuver-ability. Posi-Traction low speed/free flow high speed drive system and 2 drive modes. Low speed flow dividers assure even flow to each motor and restrict flow so that all oil doesn't flow to a free spinning wheel. High speed bypasses the flow dividers to keep the system oil cool for longer driving distances. When the boom is raised above horizontal or extended, the unit is in creep speed mode. High speed drive is 4.2 mph in either 2-wheel or 4-wheel drive to get you to the work area faster.

Weight: T80 has a gross weight of only 29,200 lbs., while the T86J has a gross weight of only 32,600 lbs (with a 6' Jib). Both units are designed to be self-loading.

Mechanic On Board: CONDOR uses a state-of-the-art microprocessor-based control system It is designed with an integrated character alphanumeric red LED intelligent display and intelligent alphanumeric LCD display with back light for nighttime operation. These displays are used to report the status of the sensors, outputs, serial communication, etc. to the machine operator.
