Terex AC70 and 13 related models specifications

AC70 City: the offset head and indoor runner need different charts

The March 2007 AC70 City brochure describes an offsettable top telescopic section, alongside a separate runner intended for work inside buildings. Those arrangements change the lifting geometry. Its contents list separate capacity charts for the angled top section and for the runner; a main-boom chart alone does not cover every attachment pictured in an advertisement.

Count the boom base separately. The technical description gives eight telescoping sections in addition to that base. It also places the hydraulic drive on the carrier engine, with separate pumping for slewing.

A second engine is not identified for this upper structure. The optional additional counterweight comes with its own hydraulic rigging device, while the axle-load example uses the smaller counterweight package. The road-weight example is therefore not a description of the crane carrying every available counterweight plate.

AC80-2 engine editions keep their torque-speed conditions

Both original AC80-2 technical sheets opened here identify the six-cylinder OM501LA, unlike the earlier reference entry's eight-cylinder OM402LA. The documents still differ: the May 2005 sheet lists an earlier emissions certification and a different torque-speed point from the later Tier 3 sheet. Keep the document edition with those figures.

Combining the later engine's emissions label with the older torque-speed entry creates a specification neither sheet prints.

Its counterweight is distributed between the superstructure and carrier deck, with another package available as an option. The carrier's standard drive-and-steer configuration also differs from the optional all-wheel arrangement. These distinctions give a buyer something concrete to identify in photographs and equipment records.

A single gross weight or “all terrain” description cannot establish either package.

AC395: an axle figure and a hook-block limit answer different questions

The AC395 transport example lists five axle loads, not the fifty-four printed in the earlier reference entry. Its stated mass includes a named boom extension, hook block, counterweight and spare wheel. Changing that equipment changes the transport question.

The hook-block table is equally conditional. It separates block type, permissible load, sheaves, rope parts and the block's own weight, and marks the heavy-lift attachment where required. The number on a block does not establish the crane's capacity at a particular radius.

The footnotes also make the block ratings conditional on the permitted line pull under national regulations.
