FIND THE RIGHT FIT Working With Your Crane Provider to Match the Rig to the Job

Crane manufacturers incorporate modular designs into newer machine models so that components that can be moved efficiently and in the fewest number of loads possible.

Johnson Bros. Crane works on temporary construction to remove and replace the railway bridge over Crane Creek in Melbourne, Fla.

By Lucy Perry CEG CORRESPONDENT

When 95 percent of its fleet is working every day, that’s good for the crane company. But it makes for a chaotic workload for estimators and dispatchers, the folks who have to fit the crane to the job. When the customer calls, it helps if he knows as much as possible about the project so all the bases are covered with the right rig and operator. “It’s been a very good market for the past few years,” said Ole Pedersen, estimator/project manager of NessCampbell Crane + Rigging, Portland, Ore.

Crazy Schedule “We like to call it organized chaos,” he said of the fast-paced environment in which he works. NessCampbell typically runs 120 cranes in a given week. The number fluctuates because the company sometimes rents cranes itself. “As we get busier, we rent machines and operate them with our own staff,” said Pedersen.

The company maintains a fleet of 60 cranes in each of its locations in Seattle and Portland. The majority are rubber-tired mobile cranes. Hydraulic truck cranes and all-terrain cranes dominate NessCampbell’s fleet. And the company operates much like a taxi-crane service. “The schedule is crazy,” said Pedersen. “We drive the crane to the site, set up and make the lift. The majority of our calls are one- or two-day jobs, so we need to get in, get out and on to the next job.” He and a team of NessCampbell estimators and dispatchers work diligently, “to keep up with everything customers throw at us on a given day.” And what customers don’t know about their projects may be very little in the eyes of an estimator. Pedersen said about 90 percent of his customers need to be educated about the factors that must be taken into account to choose the right crane. “They know what they need to have happen, they just don’t know what size machine it takes.” So, he starts with the basic questions: “Are we going to set continued on page 10


from page 9

“If you can move the crane boom with the outrigger boxes, swing-away jib, block, ball and some counterweight, you are going to save the entire operation time during the setup process once everything is at the construction site.” Weiss Brothers

up in the street or in a parking lot? What is access like to the site? How tall are any adjacent buildings?” Then there’s the question about load radius — how far in to the structure does the operator need to take the load? Is the load being placed on a building? How close can the operator get to the structure with a crane? “Another big question: What capacity percentage is allowed by the general contractor on the site?” said Pedersen. He also asks what kind of rigging they need for the load. “A lot of times I ask them to send cut sheets of the load being lifted, maybe show rigging attached to it and how heavy the pieces are.” Pedersen said many times customers don’t understand just how big the crane actually is with outriggers out. They think the crane will fit in one lane of traffic. “With pads on the ground, a crane footprint’s is going to be about 30 feet wide. That surprises a lot of people, how wide the crane is with outriggers.” If multiple counterweights are involved, people don’t always realize the staging space involved, including trucks and trailers to haul everything to the site. “Good access is needed, not just for the crane but to support the loads that come along with the crane.” If space is lacking and the crew can take only one truck in and out at a time, it takes longer to assemble the crane. Julian Leek photo If a boom extension or luffing jib has to be installed, room is needed to perform that task. All Crane works on a new train overpass on Orlando “Every job is different,” said Pedersen. “Each SR528 and SR15 in job is unique and should be priced on a job-byOrlando, Fla. job basis.” He said just because a customer used a 65-ton boom truck last week doesn’t mean they’ll need the same crane, especially on a different project this week. He said many customers make assumptions like this one. Some plug in a crane number without talking to the estimator first. “People will call and request a specific crane. I want to run through all scenarios of the lift, the load weight, the rigging on the crane,” said Pederson. Once he gets the basics of the project, he still goes out to look at the job site before he quotes the job, “just to verify.” Pederson is clear it’s simply a matter of working smarter. “I don’t want to send a crane and not have it do the job.” So, he spends time out looking at projects before he sits down at his computer to create a lift plan and job quote. “Except for the projects that need to be engineered — we have in-house engineers on the big lift plans. But for most basic projects I do my own lift plans.”

Crane Smarts Often, customers are savvy enough to know exactly what they need in a rig for their job. Pedersen said that’s only about 5 percent of his clients. “A lot of times companies have their own cranes,” said Pedersen. “They do know about cranes and load charts, sizes and accessibility and what needs to happen in site prep for the crane to set up safely.” 10

More than half of Beyel Brothers’ customers are repeats and know their way around a crane. Steve Beyel, vice president of the Cocoa, Fla.-based crane and rigging company, said they’re usually working on big projects. “Most of our customers on utility projects are customers we’ve had for years, and they know what they need. Beyel does have many new customers so it does not bid a job without sending out a crane consultant. “We like to call ourselves ‘problem solvers,’” said Beyel. “We go out, take a look at the job and then decide on the best piece of equipment to do their project at the best price for the job.” But the process always begins with the questions about job location and conditions. “We ask what kind of surface the crane will be working on. Is it sand, asphalt or concrete?” said Beyel. Then, he’ll get more info on the job itself. “What kind of job is it? Are we lifting light poles, setting a transformer, placing an HVAC system or roof trusses?” To decide on the best crane for the job, he needs load capacity, weights, radii, elevations and ground conditions. Beyel also determines whether the site involves utilities, whether there are power lines overhead, and whether there are underground manholes or piping. “We have to know what’s underneath, what the crane is being set on top of.” He said customers often don’t consider whether there is clear access to the job site. Not only are power lines an obstacle, but trees can get in the

way. So can septic tanks and water mains, gas lines, even sprinkler systems. “When you pull up to an industrial site, you need to know whether there are underground utilities and the ground-bearing pressure on the outriggers,” said Beyel. Beyel Brothers runs about 250 cranes in capacities from 5 tons to 1,200 tons. The fleet includes 75 all-terrain cranes, 75 rough-terrain cranes and 75 crawlers. Other machines in the fleet include boom trucks, carry deck cranes, forklifts, gantries, hydraulic platform trailers and dual lane loading trailers.

Organized Chaos Both Pedersen and Beyel love that they do. They like the fact that there’s never a dull moment in the workday, and the pace is a quick one. “We do some very unique jobs,” said Beyel. “There are so many different types of jobs that we handle.” He said every day is a new challenge and a new experience in this business. Pedersen views his work much the same way. “I feel like I run into new challenges every single day, doing something I have not done before, and going places I have not been before,” he said. His ultimate goal is safety. “I want to make sure that what they spec out is correct,” said Pedersen. “I want to make sure everything happens safely on anything we do.” And he summed up his work this way: “Crane rental can be chaotic.”  CQ

ANGLING FOR SUCCESS Anglemyer Completes Two-Crane Lift in Orange County, Calif. Anglemyer Crane Rental of Azusa, Calif., operated its 110-ton Link-Belt HTC-86110 hydraulic truck crane and 275-ton LinkBelt ATC-3275 all-terrain crane to perform a tandem lift of a 155 ft. (47.2 m) long, 60,000 lb. (27 215 kg) refurbished water bridge used to circulate water in a sediment pond for the industrial production of sand. “It was a little bit of a unique setup,” said crane operator Mike Norris, who ran the HTC-86110. “A temporary ramp was built for us to get the HTC-86110 down into the pond. Then we were set up along with the ATC-3275 so we could pick the bridge and set it into place.” Reach for both cranes was important for positioning the bridge. “The ATC-3275 had to pick about 15 ft. further than the HTC86110, so we had it on higher ground on the bank,” said Norris.

The HTC-86110 was equipped with full counterweight – 48,600 lbs. (22 044 kg) – to handle its end of the 60,000 lb. (27 215 kg) bridge. “On our end, we had close to 36,000 lbs. and lifted and placed on the center rotating joint,” said Norris. “Any time we do a two-crane pick, we have two crews we will put on the job.” “The HTC-86110 is new to us and as soon as it got to our yard, it went straight to work. We’ve put a little over 700 hours on it and 9,200 miles on it since we received it in April (2020). The HTC-86110 keeps a tight footprint – a little bigger than our 40-tons – and more maneuverable than anything in the 200-ton class that we have,” concluded Norris.

Neeb’s new Grove GMK6300L-1, GMK4100L-1 and GMK3060L during the handover in Wilhelmshaven.

Three’s a Charm Trio of Grove All-Terrain Cranes Delivered to German Company

The employees of German company Neeb received three new Grove all-terrain cranes during a handover at the Manitowoc factory in Wilhelmshaven in November 2020. The family business from Wuppertal chose a GMK3060L, GMK4100L-1 and GMK6300L-1 to expand its company fleet. “We took delivery of a GMK5150L almost a year ago and have been very happy with this strong and reliable crane. This was one of the reasons we decided to purchase Grove all-terrains again,” said the owner of the Grove trio, Armin Neeb. “The strong lifting performance and excellent off-road capabilities of the Grove cranes will enable us to meet our customers’ needs even better in the future.” In the GMK3060L, Neeb has received a compact three-axle machine. With a 157.5 ft. (48 m) main boom length and only 8.3 ft. (2.55) m width, the taxi crane is a bench-

mark for compactness and performance in its class. Similarly, with its heavy-duty jib and exceptionally large amount of storage space, the GMK3060L is an asset in day-today operations, according to the manufacturer. When the boom is fully extended, it can lift 7.2 tons (6.6 t). And at 28.4 ft. (8.67 m), the carrier is almost as compact as that of a two-axle crane. “The GMK3060L currently offers the best crane concept in the 60 t class. The long boom, which has a very low boom overhang, combined with the compact design and strong load charts is unique,” Neeb said.

Flexibility, Profitability The GMK4100L-1 is the second new Grove all-terrain crane in the company’s fleet. With its 110 ton (100 t) load capacity

and 196.7 ft. (60 m) main boom, the fouraxle machine has impressive performance characteristics. The crane accommodates up to 7.4 ton (6.7 t) of counterweight in taxi configuration and offers the best load charts in its class, according to the manufacturer. The remaining counterweight, including supporting pads and accessories, can be transported on just one standard semi-trailer. From Wilhelmshaven, the GMK4100L-1 went straight to a construction site in Wuppertal, where the crane, equipped with 29 ton (26.2 t) of counterweight, got to work on a very confined job site underneath a highway bridge. Due to the userfriendly Manitowoc CCS (crane control system), this demanding first job was very simple. Manitowoc Crane Care employees also were on hand to answer any questions the crane operator had.


“The GMK4100L-1 has an impressive long, strong boom that can be used for a wide variety of tasks, and as such is the most compact taxi crane. The crane can even travel within widths of 2.55 m with 19.9 t of counterweight, which is extremely important when completing jobs in industrial plants,” Neeb said. The GMK6300L-1 completes the trio of new Grove all-terrain cranes for Neeb. With an 262 ft. (80 m) main boom and an optional boom extension of up to 121 ft. (37 m), the six-axle crane can reach a maximum height of 393 ft. (120 m) while still lifting 2.3 ton (2.1 t). The GMK6300L-1 also boasts a load capacity of 330 ton (300 t) and can lift up to 15.4 ton (14 t) within a working radius of 46 to 92 ft. (14 to 28 m) at full boom length. Crane rental companies often face challenges when moving cranes. Bridges increasingly have load restrictions in Germany, for example, so the total weight of the mobile crane plays a decisive role when planning the journey to the site. The GMK6300L-1 from Neeb has a boom removal kit in order to drive more flexibly without the boom and with less overall weight. Disassembly and assembly of the boom is quick and easy to perform, and without the main boom the crane can

travel on the road with a total gross vehicle weight of less than 56 tons (51 t). After the handover in Wilhelmshaven, the GMK6300L-1 headed to a lime works, where Neeb operator Ingo Klees used it to dismantle a tower crane. On the way there, the crane made a short stop at a wind firm to dismantle a crawler crane. “The right people on the right machines — this makes every job at Neeb run like clockwork,” Klees said. At the handover of the three cranes in Wilhelmshaven, Jonathan Reckers, area sales manager at Manitowoc dealer KranAgentur Werner, thanked the Neeb team for their cooperation.

“I wish the team much enjoyment with their three new Grove all-terrain cranes and believe they will prove to be an indispensable part of the company fleet,” he said. German company Neeb was founded in 1961 by Gustav Adolf Neeb and operates throughout Europe, specializing in transport, logistics, structural survey projects, and towing and recovery services. From its headquarters in Wuppertal, Germany, and with the support of partners in Spain, Romania and Canada, the company can meet the international requirements of its customers.

In addition to the 262.5-ft. main boom, the 350 ton capacity crane features a 393.4-ft. tip height.

SAVING TIME, MONEY

Greiner intends to use the AC 300-6 in three major market sectors: the bridge market for setting bridge beams, the mechanical market for setting large HVAC units and the telecommunications industry for working on 180 to 220 ft. cell towers with just the main boom.

reiner Industries Inc. recently took G delivery of its new Demag AC 300-6 from Empire Crane Company. Greiner wanted to add a 350-ton unit to its fleet because of the long main booms this class is equipped with. “The Demag had the best main boom charts and we thought it would be the best option,” said Dan Haulman, Greiner crane division manager. Haulman started at Greiner Industries in 2008 as a crane operator and now oversees all operations in the crane division. “Another benefit we found with the Demag is that the mobilization costs are lower due to the counterweight breakdown.” Greiner intends to use the crane primarily with just the 262.5 ft. main boom. It doesn’t need to install a jib to get that extra reach, which saves a lot of time during setup. It also saves on costs because it doesn’t need an assist crane to build a jib. In addition to the 262.5 ft. main boom, the 350 ton capacity crane features a 393.4 ft. tip height. It was purchased with the fol18

DEMAG AC 300-6 PROVES EFFICIENT FOR GREINER INDUSTRIES

lowing optional equipment: • 206 ft. luffing jib • Heavy lift attachment • Central lubrication • 12 x 8 x 12 axles • Axle load display • Hill start aid • IC-1 Plus Greiner intends to use the AC 300-6 in three major market sectors: the bridge market for setting bridge beams, the mechanical market for setting large HVAC units and the telecommunications industry for working on 180 to 220 ft. cell towers with just the main boom. Paul Lonergan, owner and president of Empire Crane, said “Empire Crane has been working with Greiner for many years now. They’re a great team of hardworking and detail oriented individuals. With their experience with the AC 500-8, we know they’re going to love running the AC 3006.” Two years ago, Greiner purchased a new 2019 Demag AC500-8 from Empire Crane. It uses the Superlift often and has

done a number of jobs with the luffing jib. “The increase in capacity is so drastic when you put the Superlift on,” Haulman said. “The structural integrity that it adds to the boom increases the chart dramatically and has benefitted us in a number of projects.” For example: At 88 ft. radius with 183 ft. of main boom the capacities on the AC 500-8 are as follows — with just main boom: 73,100 lbs.; with Superlift: 119,500 lbs. At 160 ft. radius with 183 ft. of main boom the capacities on the AC 500-8 are as follows —with just main boom: 38,600 lbs.; with Superlift: 50,400 lbs. Greiner now has a total of 13 cranes in its fleet, ranging from 40 to 600 tons. “We’re happy to have another Demag in the fleet. They’re excellent running machines and we look forward to using this crane. Hopefully it’ll be just as busy as the AC500-8,” Haulman said.

The Liebherr 1500 and 1450 were specified for the work due to the weight of the load, the required radius dictated by the site, as well as the height of the work area.

ENORMOUS PAIR OF CRANES UNITE FOR CONVEYOR LIFT AT FARM CO-OP

Everything about farming is getting BIGGER. That’s the assessment of Kevin Berger, grain operations manager of Centerra CoOp, an agricultural services company with 13 locations in northern Ohio and Pennsylvania. With bigger equipment, harvests are bigger, and Berger’s company needs more and bigger storage. With all this “bigness,” it stands to reason that two enormous cranes would need to join forces for Centerra’s latest expansion project. Centerra is growing its Mansfield, Ohio, branch, adding a whopping 1 million bushels of storage capacity — an increase of roughly 25 percent at this location. Part of the work includes installing a new conveyor to connect two silos. It’s a big task considering the conveyor is 197 ft. long, weighs 80,000 lbs., and was to be installed atop silos that are 114 ft. high. A heavyweight job calls for two heavyweight cranes, and ALL Erection & Crane Rental, a member of the ALL Family of Companies, came up with two titans: the 550-ton Liebherr LTM 1450-8.1 and the 600-

ton Liebherr LTM 1500-8.1. Berger was on site for the conveyor pick and was impressed by the sheer size of the machines. “Having one crane that size was impressive, but to have two of them side-by-side was almost unbelievable,” said Berger. The Mansfield branch is no stranger to crane work, but, until now, the largest crane on the property had been an 80-ton crawler. The 1500 and 1450 were specified for the work due to the weight of the load, the required radius dictated by the site, as well as the height of the work area. “We needed two cranes that could extend to 130 feet in the air to give us the necessary hook height,” said Bernie Paridon, sales and rental representative of ALL. “We knew it would take two machines that each had capacity in excess of 500 tons.” The 1500 was configured with 189 ft. of main boom at 60 degrees, with 231,500 lbs. of counterweight and a 95.5 ft. lift radius. The 1450 had 208 ft. of main boom, 163,100 lbs. of counterweight, and a 75-ft. radius. Both machines had to fit in close

quarters, oriented near the two grain bins where the conveyor would eventually come to rest. The conveyor was assembled on the ground and each crane hooked one end. Due to a significant slope of the ground, snatch blocks were employed in the rigging to keep the load level as it was hoisted. It took approximately 45 minutes to lift and swing the conveyor into position, with operators then holding it in place for several hours while it was bolted and welded into place. Berger praised the professionalism and steady hands of ALL’s operators. “It was probably just another day at the office for them, but their skill was impressive,” said Berger. The conveyor was among the final pieces of a project six months in the making to add a new storage bin and conveyor to the facility. Expanding the site’s storage capacity to 5.2 million bushels will allow Centerra to take greater advantage of the growing harvest season for corn, soybeans and wheat.

BIG INTEREST...BIG CRANE Demag already had an 88 ton (80-t) crane at one point: The AC 80-2.

“The worldwide success that this model had showed that there’s significant interest in a crane with this kind of lifting capacity,” said Michael Klein, the product marketing manager in charge. “In fact, a large number of customers kept confirming this time and time again. That’s why we decided to add the AC 80-4 to our product portfolio in the segment of up to 100 tonnes.” The new Demag crane really aims high when it comes to power and performance, and in many areas even outdoes representatives from the 100 ton (90-t) class, Klein said. The Demag AC 80-4 features a main boom that is 196.9 ft. (60 m) long and that, with some configurations, makes it possible to have the longest main boom reach in the class of up to 132 tons (120 t). And there is more: In the class of up to 110 ton, no other crane comes close to its lifting capacity with a fully extended boom up to a radius of 98.4 ft. (30 m): The AC 80-4 can lift 6 tons (5.4 t) at a radius of 45.9 ft. (14 m). It also raises the bar with its main boom extended to 164.0 ft. (50 m): At a radius of 32.8 ft. (10 m), it can lift 10.7 tons (9.7 t), which is 2.4 tons (2.2 t) more than the next most powerful competitor, according to the manufacturer. In terms of line pull, the Demag AC 80-4 also is ahead of the pack with 66.9 kN, or 7.5 tons (6.8 t). If the main boom length of 196.9 ft. (60 m) is not enough, the reach can be expanded with a 21.3 ft. (6.5-m) main boom extension that can be offset by 25 and 50 degrees. Its capacity is 26.2 tons (23.8 t), meaning that it can be used to lift heavy loads over obstacles. Since the extension can be folded and carried on the main boom, it can be ready for use particularly quickly. In addition, there is a 4.9 ft. (1.50-m) runner with a capacity of 29.3 tons (26.6 t) available for the Demag AC 80-4. The AC 80-4 also is recommended for indoor projects. The main boom can be lowered up to 3 degrees below its horizontal position so that potential work at height can be easily eliminated and the jibs can be installed quickly and safely.

so that the crane can be ready for operation more quickly,” said Klein. Demag Surround View also supports the driver on the way to the construction site. The cameras can deliver images of the crane side areas when turning, facilitating the crane driver to detect cyclists, pedestrians or any obstacles. This function is activated automatically when the indicator is operated. “We first showcased this feature on the AC 450-7,” Klein said. “Our customers’ response was so enthusiastic that we decided to also include it in the AC 80-4. And additional models will follow.” The AC 80-4 also comes with the Demag IC-1 Plus control system. During operation, IC-1 Plus calculates the crane’s lifting capacity for every boom position as a function of the superstructure’s slewing angle. This means that the maximum available lifting Able to Travel On the Road With a Counterweight of 10.3 Tons The AC 80-4 does not need to wait to get to a work site to show capacity can be used with any outrigger configuration, including off its qualities.

L

ift-All Crane Service’s distinctive baby blue cranes have been a common sight on the highways and job sites of eastern Nebraska and western Iowa ever since the company was founded in 1977. This long-time Grove customer has recently acquired another two truck cranes from nearby dealer Aspen Equipment to fill a couple of gaps in its fleet: namely, a TMS9000-2 at the end of 2018 and a TMS500-2 in the spring of 2020. Lift-All’s Owner Joe Hylok is particularly pleased with how well the new 100 t model has fitted in: “We had 80 t and 120 t cranes so there was always this ambiguous middle ground, but the TMS9000-2 has filled that void. It worked out fantastic; it really hit the ground running.” One key reason for this instant success lies in the crane’s superb driving experience: “Typically, every time you get in a bigger crane, the further you get away from base, the more of a hindrance it becomes,” Hylok continued. “Half of the battle is just getting the crane to the job site. But with this crane, the cab is comfortable, and it roads almost as nice as a tractor-trailer, so it’s easy on the operator. It’s efficient and it’s fast.”

Grove TMS528B acquired in 1987. Although no longer a daily runner, this is still used as a “filler” when necessary. In more frequent service is the company’s first boom truck, a 1991 National Crane 566B, along with two other long-serving Grove truck cranes, a 1999 TMS640 and 2000 TMS540. Lift-All Crane Service now boasts 15 cranes ranging from 12 t to 120 t, and employs 10 NCCCO-certified operators, each with at least a decade of experience. It has certainly come a long way since Joe Hylok’s father, Joe Senior, and mother Yvonne started the company with one crane in the late 1970s, painting it the color of the sky he remembered from growing up on a dairy farm near Green Bay, Wis. — all while continuing to dabble in the sign-installation business.

Wiggle Room This enhanced drivability is largely due to the TMS9000-2’s compact dimensions, lively maneuvering and light roading weight afforded by the removable counterweight feature. This enables up to 48,500 lbs. to be hydraulically withdrawn from around the superstructure cab, greatly simplifying transport. With Lift-All working across many different sectors, including roofing, cell towers, trusses, steel erection and HVAC, this greater flexibility, along with the easy setup, frequently comes in very useful. “One of the great things about the crane is that it has the ability to wear a lot of hats. If we have a heavier pick, we can add extra counterweight later, meaning that’s an extra 12,000 lbs. the crane doesn’t have to carry on the road,” Hylok explained. “We can just take the crane along with one small support truck for the extra counterweight; it’s the perfect little package. “We also work in a lot of residential neighborhoods where you have to tread lightly, with roundabouts, narrow streets, etc. The machine is set up to be light and nimble enough to access these areas and perform picks without any issues. Previously, we would always put a jib on our 80 t crane when setting pools in swim spas, but even without a jib on the TMS9000-2, we can set a pool at 150 ft. It’s just incredible to be able to go that far without putting a jib on.” This feat is made possible by the TMS9000-2’s MEGAFORM six-section boom shape that increases capacity over conventional designs. Extending from 36 to 169 ft., it makes optimum use of the Twin-Lock pinning system that not only eliminates weight from inside the extended boom but automatically locks the sections together. There is, of course, optional luffing extensions for picks that require improved up-and-over reach.

Joining Old-Timers Still working without issues, the two new machines follow in the distinguished tire-tracks of Lift-All’s first-ever truck crane, a

“One of the great things about the crane is that it has the ability to wear a lot of hats. If we have a heavier pick, we can add extra counterweight later, meaning that’s an extra 12,000 lbs. the crane doesn’t have to carry on the road,” Lift-All Owner Joe Hylok explained.

“Eventually we morphed and went strictly crane rental only,” Hylok said. “Dad’s philosophy was ‘you have to focus on one thing and do one thing well only’, which we tend to hear from businesspeople everywhere. Over the decades, Grove truck cranes have really helped us make that an easy mantra to live up to.” For more information, visit www.manitowoc.com. 

Petrillo Inc.’s yard in Yonkers, N.Y. Dragline service was not a common application for locomotive cranes. This Brownhoist No. 4 wields a 1yd. Schnable bucket. This bucket consisted of a pivoting shell inside a fixed frame, and it dumped out its back end by releasing the tension of the drag line, causing the back of the shell to drop away from the back gate of the frame while pivoting at the front of the frame. After dumping, the shell returned to its horizontal digging position, with the back gate blocking the open back end of the shell.
