Crash_AF is on a distinguished road

I have used the air governor on my 816 once in all the time I've had it. (my controls on the back are frozen up). It didn't make a significant difference in how the crane worked, so I just continue to use it at idle.

For the crane, use 4 or 3, the rear winch is like the front, use whatever gear works best for you. Oshkosh equipment has the kit for the wreckers, but it is expensive. You can occasionally come across the spades and wiffle tree at surplus locations or from other members. The harder part of the whiffle tree is the pins.

Later,
Joe
