[z8001]

Hi, just wondering to know, how to mount lighter forestry crane on my zetor 8011 as can be seen on:

http://www.pottupellossa.com/galleria/displayimage.php?album=2&pos=4611

That forum is full of pictures of Valtras, MFs with this equipment, but this is the only zetor I found. I would have one crane without supported legs, will this tractor be stable?? Any suggestion how to mount it on?? Will be some aditional frame under tractor needed??
thanx for any response.

Hi Hogi, thank you for your advice, really appreciate that!! It seems, that this kind of mounted crane is very popular within Finland, Sweden and so on. Have you ever personaly seen forestry crane on zetors series 8xxx or 10xxx?? I am thinking of mounting Farma 6,5 meter crane (cca 800 kg) without supported legs on my crystal (with additional frame). Do you think, that this could be realistic idea?? Will this tractor be enough heavy=stable for that?? Ones again thx for you response.

I have Hakki crane (6 meter boom, 960kg/3m) on Zetor 6245. With support feets it is has stability enouhgt. You can use it without support feets when using max 70% of max capacity.

With support feets you maybe must use support frame with adapter part (you usually cant use flange mounted type cranes with support feets) but this is faster when coupling and de coupling crane. Its limits are mainly that you cant use 3 point hitch and you perhaps need to remove lower arms.

Anyway 8045 has stability enought to work without support feet too. Least if you use some front ballast weight. Here in finland nobody dont want to use support feets at daily work, because it takes too much time to use them. You have taken some logs on trailer before feets are dont
