VENTURO ANNOUNCES UPGRADES TO HYDRAULIC CRANE SERIES

Venco/Venturo Mfg. Div. of Collins Associates, Inc. (Cincinnati, OH) announced that 20-ft. full hydraulic boom extensions are now standard on all HT40KX and HT50KX cranes with proportional controls. The alternative low-cost configuration with non-proportional controls and combination hydraulic/manual boom extensions will continue to be offered in the product line.

In an ongoing effort to reduce cost, increase quality and add features, Venturo has added extensive troubleshooting capabilities to its proportional radio remote systems while decreasing the cost by more than 50%. Even non-proportional receivers will include the troubleshooting error code display.

The proportional system will feature a backup CAN cord for direct hardwire control and transmitter battery recharging. In addition, an optional handheld computer will provide diagnostic checks as well as calibration of the crane’s operating functions.
