Coles crane info wanted


Cel

Recommended Posts

This is our Coles with AEC engine. Lift capacity is about 16 tons, and it is a very handy thing! I think it is an ex-army crane but cannot find any documents (manual, parts list etc.). So if anyone can help me out I'd be most grateful.

 

All the best

Hi Marcel,

 

It looks like a Coles Hydra Husky, engine would be a AEC AV505 with Clark transmission. It would be Model 150T if an army version and max lift mobile was 7 tons and blocked would be 15 tons.

The army workshop manual is EMER Eng & Misc U153/12 if that helps.

Thanks a lot Richard! I have never been able to find out this information before. It is such a handy thing, and although we only use it a couple of times a year I could not miss it.

Hi Marcel,

 

Glad to help. All I have is a 20 page booklet of course notes, from when I went on a training course for repairing this model crane with the Army in 1980. It is a photocopy, not terribly clear, but I could scan it for you, as it has a few hydraulic circuit diagrams.

hi there i'm brand new to this forum, came across this post as i was researching some info on a mobile crane i have just bought that looks very similar to the one you have in your photographs. i believe mine is a Coles Hydra Husky 150 TCC AT but i bought it (as a project) as spares or repair and have no paperwork what so ever

 

i was just wondering if you had been able to get any information for your crane? my initial problem is that i can't find any kind of identification numbers and have no idea as to where they might be located on the machine? is there any chance you can help?
