Excellent tips Crane Op....I am sure they will work me into picks of this size. I don't expect to be making these picks fresh out of the gate. I plan on taking the Op manual home and read it thoroughly. I am the fastidious type and like to know everything about the machine well before I pull levers or road the machine.I can't even begin to imagine what the cost of this new GMK was; and I don't want to have a short career by breaking the machine or hurting anyone. I take this business VERY seriously. I think anyone who is in this trade may think the same way. I am also a private pilot and equate running a crane too doing a pre-flight on a plane. Inspecting the site (flight plan)for access and to making sure the equipment is in perfect working order before the load leaves the ground. I meet with the owner tomorrow...if things work out I will be able share my experiences with vets like yourself.
