Betox-Krane

This Betox 100 is not in use, but a very heavy storm was swaying the hook.

Ich weiß, das Foto ist sehr schlecht. Habs von nem Poster abfotografiert....aber sonst gibts keins von dem Kran. Werde veresuchen es nochmal zu scannen. vielleicht ist es dann wenigstens etwas besser.

Sorry, the quality is bad, but it``s the only picture I found of this Betox-Type. I made a photograpg from a poster. I will try to scan it, perhaps it will have better quality....

It`s defintely not the Betox 100 design of the Models that are shown in this topic. The jib is single mounted, and it has the cabin outside....an the slewing is like the one at "normal" cranes... bearbeitet 6. März 2007 von TDK1980

Hello, interesting picture! Definitely this is not a Betox 110! It looks like it was a Betox 100.
I think there was a crane model in the 70s which was a bit similar to Betox 100, but I cannot remember the manufacturer or type.

- Here a datasheet of Betox 100 in Finnish, from Mr Gronroos´s archives

Hello

nice pictures! More please.

One question according to the lifting of the counterweights and towersections:
Is there an additional winch for both of them? I suppose so because the hook is on the right side in the airvisible ?!
I have one problem with understanding: It was said that during the climbing process the hoist rope was removed because it would hinder the (dis)assembly of the towersections. Where was it routed then?

Many thanks, Harry
