A major highlight of the GF-16 is the adjustable mounting column. It allows assembly of the arm at a low, comfortable pivot height of 158 cm / 5’2”. When assembled the complete loaded arm can be elevated 40 cm / 18” per hand crank or motor driven with a battery operated screwdriver. This feature not only improves safety and handling as it reduces the need for using ladders etc during assembly and breakdown, it also gives the operator more options to adapt the crane to the location or set.

All GF-16 components are designed to allow a comfortable carry and practical transportation. The complete arm fits on 2 dedicated trollies. With the adjustable column, the pivot section can be lowered to fit in most trucks. Custom designed trollies and weight carriers are available.
