National Crane N100 Articulating Crane Service Manual

A National Crane N100 is a knuckle-boom crane that sits on a truck or base and folds down for the road. On a job site it picks, swings and places loads where a straight boom can't reach. When it's out of warranty or came in with no paperwork, the person under it needs repair procedures, not guesses.

What this manual helps you do

• Troubleshoot hydraulic system problems on the N100, from weak lifting to slow or jerky movement.
• Rebuild or replace hydraulic components with the removal and disassembly steps a service manual like this usually gives.
• Adjust and verify settings in the controls and safety system after repairs.
• Trace electrical system faults on a crane that came in with no documentation.
• Follow maintenance and adjustment routines for the slewing system, boom and extensions, and stabilizers.

Who this is for

Independent repair shops, rental fleet mechanics and dealer technicians who work on the N100 and want a workshop reference at the bench or on the truck. It also suits plant maintenance staff who look after a crane in-house.
