Tadano GR-1600XL-2 Rough Terrain Crane Service Manual

A rough terrain crane like the GR-1600XL-2 works on uneven job sites, setting up on outriggers and lifting with a telescopic boom. When one of these comes into the shop with a hydraulic fault or a worn component, the person with the wrench needs workshop procedures, not guesswork. That's usually a rental fleet mechanic, an independent repair shop or a dealer technician working on a machine that's out of warranty or arrived without paperwork.

What this manual helps you do

• Trace the hydraulic system from the pump through the control valves to the cylinders.
• Rebuild a cylinder, such as the counterweight, cab tilt or jib offset cylinder, using the disassembly steps.
• Check wear limits on worn parts against the maintenance standards.
• Diagnose flow control, sequence and check valve problems with the valve descriptions and operation sections.
• Replace or test the pressure sensor and verify how the positive control pump behaves.

Who this is for

A crane service technician or rental fleet mechanic who repairs these cranes in-house will get the most from it. It also suits an independent repair shop or plant maintenance crew that needs procedures for removal, disassembly and adjustment before opening up a component.

Q: How does it fit the job I'm doing?

A: If you're pulling a hydraulic component, you'd expect description and operation first, then disassembly, then maintenance standards for the parts that wear. That's the order most repairs follow on the bench.

Open it before you start the teardown, and you'll have the procedures in front of you while the crane is still on the shop floor.
