1830 E- overhead crane

 

Mainly the same as the 1825 E. The layout has a coloured plastic loading ramp - the crane itself is blue. Novelty 1970.

However this version has a completely different drive referred to the other Giants. The trolley / traveller is moved by a coil spring (instead of a brass rod) - covered by a bottom-open silver (aluminium) square profile. An upward pointing pin fixed inside the trolley / traveller "grabs" into the spring and thus is moving the trolley / traveller while the spring is rotating. In order to achieve enough traction the wheel underneath the drive box is rubber-ring covered.

Delivered with either blank or cream coloured palette - hook known to be blank or black.

Seize: 525 x 405 x 190 mm
