• Need some advice on how to string a tow crane. *PIC*
  • Which cables are we talking about? The support cables appear to be fixed at the front. Are the twin booms supposed to be movable? *NM*
  • Although this wrecker is much bigger, here is how it is rigged.
    • Thanks Charlie it does help. There's only one winch so I'm assuming the boom doesn't move. Which means the other cables are there to provide support to the boom. *NM*
      • Ken: Just pulled up a video on light duty twin boom Holmes wrecker. It looks like there is one winch but there appear to be separate spools; one for the lifting cable and two smaller outside ones for the booms adjustment. Must be a way of disengaging each one.
