  • To The Top Crane | reeving the three sheave block with six parts of line so we can lift a 79,000 lb anhydrous ammonia tank. Six parts of line give this crane a total line pull of 100,500 lbs.

    Well that's pretty straight-forward. I guess I just thought it was a more complicated procedure. Thanks for showing this to us, Jimmy.

    Cool video! It doesn’t look to terribly hard to change but still some heavy lifting and pulling! Great job thanks for sharing!

      Elite Earthworks LLC, it's pretty easy to change. A quick reeve block helps a lot. I'll probably make another video of that process with more narration. We were in a hurry when I did this one. It also happens to be my shortest video. Lol. Thanks for watching!

    I would imagine the more sheaves you have to thread it becomes harder trying to keep all the twists out and being able to hold all together. Thanks for the video.

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  6 років тому

      Duncan MacKenzie, it's not too bad. We try to keep the twist out on each pass. Then we don't have to worry about it.

    Looks like eccentric reeving. All 6 parts are on the one side of the boom. Shouldn't it be evenly distributed at the boom tip?

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  6 років тому +1

      Ron's Practical Tutorial, if you watch it closely, they are evenly spaced. The sheaves used for six parts are 2,4,6. There are seven sheaves in the top block (end of the boom). Thanks for watching! 🙂👍

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  6 років тому +1

      Ron's Practical Tutorial, the complete process is....rope over the top right sheave (as viewed from the operators seat) down on the front side of sheave number 2 on the top block, around sheave 1 on the bottom block, up over sheave number 4 on the top block, around sheave number 2 on the bottom block, up over sheave number 6 on the top block, around number 3 on the bottom block, up to the lug on the boom on the far left side (as viewed from the operators seat).

    Nice videos! Whats that clicking sound when you use the winch? Is every click 1 inch or something like that? Thanks

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  6 років тому +1

      Patrick Seiber, the clicking is just an indicator telling me that the winch is turning. It does give some indication of how much line is moving in or out. Usually each click is between 1/4 and 1 inch. It's dependent on how many parts of line are reeved through the block. Thanks for watching! 🙂👍

  • @motercycles6
    @motercycles6 6 років тому +1

    is the metal tab with the hole in it thats hinged on top of the sheave block an attachment point to be able to lift it to put it on a truck or the boom dollie? also very cool to see how a crane is reeved i have only seen that one other time on a youtube video showing how a crawler crane was put together i think it was a crawler crane or might have been a hydraulic crane i cant remember which one though as i seen that a few years ago

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  6 років тому +1

      James Bergeron, that is so it can be picked up. Also, it can be used for single line that way. Next time we have the big block on, I'll get some footage of reeving it. Thanks for watching! 🙂

    • @motercycles6

    Thanks. No idea the end of the line was so small that not much has to come apart.

    • @ToTheTopCrane
      @ToTheTopCrane  6 років тому

      +Rambozo Clown, this crane has "buttons" on the end that lock into a piece that pins to the boom, block or ball. It is much faster than breaking down a beckett and reeving. The drawback to a button though, if the rope gets damaged, it is much more difficult and expensive to repair. Thanks for watching! 🙂👍
