    The stick would be almost on the ground before the knuckle hit the deck in my case.

    How long is the reach on that one? It looks about 4-5’ longer than most. Maybe it’s just your shorter well playing tricks on me.

    I think it is 60' from the center. This is a Cat boom, but we have rented others that had a Pierce boom and they are configured a little different in that they don't extend out as far because of either the length of the stick cylinder or it's position, so there is a difference between manufacturers.

    ETA - I suppose the length of the transport bar has a lot to do with it too.
     
    CAXPT and ElmerFudpucker Thank this.
