The upper counterweight is a structural component that mounts to the rear of the crane's superstructure. Its primary function is to provide the necessary mass to balance the load being lifted and the weight of the extended boom, effectively counteracting the overturning moment generated during crane operation. Maintaining the correct counterweight configuration is necessary for the crane to operate within its specified load charts.
This specific 1.7-ton component is designed for the Demag AC80-1 all-terrain crane. It is identified by part number 587 704 40. The counterweight is positioned on the superstructure to ensure the machine maintains stability when handling heavy loads at various radii. By providing this ballast, the component allows the crane to reach its rated lifting capacity while maintaining safe operational parameters on the job site.
