How do the counter weights go on?

These cranes have the ability to haul all their counterweight where my red blob is. Simply spin boom around and activate the two hydraulic pistons. The come down through the counterweights, spin, and pick up the weights. The 3055 is the most versatile crane for tree work made.......IMO!

Any idea what one of these Grove 3055's goes for new?
Except for the travel speed they seem like an excellent crane for the work.

Travel speed is fine, 55MPH.

I would GUESS 800K+ brand new?

Thamks Jim, your red blob took the sexy right out of the sixty!

Yeah the travel speed is 85 km/h, around here on 80 km/h roads most guys will drive 100 km/h and besides that, especially now our jobs are far apart so the speed can be a factor when there is a lot of highway driving and wages to be paid during travel.
