Overheard a foreman say he'd rather run a 30 ton rough terrain blind than trust a load chart from a 90s manual
Changed my whole outlook on how I check my gear after that old timer showed me three load charts from the same model year that didn't even match each other, anyone else run into manuals that are way off?

Read somewhere that some old crane manuals had typos in the load radius numbers, which is pretty wild to think about.

Yeah because nothing says "trust the specs" like a misprint on what could drop a building on you.
