R.F.Q.
The 5000 series is a fully automatic microprocessor controlled system and operational aid that clearly displays the information and warnings needed for the driver to operate the crane within the parameters of the duty chart. For a fully featured indicator with a range of expansion options the Loadwise 5000 is the ideal choice. It has a memory capacity twice as that of a traditional 500 series with increased functionality and integrated optional features to make on-site upgrades as easy as possible.
