Investigation Summary
A n American crawler crane, #9310, with 180 feet of tower boom and 169 feet of working tip, collapsed when the lower bale failed to take up boom cable. The jib, having operated in the working position, was being lowered so that the lower bales could be inspected. Cable slack was displaced and the jib fell, striking the tower boom. The tower and the jib then fell backward, striking another crawler crane. There were no employee injuries.
