Big Stick wrecker operation ???

[cdnmodman]

I was wondering if someone could give me some technical details on how these big brutes operated as never saw one up here in Canada. Most of the older big stuff that

I remember was either Holmes 750s or 850s for the big stuff or something of a one off

manufactured unit.Looking at pics and the Pete kit did the upper reel at the top control the rise and lower of the boom ?? And also how was the telscopic inner boom

controlled.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Rick

Back in the day, the Holmes 750 and 850 were considered big.
