  • This section explains how to specify the size, number and voltage of lockout valves for your crane. These valves will most likely NOT be needed if your truck already has a factory installed anti-two-block system. The L25 will drive those valves. Please check with us to see if a relay kit might be needed.
  • These 3000 psi valves are used to shut off crane functions on hydraulic cranes during a two-block (or overload) condition. Used on winch up, telescope out, boom down. They automatically allow corrective action: winch down, telescope in, boom up.
