The configurations are based on the NBT40-2 with an 85% stability factor. The complete unit must be installed in
accordance with factory requirements and a test performed to determine actual stability and counterweight requirements
since individual truck chassis vary.
This configuration shows the 360° working area that is achieved with the front stabilizer (standard on NBT40-2). Extended
front frame rails required for SFO installation unless application without extended rails has been approved by National
Crane.
Note: Estimated axle scale weights prior to installation of crane assembly for 85% stability.
Other configurations are available, please consult the factory for more information.
Please refer to page 13 of this product guide for important notes regarding the recommended truck specifications.

Many factors must be considered in the selection of proper truck for an NBT40-2 crane. Items which must be
considered are:
1. Axle Rating. Axle ratings are determined by the axles, tires, rims, springs, brakes, steering and frame strength
of the truck. If any one of these components is below the required rating, the gross axle rating is reduced to its
weakest component value.
2. Wheelbase (WB), Cab-to-Trunnion (CT) and Bare Chassis Weight. The wheelbase, CT and chassis weights
shown are required so the basic NBT40-1 can be legally driven in most states and meet stability requirements.
The dimensions given assume the sub-base is installed properly behind the truck cab. If exhaust stacks,
transmission protrusions, etc., do not allow a close installation to the cab, the WB and CT dimensions must be
increased. Refer to the Mounting Configuration pages for additional information.
3. Truck Frame. Try to select a truck frame that will minimize or eliminate frame reinforcement or extension of
the after frame (AF). Many frames are available that have the necessary after frame (AF) section modulus (SM)
and resistance to bending moment (RBM) so that reinforcing is not required. The front hydraulic jack is used
for a 360˚ working range around the truck. The frame under the cab through the front suspension must have
the minimum S.M. and RBM because reinforcing through the front suspension is often difficult because of
engine, radiator mounts and steering mechanics. See “Truck Requirements” and “Frame Strength” pages for the
necessary section modulus and resistance to bending moment values. Integral extended front frame rails are
required for front center stabilizer installation.
4. Additional Equipment. In addition to the axle ratings, wheelbase, cab-to-axle requirements and frame, it is
recommended that the truck is equipped with electronic engine control, increased cooling and a transmission
with a PTO opening available with an extra heavy duty PTO. A conventional cab truck should be used for
standard crane mounts.
5. Neutral Start Switch. The chassis must be equipped with a switch that prevents operation of the engine
starter when the transmission is in gear.
Notes:
• Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) is dependent • All mounting data is based on a NBT40-2 Series with
on all components of the vehicle (axles, tires, springs, an 85% stability factor
frame, etc.) meeting manufacturers’ recommenda-
tions; always specify GVWR when purchasing trucks • The complete unit must be installed in accordance
with factory requirements, and a test performed
• Diesel engines require a variable speed governor for to determine actual stability and counterweight
smooth crane operation; electronic fuel injection requirements per SAE J765; contact the factory for
requires EET engine remote throttle details
