TIDD Pick & Carry Crane

Slew Safe™ Technology

The newest safety innovation for the TIDD Crane which turns the corner on pick and carry crane operator safety.

Slew Safe has been specifically designed to help save lives. Standard on all new TIDD PC28-3G and TIDDPC28-2 cranes and can be retrofitted onto all existing TIDD Cranes.  The TIDD crane is the only pick and carry crane with this level of safety. 

Slew Safe delivers peace of mind for drivers, dogman, crane owners and site owners, with improved safety, risk management and duty of care, supporting safer outcomes across main industry sectors.

Slew Safe™ has been specifically designed to prevent rollovers and works with a number of features including audible alarms, LMI warnings and power steering is restricted to 15% to prevent further slewing. It simply and effectively allows the TIDD Crane operator to pick and carry a load knowing that they will be warned and restricted if they get into a situation that triggers an overload notification.

Australian Innovation Patent number: 741038


How Slew Safe™ Works

When the crane is operated in the GREEN and AMBER areas of the lifting chart, Slew Safe™ will remain inactive.

When the crane in operation moves from green and amber to RED, this is an overload notification based on the lifting chart.  This will activate Slew Safe™.


Activation of Slew Safe™ 

Once Slew Safe is activated it will do the following:

  • Show a visible warning on the ECU
  • Reduce the speed of the power steering to 15% in the unsafe direction
  • Makes steering harder with instant feedback through the steering wheel to operator
  • The engine will “load up” making an audible sound change for operator
  • Constant audible alarm both inside and outside the cabin to warn the operator and dogman of overload
  • Retains the ability to move back to the safe direction for normal operation in green.
