ABSTRACT:
A crane mover is arranged to transfer a crane, such as a dockside crane, around a curve from one straight track to another straight track. The mover runs on rails and carries synchronized jacks engageable with lift pads on the crane. The mover also carries lips on the jack stems to engage and restrict excess rocking movement of the crane wheel equalizers. All of the mover actions and motion are preferably controlled from an operator station on the crane mover.
