Ha! 50 ton Grove on a tight site in Charlotte. That's like bringing a minivan to a parallel parking contest, I guess it works but you're gonna be sweating every inch of it. I've seen guys try to squeeze those things into spots that barely fit a mini ex, and it's always a show. Hope you got the operator who actually knows how to crab steer and not just the guy who bought the crane last week. Good luck not taking out any curbs or landscaping.

Wait the guy who bought the crane last week is actually running it?

Guess I'm in the minority but I've seen guys flip a machine and still get the job done. Being green on the controls doesn't automatically mean you'll tear up the whole site.
