PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
PREFACE
Pedestal cranes are a familiar sight on offshore rigs - in the North Sea, the Gulf of
Mexico, off the coast of Alaska, and around the world. This machinery enables
persons and equipment to reach the offshore platforms and jack-up rigs so that
exploration and production oil can continue. Lifting and hoisting are the main functions
of the crane and it requires the utmost care and attention to preserve the safety of the
rig and its crew.
This operation and maintenance manual is prepared to assist you in taking care of,
and to explain the correct and most efficient operating practices and preventive
maintenance that is required with this crane.
Read this manual and make sure you understand it before operating the BMC 2250E
Cranes or making adjustments to the BMC 2250E Cranes. Know the serial number of
your crane that is stamped on a plate located on the side of the operator's cabin. If
there are any questions concerning this crane, this number must be furnished along
with verbal and written request for information.
All manuals are periodically reprinted and up-dated. If a new manual is ordered, the
latest, most up-to-date manual will be provided. This manual will differ from the one
originally shipped with your crane. Information is never removed from a manual when
revised and new additional information will probably be added.

GENERAL INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
The BMC 2250E Cranes are designed, constructed and certified in compliance with the
following regulations.
Rated Load : Main Hoist – 50.77 Metric Ton at 7.50 meters radius
13.83 Metric Ton at 38.90 meters radius
Aux.Hoist – 10.00 Metric Ton at all radii
GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS
ROTATING SYSTEM:
The rotating structure is mounted on an upper thrust bearing and an upper and lower
radial bearing. Since the basic overturning moments created by the crane load are
induced into rigid, non-rotating tubular column with no moving parts instead of a large
ball or roller swing bearing, the possibility of crane damage or operator injury due to
swing bearing failure is virtually eliminated.
The rotating structure consists of a vertical tubular member, a mounting platform, and a
tubular truss type gantry.
A hydraulic reservoir is above deck to get positive head for pump and of size 1800 liters
approximately, which forms part of the mounting platform. Walkways and handrails
access gates and toe guards are provided. Hydraulic components and plumbing are all
above deck and are within a drip pan to prevent overboard spills. All hydraulic
components are easily accessible.
PRIME MOVERS:
Diesel Engine
650 HP capacity Diesel Engine, direct-coupled to two variable displacement axial piston
pumps and two fixed gear displacement pumps are connected to the Radiator & oil
Cooler.Fuel oil tank capacity is 1950 liters approximately.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM:
The hydraulic system is of open loop design and is simple and easy to maintain.
Cleanliness of the system is maintained by High suction line filter,return line filters. Main
hoist, Aux hoist and boom luffing use common variable displacement axial piston
pumps. The Swing and cooler fixed displacement use Gear pump. Main, Aux, boom
luffing and swing each use a hydraulic piloted proportional directional control valve to
supply hydraulic flow to the radial piston hub drive type main, aux & boom hoist motor
and gear type swing motor respectively. All valves are located in the motor canopy for
protection and easy accessibility.
