Hi I have a lionel gantry crane with the clam bucket from 2002, I recently purchased it and it was new in the box and it looked it. I hooked it up today to my cw 80 and only the bucket would open. The hoist would not go up and down and it would not swing left or right. When i would operate the hoist and swing, only the motors would make noise but no movement. I wondered if there is something i am doing wrong or if there is anything i can do to fix this.Thanks for any help.
DENQTO,
Check and see if the lines are on the pulleys. Also make sure you have the transformer throtle all the way up. I am running my Gantry crane with the clam bucket on the CW80 and have no problems but put it at full throttle. Check and see if wires aren’t kinked. Hope this helps.
