Smrgol Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Hi everyone, After helping to clear out a loft my girlfriends parents gave me this Technic tractor, but I can't find the set its from and they can't remember if it was made by them or using instructions haha It has 2 pneumatic pumps - the one on the side opens the rear gate at the same time as the one under it lifts the bed up so tips its contents backwards (there is a switch on the far side to change it close/lower again). The yellow cylinder on top is geared to the central pivot as a steering mechanism. I hope this is from a set so I can add it to my set numbers lol Quote
The Yellow Brick Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 It might be this one? 8845 Power Crane? Quote
bb15080 Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 this is from set 8854 powercrane http://www.brickset.com/detail/?set=8854-1 Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Yup, that is the b model from the Power Crane. This was my first Technic set, which I got on my 7th or 8th birthday. A great set! Edited December 31, 2011 by dhc6twinotter Quote
DLuders Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Here is an image of the 8852-2 model (from Brickfactory.info): Quote
Smrgol Posted January 1, 2012 Author Posted January 1, 2012 Cheers guys, for some reason I never thought to look for the B models of the older sets. I will now be able to see if there are any parts missing from the set, I know of at least 1 missing and 1 that is broken - one of the smooth discs from the front (light?) and one of the cross bars for the front axle is broken (someone has forced it to stay together with a tiny bit of string...)
