I've got a different scan -- much more detail and easier to see.
I put it on my web page (primitive, more a place to transfer stuff than
a real web page).
Check out http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Hills/6799
(I must apologize in advance for the GeoCities junk that pops up).
Just scroll down past the pictures of my cat and you'll find it at the bottom.
From the picture, there don't appear to be any pneumatics. It looks like the
crane claw is operated from an axle down the center of the crane arm. Probably
through a U-joint at the claw head. The dual front wheel steering looks
interesting, and I think I see a large turntable above the rear wheels.

| (...) Interesting. I would guess that the crane can be rotated (through the use of a large Technic turntable) and tilted. It looks like you need to flip the device holding the large suspender to close the grabber. This isn't too nice, IMO. (...) (...) (26 years ago, 30-Dec-98, to lugnet.build)

| (...) Oh, and one more comment on the image of the 8446: Notice the grey gear below the right hand side of the green 12-beam to the rear of the vehicle? The one just inside of the Slizer "ski"? This looks remotely like a differential, but not (...) (26 years ago, 31-Dec-98, to lugnet.build)
