Ihimer CCH2000 Technical Manual – Factory Specs for the 200-Ton Crawler Crane

I have been turning wrenches on heavy iron for 28 years. If you are maintaining an Ihimer CCH2000, you need the Ihimer CCH2000 Technical Manual on your bench – not some aftermarket knockoff that guesses on boom geometry or swing speeds. This is a 32-page factory document from IHI Construction Machinery Limited. It gives you the numbers that matter: lifting capacities, dimensions in millimeters, and the exact list of standard equipment. No fluff. No guesses. OEM data only.

Lifting Capacity and Configurations

Page 2 of the manual covers the three main lifting modes. You get 50-ton lifting with the Post, 25-ton with the Luffing Jib, and 13.5-ton with the Auxiliary Jib. Each configuration has restrictions – for example, simultaneous lifting by Post and Auxiliary Jib is not permitted. That kind of spec keeps your crew alive. The manual also explains how the Middle Equalizer for the Luffing Jib is stowed when the jib is dismantled. If you are rigging this crane, you need that detail in your hands, not a third-party rewrite.

General Dimensions and Specifications

Page 3 gives you the full dimension breakdown: overall length 18000 mm, shoe width, boom foot height, working radius, and ground clearance. The manual includes a diagram with key points like the center of rotation and the High A-frame in folded and middle positions. You also get the specs for swing speed, travel speed, gradability, engine type, and the hydraulic systems for main hoist, aux hoist, and boom hoist. The footnotes on that page matter – don’t skip them. I have seen mechanics bolt a crane together from memory and find out the hard way the boom is too long for the transport trailer.

7 Systems Detailed in This Technical Manual

The manual does not stop at dimensions. It lays out the entire hydraulic system: main hoist motor and reduction gear, clutch, brake, drum lock for each winch. You get the same breakdown for the aux hoist and boom hoist systems. If you need to troubleshoot a winch that drifts or a brake that slips, you need the factory schematic. This is the same schematic the IHI technicians use. I have used it on a CCH2000 with a hard-to-diagnose boom hoist brake issue – the manual’s hydraulic motor specs saved me two hours of guessing.

Standard and Optional Equipment: What the Manual Covers

The standard equipment list fills a full page of the manual: engine tachometer with hour meter, hydraulic pressure gauge, moment limiter, electric fuel pump, slewing flashing light, travel warning buzzer (with voice alarm), winch mode selector, and more. The optional equipment section includes items like the jib drum reeving winch, tagline, slewing parking brake, constant speed slewing system, and combustion heater. If you are adding aftermarket options or troubleshooting a warning system, you need the OEM wiring references. Page numbers are not printed for every part, but the manual is organized by major assembly. This is not a reprint – it is a scan of the original factory document with IHI part numbers and specs.

Why OEM Specs Matter for Crane Safety

Aftermarket manuals often mix up metric and imperial. On a 200-ton crane, a torque spec off by 5% can crack a boom-section bolt. The Ihimer CCH2000 Technical Manual is OEM – all dimensions are in millimeters, all capacities in metric tons. The swing speed and travel speed are listed with the exact hydraulic pressure ranges. Do not trust a third-party PDF that says “ref” in the torque column. I have seen the results: a dropped load because the brake assembly torque was wrong. Factory data is not a suggestion; it is the specification that the crane was designed to. If you work on this machine, get the original document. Related manuals you might need: Ihimer CCH700 Technical Manual – Factory Specs & OEM Data, IHI CCH1200 Fully Hydraulic Crawler Crane Specifications, and IHI CCH1500-5 Fully Hydraulic Crawler Crane Specs.

You want the official factory know-how?
Manual Transmission repair procedures differ, but for the CCH2000, you need the hydraulic schematics from IHI. The external reference for manual transmission systems Manual Transmission is a separate topic, but the torque converter lockup logic on some cranes shares principles with automotive automatics. Don’t go down rabbit holes – stick to the OEM manual for this machine.

Can I use this manual to perform a complete engine rebuild on the CCH2000?

No. This is a technical manual focused on the crane systems, not a full engine service manual. It covers the engine tachometer, coolant temp gauge, and fuel pump specs, but you will need the engine manufacturer’s shop manual for internal repairs. The manual does include the gradability and engine type, so you can identify the base engine.

What years does this manual cover?

The publication year is not listed on the manual. It applies to the CCH2000 model as built by IHI Construction Machinery Limited. The content matches the fully hydraulic crawler crane produced in the mid-2000s through current production if the model design hasn’t changed. Contact IHI for serial number applicability.

Does the manual include wiring diagrams?

No, but it lists every electrical component in the standard equipment section (plug socket 24V, speaker, switches, warning lights). Wiring schematics are not included in this 32-page document. If you need wiring diagrams, you need the separate IHI electrical manual.

How many pages and what format?

32 pages, scanned from the original factory manual. Format is PDF. The file name is IHI_CCH2000_Technical_Manual_en-31913016473.pdf. It includes the full dimension diagram on page 3 and the equipment lists. It does not include step-by-step repair procedures – it is a specification and reference manual.

This manual sits on my roll cart next to the micrometer. Every time I work on an Ihimer CCH2000, I flip to the dimensions page to verify boom foot height or shoe width before transport. The OEM data saves time and keeps you from guessing. If you maintain heavy cranes, you need the factory document. Access the Factory Manual now and get the real specs.
