can also be regarded as protection for the crane, which prevent its exposure to more stress than it is designed to handle.
One component of the crane, which is exposed to strong forces, is the

. Many forces are transmitted inside the slewing motor, which are needed when, for instance, the crane is used to pull a tree sideways, perhaps at the end of a 10 meter arm.
For much of the time the slewing motor must be able to counteract the forces transmitted through the crane into the slewing motor. This may be when the processing unit pulls a tree with all its force. Often the valves open: The pressure inside the
