New clarification added: Question:Lot2-D KNUCKLE BOOM CRANE GENERAL-Variable stability limitCould you explain what is variable stability limit and what should we indicate?UNOPS Response:Automatically adjusts the crane's lifting capacity on the basis of optimal stability. More load on the truck bed means more pressure on the legs, which means greater stability. So, a load of cargo on the truck will mean that you can lift significantly more before the system stops the crane, allowing the crane to always operate at its optimal allowed capacity.Question:Lot 3-F KNUCKLE BOOM CRANE GENERALAs this lot3 named-Seven (7) Tonne Payload 6X4 Truck, Crane and Auger, would you send us the reference pictures.Question:Lot 3-I ACCESSORIES REQUIRED- Drill chipWhat is drill chip and what should we indicate?UNOPS Response:You should indicate how the auger bit can meet the following requirement - The rock drill chips must quickly be removed from the drilling zone to prevent secondary cutting of the rock chips. This unnecessary crushing and/or drilling of rock chips increases the wear of the drill bit and decreases the penetration rateQuestion:Delivery term- DAP Chipinge and Chimanimani in Zimbabwe Could you confirm the detailed DAP address, including number and street?UNOPS Response:We do not have an exact address at the moment, but both of these towns in Zimbabwe are very small and so delivery to any location in either will not incur any additional cost.
