The buffers of the crane have an hinge arrangement so that they can be swung aside if needed but I can't imagine why that would be required. (Khalid Kagzi)

Swinging the buffer out of the way would allow the crane to come closer to the object being lifted. Even a few critical inches could make a significant difference to the amount of load lifted by the crane.
