A friction crane is an older model of crane like an American Crawler 9210 or 4100 who's boom arm is controlled manually by a gear driven system where the operator must engage the clutch and throw gear sticks to operate the boom, cab and tracks.... These cranes are typically much stronger and have much stiffer booms than say a modern hydro crane.
They are good in heavy civil operations where they will take a lot of abuse because of their stout construction.

What are the 2kinds of friction?
Static Friction and Kinetic Friction. Static Friction is what friction that slows you down. While Kinetic friction is sliding friction.
What do lubricants do to friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction?
Lubricants reduce friction by replacing sliding friction with fluid friction.

What force is working against the box as the crane lifts it into the air?
Friction
Is a crane a pneumatic or hydrolic system and why?
Older type cranes used pneumatics for the operation of the crane's control systems. The actual movement of the crane's working components are usually operated by hydraulic cylinders or winch systems. The winch systems used to be powered by mechanical friction mechanisms but are typically powered by hydraulic motors today. Typically, pneumatics are never used to power the crane's load bearing functions

What is the major difference between a friction crane and a hydraulic crane?
A friction crane is an older model like an American 9210 who's boom controls are gear/ clutch driven. Engaging the clutch and throwing the gears requires a very stout frame and they typically have much stiffer booms and can tolerate a lot more abuse.... They are good for rough lifting operations like pulling pile or pile driving. Hydraulic cranes are there modern counterparts who's boom is controlled by hydraulic pistons which have a much lighter, more delicate touch to the controls and are much better in "heavy lift" operations where you need precision movement.
