THE first Liebherr LRT 1090-2.1 rough terrain crane in Scotland has been snapped up by Bernard Hunter Cranes.
The 90-tonne model boasts a 47-metre telescopic boom incorporating Liebherr’s telescopic boom technology. The boom can be equipped with a 10.5 to 19-metre double swingaway fly jib with up to 40 degrees of offset, delivering a maximum hook height of 66 metres and a working radius of 50 metres.
The cab can be tilted backwards to provide a better viewing angle of the load. Additionally, it is fitted as standard with an outrigger monitor, which automatically detects the support status and includes it in the crane control system.
Liebherr added that the standard VarioBase support technology delivers higher lifting capacities and also ensures ‘maximum operational safety’.
Mark Rafferty, MD of Bernard Hunter, said, “The addition of this impressive LRT 1090-2.1 adds a whole new offering to our versatile fleet of modern cranes, as we seek to offer our customers a complete range of lifting services.”
The move follows the addition of an LTM 1300-6.2 to the fleet earlier this year.
