UK rental and transport company County Lifting has taken delivery of the first BG Lift CWE 525 spider crane to arrive in the UK.

Its maximum tip height is almost 33 metres, and maximum radius 29.37 metres with a 580kg capacity, with the possibility to raise the jib 20 degrees above the horizontal boom.

Overall width is 1.85 metres – which extends to 2.07 metres when on site and space allows. Overall length is just over five metres, while the fully extended outrigger base is just over 6.8 metres, but is variable with full asymmetric set up possible. Brennero Gru launched the BG spider lift range at Bauma 2016, and added the heavy duty CWE 525 the following year. See New mini cranes from Brennero.
