Select has purchased its first Sennebogen 683R Heavy Duty telescopic crawler

“Designed for heavy duty applications and rough terrain, the 683 has the ability to telescope with a load on all five sections of the main boom. Its compact design also adds great flexibility during transportation,” said Carl Hodges of Hassell.

“It can be transported as one unit without the need to de-ballast and has no requirement for additional assembly equipment. With fast set-up times and easy to use design the 683R has received excellent feedback from the operators.”

Select - part of the Laing O’Rourke group of companies - was established in 1985 to provide an extensive range of products and services for the construction industry including tower, crawler and mobile cranes, piling plant and tools. The company has a wide range of cranes with a lifting capacity from eight tonnes to 160 tonnes and it says the addition of the telescopic Sennebogen adds a new dimension to its modern fleet of crawler cranes.
