The tracked TC600 Terrain Master can either be fitted with a 15 metre access platform or a loader crane

The Wiltshire based company, which specialises in equipment for utilities and grounds maintenance companies has sold the first unit, mounted with a Palfinger PK9001 loader crane, to Newcastle-based VLS – a supplier of leased vehicle to the electric supply industry. The crane has a maximum reach of 8.7 metres and a maximum capacity of 5.7 tonnes.

This TC600 has been fitted a nine metre/tonne loader crane

Autoguide’s managing director Richard Robinson said: “The machine is built to the required specification entirely in-house. The TC600 can also be fitted with a 15 metre access platform instead of the loader crane.”
