61 metre Palfinger for APEX

Bison Palfinger will extend its current range with a new 61 metre working height truck mounted lift at APEX in September.

The new model, designated the TKA 61 KS, joins the KS range that feature the company’s patented counter slewing device that allows the counterweight to remain inside the vehicle width through 360 degrees as well as helping reduce vehicle length.

The Bison variable outrigger spread system, combined with the counter rotating slew make this an ideal lift ofr working in congested city streets. The overall length of the new unit is only 11 metres and it is mounted to a 32 tonne, 4.5 metre wheel base truck.

Until now, the largest model in the Bison range has been the 57 metre TKA57KS, the new model is similar in many ways but is a metre longer, to accommodate the extra boom length. It also includes a telescopic jib with a 150 degree working arc and offers a maximum outreach of 39 metres, just over a metre less than the 57.
