Lee Lifting adds Liebherrs

UK crane rental company Lee Lifting has taken delivery of a 60 tonne Liebherr LTM 1060-3.1 All Terrain crane, with an MK 140 mobile self-erecting tower crane also on order.

The three axle LTM 1060-3.1 features a five section 48 metre main boom and a 16 metre bi-fold swingaway extension, providing a maximum tip height of 67 metres and a maximum radius of 48 metres. The crane is also equipped with Liebherr’s VarioBase outrigger set-up system.

Director Jody Whitmore said: "Adding another LTM 1060-3.1 to our fleet was a simple decision, having had one of the early models and realising its potential. Liebherr’s innovation backed up by excellent sales, service and parts departments makes dealing with them very easy."
