First glimpse

When the Manitowoc group announced that it was building a radical new telescopic crane the Grove GTK1100, some doubted that the company would manage to get the product built and working in time for Bauma.

Some wondered if the concept would work at all.

Having taken a dozen orders in the first few months after it was announced we now have the first …unofficial... pictures of the new machine on the Wilhelmshaven test pad.

First glimpse at the GTK1100 in Wiesbauers colours

We must stress that the picture is unofficial and was kindly supplied by a reader. It is painted in the livery of German crane rental company Wiesbauer.
