The crane can be factory fitted or supplied as a retrofit attachment, requiring around 10 minutes to install. The outriggers have a spread of 1.25 metres at the front and just over two metres at the rear.
Founded in 2012 Thovo is based in Särö - to the south of Gothenburg on Sweden’s west coast - and is owned and managed by the father and son team of Thomas and Fabian Voeler. The company, which has been working with Tracked Carriers over the past two years, specialises in the supply of equipment such as electric conveyors, dumpers, Pianoplan stair climbers and utility vehicle to contractors.
Ben Dobson of Tracked Carriers, said: “We are delighted to strengthen our relationship with Thovo as they invest in more of our machines and become one of the first customers for our crane attachment. Thovo is a great example of how a proactive dealer can achieve success by targeting a specific market segment.”
