100 tonnes for Schares

German rental company Schares has taken delivery of a 100 tonne Tadano AC 4.100L-1 All Terrain crane.

The four axle AC 4.100L-1 features a six section, 60 metre main boom, topped by a 10 to 19 metre bi-fold swingaway with up to 40 degrees of offset. An 8.1 metre insert can be installed between the boom nose and swingaway to provide a maximum tip height of 85 metres. The maximum counterweight is 24.5 tonnes, of which up to 6.1 tonnes can be carried on-board within 12 tonne axle loads.

The handover

Managing director, Christoph Schares said: “Its powerful lifting capacity, combined with a 59.4 metre long main boom and an axle load lower than the 12 tonne limit, makes it an extremely cost effective taxi crane.”

Eric Reichmann of Schares added: “It goes without saying that the AC 4.100L 1 is also perfect for erecting large cranes.”
