Xin-Hong chief executive, Chien-Min Wu said: “The LTM 1300-6.3 is particularly suitable for our planned operations in science parks, but also on construction sites, in refineries and power stations. It’s a versatile six axle crane with an excellent telescopic boom and outstanding capacities. With the new mobile crane, we now also have a new flagship for our fleet, which has a considerable resale value.”
