UK rental company County Lifting has taken delivery of two 15 tonne JMG MC100-08 pick & carry cranes.
The MC100-08 – launched at the end of 2023, can also double as a heavy duty telehandler with its fully functional fork attachement. As with larger JMG cranes it also features a telescopic extendable frame. The unique feature of this model though is that it offers a choice of three interchangeable booms. County has taken its units with the longer three section boom, which offers a 10 metre lift height, at which point it can handle 10 tonnes.

The other two boom options include a shorter three section boom with a lift height of eight metres, and a very short two section heavy duty boom, best suited for use with the fork attachment which offers a capacity of 14 tonnes and a lift height of up to five metres with a load centre of 600mm. The forks can also be replaced with a hook.
