The new cranes - supplied through local dealer Irlequip, include: a six axle 300 tonne GMK6300L-1, two five axle 120 tonne GMK5120Ls and two three axle 60 tonne GMK3060L-1s.
(L-R) John, Seamus and John Lennon Senior of Tusker Tusker managing director John Lennon said: “We have always appreciated the performance and productivity of Grove cranes, but we saw an opportunity to achieve higher utilisation, lower downtime and reduced running costs by switching to new models. With the GMK6300L-1, we have added a well proven leader in its class, while the three and five axle models are perfect for our busy rental fleet.”
John Ledwith of Irlequip with John Lennon of Tusker and Pier Domenico Ravera of Grove/Manitowoc Irlequip director John Ledwith added: “We provide full customer support for Grove crane owners in Ireland and many of our customers start with a used Grove crane and then convert to a new one once they see how the machine’s perform. We’ve got a fully equipped workshop, spare parts stock and a team of technicians who support customers every day.”
