Fassi to launch compact knuckle boom

Fassi Cranes will launch a compact loader crane at the SAIE 2008 exhibition in Italy this September.

The F30 City, designed for the narrow spaces often found in European town centres, has a fully folded width of 1,600 mm. It will be available with up to three hydraulic extensions.

"This model has made it possible to maintain excellent extension and lifting capacity, in spite of the extremely restricted width of the crane," said Fassi.

The crane can lift 335 kg at a 6.3 m extension and brings the number of under three tonne metre capacity cranes available from Fassi to four.

"The F30 City can be equipped with a proportional multifunction remote control, with an electronic load limiting device, with a lift for the operator and a wide range of other hydraulic accessories, such as buckets, forks or jaws," added the company.
