Tadano unveils new all terrain crane with a 79 metre main boom
24 February 2025

Tadano has introduced the AC 5.250L‑2, a variant of its AC 5.250‑2 all‑terrain crane featuring a 79.0-metre (259.2‑foot) main boom.
Self‑erecting extensions are available from 5.8 to 30.0 metres (19.0 to 98.4 feet). The overall system length is 109.0 metres (357.6 feet), making it good for urban applications such as positioning heavy equipment over obstacles and assembling large tower cranes.
The crane delivers a load moment of up to 736 tonne metres and lifts 105 tonnes (231,920 pounds) with a 13.5 metre (44.3 foot) main boom at a 7.0 metre (23 foot) working radius. An optional heavy‑lift attachment increases capacity to 138.7 tonnes (305,780 pounds).
Optimised for mobility, the AC 5.250L‑2 can be configured with 10×6 or 10×8 drive options on 406 mm (16 inch) steel wheels while meeting axle load limits for public road transport. It has the IC‑1 Plus crane control system for real‑time load capacity monitoring. A Surround View camera system is available to assist with positioning the crane on site.
Power is from a 396 kW (530 hp) Mercedes‑Benz diesel engine that complies with EU Stage V and US EPA Tier 4 Final exhaust emission standards. It has fuel‑saving functions such as an Eco Mode and a start-stop system.
The new crane makes it debut at the Bauma exhibition in Munich, Germany, 7 to 13 April 2025. For regular updates on what will be new at the Bauma trade show bookmark our rolling news story.
