CURRENTLY marking 75 years in business, Edinburgh based, Bernard Hunter Mobile Cranes has taken delivery of Scotland’s first 700 tonne capacity Liebherr mobile crane.
The eight axle LTM 1650-8.1 model is only the second of its type to enter service in the UK, replacing a 500 tonne, LTM, which has delivered sterling service throughout the last decade.
“The new crane puts our business into a different league as a supplier of heavy lifting solutions,” enthuses Mark Rafferty, managing director at Bernard Hunter. “The variety of applications it will suit is incredible. Some of our customers are already starting to plan work for the 700 tonner,” Mark added.
