Italian crane manufacturer Fassi has released the new F990RA.2.28 xhe-dynamic heavy duty hydraulic loader crane with a maximum load moment of 84.3 tonne-m. It has an L616 jib that extends to a maximum outreach of up to 32 m. The crane weighs 10,100 kg (8,750 kg without jib). Other features include: linkage, continuous rotation, RCH/RCS remote control, remote control outriggers, an optional XP facility and CE devices. Switzerland-based lifting and transport company TM Reymond bought the F990RA to be fitted to a MAN TGS 35.440 8x2 with HydroDrive hydraulic transmission on the front axle and a fourth steering axle.
The crane?s first job for owner Jean-Luc Reymond was at a cramped site on the outskirts of Lausanne, a city on Lake Geneva.
