New National Crane

Manitowoc Cranes has launched the all new National NBT30H-2 boom truck targeted at the tree care business.

The new model will be officially launched at the TCI Expo in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, next week, to the several thousand tree care professionals, that are expected to attend.

The 30 ton NBT30H-2 has a choice of either a 30 or a 33.5 metre four-section booms, the latter of which is said to be the longest in its class. Dual-H style outriggers allow full, mid and retracted set ups, to allow use in locations with limited space and provide greater versatility. The new model includes a load-sensing hydraulic system, a fully integrated Rated Capacity Limiter with colour display. The dual-side operator stations have mechanical control levers and feature engine warning information etc, although radio remotes are also offered as is boom mounted aerial work platform.

The unit on display has been sold to National Cranes dealer Stephenson Equipment of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Justin Pilgrim product director for boom trucks and carry deck cranes, said:
“In the past, we have shown some of our most popular large boom truck models at this show, such as the NBT40 Series, but this year we are bringing the new NBT30H-2 because we believe it can help many companies bolster their bottom lines.”

“This new boom truck is designed to be flexible and efficient, two characteristics needed to thrive in the tree care industry. From multiple boom lengths and mounting configurations to options such as baskets and radio remotes, customers will be able to get on and off the job site quickly, with a limited amount of set up and preparation. Add to that a class-leading boom length and this crane is sure to improve our customers’ ROI.”
