Polish crane rental company Karmax has taken delivery of a new 100 tonne Grove GMK4100L-2 All Terrain crane from local dealer Zeppelin Polska.
This is the second Grove GMK4100L-1 for the company which has selected the new unit based on experience with its existing model.
The four axle GMK4100L-2 features a seven section 60 metre main boom and can be topped with a 9.7 to 16 metre bi-fold swingaway extension, with additional eight metre inserts available for a maximum tip height of 89 metres. It can also carry 6.8 tonnes of its 26 tonnes of counterweight onboard within 12 tonne axle limits. Karmax also took the optional MAXbase variable outrigger set up and monitoring system.
The handover
Owner Karol Miśkiewicz said: “Our new GMK4100L-2 is extremely versatile and compact. It is ideal for standard lifting jobs at busy construction sites, where precision and control are key, and access is often tight.”

Our operators love it too - it’s super comfortable and the new cab tilts to 20 degrees, for better visibility. It’s this kind of attention to detail that makes a difference when working for hours at a time. We have always been impressed with the workmanship of Grove cranes, and we also get excellent after sales service from Zepplin.”
