HAZEMIN of Canterbury has introduced a new vehiclemounted crane to cope with half-tone loads. The Auto-Con 500 is designed for double line operation and has a maximum load of lOcwt.
The company claims that the crane is suitable for vehicles in the one to five-tone carrying capacity class and, the single line operation model is suitable for vehicles of under 30cwt.
An extended reach boom of 7ft 6in is possible and the crane is manually set to one of three positions when extended.
It is fitted to the vehicle merely by bolting the crane to the floor of the vehicle using the chassis members to take the strain through the three U-bolts supplied.
