Repainted and delivered
Crane, truck and trailer – preferably yesterday. No problem! Painted in the company’s own color combination? Let’s go! Less than 6 weeks after the first contact, we were able to hand over the vehicles to our customer – in the right “dress”, of course. Our stock of new vehicles and the long-term planned construction-slots often enable us to realize very short delivery times. The Volvo of the type FH 460 CHH-LOW 6 × 2 with a low construction container-platform-superstructure was available as a new vehicle on our premises. It only had to be repainted. Since trucks with loading cranes have established themselves as an important part of our delivery program, new vehicles are continiously being planned. Deliveries and satisfied rental customers confirm our assessments.
Volvo truck with container-platform-superstructure
The chassis is powered by a 12.8 liter diesel engine. Its exhaust gases flow out of the exhaust pipe in accordance with EURO 6D. The power unit transfers the power to the automated I-Shift transmission. Technically, the package could move a total train weight of 60,000 kg. There is at least enough space behind the cab. The platform with the dimensions 6,300 x 2,480 x 600 / 1,900 mm (side and front wall) has container locks, side walls and stake pockets. So it’s good to have your own crane with you for loading.

We wish our customers a lot of fun with their new vehicles and of course always a safe journey.
