Terex 5800 for Malina

Ostrava based Malina Crane Hire has taken delivery of the first 220 tonne Terex Explorer 5800 All Terrain crane in the Czech Republic from Terex’s distributor ISOS Trade.

The five axle 5800 features a 70 metre main boom with a bi-fold swingaway and a 12 metre straight insert, offering a maximum tip height of 103 metres. The 10x8x10 chassis features all-wheel steering. The company says the new crane will be primarily used in the chemical and construction industries.

Malina owner Radek Malina, who took delivery of the 5800 from Terex’s facility in Zweibrücken, Germany, said: “I chose this crane because it's a very modern machine with a forward looking concept. Besides being the most compact crane in its category, it has the longest boom. This does not only represent an advantage for us, but also for our customers as for some cases they only need to get a smaller machine doing the work of a bigger one.”

Speaking on the crane’s single Euromot IV/ Tier 4F Scania diesel engine he added: “It's the future, and at Malina we invest for the future. With how far engine technology has come, the advantages of having one engine are evident, and it's a matter of time until it gets widely implemented throughout the industry. I am happy to be one of the early adopters, as this perfectly embodies Malina Crane’s forward thinking mentality.”
