The company said that the cranes were developed in response to: “strong demand in the emerging markets for high-quality truck cranes with good lifting performance, the capacity to drive both on rough roads and at high-speed on highways, that were reliable and durable with easy routine maintenance. Customers also like cranes made in Japan, as they provide good value throughout the life cycle and have good residual values”.
