New Load King models this year include the 22-51TM, 25-92RM, 19-70M and upgraded 35M and 35 / 40RS units, as well as the 40-142RS.
on a tracked Prinoth T22 chassis. The crane is equipped with a 142-foot main boom and is capable of a 200-foot platform height.
At Load King, John Lukow, senior vice president, cranes, said the company has implemented A92.2 charts for all crossovers to facilitate the most efficient basket work possible.“ We have also added asymmetrical outriggers to allow for fitting the crane in tight spaces and have replaced proximity switches with magnetic sensors in our outriggers to improve reliability,” he added.

Elliott Equipment’ s new self-leveling, rotating material-handling platform is now available on the company’ s E-Line aerials with 145-, 160- and 190-foot tip heights. year include the 22-51TM, 25-92RM, 19-70M and upgraded 35M and 35 / 40RS units, as well as the 40-142RS with the tilt cab and control system from crossovers. The company’ s boom trucks are manufactured in a purposebuilt crane assembly facility with a new machining and welding center and new wet paint and powder coat systems.
“ At Elliott Equipment we continue to push the limits of utility construction technology with our new self-leveling, rotating material-handling platform, now available on E-Line aerials with 145-, 160- and 190-foot tip heights,” said Jim Glazer, president & CEO.“ While many long-boom cranes rely on gravity-leveled platforms, this design brings a smarter, safer and more productive solution to high-reach applications.”
The self-leveling platform from Elliott, Glazer explained, keeps operators optimally positioned. It also features a hydraulically telescoping and rotating material handler rated for 1,500 pounds, enabling precise load placement without additional rigging. Because the platform can remain mounted during boom transport as well, crews save time setting up and tearing down on jobsites. Fully compliant with ANSI A92.2, the system also eliminates the need for OSHA-required trial lifts and proof tests.
Ryan McGiboney, market manager at Altec said that the luffing jib technology on the Altec AC65E-155S offers a hydraulically powered articulating jib that is fully controllable from the operator’ s cab. The luffing jib also provides for 105 feet of platform side reach in
