Lincoln, UK-based construction company Abba Plant Hire has purchased a Liebherr LTC 1050-3.1 compact mobile crane.

The LTC 1050-3.1 has a double fly, with integrated assembly jib, sheaves and searcher hook, that can be offset by 0, 20, 40 and 60 degrees. The crane also has a height adjustable operator’s cab and Liebherr’s VarioBase outrigger system.

Tracy Bourne, director at Abba, commented, “We have a long-standing relationship with Liebherr which made the decision to purchase this additional crane an easy one. The versatility of the three-axle LTC 1050-3.1 really sets it apart and will ensure we continue to supply our ever-increasing customer base with the latest technology and innovations within this sector of our business. The crane was a big hit on our stand at the Lincolnshire Show and I am sure the LTC1050-3.1 will be a hit with our customers too.”
