Finnish rental company Janneniska has ordered 35 Ruthmann Steiger TB 270+ truck mounts.

The most recent order for 25 units, in the 3.5 tonne truck mount category, came during the Bauma exhibition in April, following an order for 10 earlier in the year. The company has also secured an option to purchase a further 25 units of the machine.

The model features 27m working height and 16.4m outreach, which were until recently were only possible in the heavier 7.49 tonne truck class, said the manufacturer. “With the TB 270+ we can aim at very different customer groups. For example, local authorities, energy companies and all kinds of crafts, including garden and landscape companies.”
