A 52 m luffing jib is now available for the Manitowoc Model 12000 crawler crane. First customer, Chellino crane based in Illinois, US, used it in a Chicago oil refinery. Chellino lifted a 76 m coke unit, with a relief vale pipe sitting 3 m higher. The luffing jib can be combined with a heavy lift boom to give a maximum tip height of 94.5 m.
