PB has delivered an 18m working height rough terrain scissor to Baumaschinen Schmittinger in Köngen, near Stuttgart, Germany.

The company said the PB TOP 19 fits the requirements of Schmittinger. “The object of desire is an absolute all-rounder that has the necessary power and can be used both indoor and outdoor. The PB S175-19E 4x4 fulfils these requirements with ease,” said Katrin Schmittinger, CEO of Schmittinger.

An emission-free, electro-hydraulic 4x4 drive and 500 kg lift capacity, with a maximum 6.36m x 1.88m large Mega-deck platform are key features.

The delivery represents the first PB scissor to be owned by Schmittinger, and its biggest one.

Schmittinger intends to reach new customers with the 18m scissor, as well as offering greater choice to its existing customer base.
