The jib can be offset at 0, 20 or 40 degrees, giving a maximum onboard tip height of 58 metres. The crane also features Liebherr’s LICCON3 control system.
New crane joins Marsden’s all-terrain fleet
The LTM 1055-3.3 is the second crane of its type to arrive in the UK. Marsden Managing Director Lee Marsden said the company viewed the model as a strong fit for its fleet because of its combination of low axle loads, overall weight and lifting performance.
Marsden displayed the new crane at Vertikal Days.
Three-axle crane combines reach and lifting capacity

The three-axle all-terrain crane is equipped with Liebherr’s LICCON3 control system. Its low axle loads and overall weight were among the factors Marsden cited in selecting the model for its operations.
