The long and the short of it
Tadano’s HTLJ, or hydraulic telescoping luffing jib lets users reach not only higher, but further out. Andreas Hofmann points out that long booms with thin steel not only pose a challenge while fabricating the boom, but when using it: the boom will deform, like a fishing rod. The company’s ‘Lift Adjuster’ aims to help operators account for this movement when lifting.
