French crane contractor S.E Levage has purchased a used LTM 11200-9.1 from Liebherr in April, and since then it has been deployed in a number of jobs.

The LTM 11200-9.1 was completely refurbished and finished in the customer's colours with full livery.

For its fourth job the LTM 11200-9.1 had to go to the centre of Lyon. Two Liebherr excavators had to be hoisted into a yard for demolition work. The 9-axle machine was assembled with 160t of ballast to hoist the loads of up to 58t.

The road width between the historic buildings allowed all the outriggers to be fully extended for a support base of 13m x 13m. The Y telescopic guying was installed and the boom extended to 70m to enable the crane to hoist the heavy excavators and equipment high over the buildings.

The LTM 11200-9.1’s telescopic boom is 100m long, while lattice extensions and a luffing jib enable it to achieve hoist heights of up to 188m.
