The crane launched in 1989 and since then customers have taken delivery in countries as diverse as France, Germany, Turkey, Cuba, Russia and Turkmenistan.

“At 50 m, the GTMR 386 can lift 1.5 t or with a 31 m jib this crane can lift 4.1 t. This makes them ideal for moving steel formwork and concrete buckets,” said David Havard, Potain’s global product manager for tower cranes.

The crane has a maximum capacity of 8 t and a maximum reach of 50 m. Height under hook is 36.2m.

“They are perfectly suited to residential construction, such as apartment blocks or hotels. In addition, customers like them for their very powerful load curves,” he said. “The GTMR 386 can transport on only three trucks and has good versatility in height and jib length.”
