The huge 1500tm SCM M1500 has a maximum loading capacity of 63t at 24m. At 80m jib-end the crane can lift 15t. The counterjib slewing radius is 28m. Free height of stationary crane is 105m; on a gantry it rises 4m less.
The crane features a cabin-mounted load moment limiter, hoisting height limiter, trolley limiter and slewing limiter, anemometer and aerial
Mast sections are 5.5m by 5.5m by 5.8m, made of Q345B steel chords with diameters of 180mm and 160mm.
