The former Emsley Crane Hire operator has bought a four-axle Spierings SK477-AT4 truck-mounted folding tower crane and established David Millington Crane Hire, based near York. The crane can lift 1.7t at a maximum radius of 38m and can lift its maximum load of 7t out to 11.46m radius. Maximum lifting height with the jib horizontal is 24m, or 42.15m with the jib offset at 30º. The photo shows Dave Millington (right) collecting the crane from Spierings managing director Leo Spierings at the factory in the Netherlands.
