Able crane out of winnipeg has that same crane. I did all the big lifts as the rigger at the new ethanol plant in minnedosa Mb. for the pipefitters. The operator Rick could tear that thing down for transport in about six hours and set up in about the same.The first time took a little longer but he got faster every time.Nice machine to rig for very smooth.

That's our LinkBelt LS348 (Eisenhart Crane,York PA.) It's a 300 ton Crawler, and it was out near the Lehigh Valley Airport a few weeks ago. I believe it's there doing tilt up walls.

We have the same crane except with extra wide grousers, and a 435' luffing jib.

Crane is mainly on parking decks or tilt wall jobs.
