Keeping the lights on…
Despite the recent severe storms, Southdown Truck & Crane continues to assist in the repairs & upgrades of pylons and power cabling alike. With access to remote job sites being an issue, due to wet and muddy fields something a little special was required.
We provide 4 x 4 vehicle complete with experienced operator to overcome this problem. Aptly named ‘The Mule’ due to its size/work ratio, this vehicle is capable of traversing the harsh terrains that Britain has to throw at us. Fitted with a rear mounted Palfinger PK 7501 crane, it has the benefit of lifting capacities between 890kg at 7.5 metres and 1700kg at 4 metres. With a maximum reach of 11 metres including the fly jib, and a payload of 4,000kg plus the option of a post hole borer, this is one of the most versatile vehicles in the fleet.
