GMK5130-2

• The long-time customer worked with Manitowoc Lift Solutions to develop the GMK6450-1 from the GMK6400-1 design, expanding its ability to supply large all-terrain cranes
• The crane becomes the 14th Grove model in the company’s fleet and has been on the road almost constantly since its delivery in October 2022.

• New GMK6400 and GMK5250XL-1 arrivals joined an eight-strong Grove fleet to support an LNG plant shutdown close to Darwin, NT. Equipment supplier Tutt Bryant selected the cranes for their reliability and performance. 
• The original fleet of eight cranes handled the first stage of the shutdown in 2021 and then new arrivals provided added lifting power for the second stage in 2022. 
• A mix of four-, five- and six-axle cranes covered multiple tasks, with Manitowoc providing two on-site technicians to ensure maximum uptime.
