The HIAB XS 288 E8 HiDuo crane
mounted on a Volvo FM 8x4 with a
13.5m trailer, custom built for Stramit,
was developed for mid-tier roofing
applications.
According to the company the solution
is ideal for residential, multi res and light
commercial building projects, as well as
hard to access locations such as narrow
sites.
“The compact and efficient design of the
vehicle can get close to a building site,
eliminating the need for a separate crane
to be set-up on site,” John Bull, Stramit
Group Marketing Manager said.
“With the product arriving at the same
time as the crane there’s no need to
coordinate delivery times, thus saving
on handling the product and in turn
reducing possible product damage.“
Stramit’s Crane to Roof unit is designed
to reach a height of 23m, and will lift a
maximum sheet length of 18m, and a
maximum load of 2 tonnes. Featuring
stabiliser legs at the rear and on the sides

of the unit, which are for stability only
and not lifting, unlike conventional slew
or AT cranes, this design aspect makes
the unit suitable for nearly all worksites
under five degrees slope. Additionally, set
up times are significantly reduced with
the stabiliser legs being fully engaged
within five minutes. Once in position, the
unit is ready to lift the Stramit roofing
product within 15-20 minutes.
The Stramit Crane to Roof solution is also
safe and reliable with fully trained crane
operators using wireless technology to
best position product into the desired
location, increasing safety and efficiency.
A further advantage of the wireless
technology is the option of a combined
Driver and Dogman package allowing
tasks to be completed faster and at a
lower cost. Crane to Roof unit is available
within a 100km radius of Stramit’s
metro locations in Brisbane, Sydney and
Melbourne.
