The Hiab L-HiDuo 135LL-1 cranes, rear mounted to MAN TGM 26 6x2 trucks, can be used to load and unload heavy building materials. They can be fitted with up to three hydraulic extensions and is operated using Hiab's XS Drive radio remote-control.
Hiab’s authorised service centre Micklegate Fluid Power provided an aftersales service that has helped retain business with Bence.
Clive Taylor, operations manager for Bence Building Merchants said: “It is great having Micklegate on hand for all our servicing needs. They always come to service our vehicles in the morning, and by the afternoon if any repairs are needed, we’re notified straight away along with a quote, and they are repaired as soon as possible.”
Clive added: “We switched to Hiab following bad experiences with a previous supplier and we instantly knew it was the right choice when we met their sales representative who was knowledgeable and understanding of our needs. We originally put in an order for three cranes and now five years on we have nine Hiab cranes in our fleet and plan to gradually replace the remaining cranes in our fleet with Hiab’s too.”
