    PALFINGER recently revealed the results of a Facebook photo contest that began on February 15. The contest asked North American customers to take pictures of their PALFINGER machines “on-the-job” with the goal of not only awarding a winner with a prize bag full of PALFINGER merchandise, but also to “establish a sense of community.” While a large number of photos were entered, Richard K. ultimately came out on top with his PW 50001-SH mounted knuckle boom crane. You can see the rest of the photos on PALFINGER’s website.

    About The PW 50001-SH

    The PALFINGER PW 50001-SH is designed especially for construction applications such as lifting building materials and aiding in the foundation forming process. It has a height of 109.7 inches (278.6 centimeters), width of 91.3 inches (231.9 centimeters), and installation width of 37.1 inches (94.2 centimeters). It has a maximum lifting capacity of 9,920 pounds (4,500 kilograms), hydraulic reach of 80.9 feet (24.7 meters), and rotation of 470 degrees.

    Other features of the overall PW-Series include a low-maintenance extension system, a Power Link connection between the knuckle and main booms, and LED warning lights on the stabilizers for improved visibility and safety.

    Find The Right Machine For You

    As of this writing, there is currently one PW 50001-SH model available on CraneTrader.com, but you’ll also find a large selection of other new and used PALFINGER cranes for sale on the site.
