Crane Equipment Guide

Badger Equipment of Winona, Minn., a division of Manitex International, re-entered the crane market this year with 20 and 30 ton (18 and 27.2 t) cab-down style rough terrain cranes.

Badger Equipment offers the CD4430 30-ton capacity, the CD4430R 30-ton capacity with high rail gear and the CD4420 20-ton capacity cranes.

The cranes are designed for railroad customers who install rails and perform maintenance-of-way (MOW) functions, as well as refineries, general contractors and heavy industrial plants. Badger’s decision to return to crane manufacturing was based on market research and a need to fill a niche in the smaller crane markets.

The crane features:

• Six-sided boom

• Tier III Cummins engine All-wheel drive, all wheel steer and crab steering

• Optional Hi-Rail system

• Highly visible & comfortable cab with joystick controls

• Two boom choices

• Pick and carry capabilities
