“Although the Tadano TM-1882 was designed primarily for the truss industry, we utilize this crane on a daily basis in our operated/maintained crane rental fleet. The out-and-down outrigger design enables our operators to set up the crane in tight spots where access can be challenging. The six-section boom allows us additional overhang when hauling equipment on our flatbed and step deck semi-trailers and makes it easier to drive with minimal front overhang. I feel the best feature is the smooth and precise controls while multifunctioning. Whenever our operators are all working, I’ll fill in to cover a job. Whenever I have the choice, I’ll be operating the TM-1882.”

Coast Cranes Ltd. suggested the Tadano TM-1882 featuring a six-section boom. Expecting a poor load chart compared to a conventional boom, I was surprised that it had a better chart at various lift points than some 20-and 22-ton models. Features contributing to great maneuverability and flexibility: H-style multi-extension outriggers; short retracted boom; over 80 feet of boom without a jib; continuous rotation; and one-hand remote control. The TM-1882 was the perfect crane to compliment our existing fleet. Its performance has secured more repeat business than any amount of promotional gimmicks and has proven itself to be a tough competitor in a highly competitive market.”

“The new Tadano TM1882 is the very best crane I’ve ever operated. All functions are extremely smooth and responsive. Fast set up and level ability of the crane is very conducive to a faster turn around, critical in this business. The swing system and brake hold the load even. The height and ground clearance of the rear stabilizers allow me to get places I couldn’t get before.”
