This Hitachi KH 100 is a used crawler crane — sometimes referred to as a lattice boom crane — built in Japan in 1980 and currently located in the Netherlands. Crawler cranes are heavy lifting machines mounted on tracked undercarriages, enabling them to travel across soft or uneven ground and carry substantial loads without the need for outriggers. Hitachi is a long-established Japanese manufacturer with a broad presence in construction and heavy lifting equipment, and their crawler cranes have been widely used on civil engineering, infrastructure, and industrial projects worldwide.
The crane carries serial number and is rated to a maximum lifting capacity of 30 tonnes, with a boom length of 19 metres. Power comes from a Hino DS-50-A engine, which was fully rebuilt in April 2012, giving the powertrain a significantly younger service history than the machine's 1980 build date would otherwise suggest. Hino is a recognised Japanese commercial engine manufacturer, and the rebuild represents a meaningful investment in the crane's long-term reliability.
Load safety is handled by a Kruger Mark 3e2 safety system, which provides rated capacity indication and overload protection during lifting operations. The undercarriage is described as standard lifetime specification and received new tracks in November 2018, meaning the running gear is in substantially renewed condition. Together, the rebuilt engine, replacement tracks, and functioning safety system indicate a machine that has been actively maintained over the course of its working life.
