This 2001 PM mounted knuckle boom crane — sometimes referred to as a knuckle boom truck or articulating crane truck — is a truck-mounted, articulating lifting machine used for loading, unloading, and placing materials at job sites where a conventional straight-boom crane or dedicated truck would be impractical. PM is an established Italian manufacturer of truck-mounted cranes and lifting equipment with a long history of supplying the construction, utility, and materials-handling industries.
The crane itself carries a rated capacity of 10,800 pounds and offers a reach of 31 feet, delivering 1,800 pounds at that full extension. Two hydraulic outriggers stabilise the unit during lifting operations. The truck is configured as a 4x4 and is powered by a DT466 engine — a well-regarded inline-six diesel — paired with an Allison automatic transmission. The DT466 fitted here is a pre-emissions unit. The seller reports only 28,185 miles and 1,659 hours of use, figures that are described as very low for a machine of this age.
The flatbed body measures 12 feet 8 inches and is galvanised, fitted with stake sides that fold down or can be removed entirely, keeping the platform versatile for different load types. Two four-foot aluminium toolboxes are included. The steer tires are new 11R22.5s; the rear tires are reported at approximately 90% remaining tread. All rims have been freshly powder coated, and the brakes and drums are also reported at 90%. Additional features include a pintle hitch with air connection to the rear and cruise control. The unit has had a fresh service completed.
The seller describes the overall condition as exceptionally clean throughout, consistent with the low recorded hours and mileage, and notes the machine has seen very little use. It is located in Wisconsin, USA.
