The LTM 1055-3.1 provides for comprehensive convenience.
During driving on the road, the spacious, silenced driver’s
cab offers an excellent view. Driver’s and co-driver’s seats
are pneumatically suspended, the steering wheel adjustable,
the rear mirrors heatable and electrically adjustable.
As safety of the crane personnel comes first during military
interventions, the standard driver’s cab can be interchanged
with an armoured version with integrated emergency roof
exits. Rapid action couplings enable the easy interchange of
the cabs within a few hours. Even with armoured cabs, the
crane travels with a 12 t max. axle load.
In order to increase the mobility of the 55-tonner, the air pres-
sure of all tyres can be reduced from 9 bar to 4 bar when not
in motion. This increases the tyre contact surface by up to
60 % and the driving on soft and less bearing soil is safe-
guarded. The compressor of the braking system enables the
re-pressurizing of the tyre to 9 bar. Instead of the standard
tyre equipment, it is also possible to fit tyres with emergency
running capabilities. In case of a tyre puncture, a fabric-rein-
forced solid-rubber ring attached to the rim prevents the tyre
from slipping off, so that a distance of 10 kilometres can still
be covered at speeds of up to 25 km/h.
