STEIGER ® T 295 A<br />
T 295 A - T 900 HF ON THE WAY TO TEXAS<br />
On the basis of the RUTHMANN STEGIER T 900 HF our engineers have developed the first RUTHMANN<br />
STEIGER ® T 295 A for our customer Blade Platforms in the USA.<br />
The 90 meter (295 feet) truckmounted<br />
working platform is<br />
known in Europe under the name<br />
STEIGER ® T 900 HF und has already<br />
been successfully used for spectacular<br />
operations, among others<br />
securing the Notre-Dame de Paris<br />
Cathedral (pages 8 -9).<br />
Now the T 295 A is also available<br />
on the US market and rolls on a<br />
15-meter long, 7-axle Kenworth T<br />
880 chassis with the typical long<br />
American hood.<br />
All technical data of the<br />
RUTHMANN STEIGER ® T 900 HF<br />
could be adapted to the American<br />
chassis and in addition the<br />
STEIGER ® could be certified with<br />
the ANSI A92.2 and CSA C225<br />
standards relevant for the US market.<br />
The DRS system optimising the<br />
outreach is also available for the T<br />
295 A and ensures the maximum<br />
possible performance data in all<br />
situations.<br />
We wish Blade Platforms<br />
much success with the<br />
STEIGER ® T 295 A.<br />
Together with the escort vehicle, the<br />
RUTHMANN STEIGER ® T 295 A set off on<br />
the approximately 10.000-kilometre journey<br />
to Texas. In about 3 weeks, the ship will<br />
leave Bremerhaven for Texas.<br />
During the first tests of the RUTHMANN<br />
STEIGER ® T 295 A on the premises of the<br />
company Blade Platforms, the machine was<br />
already able to impress before it set off the<br />
next morning for its first operation on a<br />
wind turbine.<br />
