For much of this period, its most important tool has been a National Crane boom truck.<\/p>\n<p>Layton Holsinger, founder and president of the Davidson, North Carolina-based company, said the performance of<a href=\"http:\/\/www.manitowoccranes.com\/en\/cranes\/national-crane\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> National Crane boom trucks<\/a> has been one of the keys to the company\u2019s efficiency. The most recent addition to its fleet is the NBT55.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m a National Crane man,\u201d Holsinger said. \u201cNational Crane makes the ideal boom truck for tree work which is why I\u2019ve owned four or five of them over the years. When you grab a heavy load with the NBT55, you almost don\u2019t realize it. That\u2019s how stable this crane is. You can extend the boom out to its maximum hydraulic reach and the machine always operates precisely, making it perfect for tree removal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The NBT55 features a 55 USt capacity and 128 ft boom. It is one of the first boom trucks on the market to offer fully integrated machine control and a Rated Capacity Limiter (RCL). Its outrigger beam position sensing system aids in load chart selection.<\/p>\n<p>Tree service is a precise task that requires smooth operation and precise lifting capabilities, both of which are improved with the NBT55. Also important, Holsinger said, is a moderate footprint.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s hard to find a crane with enough lifting power that still fits in the driveway,\u201d Holsinger said. \u201cThe NBT55 is exactly what we were looking for in that department. I know that the crane will perform like it says on the load chart and it\u2019s just the right size.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2011 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/minutes.machine.market\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NBT55_2-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"NBT55_2\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NBT55_2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/machine.market\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/NBT55_2.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>Holsinger purchased the NBT55 two years ago from the Charlotte branch of Baton Rouge, Louisiana-based <a href=\"http:\/\/www.he-equipment.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">H&amp;E Equipment Services<\/a>. He said the decision to buy the crane was an easy one, having previously purchased the NBT40 and 500E2 boom truck models from the dealer, too.<\/p>\n<p>Established in 1961, H&amp;E offers a host of services for all of the Manitowoc crane brands, including crane rentals and sales, parts and services, and training. The company is also a certified EnCORE partner, providing outstanding service and the highest quality remanufacturing and structural repair work for Manitowoc-brand cranes.<\/p>\n<p>Layton\u2019s Tree Service was founded in 1973 by Layton Holsinger to provide tree trimming and removal services to the metro Charlotte area. The company has remained family owned and operated since its inception, and has grown to nine employees that cover a 100-mile radius around Charlotte.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI work with the crew every day,\u201d Holsinger said. \u201cIf the job isn\u2019t done right, we don\u2019t leave the site until it is. The NBT55 plays a major part in helping us to maintain a relationship with our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Layton\u2019s Tree Service provides tree maintenance service to such high-profile clients as Trump National Golf Club, Davidson College and the town of Davidson, North Carolina, thanks to its track record of efficiency and dependability with National Crane boom trucks.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.96px; line-height: normal;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For more than 40 years, Layton\u2019s Tree service has been one of the premier tree maintenance and removal companies in the Southeast.
