Ward based in New York"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>With more than 100 years under its belt, New York\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/cpward.com\/\">C.P. Ward<\/a> is one of the most experienced construction companies in the Northeast of United States. Many of the services the company provides demand mobile cranes that can quickly get on and off the job site, such as steel erection, cell tower erections and HVAC \u00a0projects.<\/p>\n<p>In the summer of 2015, the company took delivery of a new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.manitowoccranes.com\/en\/cranes\/grove\/grove-products\/truck-mounted\/TMS9000E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grove TMS9000E<\/a> specifically for these types of projects. It needed a crane solution that could provide quick transport, setup and maneuverability both on and off the job site. Having used the 110 USt truck-mounted crane on a variety of sites, C.P. Ward is reporting great success.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Lanse, operations manager of the company\u2019s crane\/rigging division, said the TMS9000E has enabled the company to complete a wide range of projects, all needing just one worker at the helm.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0\u201cThe TMS9000E is a great one-man machine. We can have the same person drive the crane to the job site, set it up for lifts and then act as its operator. The self-loading counterweight system is extremely efficient and has significantly increased our return on investment when compared with the cranes we used to use in the 100 USt class. It\u2019s a real bang-for-your-buck crane.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Examples of projects completed with the crane include HVAC replacements, setting steel and formwork for construction projects and culvert replacement, among others. Lanse said the company makes great use of the crane\u2019s hydraulic luffing jib for these types of projects, adding that it gets used at least once a week. In essence, C.P. Ward uses the TMS9000E as a taxi crane, but with a stronger load chart and hydraulic luffing jib that such solutions typically don\u2019t possess.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.manitowoccranes.com\/~\/media\/Images\/news\/2016\/Grove%20TMS9000E%202.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On a recent project to install cell phone towers, Lanse said the crane\u2019s maneuverability and reach capability enabled the company to complete a job it otherwise couldn\u2019t have handled.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cFor this particular project up in Buffalo, New York, I was putting up cell phone towers with the crane. There wasn&#8217;t much room to work in \u2013 I had to set up the crane inside of a fenced-in compound,\u201d he explained. \u201cThe TMS9000E enabled me to maneuver into this area and still have enough reach with its 142 ft boom to lift to the top of the towers. And even with this kind of position, the crane had a strong enough load chart to make the lifts. It performed flawlessly.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Lanse also credits the crane\u2019s remote control system for aiding in the company\u2019s efficiency.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.manitowoccranes.com\/~\/media\/Images\/news\/2016\/Grove%20TMS9000E%203.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the remote control system we can swing the boom and the luffing jib in place for pinning on the boom,\u201d he said.\u00a0 \u201cThe operator is on the ground watching and making all of the connections. This really makes the TMS9000E a one-man machine. We don\u2019t need two workers to head out with the crane to complete a simple job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>C.P. Ward purchased the crane from Stephenson Equipment, with which the company has had a relationship for several years. Lanse said he studied the load charts of several cranes in the weight class before choosing the TMS9000E.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/www.manitowoccranes.com\/~\/media\/Images\/news\/2016\/Grove%20TMS9000E%204.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/stephensonequipment.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stephenson Equipmen<\/a>t has been providing sales and rentals of construction equipment, paving machinery and cranes since 1957.
