Premiere: Scholpp acquires the first for-hire Liebherr MK 73-3.1 mobile construction crane

Electric operation on site

Like its big brothers, the MK 73-3.1 operates electrically on site, either via site power supply or its integrated power drive. Operation is extremely quiet and emission-free in electric mode. The internal power drive is based on a single-engine concept. Its EcoMode feature enables reliable travel and economical operation.

Scholpp has acquired the MK 73-3.1 to expand its portfolio of mobile construction cranes for hire. The crane will primarily be used on construction sites where a reliable taxi crane with compact dimensions and a long reach is required. With a jib length of 38.5 metres, the crane offers a jib head load capacity of 2,000 kilograms with corresponding additional ballast. 'Our crane operators are already looking forward to using the MK 73-3.1 on our diverse job assignments,' says Christof Kopp, branch manager in Stuttgart. The new mobile construction crane will be based in the state capital. The crane is ideal for narrow streets and tight sites, for example for installing solar panels and air conditioning systems, rooftop greening and balcony assembly.
