Coastline Equipment Becomes Shuttlelift Industrial Crane Dealer
April 28, 2015 - The newest addition to Shuttlelift’s dealer network is Coastline Equipment Crane Division, based in Sacramento, Calif. The company operates two locations, with another branch in Santa Ana, and both will sell and support a range of the carrydeck industrial cranes.
Coastline, a branch of Coastline Equipment specializing in crane sales and rental operations, has launched the partnership with the purchase of 10 Shuttlelift cranes: Five of the 9-ton capacity Model CD3339s and five 15-ton capacity Model CD5515-2s. The cranes are now available at both of the company’s locations, for sale and rental.
Jim Chavalas, Coastline’s sales manager, said that many of his customers have requested carrydeck cranes for their operations in a wide range of applications, including petrochemical, refinery, power-plant, industrial, and marine.
The CD3339 features a 32-ft. main boom, single-stage outriggers and ergonomic controls. With multiple steering modes and a 7-ton capacity deck, the crane offers easy maneuverability in tight spaces.
The CD5515-2 has a three-section, 41-ft. boom or an optional four-section, full-power 50-ft. boom. One of Shuttlelift’s newest cranes, it has an optimized mast design, exclusive pivoting boom nose with 50-ft. boom, and an all-new cab design with hydraulic proportional controls and a hardwired graphical rated capacity indicator. Its 10-ton capacity deck capacity and three steering modes give it maximum maneuverability.
Mike Heinrich, director of sales for industrial cranes and national accounts at Manitowoc, said the CD5515-2 and the CD3339 hit the “sweet spot” for rental companies such as Coastline CD. “Rental outlets are really finding the CD5515-2 and CD3339 to be dynamic tools in their fleets,” he said. “Customers are driving demand for rental cranes in the 9- to 25-ton range. These two carrydeck crane falls squarely in the middle.”
