WPPE Named Hiab Dealer Across Midwest Region

Walter Payton Power Equipment (WPPE) has been named an authorized dealer for Hiab equipment, expanding its lifting and material handling offerings across Illinois, Indiana, Michigan and Kentucky.

WPPE has been selected as a Midwest partner for Hiab as part of the company’s new dealer network rollout. The agreement adds Hiab equipment to WPPE’s existing lineup of crane and lifting solutions.

Among the models now available are the Hiab Hi-Pro 425 Drywall Crane and the Hiab 352E.8 loader crane. The Hi-Pro 425 is designed for handling drywall materials, while the 352E.8 is a heavy-segment loader crane with a remote-controlled system and an outreach of 74 feet, five inches.

Hiab cranes included in the offering feature systems such as the Semi Automatic Folding (SAF) system, which allows operators to fold and unfold the crane using a single control lever, and an Automatic Greasing System designed to maintain lubrication of moving components.

“We’re excited to add Hiab to our portfolio of industry-leading brands,” said Mike Noonan of WPPE sales. “This partnership allows us to provide our customers with even more advanced lifting solutions, supported by the service and expertise they’ve come to expect from Walter Payton Power Equipment.”

WPPE will distribute Hiab equipment throughout its Midwest service area as part of the expanded partnership.
