The Tadano AC 5.250L-2 is a formidable five-axle all-terrain crane that delivers an exceptional maximum lifting capacity of 250 tonnes, making it one of the most powerful and versatile cranes in its class for heavy infrastructure projects, wind turbine installations, industrial plant construction, and complex petrochemical applications. Its telescopic boom extends from 13.5 metres to an impressive 79 metres, with optional folding jib (FOJ) extensions reaching up to 109 metres, enabling remarkable height and reach for the most demanding lifting tasks. The crane’s compact transport width of just 2.55 metres, advanced all-wheel steering system with five steered axles, and hydropneumatic suspension ensure outstanding maneuverability on public roads and challenging job site terrain. With a gross weight optimized for transport and multiple tyre options, the AC 5.250L-2 offers excellent mobility while maintaining the lifting performance expected of a 250-tonne class crane.
Engineered for efficiency, safety, and operational versatility, the AC 5.250L-2 features a powerful 390 kW (530 HP) Mercedes-Benz OM471LA diesel engine meeting EU Stage V/Tier 4F emission standards, with HVO fuel compatibility for reduced environmental impact. The IC-1 Plus control system with Flex Base technology enables intelligent load management, allowing for asymmetric outrigger configurations (with five outrigger bases up to 8.30 metres) and automatic capacity optimisation for enhanced lifting performance. The crane offers flexible counterweight options ranging from 5.5 tonnes to a maximum of 80.0 tonnes, a heavy lift attachment that increases boom head sheaves to seven for capacities up to 138.7 tonnes, and a comprehensive selection of jib and runner extensions. Advanced operator aids include a load supervision camera, Tadano’s IC-1 Remote telematics system, a working range limiter, Tadano Surround View 360° camera system, and a comfortable, tiltable 0.875-metre cab with sliding windows, fold-out front window, and comprehensive climate control. Combining outstanding lifting capabilities with exceptional roadability and smart technology, the Tadano AC 5.250L-2 delivers the performance and reliability that the most demanding heavy lifting operations require.
