Hiab At Work - Industrial Gas

Knuckle-Boom Crane
In the highly competitive Industrial Gas Distribution industry, businesses need to stay competitive. HIAB knuckleboom cranes offer more maneuverability and better control than traditional methods. HIAB X-HiDuo cranes provide industry leading precision, power, safety and control, allowing operators to move to the next job in less time - a big advantage when making multiple deliveries.

All HIAB cranes are constructed of lightweight, high-tensile steel ensuring superior lifting geometry and a better working envelope. The ease of operation and flexibility at the delivery site make HIAB cranes the perfect choice for industrial gas distribution. More versatile than traditional methods, the operator can deliver products in a safe and efficient manner without the need for additional personnel.

Truck Mounted Forklift
Traditionally, packaged gases have been delivered using trucks or trailers equipped with tail lifts. Vehicles equipped with tail lifts require significant manual handling slowing the packaged gas delivery and return process. Additionally, the driver must park as close as possible to the delivery location - often waiting until a parking place becomes available in congested or restricted areas. The MOFFETT truck mounted forklift has changed all of this for the better in the delivery of industrial and specialty gases, gas packs, liquid cylinders and Microbulk. The MOFFETT provides an efficient, safe and customer-friendly delivery solution where everyone’s a winner.

Knuckle Boom Crane Features

HiConnect HiDuo Control System XS Drive nDurance Paint Nationwide Service Team Leading Warranty Semi Automatic Folding Crane Tip Control

HiConnect

Hiab HiConnect™ is a web-based dashboard for medium duty cranes that displays insights on equipment usage, location, time in operation, idle time, and productivity level. By enabling new insights, it helps you to further increase efficiency, productivity, and safety. HiConnect is the latest technology in terms of connectivity capabilities. Being able to remotely access data is key to maximizing your business with facts instead of assumptions. HiConnect maintains constant contact with all units, giving fleet managers the ability to stop unsafe behavior and usage before an incident happens. With the ability to view service history and plan upcoming services, your fleet has minimum downtime and increases daily efficiencies.

HiDuo Control System

The HiDuo control system with XSDrive remote control brings an unprecedented level of safety to operations without reducing performance. This highly flexible system will make your business safer and more profitable with all electronic functions, managed by our SPACE system, which includes Overload Protection (OLP) and Automatic Duty Control (ADC). When approaching an overload condition, the medium crane gives an audible and visual signal at 90% capacity and will stop all radius increasing functions once full capacity has been reached.

XS Drive

The HIAB XSDrive remote control increases efficiency by giving the operator freedom of movement to use the best possible position to view the load. It features two-way communication with the medium duty crane, proportionally controlling movements. The HIAB XSDrive remote control is reliable and worry-free industrial component designed to last the life of the crane.

Nationwide Service Team

We have invested heavily in our Nationwide Service and Support team as part of our commitment to our customers. With 28 branch locations and over 200 factory-trained mobile service technicians, your Hiab loader crane is protected with an unrivaled coast-to-coast service network, greatly reducing the downtime of your equipment, thus reducing overhead costs.

Leading Warranty

Hiab's Leading Warranty exceeds the industry's standard terms because our products are designed to last longer and provide many years of reliable service.

Semi Automatic Folding

Semi Automatic Folding (SAF) simplifies the stowing process reducing it to a single-lever operation, protecting the medium range crane and the truck from damage. It allows a single lever operation to fold and unfold the crane, while activating just one lever, which greatly simplifies this frequent routine operating task.

Crane Tip Control

Crane Tip Control (CTC) is an optional feature available for the 285 and 425 cranes. It allows the crane’s controls to be controlled by three levers – the horizontal extension from the truck, the vertical lift, and the rotation of the crane. CTC provides a simplified operation, reducing training time when onboarding new operators, while allowing operators to perform complex techniques safely and efficiently.

Truck Mounted Forklift Features

Remote Ground Mount Seat Belt Alarm Full Single-Side Off-Loading Four Way Travel Nationwide Service Team Regional Parts Distribution Industry Leading Warranty Hiab HiConnect™

Remote Ground Mount

Remote Ground Mount (RGM) allows the operator to completely mount or dismount the MOFFETT without the need to climb onto or off of an elevated forklift. With up to a 25' range, the wireless remote control allows the operator to stand away from the machine and traffic during the mounting and dismounting process. This means staying out of the line of traffic or other jobsite hazards while giving optimal visibility during the mounting/dismounting process.

Seat Belt Alarm

The seat belt drive-interlock system now has additional alarm options to improve operator safety. The machine is now fitted with alarms, which trigger if the seat belt is not fastened and/or if the side door is not closed in the correct order. The seat presence alarm system is designed to help ensure operators wear the seat belt properly by invoking a 15 second delay if the seatbelt is fastened before the operator enters the seat.

Full Single-Side Off-Loading

Full capacity, single-side offloading is achieved using MOFFETT's Pantograph and patented Lift Assist System™ that allows the forks to reach completely across the deck of the truck or trailer and lift or place a full capacity load, while still maintaining the tilt and side shift functionality of the mast. This eliminates the need to move the truck and trailer from one side of the road to the other to complete the offloading process.

Four Way Travel

Four way steering allows the forklift to operate safely in 4 directions: forward and back as well as left and right. This allows the operator to transport long loads in a much smaller space by carrying the load parallel to travel, eliminating the need to find alternate routes due to obstructions.

Nationwide Service Team

We have invested heavily in our Nationwide Service and Support team as part of our commitment to our customers. With 28 branch locations and over 200 factory-trained mobile service technicians, your MOFFETT is protected with an unrivaled coast-to-coast service network, greatly reducing the downtime of your MOFFETT, thus reducing overhead costs.

Regional Parts Distribution

Our extensive stock of parts at our Regional Distribution Center ensures next-day delivery on almost all items, reducing downtime and saving you money. The same team you trust to deliver high-quality (premium) products to your exact requirements can also be trusted to keep you moving.
