The Kato CR200 is a rough terrain crane with a maximum lifting capacity of 20 tons, making it a formidable choice for various applications, particularly in constrained or uneven job sites. Its optimal use case is in projects such as construction, infrastructure development, and small to medium-sized industrial projects where mobility and adaptability are key. Given its rough terrain capabilities, it excels in sites that are difficult to navigate, such as uneven, muddy, or off-road environments, ensuring that lifting operations can be conducted smoothly and efficiently in conditions where other cranes might struggle.

With a maximum lifting capacity of 20 tons, the Kato CR200 offers robust performance in terms of lifting heavy loads. It often comes with a powerful engine and robust tires designed to traverse challenging terrains, enhancing its suitability for diverse operational needs. Its boom length is also a notable feature, allowing it to reach considerable heights and radii, which enhances its versatility in handling different lifting tasks. The Kato CR200 is designed with mobility in mind, ensuring that it can be maneuvered with ease on the job site, thus facilitating smoother operations and transitions between different lifting tasks.

Operating a Kato CR200 in Australia requires compliance with national and local regulations to ensure safety and operational efficiency. The operator must possess a valid High Risk Work Licence (HRWL) with the appropriate class of licence, such as a class for mobile crane operation (CN, C1, C6, C2, C0), which corresponds to the crane’s capacity and type. Operators should also have undergone formal training and assessment to ensure competence in safely operating the crane under various conditions. Additionally, operators are expected to adhere to Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) guidelines and practices, including conducting regular maintenance checks, ensuring the operational readiness of the crane, and ensuring the safety of the working environment and the people involved in the operation.
