Vehicles from Faymonville. EQUIPMENT
The 3-axle flatbeds type MAX200 will be delivered over the
coming months.These platform trailers, with 22.5 inch tyres and
friction steered axles, can be extended to achieve a platform
length of maximum 21,100 mm, the company said.
The Laso specialists opted for six extra low telescopic MAX200
platforms on 17.5 inch wheels, as well as six new 3-axle semi low
loaders type MAX100 with extendable platform and integrated
wheel recesses.
Laso said that these vehicles are particularly versatile to transport
different types of construction machiry or other freights.
All these new trailers will be used within Europe.
