Crane can be equipped with ground-engaging tools
The 45-ton, Mantis 9010 telescopic-boom crawler crane is not only a lift crane but can also be equipped by the manufacturer to work with a variety of ground-engaging tools such as augers and pile-driving attachments. Unlike lattice boom cranes or rough terrain cranes, all Mantis cranes are designed with the structural strength to apply downward pressure from the telescopic boom on a variety of tools and attachments.

The 9010 has a very conservatively rated load chart. Its 45-ton rating is at a full 10-foot radius through 360 degrees and it can pick and carry its entire load chart. Unlike rough terrain cranes, it is rated at 75 percent of stability.
