By the seventies there was a range of Speedcranes from the smallest 3 Ton to the largest 7 Ton. This range gradually in increased in capacity upto ten tons, lifts above this required a larger machine and was taken up by the Hydra lorry crane range which began with the ten tone machine. Below is a list of the range produced from 1969 until 1981.
