CIFA presents a new truck-mounted pump model: K36L-5 - where “K” stands for truck mounted pump. Meanwhile, “36” stands for the length in metres of the boom, “L” for Steeltech line (the most customisable and highest-quality line in the product range) and finally “5” for the number of boom sections. The new product is being launched with the slogan “5 arms like never before” to underline the peculiarity of this machine, a novel pump in its size class, thanks to its sophisticated smart boom and light weight.
