The 100tonnes capacity class Roadmaster 5300 Truck Mounted Crane is said by 1222 Terex to have an innovative superstructure and outrigger frame which allows it to be mounted on a commercially-built, rather than a custom, five-axle truck chassis. Not only is this said to lower the purchase cost, it also reduces operational cost due to lower tire wear, lower fuel consumption and servicing availability.

The Roadmaster can be configured to be fully street legal when carrying 8.15tonnes of counterweight. It can also be used as a one-man crane.
