The GR-1200XL is now the largest 2-axle crane in the company's rough terrain range. It offers a maximum lifting capacity of 120 tons and has a boom of 183.7 ft. Extra reach is provided by a jib which extends the lifting height to 241.4 ft, with a load radius of 153.8 ft. The crane was developed for industrial energy sites, especially in North America where high manoeuvrability, durability and lifting performance under tough conditions are critical.

The GR-1200XL also features Tadano's new Smart Chart system that allows the crane to achieve a square-shaped rated load capacity footprint as opposed to the conventional circular-rated load capacity footprint for extended working footprint.

The crane comes with Tadano's Eco-Mode fuel monitoring system and Positive control system, which reduce fuel consumption in operation and on standby. It also has the Hello-Net telematics system for remote monitoring.
