Overview

The newest |RT, ninety tons strong.

The 90|RT slots into Link-Belt’s five-section |RT platform, purpose-built for tight, unimproved sites. Its formed boom telescopes to 155 ft, and with the offsettable bi-fold SmartFly and a 16 ft lattice extension it reaches a 237 ft tip height. V-CALC lets you set outriggers in confined footprints and still know your exact rated capacity in real time.

Every function is orchestrated through Link-Belt Pulse 2.0, a 10-inch touchscreen operating system with an integrated rated capacity limiter, telematics, and Wi-Fi software updates. Four steering modes and 4×2/4×4 drive get it into position; a Cummins QSB6.7 gets it there at up to 15 mph.

Why the 90|RT

The 100|RT’s platform, tuned to ninety.

Pulse 2.0 operating system

10-inch touchscreen with integrated RCL, anti-two-block, real-time load and radius, operator-set alarms, and Wi-Fi updates.

V-CALC outriggers

Variable confined-area lifting: fully extended, intermediate, or retracted footprints with live 360° charts and swing arrest.

SmartFly reach

The 35 to 58 ft bi-fold lattice SmartFly offsets for up-and-over work, and a 16 ft lattice extension stretches tip height to 237 ft.

Four steering modes

Two-wheel front, two-wheel rear, four-wheel, and crab, plus 4×2 and 4×4 drive for off-highway travel.

Telematics standard

Cellular location, usage, maintenance, and fault-code monitoring, so your fleet team sees the machine before it calls in.

Five-section boom

40.6 to 155 ft of formed, extra-high-tensile boom with two extend modes tuned for superior capacity at length.
