K23-33 City

The K23-33 City has been one of the most popular trailer cranes from Klaas for many years. With a hook height of 33 m and a lateral reach of 23 m at a load capacity of 250 kg, the aluminum crane offers an impressive working radius for versatile use on the construction site.

The K23-33 City is particularly flexible due to its quick conversion: Within a few minutes, the crane can be transformed into a work platform without tools, enabling safe and efficient work at height.
Thanks to the integrated self-drive system, the crane can be precisely positioned even in confined spaces. The retractable drawbar shortens the overall length to just 7 m, further facilitating use in hard-to-reach or inner-city areas.

As a single-axle trailer with a dead weight of only 3.5 t, the K23-33 City also impresses with excellent maneuverability and particularly simple handling on tight construction sites.

Features

Drive variant:
Support

Support

  • Fully hydraulic support with ASC support monitoring enables continuously variable support widths – also in the discharge direction
  • Maximum flexibility in the setup for optimal use of space and load-bearing capacity
  • massive L-shaped outrigger form for maximum tipping stability
  • Outriggers without sub-construction thanks to long, vertical cylinders
Automatic setup

Automatic setup

  • faster and easier setup of the crane via radio remote control
  • continuous lateral extension of each individual outrigger
  • Automatic leveling of the support cylinders for optimal construction even on uneven surfaces
  • Permanent pressure monitoring automatically adapts to changing external conditions
double luffing cylinders

double luffing cylinders

  • torsion-resistant lifting of the boom thanks to two luffing cylinders
  • double cylinders for double safety
  • Improved reception of lateral guides for a more stable and calmer stand of the boom
infinitely rotatable

infinitely rotatable

  • high-quality slewing ring from German brand manufacturing
  • The well-designed rotation mechanism allows for endless rotation of the upper carriage in both directions
Self-propelled drive

Self-propelled drive

  • Operation of the hydraulic self-drive system via the standard remote control
  • easy and precise maneuvering in confined spaces
retractable drawbar

retractable drawbar

  • Reduction of the total length from 9.25 m to 7.00 m
  • allows setup even with limited space
Mast system

Mast system

  • extremely strong and weather-resistant special aluminum alloy with low dead weight
  • No loss of strength in the weld seam thanks to friction stir welding – the joints are as tight as the solid material
  • Klaas' typical hole pattern reduces wind attack surfaces, minimizes dead weight, and ensures high buckling stiffness
  • Movable cables are integrated into the mast and therefore optimally protected
  • low-maintenance hydraulic piping eliminates the need for complex hydraulic hose changes
Folding pointed joint

Folding pointed joint

  • The joint plate is milled „from a solid material“, thus enabling higher load capacities
  • Electronic monitoring in the joint guarantees optimal load absorption in every angular position
  • Double folding pointed cylinders for additional safety and protection against lateral forces
Telescopic winch

Telescopic winch

  • Rapid telescoping under load thanks to patented Klaas rope technology
  • Integrated electronic length measurement records the current mast extension length and calculates the maximum possible load capacity
  • low dead weight of the ropes increases outreach and load capacity
  • low-maintenance and easily accessible rope technology
