With their Merlo these Yellows Angels fear nothing!
April 2007
“With our Merlos we are afraid of nothing!” says Rolf Moll in Stockach near Basel.
Starting in business by towing trucks and cars in the Bodensee area, Herr Moll has developed his firm into a transport company and is charged with rescuing distressed motorists, the yellow ADAC vehicles are known throughout Germany as the ‘Yellow Angels’. Moll provides vehicles for ADAC and were called out when a truck load of apples overturned, blocking the nearby motorway junction at Stockach-Ost.
The turnout was a 17m P40.17 equipped with a bucket, which proceeded to collect the spilled load and assist up righting the truck in no time.
“At first, people laughed to see such a machine in use” says Moll, “But now they all see what an amazingly flexible tool they are. Last year we used one to erect carnival lighting - and even pollarded trees!”
Like so many users, Moll prizes Merlo versatility, even using attachments from local dealer when needed.
