As the previous crane ideas i posted were quite expensive and being the 'finance officer', i have come across a much cheaper alternative. this is basically used as a engine hoist/portable crane.
the benifts of this design are:
- weighs only 103kg - can be carried in a toyota Landcruiser which has a maximum payload of ~680 Kg.
- 4 Positions 500kg , 1000kg , 1500kg , 2000kg .
- 8 Ton Heavy Duty Ram Giving 2 Ton Lifting Capacity.
- 1/2 Ton Lift At Full Extension.
- Heavy Duty Steel Construction.
- Adjustable Jib Up To 1600mm Long.
- Folds Up For Storage And Easy To Erect.
- Six Heavy Duty Wheels For Easy Mobility.
- Includes chain and hook.
- Size When Open Approx Width: 630mm Length: 2335mm Height: 1560mm
let me look into this further and i will keep you posted....
I like this Idea, I think we need to work on design specifications now. vic
