    A built-in trolley provides stability as these hoists travel along your beam. They can be mounted on fixed beams as well as on cranes with beams. Pull the hand chain to lift and position your load, and the brake will securely hold it in place.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

    Desktop Cranes

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Cranes. Desktop Cranes .
    Mount these cranes to a workbench or utility cart to lift and position loads in tight workspaces. They’re often used in repair or assembly tasks to lift heavy tools and parts. Their compact size makes them easy to move from one base to another. Additional bases are sold separately. Turn the hand wheel clockwise to lift your load. An automatic brake holds your load securely in place when you let go of the wheel. These cranes rotate a full 360°, making it easy to position a load on your workbench or on nearby equipment such as a CNC machine.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
    Roller-Chain Winch

    Lever Lowering Mechanism

    Cranes with a roller chain winch move at a more consistent speed than those with a wire rope winch. Since the roller chain moves around a sprocket, raising loads doesn’t require additional force as you go—unlike wire rope on a spool.
    Lever Lowering Mechanism—Cranes with a lever lowering mechanism require you to release the brake lever next to the hand wheel. As you do, lightly press your palm on the hand wheel to control how fast your load descends.

    Lever Lowering Mechanism

    Hand-Winch Lowering

    Mechanism

    Cranes with a wire rope winch are best for dirty environments because there are no chain links that could trap debris. These cranes also move more smoothly, because there’s less jerking as the wire rope moves around the spool than there is with a roller chain on a sprocket.
    Lever Lowering Mechanism—Cranes with a lever lowering mechanism require you to release the brake lever next to the hand wheel. As you do, lightly press your palm on the hand wheel to control how fast your load descends.
    Hand-Winch Lowering Mechanism—Cranes with a hand-winch lowering mechanism are easier to use and give you more control than cranes that lower with a lever. Simply turn the hand wheel counterclockwise to lower.

    Articulating Desktop Cranes

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Cranes. Articulating Desktop Cranes .
    With two joints that each rotate 360°, these cranes make it easy to position a load exactly where you need it. Unlike standard desktop cranes that swing loads in a circle at a fixed distance, these cranes let you place it almost anywhere within their arm’s reach. Mount them to workbenches and utility carts to save room in tight workspaces. They’re often used to raise heavy tools and parts for repair or assembly. Since they’re compact, they’re easy to move from one base to another. Additional bases are sold separately. Turn the hand wheel clockwise to raise a load and counterclockwise to lower it. An internal brake controls the descent, keeping it slow and steady, and holds the load in place if you let go of the hand wheel.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

    Hand-Winch Cranes

    Also known as davit cranes, these lift objects out of holes such as sewers. An automatic brake holds your load securely when the handle is released.
