Save your back from loading toolboxes, generators, and other heavy items into your truck. These cranes slide right into your hitch—no need to modify your vehicle to mount them. Designed with an offset, you can lower the tailgate fully with the crane installed. Mount the crane to lift from the right or the left side of the truck depending on your task. Also known as davit cranes, they have a hand winch to raise the load, and an automatic brake holds the load securely when you release the handle.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

Install these bases in different areas of your plant and slot in your hand-winch crane where needed. They can also be used to replace existing bases.

Stainless steel bases are more corrosion resistant than steel bases.

These cranes are half the weight of other hand-winch cranes with similar capacity and can be lifted from their base for easy transport. They're also known as davit cranes. Use them to lift objects out of holes such as sewers. Made from fiberglass, all are corrosion resistant and nonconductive. An automatic brake holds your load securely when the handle is released.

Install additional bases throughout your plant and move your hand-winch crane between them to use a single crane in multiple locations. They can also be used to replace existing bases.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

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.

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. 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.

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. 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.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

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.

With no legs in front, these cranes let you lift close to your load. Also known as engine cranes, a hydraulic hand pump raises and lowers the arm (boom) to lift items without the need for a hoist.

Repair kits contain hydraulic components subject to wear such as O-rings, gaskets, and seals.

Easily maneuver tight spaces and precisely position loads. These cranes don’t have front legs that could get in the way as they move or pick up a load. The hydraulic pump is battery powered, giving you greater control over a load than a crane where you’d have to pump the hydraulics yourself. The battery also means you can effortlessly lift heavy loads in places where there isn’t access to a power outlet. Manually adjust the arm to four different positions to extend its reach. These cranes have an emergency stop button that quickly prevents them from moving any further if there's a risk of collision. Lock the caster wheels to keep them from rolling when they shouldn’t. Also known as counterbalance cranes.

An extension cord is required to recharge the battery.

No hand-cranking needed—simply push a button on the handheld control to lift or lower a heavy load. These cranes are also known as davit cranes. The automatic brake holds your load securely in place when you’re not moving it up or down. For precise positioning in all directions, these cranes rotate a full 360°. The arm can be adjusted to four different heights depending on your needs.

Electric-powered cranes work well for long-running jobs because there’s no battery to worry about. They plug into an electrical outlet.

Battery-powered cranes work in locations without electrical outlets. Use the wire leads to connect them to a 12V DC battery (not included).

Install additional bases throughout your facility to make it easy to use your crane in different spots. Make sure the maximum capacity of your crane matches the capacity of the base you choose.

Headache balls keep the cable taut when there’s no load, making the crane more stable for safety.

Note: Capacity is highest for the first layer of rope and decreases as each additional layer of rope is wound on the winch. There are at least five wraps of rope on the winch.
