FAQs

Does this crane require a professional to install?

No, it comes in a kit form intended for standard assembly by the user with basic hand tools.

What is the maximum height of the crane?

The maximum lifting height reaches up to 2360mm when the jib is fully extended.

Can I use this on gravel or dirt floors?

No, it is highly recommended to use this crane only on hard, level concrete surfaces for maximum safety and stability.

Is this product CE approved?

Yes, the AB Tools 2-Ton Engine Crane is fully CE approved for safety standards.

How do I change the jib settings?

The jib uses a pin-and-hole locking system. Remove the safety pin, slide the jib to your desired capacity setting, and re-insert the pin securely.

How much does the crane weigh?

While the weight varies slightly by manufacturing batch, it is a heavy-duty steel unit, so ensure you have assistance when moving it out of the box.

Troubleshooting

The boom will not lift under load

Check the hydraulic release valve to ensure it is fully closed and verify there is sufficient hydraulic fluid in the pump.

The crane feels unstable when moving

Ensure all six wheels are free of debris and the load is centered directly under the hook. Avoid moving the crane over uneven surfaces or cracks.

Hydraulic ram is leaking

Cease operation immediately. Inspect the seals for damage or debris and contact a professional for a hydraulic seal kit replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High 2-ton maximum lifting capacity for heavy machinery
  • Compact folding design maximizes storage efficiency
  • Durable powder-coated steel resists corrosion
  • Six-wheel configuration provides excellent stability and movement
  • Adjustable jib allows for precise weight and reach control

Cons

  • Heavy base requires a solid, level surface for safe operation
  • Folding mechanism requires space clearance to operate
  • Requires assembly upon arrival

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup is vital for safety. Ensure all bolts are fully tightened before the first use and check that the hydraulic cylinder is free of air bubbles by priming the pump.

Compatibility: This crane is compatible with most passenger and light commercial vehicle engines. Always verify the weight of the engine or machinery against the crane’s current jib setting before attempting a lift.

Maintenance:

  • Periodically inspect the hydraulic hoses and seals for leaks.
  • Keep the wheel axles clean and lubricated to ensure smooth movement.
  • Regularly check the powder-coated frame for chips; touch up any exposed metal with rust-preventative paint to maintain the integrity of the finish.
  • Always store the unit in its folded position in a dry, covered area to protect the hydraulics from moisture.
