5 Ton Knuckle Boom Truck Mounted Crane

5-Ton Knuckle Boom Truck-Mounted Crane (F105K-03)

Lifting operations in cramped urban environments often face space constraints, making it difficult for most lifting equipment to maneuver flexibly around obstacles. Buyers often struggle to choose between telescopic boom cranes and knuckle boom cranes, while also worrying about excessive equipment weight or chassis compatibility issues. The F105K-03 knuckle boom crane addresses these challenges with a compact, lightweight design and a stable hydraulic system, offering a flexible lifting solution for restricted work sites and enabling precise material handling and aerial operations. Key specifications include a maximum lifting capacity of 5,000 kg, a maximum lifting moment of 10.5 ton-m, and a 400° slewing angle. It weighs only 1,850 kg, requires just 1,050 mm of mounting space, and offers a maximum working radius of 8,050 mm (with a rated load of 5,000 kg at a 2,100 mm radius). The hydraulic system operates at 28 MPa with a flow rate of 35 L/min. Beyond truck-mounted applications, we offer a wide range of models—including ship-mounted telescopic and knuckle boom cranes, grab machines, and forestry cranes—suitable for diverse scenarios such as logistics, road maintenance, and construction sites.

Product Features

1. Features a folding multi-joint boom design and a wide 400° slewing range, allowing for obstacle avoidance in tight spaces; suitable for installation on medium-duty trucks.

2. Supports a wide range of optional accessories—including remote controls, hydraulic winches, grabs, man baskets, oil coolers, manual extensions, boom extensions, and load moment limiters—to expand operational capabilities.

Tips

1. When selecting a model, compare the operational characteristics of telescopic boom cranes versus knuckle boom cranes: choose a straight-boom (telescopic) crane for open-area, long-distance lifting, and opt for this knuckle boom crane for cramped urban environments. 2. Before installation, verify the truck chassis's load-bearing capacity and select an optional load moment limiter; ensure outriggers are fully extended before operation to guarantee safety.

FAQ

Q1: What are the key points for routine maintenance of this crane?

A1: Regularly check hydraulic fluid levels and cleanliness, replace seals on schedule, and ensure proper lubrication of outriggers and pivot points. Avoid hydraulic system overheating and overloading; installing an optional cooler can extend continuous operation time.

Q2: Does the equipment support remote operation? What is the lead time for spare parts?

A2: Remote control systems are available as an option. Common wear parts and hydraulic components are kept in stock; spare part kits can be supplied alongside overseas orders to reduce maintenance wait times.

Q3: How do the application scenarios for this model differ from marine knuckle boom cranes or ship telescopic boom cranes?

A3: This is a truck-mounted model designed for road vehicles. Marine knuckle boom and ship telescopic boom cranes feature enhanced corrosion resistance and sealing to withstand deck environments with salt spray; they are not directly interchangeable.

Q4: Can it be fitted with attachments such as a grab or a forestry grapple (for timber handling)?

A4: It can be modified with grab-type attachments for handling bulk materials or timber as needed. However, the attachment's dead weight must be checked against the rated load curve to ensure operation remains within safe load limits.
