Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this quality product. To minimise the risk of injury we urge that our clients
take some basic safety precautions when using this device. Please read the operation instruc-
tions carefully and make sure you have understood its content.
Keep these operation instructions safe.
This foldable workshop crane possesses a maximum lifting capacity of 2 tons and has been designed
for lifting and holding light truck and car engines. To be able to lift such weights, the crane requires a
leveller and/or chains. However, please be aware that neither the leveller nor the chains are included in
the scope of delivery. After loading an engine onto the crane, make sure to place it onto an adequate
stand as quickly as possible.

Safety instructions
•Make sure to keep your work environment clean and ensure that it is well-lit. Working in cluttered
and insufficiently lit working areas drastically increases the risk of injury.
•Pay attention to the local labour standards as well as the conditions of your work place. Do not
use the product within wet or storage areas and do not expose it to rain.
•Children are by no means allowed to enter the working area and must be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the device.
•When not in use, store the product in a dry environment to avoid the formation of rust. Further
ensure that the stored crane is inaccessible to children as well as unauthorised persons.
•This item has been designed for a certain purpose and can therefore safely and quickly deal
with the intended tasks if used within its intended use. Do not modify the device, do not divert it
from its intended use, and only use it with a speed appropriate for it.
•Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, as they can get stuck inside the moving parts of the
device and thereby cause severe injuries. It is recommended to wear protective, electrically
non-conductive clothes as well as non-skid footwear equipped with steel toe caps.
•Do not overestimate your abilities and do not take any risks. Further ensure to always have a
secure footing and to be capable of always keeping your balance.
•Keep your tools and devices clean to warrant a secure and correct functionality. Abide to the
rules and guidelines described in this manual.
•Do no operate tools or machines if tired or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medicine.
Stay alert while using this product to minimise the risk of injury.
•Carefully check the product before every use and make sure that it is undamaged to further
minimise the risk of injury. Do not use this device if parts are damaged or not working correctly.
•Only use identical and original spare parts. Attachments and accessories used must be specif-
ically intended for this device.
•Always make sure to properly secure the load in a way that it can neither shift nor slip off, and
never lift objects over people. Unsecured or badly secured loads can lead to severe injuries and
even death.
•Never exceed the maximum lifting capacity of the crane and be aware of potential weight shifts
due to moving load. A load swinging or suddenly jerking at the chain may lead to a temporary
increase in weight. This might cause in turn the crane or load to be damaged and can even be
the cause of severe injuries.
•Maintenance must be performed regularly to guarantee the secure and correct function of the
device. However, it should only be performed by specially trained personnel. In case of ques-
tions contact the producer or a qualified person.
•Note that this product is not suited for lifting aircraft engines or other aircraft parts.

•Do not try to move the crane while it is carrying weight with its boom in a raised position, as this
shift in weight greatly increases risk of the crane tipping over.
•Only use the crane on an even surface capable of withstanding the weight to avoid cave-ins
and inadvertent rolling. This minimises the swinging of the load at the same time, which in turn
minimises the risk of injury.
•Make sure that no one else is standing in the path of the crane when moving the same.

Application
•To raise the boom extension, close release valve of the hydraulic cylinder. Then attach the lever
to the hydraulic cylinder and utilise it by pumping until the boom extension has reached the
desired height.
•The boom length can be extended by removing the bolt and the nut placed in the same, before
pulling the boom extension out until the pre-drilled holes overlap. Now reinsert the bolt and
secure it with the appropriate nut.
•WARNING! The maximum lifting capacity of the crane must not be exceeded. Infringement can
lead to severe damage and injuries. Please be aware that the maximum lifting capacity de-
creases with an increasing boom length.
•Position the crane in a way that the object to be lifted is placed directly beneath the hook.

•By slightly opening the release valve the hook can be lowered, before the item you want to lift
can then be attached to the hook. Once the item has been attached to the hook, make sure that
the safety latch of the hook is completely closed. The close the release valve and utilise the
lever to raise the boom.
•Exercise extreme caution when lifting loads, ensure that they have been secured appropriately
and make sure that they do not swing. Inappropriately secured or swinging loads carry an in-
creased risk of falling off the hook.
•Once the item has been lifted out of its mount, lower the boom to be able to slowly and carefully
transport the item.
Maintenance
•Always make sure to check the entire device before each use to ensure that the crane is in
pristine condition.
•Make sure that the hook and chain are clean and thereby free from grease, dirt, and debris.
•In case the hydraulic system of the crane does not operate correctly, air might have entered the
same. Please abide to the following steps to remove the air from the system:
◦First make sure that the boom is in its home position (the boom is completely lowered).
◦Remove the oil fill plug and pour some additional hydraulic oil into the tank.
◦Now begin to pump until the boom has reached its maximum height.
◦Open the release valve and press the boom down until the cylinder has been completely
retracted.
◦Add some more hydraulic oil and reinsert the oil fill plug.
◦Repeat these steps if necessary.
•We advise the use of a wet towel in combination and a mild detergent for cleaning purposes.
•In case of a decrease of lifting capacity, please check the device's oil level and replenish it if
necessary.
