Tips On How To Safely Operate Your Mini Crane

Although many crane operators know how to properly operate a mini crane, crane accidents happen too often. Maybe because they do not pay too much or underestimate the size of the mini cranes, however, there are many precautions they can undertake in order to increase the safety of the operation. Here are my tips how to safely operate your mini crane.

Why 400kg Ute Cranes?

Ute cranes are the most efficient cranes for lighter lifting applications. With small lifting capacity, ute cranes are the perfect addition for farmers, tradesmen and delivery drivers, to name a few. Ute cranes provide quick lifts and make the loading and unloading just as easy as its size seems. They can be easily integrated into a deck of a truck, so the operators will have a high power-to-weight ratio. The weight of ute cranes allows easy transportation. There are many different types of ute cranes and their main difference is the lifting capacity. The suggested lifting capacity of ute cranes is 400k.

Ute cranes with lifting capacity of 400kg allows effortless hoisting of heavy items onto the vehicles of the farmers or tradesmen. They are usually lightweight and spare the operators from back sores by providing quick lifts of objects that weight up to 400kg. These ute cranes are usually capable to fully rotate for 360 degrees and require only one operator for installing, transporting, operating and removal. Most commonly, the ute cranes with such capacity are mounted on trucks, because of their versatility and capabilities.

Most ute cranes with 400kg lifting capacity feature a pivot tube adaptor and a crane jib of about 10kg, which are permanently fixed, or stowed away in order to leave more free floor space. Both parts are mounted in a specific plate, bolted directly to the trucks, allowing only one person to operate the ute crane. Usually, ute cranes are made from structural aluminium and are anodized in order to be corrosion resistant. So, to set up a ute crane of this type the operators might need 1 minute maximum from folded position. Thanks to their mounting options, these ute cranes can be utilized anywhere a lift is needed.

Last, but not the least, 400kg ute cranes must feature stabilizers. They need a support underneath, especially when lifting loads heavier than 100kg. With all these features and options in mind, it is easy to see why 400kg ute cranes are the worthiest investment a contractor can make.
