Step 3: How much Lifting Capacity do you require?

Lastly, the most critical factor in deciding which crane you need depends on the maximum weight you plan on lifting.

Within each crane Series, we have various models of different lifting capacities. Each crane is structurally designed to operate to that capacity and no more than that capacity. Thus, this becomes the most crucial element in deciding which specific crane is right for you.
