RIMA small truck crane / 1.5ton pick up crane for car (with hydraulic power pack)

The RL130 pick-up crane has a rated maximum lifting capacity of 1.5 tons (approximately 1,500 kg). Actual safe lifting capacity depends on boom extension/outreach — always consult the crane's load chart before lifting.

The lifting moment (1.7 T.M) describes the crane's maximum moment (load × distance) it can safely handle. It indicates how weight capacity decreases as outreach increases. For precise capacities at each extension, refer to the supplied load chart.

'2H + 2M' refers to the crane's telescoping/section configuration listed by the manufacturer. It indicates multiple boom sections (a combination of hydraulic and manual/secondary sections). For exact extension lengths and operation of each section, check the detailed product datasheet or ask your supplier.

The hydraulic pack is listed as optional. You can order the crane with or without the hydraulic power pack — contact the supplier to choose the correct power pack type (electric, petrol, or vehicle-driven options may be available) and to confirm what is included.

The crane has a swing angle of 330° (nearly full rotation). The maximum recommended working slope is 5°. Always operate the crane on as level a surface as possible and follow the manufacturer's stability and outrigger instructions.

The crane weighs approximately 300 kg. Due to this weight, shipment and unloading usually require a forklift, crane, or suitable lifting equipment and proper rigging — plan accordingly.

The RIMA small truck crane is designed for installation on pick-up trucks and light vehicles with sufficiently reinforced beds or mounting plates. Compatibility depends on the vehicle's payload rating, chassis strength, and available mounting points. Have a qualified technician verify your vehicle before installation.

Mounting typically involves bolting the crane to a reinforced mounting plate or directly to a vehicle's frame/cargo bed structure. Proper installation should be performed by a qualified installer and may require reinforcing the truck bed and ensuring the vehicle's GVWR and payload capacity are not exceeded.

Regular maintenance includes inspecting fasteners and mounts, checking hydraulic hoses and fluid levels, lubricating pivot points and bearings, inspecting the boom and hook assembly for wear or deformation, and testing controls. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule and use recommended hydraulic fluids and replacement parts.

Operators should be trained and, where required by local regulations, certified. Always use the crane's load chart, never exceed rated capacities, ensure stable/level ground, use appropriate slings and lifting gear, stay clear of suspended loads, and follow lockout/tagout procedures when servicing. Use any provided safety devices (limit switches, overload protection) and inspect the crane before each use.

Spare parts and after-sales service availability depend on the supplier/dealer. Ask your supplier about available spare parts (hydraulic seals, pins, hoses, hooks, etc.), recommended service centers, and lead times before purchase.

Common accessories for pick-up cranes include hydraulic power packs (if not included), mounting plates, remote controls, lifting hooks and slings, stabilizing outriggers, and protective covers. Check with your supplier for compatible accessories for the RL130.

Lifting capacity decreases as the boom extends. The crane's maximum 1.5‑ton rating applies at or near the shortest outreach; at greater extension the safe load will be lower. Always consult the crane's specific load chart for capacity at each boom position.

The crane is built for typical outdoor industrial and vehicle applications. Hydraulic performance can be affected by extreme temperatures (very cold or hot), so follow manufacturer guidance for hydraulic fluids and warm-up procedures. For use in extreme environments, confirm specifications with your supplier.

Warranty terms and certifications (CE, ISO, etc.) vary by supplier and market. Ask your dealer for the specific warranty period, warranty scope, and any applicable conformity certificates or compliance documentation for your region.
