The SQ2SA3 is a 2 ton telescopic boom truck crane. It lifts 2,000 kg at 2 m, 1,200 kg at 3.1 m and 250 kg at its full 8.2 m reach, with a 4.2 t·m maximum lifting moment and 360° slewing. The crane itself weighs 950 kg and needs only 650 mm of space behind the cab.
What the 2 ton SQ2SA3 is built for
The SQ2SA3 has a three-section straight boom that runs out from 3.34 m to 8.2 m. It is one of the lightest cranes in the range and suits light trucks: the crane base is 1,880 mm wide and it stands 2,106 mm high when stowed, so most of the bed stays free for cargo. Typical work is delivering building materials, pallets and bagged goods, lifting pumps, generators and small machinery, and roadside and utility maintenance. Raised to 75° with the boom fully extended, the hook reaches about 10 m above the crane base.
Rated capacity always depends on radius. At 5.7 m the SQ2SA3 lifts 550 kg, so check the weight of your heaviest regular load at the distance you need before you choose a tonnage. If your loads must go over walls or into tight spots, compare it with the 2 ton knuckle boom crane.

Figures from the SQ2SA3 load chart with the boom horizontal. Raising the boom shortens the radius and adds capacity: fully extended to 8.5 m at 75°, it lifts 900 kg at 2.1 m. Download the SQ2SA3 load chart (PDF)
Mounting it on your truck
The SQ2SA3 mounts on a truck chassis behind the cab. These are the figures your body builder needs from the dimension drawing:
| Installation space behind the cab |
650 mm |
| Outrigger span |
1,720–3,120 mm |
| Width of the crane base |
1,880 mm |
| Height of the crane when stowed |
2,106 mm |
| Hydraulic supply |
20 L/min at 16 MPa, about 8 kW |
| Oil tank |
35 L |
Send us your truck make, model and wheelbase, and we check that the chassis and power take-off suit the crane before you order. Download the SQ2SA3 dimension drawing (PDF)

Optional attachments
- Hydraulic gripper opened and closed by its own cylinder to grab and release loads.
- Clamshell bucket for loading, unloading and light digging of waste, chippings and soil.
- Orange peel grab for scrap and bulk material.
- Timber grapple for logs and timber.

Certification
The SQ2S series holds a CE certificate of conformity under the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Choosing the right model
Need more than 2 t? The next class up is the SQ3.2SA4 at 3.2 t.
Before ordering, check that the truck's power take-off can deliver 20 L/min at 16 MPa. We recommend 8 kW of hydraulic power. Its self weight of 950 kg adds to the load on the truck, so allow for it in the payload.
