8 Ton Knuckle Boom Truck Mounted Crane SQ8ZA4

More videos

The SQ8ZA4 is an 8 ton knuckle boom truck crane. It lifts 8,000 kg at 2 m, 3,700 kg at 4.461 m and 1,420 kg at its full 10.515 m reach, with a maximum lifting moment of 16.7 t·m and 360° slewing. The crane itself weighs 3,050 kg.

What the 8 ton SQ8ZA4 is built for

The SQ8ZA4 folds its boom into a compact package behind the cab: stowed, it is 2,460 mm wide and 2,340 mm high. It takes about 1,031 mm of chassis length behind the cab. It suits heavy trucks handling steel, precast concrete and machinery, and building sites where loads must be set down well away from the truck.

Rated capacity always depends on radius. At 8.465 m the SQ8ZA4 lifts 1,820 kg and at 10.515 m it lifts 1,420 kg, so check the weight of your heaviest regular load at the distance you need before you choose a tonnage.

Mounting it on your truck

Your body builder mounts the crane on the chassis behind the cab, using these figures from the dimension drawing:

Crane length along the chassis	1,031 mm
Outrigger span	2,310–5,610 mm
Width of the crane when stowed	2,460 mm
Height of the crane when stowed	2,340 mm
Hydraulic supply	40 L/min at 28 MPa, about 25 kW
Oil tank	160 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 SQ8ZA4 dimension drawing (PDF)

Warranty and service

BOB-LIFT covers the whole crane for 12 months. Common spare parts leave the factory within 48 hours, and our service team answers within 12 hours and can guide repairs by video. Cranes ship from Lianyungang, Qingdao or Shanghai.

8 Ton Knuckle Boom Truck Mounted Crane

More videos

The SQ8ZA6 is one of 18 models in our Knuckle Boom Truck Mounted Cranes range, which runs from 1.6 t to 50 t.

The SQ8ZA6 is an 8 ton knuckle boom truck crane. It lifts 8,000 kg at 2 m, 3,700 kg at 4.51 m and 850 kg at its full 14.68 m reach, with a 16 t·m maximum lifting moment and 360° slewing. The crane itself weighs 3,450 kg.

What the 8 ton SQ8ZA6 is built for

The SQ8ZA6 folds its six-section boom into a compact package behind the cab: stowed, it is 2,460 mm wide and 2,340 mm high, so most of the truck bed stays free for cargo. Unfolded, the knuckle joint lets the boom reach over a wall, a stack of material or a parked vehicle and set the load down at a low angle, which suits delivering blocks, steel and building materials to sites, loading machinery, and utility and maintenance work. Raised to 84°, the hook reaches about 17 m.

Rated capacity always depends on radius. At 8.51 m the SQ8ZA6 lifts 1,820 kg and at 10.56 m it lifts 1,420 kg, so check the weight of your heaviest regular load at the distance you need before you choose a tonnage. The SQ8ZA6+1 version adds one manual jib section for 16.8 m maximum radius and 650 kg at full reach, at 3,500 kg self weight. If you need a straight boom instead, the 8 ton telescopic boom crane is in the same class.

8 Ton Knuckle Boom Truck Mounted Crane SQ8ZA6+1

More videos

The SQ8ZA6+1 is one of 18 models in our Knuckle Boom Truck Mounted Cranes range, which runs from 1.6 t to 50 t.

The SQ8ZA6+1 is an 8 ton knuckle boom truck crane: the six-section SQ8ZA6 with a manual jib on its last boom. It lifts 8,000 kg at 2 m, 3,700 kg at 4.506 m and 650 kg at its full 16.8 m reach with the jib extended, with a maximum lifting moment of 16.7 t·m and 360° slewing. The crane itself weighs 3,500 kg.

What the manual jib adds

The +1 in the model name is a manual jib: an extra boom section that the operator extends by hand and pins when a job needs more reach. It takes the reach from 14.68 m on the hydraulic booms to 16.8 m, and with the boom raised to 84° the hook reaches about 19 m above the ground. The jib adds about 50 kg, so the crane weighs 3,500 kg against 3,450 kg for the SQ8ZA6.

Stowed, the SQ8ZA6+1 is 2,460 mm wide and 2,340 mm high and takes about 1,153 mm of chassis length behind the cab. It suits heavy trucks handling steel, precast concrete and machinery, and building sites where loads must be set down well away from the truck.

Rated capacity always depends on radius. At 8.51 m the SQ8ZA6+1 lifts 1,820 kg and at 12.63 m it lifts 1,160 kg, so check the weight of your heaviest regular load at the distance you need before you choose a tonnage.

03 What hydraulic power does the SQ8ZA4 need?

40 L/min at 28 MPa, about 25 kW, usually taken from the truck's power take-off. The crane carries a 160 L oil tank and weighs 3,050 kg, so allow for the crane and its oil in your payload calculation.

04 What warranty comes with the SQ8ZA4?

12 months on the whole crane, with common spare parts dispatched within 48 hours.

05 How far can the SQ8ZA4 reach, and how far does it slew?

With every section unfolded it works out to 10.515 m and still holds 1,420 kg there, and the column turns through 360°. Park so that your heaviest regular load sits inside the radius the chart allows.
