More videos

The SQ8SA4 is an 8 ton telescopic boom truck crane. It lifts 8,000 kg at 2.5 m, 4,000 kg at 5 m and 900 kg at its full 14 m reach, with a 20 t·m maximum lifting moment and 360° slewing. The crane itself weighs 3,600 kg and needs 1,100 mm of space behind the cab.

What the 8 ton SQ8SA4 is built for

The SQ8SA4 has a four-section straight boom that runs out from 5.3 m to 14.3 m. It suits medium trucks delivering building materials, steel and precast items, or loading machinery on and off the bed.

Rated capacity always depends on radius. At 8 m the SQ8SA4 lifts 2,000 kg, so check the weight of your heaviest regular load at the distance you need before you choose a tonnage.

Load at each radius

2.5 m 8,000 kg
5 m 4,000 kg
8 m 2,000 kg
11 m 1,300 kg
14 m 900 kg

Figures from the SQ8SA4 load chart with the boom horizontal. Raising the boom shortens the radius and adds capacity: fully extended at 75°, it lifts 2,800 kg at 3.2 m. Download the SQ8SA4 load chart (PDF)

Mounting it on your truck

The SQ8SA4 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 1,100 mm
Outrigger span 2,290–5,990 mm
Width of the crane base 2,470 mm
Hydraulic supply 55 L/min at 26 MPa, about 30 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 SQ8SA4 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.

Choosing the right model

Need more than 8 t? The next class up is the SQ10SA4 at 10 t. For lighter loads, the SQ6.3SA4 at 6.3 t is the class below.

Before ordering, check that the truck's power take-off can deliver 55 L/min at 26 MPa. We recommend 30 kW of hydraulic power. Its self weight of 3600 kg adds to the load on the truck, so allow for it in the payload.
