Key Features

Strong, Stable, Durable, and Portable

The Thrifty American Standard steel 5-ton fixed-height gantry crane is a portable, strong, stable, and durable crane that can be used for indoor and outdoor commercial and industrial applications. It is ideal for situations when heavy lifting capacity and quick and easy assembly and disassembly need to happen at the same time.

Thrifties have no brace legs and extra support in the form of gussets. This allows them to span a wider area – have a wider clear span (D) – than their adjustable-height counterparts. Without brace legs, the fixed-height Thrifty crane is a strong, lighter-weight alternative to our Tri-Adjustable models. The use of American Standard steel makes it an ideal combination of strength, stability, and portability.

  • The Thrifty is built using our patented pinned-joint design resulting in a longer-lasting, better-fitting, more flexible crane that is quick and easy to assemble and disassemble.
  • Strong rectangular-tube steel posts and frames.
  • The exclusive Wallace I-beam support system aligns off-center loads to avoid distortion of the crane and trolley.
  • Casters are equipped with a 4-position swivel lock. When locked 90 degrees with each other, they position the crane more firmly than a brake.
  • Fixed-height models can have customized heights.
  • Completely portable.
  • Designed to roll under load.

Assembly and Disassembly Instructions

Cautions

  1. Make sure that all CAUTION labels and safety tags are in place and legible.
  2. Inspect that rated capacity is plainly marked on each side of I-Beam.
  3. Each hoisting unit shall have its rated load clearly marked and legible from ground or floor.

Before You Begin

  1. Clear an open area at least as large as 2 X the frame length and wider than the beam.
  2. Get a crane or lifting device capable of lifting the entire weight of the completed crane.
  3. Assemble a work crew of no less than three. One will operate the lifting crane and the others perform the assembly. You may need
    more to lift the higher-capacity legs.
