"Our Bin Crane is faster than bin jacks because you merely lift the bin with the winch as you add each ring," says Marvin Baumle, manufacturer, Kelsey, Alta.
The 45-ft. bin crane can lift up to 8,000 lbs. with a 12-volt electric or hydraulic winch. The bin is lifted by attaching the lift cable to a tripod hook or tire. It's capable of setting a 5,000 bu. bin onto a hopper bottom.
The crane pulls easily behind a 1/2-ton pickup and lowers to 14 ft. for road transport. It'll raise up to 45 ft. for building bins, setting rafters, lifting machinery, or any lifting chore. Axles extend from 9 ft. to 14 ft. in width for extra stability.
The 45-Ft. Bin Crane also comes in a smaller 35-ft. model.
