Electric Shop Crane – Lift Easy | Electric Counter Balanced Shop Crane

What Is an Electric Shop Crane?

An electric shop crane — also known as an electric counter balanced shop crane, electric jib crane, electric workshop crane, or battery-powered shop crane — is a self-contained, mobile electro-hydraulic lifting machine used to lift, position, and move heavy machinery, equipment, and components within workshops, factories, warehouses, and industrial maintenance facilities. Unlike fixed overhead cranes or manual hydraulic shop cranes, an electric shop crane is battery-powered and fully mobile on wheels — allowing it to be moved anywhere within a facility without the need for fixed overhead crane infrastructure or manual pump operation.

The Lift Easy Electric Counter Balanced Shop Crane (Model LEESC550) is a professional-grade, battery-powered electro-hydraulic shop crane with a maximum capacity of 550 kg, a 360° rotating single arm, adjustable horizontal reach from 377 mm to 1530 mm, and maximum lifting heights up to 2550 mm. Operated via wireless remote control, the LEESC550 is the trusted electric shop crane solution for machinery installation, maintenance, and load positioning operations across Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.

Description

The Lift Easy Electric Counter Balanced Shop Crane LEESC550 is a heavy-duty, battery-powered electro-hydraulic lifting machine engineered for safe, efficient, and precise load lifting and positioning in demanding workshop, factory, and industrial maintenance environments across the GCC. The electro-hydraulic drive system — powered by a 12V/80Ah on-board battery and a 0.8 kW electric pump station — delivers smooth, controlled arm raising and lowering via a wireless remote control, allowing the operator to maintain a safe distance from the load throughout the entire lifting operation.

The counter-balanced design uses a rear-mounted weight box to offset the load on the lifting arm — ensuring the crane remains stable and safe even at maximum horizontal reach positions. This counter-balance principle is the key engineering feature that distinguishes the LEESC550 electric shop crane from standard manual hydraulic shop cranes and provides the structural stability required for safe heavy load operations in workshops, machinery halls, and maintenance bays across Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.

The 360° rotating frame — mounted on a precision rotary bearing with a 1720 mm base rotation radius — allows the single lifting arm to swing freely in any direction, providing complete workshop coverage from a single crane position. The horizontal reach is adjustable across five positions from 377 mm to 1530 mm, with corresponding maximum lifting heights ranging from 1960 mm (at 377 mm reach) up to 2550 mm (at 1530 mm reach). This variable reach and height configuration makes the LEESC550 one of the most versatile electric shop cranes available to workshops, fabrication yards, and maintenance facilities across the GCC.

The four-wheel mobile base — fitted with Ø200 mm wheels and rear wheel brakes — allows the entire crane to be manoeuvred freely across workshop floors, loading bays, and industrial yards. The rear wheels lock securely during lifting operations to prevent movement, while the rotating locking device secures the arm in position during crane travel.

The hand drop switch provides a manual lowering backup in the event of battery depletion, ensuring the load can always be safely lowered even without battery power. The electricity meter with red/green indicator allows the operator to monitor battery status at all times — when the meter shows fewer than 3 red scale indicators, the crane should be connected to the 220V/50Hz charger immediately. Charging time is typically 8–10 hours for a full charge.

As a trusted electric shop crane supplier, distributor, and manufacturer in Dubai, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait, Lift Easy delivers professional-grade electro-hydraulic lifting solutions backed by full technical support, operator manuals, and regional after-sales service.

Use of the Product

• Move the shop crane to the required position and engage the rear wheel brakes to lock the crane in place
• Loosen the rotating locking device and rotate the single arm to the required working position
• Pull up the red emergency stop switch, turn on the key switch, and verify the electricity meter shows adequate battery charge
• Press the up button on the remote control to raise the lifting arm to the required height — release to stop at any position
• Attach the load to the safety-clasp hook and lift to the required height using the remote control up button
• Rotate the arm and traverse the crane to the deposit position — keep movements slow and lock the rotating device during crane travel
• Press the down button on the remote control to lower the load precisely to the deposit position — use the down speed regulating valve for fine speed control
• After operation, lower the arm to minimum, activate the emergency stop, remove the key, and lock the rotating device and wheel brakes
