Used 50-Ton Mobile Crane for Sale in Nigeria: What to Check

A used 50-ton mobile crane can cost far less than a new one and still do years of work, provided you check it properly.

The rated tonnage is the maximum lift at the shortest radius. Capacity falls sharply as the boom reaches out, so a 50-tonne crane cannot lift 50 tonnes at a long radius.

What to Inspect on a Used Mobile Crane

  • Ask for the latest load-test and inspection certificate before anything else
  • Check boom wear pads, telescoping sync and any sideways play when extended
  • Inspect the hoist rope for broken wires, flattening and corrosion
  • Test every outrigger cylinder for drift under load
  • Confirm the load-moment indicator works and matches the load chart
  • Check chassis mileage, brakes and steering, since the crane has to drive to site
