Name: Sinotruk Howo 5 ton small truck mounted crane for sale Senegal
Brand: Sinotruk HOWO

The Sinotruk HOWO 5 ton small truck mounted crane is a 4x2 left hand drive vehicle built on a 140 HP diesel chassis with a 6-speed manual gearbox. It carries a 7000 kg payload and a 4800 x 2300 x 550 mm cargo box, designed for construction sites, logistics hubs, and industrial maintenance teams that need to load and unload freight without relying on external cranes. The crane is mounted on the rear and can rotate 360 degrees, extend and lift with a single cylinder synchronization system, allowing one operator to handle the entire process efficiently.

Key Benefits

4x2 HOWO chassis with 140 HP engine ensures reliable performance on rough terrain and unpaved access roads
7000 kg payload capacity allows transport and on-site lifting of heavy materials without a second crane
Single cylinder synchronization with guy cable technology improves lifting efficiency and reduces cycle time
Pentagon and hexagon boom design increases anti-bending strength and stability under load
Float three-point bridge structure reduces stress on the chassis during travel
Optional radio remote control and top seat control allow flexible operation from multiple positions
High-strength steel construction ensures durability under repeated lifting cycles

Buyer Profile

Who It Is for

Construction companies operating in West Africa with limited crane availability

Build Materials

Materials

High-strength steel used in all structural components of the crane and chassis
Steel cargo box with welded construction for load integrity
Aluminium alloy used in crane control panels and non-load-bearing parts
Rubber seals and gaskets in hinge points and access doors for weather resistance

How It Is Built

Manufacturing Process

Chassis is received from Sinotruk and verified for wheelbase and drive configuration
Cargo box is cut, formed, and welded to the chassis frame with high-strength steel
Crane boom and lifting mechanism are assembled and aligned with the chassis
Single cylinder synchronization system and guy cables are installed and tested
Float three-point bridge structure is fitted to reduce chassis stress during travel
Slewing machine and anti-slewing impulse system are mounted and calibrated
Control panel, remote control, and top seat control are installed and tested
Vehicle is painted and logos applied as per customer request
Final inspection includes crane function, load test, and chassis stability check

Testing

Quality Control

All structural welds inspected using non-destructive testing methods
Crane lifting capacity tested under full load at 100% rated capacity
360 degree rotation and boom extension tested for smooth operation and safety
Chassis stress tested during simulated travel with full load
Every unit is 100 percent tested before delivery
Photos and videos of the finished truck are sent to the buyer before balance payment

Build to Order

Customization Options

Crane type selected at order stage: telescopic boom or knuckle boom
Radio remote control and top seat control available as optional fitments
Cargo box color and logo applied free of charge
Chassis drive configuration confirmed at order stage (left hand drive standard)
Custom load distribution and mounting points available upon request
Manufacture to customer supplied technical drawings and specifications

Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

Mobile crane with separate transport truck	Higher total cost and more vehicles to manage, but greater lifting capacity and reach
Fixed crane at a job site	Less flexible and requires site preparation, but more stable and higher rated capacity
Smaller 3 ton truck crane	Lower lifting capacity but better maneuverability in tight urban or rural areas

Operating Notes

Use Guide

Confirm left hand drive configuration at order stage as it cannot be changed after production
Use only the designated lifting points and do not exceed the 5 ton rated capacity
Engage the anti-slewing impulse system before lifting to prevent vehicle instability
Perform daily checks on hydraulic lines, cables, and boom hinges before operation
Use radio remote control or top seat control only when the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly
Drain hydraulic fluid and inspect seals after prolonged exposure to high humidity or rain
