Work Crane and Assembly Trolley Kit AWTools 2 Ton Crane with 900 kg Assembly Trolley

The AWTools 2 Ton Crane with 900 kg Assembly Trolley is a combined lifting and positioning solution intended for workshops, garages and industrial service spaces. The kit pairs a hydraulic shop crane rated for 2 tonnes with a low-profile assembly trolley that supports and moves loads up to 900 kg. Together they enable lifting, transferring and aligning engines, transmissions and other heavy components during repair, maintenance and installation tasks.

Advantages

The crane offers a 2 t rated lifting capacity and a hydraulic ram for controlled raising and lowering of heavy parts. The assembly trolley provides a stable, low-height platform with casters to transport and precisely position loads up to 900 kg. Combined, the units reduce manual handling, speed up alignment operations and help maintain workplace ergonomics when moving bulky components.

Suitable for

• Engine removal and installation in automotive repair shops
• Transmission handling and gearbox alignment
• Relocating machine parts and equipment within a workshop
• Assembly and disassembly tasks that require stable load support and movement

When it may not be suitable

This kit is designed for lifting and moving discrete heavy components rather than continuous transport over long distances. It is not intended as a substitute for vehicle hoists or permanent overhead lifting systems where those are required. Use on uneven or sloped surfaces may reduce stability and is not recommended.

Key specifications

• Crane rated lifting capacity: 2 tonnes
• Trolley maximum load capacity: 900 kg
• Hydraulic lifting mechanism for controlled height adjustment
• Low-profile trolley design with swivel casters for maneuverability
• Intended application: workshop and garage lifting/positioning

How to use

Position the crane near the load and secure the hook or lifting attachment to the component using appropriate slings or chains. Operate the hydraulic pump to lift the load slowly, checking stability throughout the lift. Once the load is clear, place it onto the assembly trolley or use the trolley to approach the load and transfer it onto the platform. Move the trolley by steering the swivel casters to align the component for installation or service. Lower the load gradually to the trolley or mounting points, and always use supports or stands for extended work periods.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the rated capacities match your heaviest loads and include safety margins
• Check available workshop floor space and ceiling height for safe crane operation
• Confirm floor flatness and load-bearing capacity for stable trolley use

Usage recommendations

Follow manufacturer instructions for inspection and maintenance, perform regular checks of hydraulic components, fasteners and casters, and always use certified slings and rated lifting accessories. Operate the crane and trolley on level surfaces and never exceed the specified load limits.
