## Engine Crane, Hoist, Lift, Folding, Hydraulic, with Leveler/Balancer for Load
An Engine Crane, also commonly known as an engine hoist or shop crane, is a specialized piece of lifting equipment designed primarily for the removal, installation, and manipulation of heavy loads, particularly automotive engines, transmissions, and other heavy machinery components. The full description ENGINE CRANE HOIST LIFT FOLDING HYDRAULIC LEVELER BALANCER LOAD specifies a particular configuration incorporating several key features and an accessory for enhanced functionality.
At its core, an engine crane is a mobile, freestanding jib crane comprising a sturdy steel frame typically shaped like an 'A' or 'T', supported by wheels or casters for mobility. A horizontal or angled boom (or jib) extends outwards from the frame's vertical support structure. A hoist or lift mechanism is integrated, utilizing a hydraulic system to generate the lifting force required to raise and lower the load suspended from a hook at the end of the boom.
The term **Folding** indicates a design feature where the frame, particularly the legs, can be folded inwards. This significantly reduces the crane's footprint when not in use, facilitating easier storage in workshops with limited space.
The Hydraulic component refers to the power source and mechanism for lifting. Most engine cranes employ a hydraulic ram operated by a manual pump handle. Pumping the handle extends the ram, which in turn raises the boom and the suspended load. A release valve allows for controlled lowering of the load. This hydraulic system provides significant mechanical advantage, enabling a single person to lift loads weighing hundreds or even thousands of kilograms.
The terms **Leveler** and **Balancer** refer to an accessory often used in conjunction with the engine crane, particularly when handling engines. An engine leveler or load balancer is a device that attaches between the crane's hook and the load (the engine). It typically consists of an adjustable mechanism, often a screw handle or lever, connected to multiple chains or straps that attach to different points on the engine. By turning the handle, the operator can change the angle or tilt of the suspended engine. This is crucial for maneuvering engines into or out of tight engine bays, allowing precise adjustment of the load's balance and angle for alignment with mounts and transmission connections. Without a leveler, the engine hangs at a fixed angle determined by its center of gravity, making precise positioning difficult.
Therefore, the full title describes a highly versatile and common piece of workshop equipment: a mobile crane, built with a structure that can be folded for storage, powered by a hydraulic system for lifting, and often used in conjunction with a load leveling/balancing accessory to facilitate the precise handling and positioning of heavy components, most notably automotive engines. These cranes are essential tools in automotive repair garages, home workshops, and light industrial settings for tasks involving the removal, installation, and movement of heavy loads within a relatively confined area.
