2 Ton (2000kg) Hydraulic Engine Crane

The Frost 2 Ton hydraulic engine crane (also often called an Engine Hoist or Shop Crane) is a lifting device used in garages and workshops to safely lift and move heavy objects, most commonly car engines.

Features at a Glance.

• Capacity: 2 tons (2000 kg) maximum load, though it usually has adjustable boom settings for lighter weights at longer reach.

• Hydraulic system: Uses a hydraulic ram (jack) to lift heavy loads with minimal manual effort.

• Folding design (on many models): Allows easy storage when not in use.

• Mobility: Usually mounted on wheels/casters so it can roll around the workshop.

• Boom length adjustment: Extends or retracts to balance reach vs. lifting capacity.

Common Uses:

• Removing or installing car/truck engines.

• Lifting heavy machinery parts.

• General workshop lifting jobs.

Safety Tips:

• Always check rated capacity for the boom position you’re using.

• Ensure the crane is on a flat, stable surface.

• Use proper lifting chains/straps rated for the load.

• Never work under a suspended load.
