Maeda MC285C-3

Compact Design for Tight-Access Lifting

The Maeda MC285C-3 is a compact mini spider crane engineered for lifting applications in confined and restricted-access job sites. Because of its narrow width and lightweight design, the crane can travel through standard doorways, indoor corridors, and limited-access work areas. In addition, the compact footprint allows operators to work efficiently in urban construction, industrial facilities, and interior projects.

Powerful Lifting Capacity

The MC285C-3 delivers a maximum lifting capacity of 6,210 lb (3.105 US tons). Furthermore, the crane features a five-section hydraulic telescopic boom with a maximum lifting height of 28.7 feet. With the optional fly jib installed, operators can achieve even greater reach for elevated lifting applications. As a result, the MC285C-3 provides excellent versatility for demanding lifting projects.

Advanced Safety and Stability

Safety is a key advantage of the Maeda MC285C-3. Therefore, the crane includes a programmable moment limiter, anti-two-block system, and outrigger interlock system. Additionally, the spider-style outriggers provide excellent stability on uneven surfaces and confined work areas. These features help improve operator confidence while increasing overall jobsite safety.

Efficient Performance and Transportability

The Maeda MC285C-3 is powered by a reliable diesel engine designed for smooth and efficient operation. At the same time, the crane remains lightweight and easy to transport between projects. Moreover, its compact dimensions allow the machine to fit into elevators, rooftops, and interior construction spaces where larger cranes cannot operate.

Ideal Applications

The MC285C-3 mini spider crane is ideal for glazing, steel erection, mechanical installations, plant maintenance, and interior construction projects. Because of its compact size and strong lifting capability, the crane performs efficiently in locations where traditional cranes have limited access.
