Features

Meeting or exceeding all ASME and OSHA standards, the Palfinger PSC 8029 is a full hydraulic service crane with 8,000 lbs capacity. The PSC 8029 hydraulic service crane comes standard with simultaneous multi-function proportional radio remote controls, superior weight-to-lift ratios, and 29’ of reach. The crane is exclusively E-coated by Palfinger for the best rust protection in the industry.
LIGHTER. PALFINGER’s service cranes are as much as 30% lighter than the competition — without sacrificing strength or reach. Less weight means more payload for tools and supplies necessary on the job site.
LONGER. Up to 30% longer than the competition, PALFINGER’s service cranes have the longest reach in the industry. More reach means fewer setup adjustments on the job site and improved access for those challenging lifts. Standard boom lengths are 16’, 25, and 29’ depending on the size of the crane.
STRONGER. PALFINGER’s service cranes are up to 20% stronger than the competition, with a superior lifting moment rating and load chart to do more work in more places. With PALFINGER’s safety systems, including the exclusive winch damage prevention system, lifting more is also safer than ever before.
Standard Features
- PLANETARY WINCH Planetary winch provides speed and durability.
- HORSE HEAD Low profile design. Optional boom tip hook and lights. No A2B components to interfere with operation.
- LOAD BLOCK STOWING BRACKET Bracket and pads designed to keep load block from contacting the boom when stowed.
- HEXAGONAL BOOMS Ultra-low maintenance high tensile strength self-centering single weld boom sections powered by internal extension cylinders.
- CYLINDERS Internal extension cylinders for 29’ of hydraulically powered outreach. All cylinders are E-coated and use a 5 stage marine grade seal system.
- CONTROL SYSTEM Features a standard proportional wireless remote control unit, integrated E-stop button, warning horn and manual valve activation capability. Cranes are controlled with 12V DC power supply
- 3RD WRAP LIMITING SYSTEM Integrated system prevents wire rope spool off, ensuring three wraps remain on drum. Exceeds ASME B30.5.
- PROPORTIONAL CONTROL Through the control valve, fully proportional control of all functions is standard.
