Crane trucks are essential for different projects and operations. Just like other mobile fleets and trucks, they are susceptible to damage and breakdown. For that reason, it is highly recommended to have them inspected annually to ensure that they are fit for future operations. When properly maintained, they can last for up to 25 years. Calling in reliable technicians to provide the necessary maintenance is recommended.

Common Causes of Crane Truck Damage and Breakdown
To prevent breakdown and damage, it helps to know the common causes of such issues. Catching them as early as possible can be of great help to avoid delays in operations and projects.
Oil Pump Issues – Oil pump issues affect moving parts. Once a single mechanical part stops working, the remaining ones follow suit. This is a serious cause of breakdown that calls for a speedy response. To prevent this, consider bringing in your truck for an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 mileage.
Engine Problems – It is highly recommended to check your engine oil once a month to ensure that all parts of the engine are working properly.
Some of the indications of engine problems include the following:
- Failure to start
- Humidity issues
- Dark black exhaust
Faulty Brakes – The brake system needs to be inspected every six months, and the brake pads need replacement every 50,000 mileage. Since brake systems of crane trucks are often exposed to friction and pressure, they become susceptible to wear and tear over time. Not only do faulty brakes cause trucks to break down, but they also are a major cause of accidents.
Care Tips for Crane Trucks
To utilize them even until the last days of their life expectancies, consider the following tips:
Conduct an Inspection Before Operations – To see if there are parts that need repair or replacement, an inspection should be done before every lifting operation. This prevents further damage and helps catch minor issues.
Prevent Operating Beyond Lifting Capacities – Crane trucks are designed to lift heavy loads, but they are designed with certain lifting capacities only. It is best to check the guide provided by the manufacturer to ensure that you are following the safe weight limit.
By regularly practicing these tips, some issues that might lead to breakdown and damage can be prevented. For a thorough inspection, calling in professional technicians is the best option.
