WINONA, MN – Oz Lifting Products has launched a new wheel base with a 1,200-lb capacity, designed for usage alongside the company’s range of davit cranes.

The adjustable wheel base has four different length positions, providing it with a length range of 56.57 to 77.57 inches. When fully assembled and before the addition of a crane’s pedestal base, the model weighs in at 140lbs and stands at 36.87 inches high and 32.44 inches wide.

The wheel base has been constructed from steel and provided a powder-coat finish. Movement is increased by oversized casters for rolling movement, in addition to a floor anchoring system for 360-degree rotations, even under load.

“Demand for such a solution has steadily increased over the last few years,” said Richard Miller, sales manager for OZ Lifting. “Our customers try to leverage the benefits of our lightweight davit cranes with the ability to use them in different ways and locations. The base allows them to move the crane to various points within a facility; the applications are limitless.”

OZ Lifting are preparing to launch the wheel base in January 2024.
