This listing is for a used mounted knuckle boom crane — sometimes called an articulating crane or loader crane — configured as a complete truck-mounted unit ready for heavy lifting and material-handling work. Knuckle boom cranes of this type are commonly used in construction, utility, and infrastructure applications where materials need to be picked, placed, or suspended at extended reach from a road-going vehicle. Hiab is a globally recognised manufacturer of load-handling equipment, including truck-mounted cranes, hook lifts, and forestry equipment, serving industries that depend on reliable, high-capacity lifting integrated with transport.
This particular unit combines a 2013 Hiab XS322E-5 Hipro knuckle boom crane with a 2014 Freightliner 114SD carrier truck, forming a fully integrated working machine. The crane is capable of lifting 1,490 lb at a maximum side reach of 64 feet 5 inches, and the boom can extend to a maximum vertical reach of 72 feet. Reach and capacity of this scale make it well suited to tasks such as placing materials on rooftops, loading flatbed trailers, or servicing elevated structures where precise positioning at distance is required.
The crane's outer boom features five hydraulic extensions, and a fly jib with two additional hydraulic extensions is included, contributing to the exceptional overall reach figures. An LMI (load moment indicator) system is fitted, providing the operator with real-time load and stability monitoring. The crane is controlled via radio remote, allowing the operator to work from a safe and optimal position on the ground. Four outriggers — configured as hydraulic out-and-down units — provide the stabilisation required for working at full extension.
The carrier is a tandem-axle Freightliner 114SD powered by a Detroit DD13 six-cylinder diesel engine producing 410 horsepower, paired with an Allison six-speed automatic transmission. An air tag axle supplements the rear axle group, and suspension is air ride throughout. The truck is specified with air brakes, power steering, air conditioning, and power windows. Tyre sizes are 425/65R22.5 on the front steer axle, 11R22.5 on the rear tandem axle, and 255/70R22.5 on the tag axle. Gross vehicle weight rating is 66,000 lb, with 20,000 lb rated on the front axle and 46,000 lb rated on the rear and tag axle group combined. A 22-foot 6-inch steel flatbed body is mounted to the chassis, providing a working deck for carrying materials alongside the crane.
The unit is located in Pennsylvania, USA, and is offered at $159,500.
