This Maeda MC283 CF is a used mini crane — sometimes referred to as a spider crane — dating from 2010 and currently located in New Zealand. Mini cranes are compact lifting machines designed to operate in confined or access-restricted spaces where larger conventional cranes cannot reach, making them a practical choice for indoor construction, fit-out work, installation of heavy plant and equipment, and tight urban job sites. Maeda is a well-established Japanese manufacturer with a long history of producing specialist lifting equipment, including mini cranes, for the construction, facilities management, and industrial sectors.
This particular machine is identified as the MC-283CFRMS variant and carries serial number FC0023. It is equipped with a 360-degree rotating mast, giving full working coverage around the crane's position without the need to reposition the machine. The boom extends to 5.54 metres, and at that radius the crane is rated to lift 530 kilograms at 5.17 metres. The lifting hook itself is rated at 2.8 tonnes, reflecting the crane's broader capacity envelope at shorter radii.
The hour meter reads just 12.8 hours, indicating extremely low use since manufacture. The seller notes that the machine will require certification before being placed into commercial use, which is standard practice for lifting equipment in New Zealand, and buyers should factor this into their planning. The crane is described as being on-site and ready for inspection.
The listed price is NZD $19,055, and the machine is available from a dealer yard in Christchurch.
