The numbers that decide the job.

Rated capacity applies at base configuration only. Allowable load at your radius, hook height, and outrigger setup is governed by the Maeda load chart. Send us the pick and we'll verify it.

Figures are from the Maeda MC305C-5 technical data sheet (2025). Allowable capacity depends on radius, boom position, and outrigger position (Max, Mid, Min), so CLE verifies every pick against the applicable chart.
