XCMG GSQS350-5 Truck Mounted Crane

8-sided polygonal boom cross-section instead of the rectangular profile common in entry-level truck-mounted cranes. The polygonal profile distributes bending and torsional stresses more evenly across the boom wall — better load-carrying capacity within the same structural envelope, and reduced risk of local buckling under off-axis lifts.

3-axle chassis with 6×4 drive configuration (6 wheels, 4 driven) and 18,500 kg gross vehicle weight — stays within standard road permit thresholds in most European jurisdictions. MC11.40-50 main engine (9.726 L, 294 kW) is a MAN-licensed design meeting Euro V emission standards. Suited for project work in markets where China III / Euro II / Bharat Stage V machines need retrofit or import waivers.

90 km/h maximum driving speed — higher than typical truck-mounted cranes in the same GVW class which are commonly limited to 70-80 km/h. Combined with the moderate 18.5-ton GVW, supports daily highway transit between sites on standard road permits, important for rental fleets and contractors with project work spread across a region.

Outrigger legs use a two-stage hydraulic extension (manually rotated to deploy, then automatically extended) for a wider stable span on uneven jobsite ground. The operator station is mounted on a high-seat rotary table for better load visibility from above the lift; an optional remote control allows the operator to position for the best load view independent of the seat. Proportional hydraulics support compound (simultaneous) motions, and a torque limit valve cuts boom motion before chassis stability is exceeded.

Chassis, hydraulic components, and crane accessories share core part numbers with other XCMG truck and truck-mounted crane platforms — lower inventory carrying cost for fleet operators running mixed XCMG rosters across multiple vehicle classes. XCMG-standard L-HM(CY) wide-temperature hydraulic oil eliminates seasonal oil changes. Genuine XCMG parts and service available through me-equipment.com's authorized dealer channel.
