The URW-094 SPYDERCRANE® may be the smallest crane in the SPYDERCRANE family, but it can sure get into some tight spots. This video focuses on starting and traveling the all-electric, zero-emissions URW-094.

The URW-094 SPYDERCRANE has an internal battery that, when fully charged, offers twenty minutes of travel time to maneuver the crane into position for a lift.

To start the 094, go to the rear of the SPYDERCRANE and check the position of the controls. There are three positions: the first is stowage mode, the second is travel mode, and the third is crane operation mode. If necessary, pull on the black ball pin and tilt the controls up to place them into travel mode.

Turn on the ignition key located at the rear of the crane and engage the accelerator lever, which is to the right of the track control levers.

The levers on the back of the crane independently control the tracks. To go forward, smoothly push both levers forward. To turn, release pressure on the track control in the direction of the turn while maintaining forward pressure on the other control. To back up, pull both controls smoothly toward you.

The speed of the URW-094 during travel is controlled by the accelerator control on the right side of the control panel. To speed up, smoothly pull the accelerator control toward you.

When traveling the SPYDERCRANE URW-094, the maximum slope angle is 23 degrees front to back and 10 degrees sideways. Always approach a slope head-on, and never travel up or down a grade sideways.

You are now ready to maneuver the SPYDERCRANE URW-094 into position for your lift.

Although these videos are to aid you in the familiarization of the SPYDERCRANE URW-094, please reference and follow all manufacturer's operating and safety recommendations. It is important to operate the URW-094 in a safe manner at all times. It is important to travel slowly when maneuvering around obstacles and always maintain control of the crane.
