Thern Portable Lifting Davit Crane First Mate 5PF5-M2+ with Worm Gear Manual Winch and Base – up to 385kg WLL

Description

The Thern First Mate 5PF5-M2 Portable Davit Crane is a versatile and efficient lifting system designed for maintenance, construction, water treatment, and industrial service applications where portability and ease of use are essential. With a maximum lifting capacity of 385 kg, this compact davit crane offers reliable lifting performance while remaining lightweight and easy to relocate between work sites.

This complete lifting system includes the 5PF5 davit crane, a 4WM2-CE worm gear manual hand winch, 6.4 mm galvanised steel wire rope with hook, and a 5BF5 pedestal base mount. Designed for quick setup and dependable operation, the system provides a practical lifting solution in environments where fixed cranes are not practical.

The First Mate davit arm features a fixed boom length with three adjustable working angles, allowing operators to select the appropriate lifting configuration depending on load position and reach. The crane provides different rated capacities depending on the jib angle and extension, ensuring safe lifting while maintaining flexibility across various applications.

A key feature of the 5PF5-M2 model is the 4WM2-CE worm gear hand winch, which includes a drill-drive capability. This allows the winch to be operated using a standard power drill (maximum 400 RPM drive speed) for faster lifting and lowering, making it particularly beneficial for longer lift operations or frequent maintenance tasks where manual cranking alone would be slower.

The system is supplied with 6.4 mm diameter galvanised steel wire rope with a length of 13.7 metres, providing excellent strength and corrosion resistance for outdoor and industrial environments. The rope is terminated with a durable load hook to ensure secure lifting.

Designed for maximum portability, the davit incorporates quick-release hardware and snap fastenings, allowing the crane to be assembled, disassembled, or relocated in minutes without tools. The arm can also fold for transport and storage, making it ideal for maintenance teams that need lifting capability in multiple locations.

The davit and pedestal base feature a durable powder-coated finish, providing long-lasting protection against corrosion and environmental exposure. Once mounted, the crane can rotate 360�, allowing loads to be positioned easily and improving operational flexibility in confined or restricted workspaces.

Because of its compact design, ergonomic handling, and portability, the First Mate 5PF5-M2 is widely used for pump removal in water and wastewater facilities, as well as maintenance lifting on rooftops, ships, silos, and construction sites.

The system is CE marked and supplied with a Declaration of Conformity, ensuring compliance with European safety standards. Thern also backs the product with a 2-year standard manufacturer warranty, demonstrating its reliability and quality for professional lifting operations.

Optional accessories are available to further expand the system�s capabilities, including additional davit sockets for multiple mounting locations, base extensions for increased hook height, extra wire ropes with quick-disconnect fittings, headache balls to maintain rope tension, and rotational locks to secure the davit position.

With its drill-drive winch capability, lightweight structure, and portable design, the Thern First Mate 5PF5-M2 Portable Davit Crane provides a practical and flexible lifting solution for demanding maintenance and industrial environments.
