5-Person Crew Capacity – Ideal for Urban Maintenance and Aerial Work

I. Product Overview

The DFAC XCMG 3T Double Cab Truck-Mounted Crane is a specialized Blue Label vehicle designed for work crews requiring both personnel transport and lifting capability in a single unit. Built on the Dongfeng Dolica chassis with a spacious D6 double cab, this 5-seater crane truck comfortably accommodates a full work crew while delivering reliable lifting performance. Powered by the Yuchai 115 HP engine known for its high torque output, this vehicle excels in urban maintenance, street light repair, sign installation, and aerial work applications where space is limited but crew efficiency is essential.

II. Core Specifications

III. Dimensions, Material & Design Concept

• Design Concept: "Crew First, Compact Performance." This vehicle prioritizes personnel transport capacity (5 seats) while maintaining Blue Label compliance and essential lifting capability for urban maintenance tasks.

• Cargo Box Volume: 2.5 × 1.88 × 0.38 m = approx. 1.79 m³ = 473 US Gallons.

• Cargo Box Construction:

  • Floor thickness: 3 mm (0.12 in) steel plate – optimized for weight compliance

  • Bottom longitudinal beams: Channel steel construction for structural integrity

  • Design Note: The cargo box dimensions reflect the careful balance between crew space, crane installation, and Blue Label weight regulations

• Frame Material: The 180 mm (7.09 in) dedicated frame is engineered to support daily small-scale lifting and transport operations while meeting weight restrictions.

• Cab Design: The D6 double cab offers a wider and taller interior compared to competitor double cab models, providing enhanced crew comfort. The spacious cabin accommodates 5 personnel with adequate legroom and headroom.

• Design Philosophy: Unlike cargo-focused trucks, this vehicle is optimized for crew transport with auxiliary lifting capability, making it ideal for teams that need to travel together to job sites and perform light to medium lifting tasks.

V. Structural Details & Advantages

1. Powertrain System

• Yuchai 115 HP Engine: The Guangxi Yuchai engine delivers:

  • High torque output – exceptional performance on rough roads and steep grades

  • Stall resistance – maintains power in challenging terrain

  • Reliable starting – even in adverse conditions

  • Proven durability – trusted by operators throughout China

• 5-Speed Transmission: The transmission provides:

  • Light and flexible gear changes

  • Smooth power delivery

  • Optimal matching to engine characteristics

• Hill-Climbing Advantage: The combination of high-torque engine and well-matched transmission ensures the vehicle maintains momentum on inclines without stalling – a significant advantage for mountainous terrain and construction sites with challenging access.

2. Chassis System

• Dongfeng Dolica Dedicated Chassis: Engineered specifically for crane mounting with optimized weight distribution for double cab configuration.

• Frame: The 180 mm (7.09 in) frame is designed to support daily small-scale lifting operations while maintaining Blue Label weight compliance.

• Rear Axle: The 4-ton rear axle is appropriately matched to the vehicle's GVWR and typical operating parameters for crew-focused applications.

• Advanced Braking System: The dual-circuit air brake with spring parking brake is complemented by:

  • Automatic brake adjusters for consistent braking performance

  • ABS anti-lock system for emergency stopping safety

• Enhanced Safety Features:

  • Anti-spray mud flaps improve visibility for following vehicles in wet conditions

  • OBD-adjustable headlights allow optimization for different load conditions and environments

• Power Steering: Standard equipment reduces operator fatigue during urban maneuvering and job site positioning.

3. Crew-Focused Design

• Spacious D6 Double Cab: Compared to competing double cab models, the D6 cab offers:

  • Greater interior width and height

  • Enhanced crew comfort for 5 passengers

  • Improved visibility for safe urban operation

• 5-Person Capacity: Eliminates the need for a separate crew transport vehicle, improving job site efficiency and reducing fleet costs.

4. Crane System

• Boom Configuration Options: Available in both straight boom and knuckle boom designs with 2-section or 3-section configurations.

• Working Range: With maximum working radius up to 7.5 m (24.6 ft) and lifting height up to 9.5 m (31.2 ft) for straight boom or 10 m (32.8 ft) for knuckle boom, this crane handles a wide range of urban maintenance tasks.

• Aerial Work Compatibility: The crane can be equipped with a work basket attachment, transforming it into an aerial work platform for:

  • Street light maintenance and repair

  • Camera and sensor installation

  • Sign and banner mounting

  • Building facade repairs

• Stability Features: The front hydraulic outriggers extend to a maximum span of 3.329 m (131.1 in) for straight boom or 3.462 m (136.3 in) for knuckle boom configurations. Given the vehicle's low center of gravity and moderate lifting capacities, hydraulic rear outriggers are typically not required.
