The Tadano GR-550XL‑2 is a hydraulic rough terrain crane. Thoughtfully designed components combined with the latest technology and durable material this crane is versatile and intuitive to handle. Equipped is an Eco mode system function that controls the quantity of hydraulic pump emission during crane operation in response to the amount of movement applied, thereby minimizing the fuel consumption and carbon footprint.

The GR-550XL‑2 has a max. lifting capacity of 50 metric tons (55 U.S. tons) and the max. boom length is 34.7 m (114 ft). This model has a 15.2 m (50 ft) two-stage bi-fold lattice-type jib that can be attached. Composed of 4 sections, a full power partially synchronized telescoping boom, and rectangular box construction with 4 sheaves at the boom head. The slewing ring uses a hydraulic axial piston motor driven through a planetary slewing speed reducer that allows continuous 360˚ full-circle slewing on a ball-bearing.
