Zoomlion QY50V522: five-section telescopic boom with 55,000 kg maximum lift capacity, 243 kW engine output and 40,470 kg operating weight on a truck crane outside the named model series
Zoomlion is a Chinese construction machinery manufacturer based in Changsha that also offers truck cranes outside its named series. The QY50V522 is a wheeled truck crane with a multi-section telescopic boom. Truck cranes like this outside the named series round out the range with lift classes not covered by the main series.

The QY50V522's boom has 5 sections and allows a maximum lift capacity of 55,000 kg. The engine produces 243 kW at 2,200 rpm, and the machine's operating weight is 40,470 kg.
With a maximum lift capacity of 55 t, the QY50V522 belongs to the upper mid-size class of truck cranes used in building and industrial construction and for assembling large structural components. The five-section telescopic boom allows greater reach than a single-section boom could achieve, without the crane needing to be transported disassembled like a crawler crane. In assembly work requiring long reach, such as placing steel beams or plant components, the long boom pays off compared with shorter booms in the same lift class.
When buying a used truck crane of this lift class, check the condition of the boom sections and their guides, the sealing of the hoist and outrigger cylinders, and the condition of the ropes and rope drum. The condition of the tyres also belongs on the checklist, as they must carry both road transport and work on site. Zoomlion operates a growing international service network through which parts for the engine and crane superstructure are increasingly available.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
