WE ARE PROUD TO LAUNCH OUR NEW CZ PICKUP-MOUNTED ACCESS PLATFORMS
...With the launch of CZ140, the first platform that can be mounted to a standard pickup without the need to up-rate the GVW.
As with its van-mounted platforms, the new range operates using E-Drive – a self-charging hybrid electric system, that enables platform operation with the ignition off, saving on fuel costs and CO2 emissions.
Aldercote’s CZ range has models with maximum working heights of 14m, 15m and 16m, all of which can be mounted to a Ford Ranger, Isuzu D-Max, or a Toyota Hilux. The CZ140 provides 6.2m outreach at a market-leading safe working load (SWL) of 250kg, and a maximum outreach of 6.9m with anything less than 170kg basket load. The CZ160 has an impressive maximum outreach of 8.1m. For those requiring more storage, then the Cargo option provides space and payload to carry over 300kg, without compromising the 250kg SWL.
“Thanks to our lattice subframe design, and the high-quality materials we use, our platforms are lighter than other options,” explains Marc Paish, Technical Director. “Our unique Axle Lift Front Stabiliser system takes all the load off the front wheels, eliminating uncontrolled movements and the risk of damage to the front suspension while increasing the stability,” he continues.
The basket includes insulated harness anchors for low voltage protection. ‘Fit and forget’ bushes are used to eliminate the need for greasing, thereby reducing some maintenance. The technical features don’t stop with the design. As with the company’s van portfolio, Aldercote also provides a Remote Diagnostics Service as standard, allowing the service team to connect via mobile phone and provide additional support, if needed.
