EXTEND FURTHER WITH MOMENT-SENSITIVE OUTREACH
Designed for easy operation and low maintenance, our optimised platform designs use high quality materials so are lighter than other brands, without compromising on strength or safety.
- Ideal choice for Local Authorities
- More payload than other options available for tools and equipment.
- No noise from an idling engine, thanks to E-Drive, our self-charging hybrid system, so can operate in Clean Air Zones without difficulty.
YOUR BENEFITS
Lower carbon footprint
Designed and manufactured in Hull, and our components are sourced from British suppliers. We are proud to be a member of ‘Made in Britain’.
Fuel and CO2 saving
E-Drive – our unique, self-charging hybrid system, allows the engine to be off whilst operating your platform; you save on fuel and engine service costs.
Easy operation
Our electro-hydraulic basket control panel has been designed for logical operation, and this is duplicated on the ground controls to avoid confusion. The boom itself is a reverse articulated boom configuration.
Greater payload in the vehicle
Our lightweight platforms mean you more payload for tools and equipment.
EXTRA SAFETY
Safety is central to all our platforms. As such, there are insulating harness anchors in the 2-man GRP composite basket.
Minimal maintenance
We use stainless pins and maintenance-free bushes, and our slew ring is inside the van for easy access.
