Partnership produces tracked Terex Utilities Lift
Terex Utilities has introduced a new track-based lift in partnership with chassis provider SDP Manufacturing.
The 47ft working height TL45 articulated telescopic aerial platform with a jib, is installed by SDP Manufacturing on its rubber tracked chassis. The chassis has a hydraulic track drive that extends from 31.1 inches wide to 55 inches, making the unit ideal for working on sensitive terrain, such as backyards or sidewalks, or for accessing tight spaces, such as alleys.
Featuring a 900 lb. capacity jib, the TL45 is designed to be a flexible option for contractors that need to lift materials in difficult to access areas. Being insulated to 46 KV Category C, it is also an option for rental companies to offer to homeowner, as well as contractors, said the company. Other features include full continuous rotation, unlimited work zone, and corded remote drive and outrigger controls. The unit is also stable when driving on side slopes up to 20 degrees.
“We are seeing high demand for this specialty personnel and material handling equipment in the [USA] East and Midwest,” said Bradd Weibel, Terex/Genie Services, Strategic Account Manager. Units are now available for delivery at various Terex Service Centers in these regions.
