A standard 3000 PSI air/water line runs from ground to basket through the boom to offer more flexibility and less weight in the basket.
The standard lightweight aluminum detachable basket can be removed in seconds from the unit to allow insertion in tight places, doors, gates, etc. Optional casters can be installed on baskets so they can be transported easily.
► VIDEO: Basket removal Large unitsProviding a major increase in both stability and weight distribution, extra-long black rubber tracks also provide an enhanced climbing capability to your unit. Made of durable rubber with a steel belt reinforcement, they are built to last.
Multi-layer powder coat baked paint is applied before parts assembly, offering the same protection everywhere on parts. Customs colors are available in option.
All units are equipped with independently operable high speed booms, allowing far better insertion strategies and a lot more flexibility.
Designed to easily provide extensive stability to this particularly narrow unit, the real hydraulic track extension system will increase ground clearance and provide extensive stability for loading and climbing.
All hoses and harnesses are routed inside of the boom, and protected by a heavy duty unbreakable patented telescopic power track. All hoses and harnesses can be inspected and replaced quickly right on the job site.
The hydraulic compensation system will keep the basket leveled to the ground all the time without any interaction required from the operator. For specific needs and tricky situations, there is a manual override.
There are multiple outrigger positions since every outrigger is mounted on a swing-out pivot, allowing standard position (wide), narrow position or, for crowded floors, it is possible to mix positions for more flexibility.
► VIDEO: Turret rotation amplitude demonstrationThe wind factor needs to be considered at all time when working in heights. Easy Lift units are fully safe under 28 Mph.
The anti-overload system is designed to prevent operation of a unit with an overloaded basket. An alarm and a red light, both at base and basket, will warn you. This system can be verified by operator during daily inspection.
For faster and more efficient troubleshooting from basket and base, the easy-to-read pilot lamps will quickly tell which condition isn’t met or what the current situation is.
► VIDEO: Description of a Main BoxBringing a harmed operator or broken basket control to the ground is always possible from the base using the emergency descent procedure. The electric 12V emergency pump just makes it easier since no manual pumping is required to move the oil and build pressure.

Minimal cover dismounting is required to access most of the main emergency components of the unit. Switches and hydraulics are easily accessible, allowing inspection and repairs right on the job site if required.
Wear pads can be adjusted easily, no shimming required. Most can be replaced without the need to de-booming for extra convenience.
This is defined by how easy will you be able to climb any given obstacle (stairways, slopes, crosswalks, etc.) with limited use of ramps, wood blocks or else. The knowledge of this standard Easy Lift feature is crucial to make the best choice. This will be a blessing each and every time the unit will be used.

The electrical system is composed of standard 12V, North American, easy to find, Solid State, and compatible components. No hassle in finding 24V parts!
Most of the components used in our units are commonly used in industrial mechanical equipment on the market and are available everywhere in North America.
Although it is far more convenient to be two men to move a basket, casters will make your task possible even if you’re alone. No need to carry a dolly, just pure efficiency.
► VIDEO: How easy to move basket with castersMulti-layer powder coat baked paint is applied before parts assembly, offering the same protection everywhere on parts. This option will allow color matching through the RAL International Color Code to paint your unit with your own company colors.
Despite all your planning and care, accidents unfortunately happen. The 1/4-inch heavy duty thick aluminum plates composing the hostile kit will greatly minimize the impacts of such accidents on vital components of the unit: ground lever controls, outrigger switches and cylinders.
Never leave black marks anymore on any surface: concrete, brick patio, stone, marble, wood, epoxy coating, and so on. You will drive on non-marking tracks with peace of mind and won’t need to bite on your profit to clean up afterwards.
► Video comparing black vs non-marking tracksVery popular in the Utility and Tree Care markets, the one-man fiberglass basket will bring even more efficiency to those who often work in very tight places and hard-to-reach areas. There is no need to remove it at insertion and its dimensions makes it easy to insert within structures, branches, etc.
The outriggers needs some travel when they lift tracks off the ground. There are a few options available: 16 X 24 or 20 X 40 with or without sliding rails. Custom-made Teflon pads are designed to insure best load of each leg as well as best performance overall for operator.
With increasing safety regulations, this small option will soon make a huge difference and determine whether you will be able to go or not on a jobsite. Well worth it!
This 2-Man fiberglass basket provides more flexibility regarding what tools can be carried up for work. The fiberglass makes insertion in branches as smooth as it can be.
Only one 110V AC standard plug is necessary to warm your hydraulic oil tank, maintain your battery fully charged and insure that your unit will start in cold weather. A must-have option for those whose next project is a garage for equipment.
