Also known as compact tracked aerial work platforms or tracked boom lifts — are self-propelled access machines mounted on narrow rubber tracks. Unlike conventional scissor lifts or wheeled boom lifts, spider lifts deploy stabilizing outriggers that allow them to operate on uneven terrain, delicate surfaces, and in spaces too narrow or fragile for conventional equipment.
UPequip’s Easy Lift spider lift lineup spans working heights from 40 ft to 172 ft, with platform widths as narrow as 32.5 inches — making them the preferred solution for arborists, construction contractors, building maintenance professionals, and rental centers that need reliable, low ground-pressure access in constrained environments.
Every unit in the Easy Lift series is engineered for simplicity: all-hydraulic design, minimal electronics, and a 1-2-3 warranty program that covers parts, service, and structural components. Whether you need a spider lift for indoor atrium work, tree care, window cleaning, or construction access, UPequip delivers the machine — and the support — to keep you working.

Most spider lifts in the Easy Lift lineup carry between 265 lbs and 510 lbs in the platform. The 101-48AJ, for example, supports 510 lbs at 42 ft of outreach and 265 lbs at the full 48 ft. Platform capacity varies by model and outreach position — always consult the working envelope chart.
Yes. Spider lifts with widths as narrow as 32.5 inches can pass through standard commercial doorways and fit inside elevators. Their electric or hybrid power systems produce zero exhaust, making them fully OSHA-compliant for indoor use. Outrigger pads protect finished floors.
New spider lift prices range from approximately $70,000 to $230,000 USD depending on working height, outreach, and options. UPequip offers financing and rental programs — contact us for a custom quote on any model in the Easy Lift lineup.
Easy Lift spider lifts range from 40 ft (12 m) on the compact 40-20AJ to 172 ft (52 m) on the 172-66AJ — the tallest compact tracked boom lift in its weight class. Horizontal outreach spans from 20 ft to 66 ft depending on model.
Yes. The outrigger design of spider lifts compensates for uneven terrain and slopes. Many Easy Lift models operate on inclines up to 30%, making them the preferred machine for arborists and landscapers working on hillsides and embankments.
Without a doubt purchasing a lift from UPequip was one of the most lucrative purchases in my career . As a 20 year tree climbing veteran it was a nice break up in the daily grind to not have to climb everything all the time. I love climbing but you simply cannot…

UpEquip has been valuable asset to our business. As an equipment rental company, our 70-36A spider lift was a phenomenal addition to our fleet. Alain was incredibly helpful during the buying process, and we know their service department is a quick phone call away should we need any assistance. Highly recommend!
I purchase a 61-36A machine a couple of years ago. Overall, I’m very happy with the machine and extremely happy with the service I’ve received from UPEquip. The machine suits my needs very well and have had few problems. I have had a few issues with electrical problems.. The AC/DC converter went…
I purchased an EasyLift 87-48AJ from Up Equipment in March of 2020. It has done an excellent job for us, more than doubling production on any job requiring a climber. In fact, I no longer employ a climber. If I cannot get the EasyLift close enough to a tree on a prospective…
