The upgraded ETL series has extra outreach and cage capacity<br />

The bestselling series of<br />

aerial access platforms for 3.5<br />

has been upgraded with;<br />

Extra outreach<br />

The new ETL features a<br />

thicker aluminium profile<br />

on the inner boom which,<br />

combined with LMC and a<br />

lighter cage, results in an<br />

increase in the maximum<br />

outreach on select ETL units.<br />

Extra cage capacity<br />

The max cage capacity<br />

of ETL units has been<br />

upgraded from 200 to 230<br />

kg to better accommodate 2<br />

operators with tools.<br />

Safer emergency operation<br />

The hydraulic valves are now<br />

located at the pedestal for<br />

safer and easier emergency<br />

descent operations.<br />

Previously, the hydraulic<br />

valves were located at the<br />

turret where they were<br />

somewhat inaccessible as<br />

the ground level operator<br />

was required to stand on a<br />

tall ladder while performing<br />

the descent procedure.<br />

New unit (ETL-38)<br />

A new addition to the ETL<br />

series is the ETL-38-140-F<br />

available on 3.5 t Renault<br />

Master and Mercedes-Benz<br />

Sprinter vans.<br />

New flybooms<br />

All van mounted ETL units<br />

with an articulating flyboom<br />

now feature a higher degree<br />

of flyboom articulation.<br />

The traditional 90°<br />

flyboom has been replaced<br />

with a 120° flyboom granting<br />

added versatility, while the<br />

new ETL-38 features a 140°<br />

flyboom.<br />

Same payload<br />

Despite the increase in<br />

engine weight on the Euro<br />

6 vehicles, the leftover<br />

payload remains on the<br />

same level as before.<br />

New control panels<br />

Rounding out the extensive<br />

list of product upgrades, the<br />

ETL series now has the new<br />

control panel (next page).<br />

Similar to the ETL series, the<br />

Safer emergency operation<br />

Similar to the upgrade to<br />
