Hire-up Go For Instant
Zip-up Scissor Lifts
Hire Up, a division of Eagle Ridge
Pty Limited, have chosen Instant Zip-
Up scissor lifts from Instant Scaffolds to
complete their access equipment range.
In 1987 Col Mclntyre,. owner and
operator of Hire-Up, was involved in the
industrial cleaning business where he
found it difficult to obtain the access
equipment needed to make his job
easier. From these difficulties he experienced,
came the idea to form Hire-
Up, a company specialising in the hire
of access equipment for industrial applications.
Col and his wife, Carol, both
work full time in what is fast becoming
the leading limited access equipment
hire company in the Sydney
metropolitan area.
In line with the Hire-Up policy to
provide customers with the best equipment
available on the market today Col
extensively explored the access equipment
market in an effort to obtain the
best scissor lifts possible. His search
ended when site tests of the Instant Zip-
Up scissor lifts proved this range had the
qualities he required. The access equipment
Hire-Up needed had to be of
rugged design to cope with every condition
possible and to be so, manouverable
that every access problem could be
overcome while at the same time being
competitively priced. All these needs
were met only by the Instant Zip-Up
range.
The XL24 pictured is the first of 12
Instant Zip-Up scissor lifts to be
delivered to Hire-Up and is available to
customers. Mr Col Mclntyre said, "I
have used many different brands of access
equipment over the years but the
Instant Zip-Up range is the most robust
and powerful scissor lift I have ever
operated. The scope of applications is
enormous due to their amazing
manouverability".
Instant Zip-Up scissor lifts are ideal
for industrial cleaners, painters or
electricians, to name just a few applications.
If you have an access problem,
Hire-Up is the company that can solve
your problems for you.
Hire-Up take pride in the equipment
they hire out and ensure that every item
is fully maintained. If there is a problem
their 24 hour customer service line will

Century to Distribute
Cranemaster LMI
Century Construction Equipment Pty
Ltd have been appointed the Australian
distributor of the Cranemaster MKII
Automatic Load Moment Indicator.
The Cranemaster has been developed
by the New Zealand P&H dealer Titan
Plant Services Pty Ltd and has been
utilized in most of the P&H cranes used
in the ' Think Big ' projects. The prime
reason that the load moment indicator
was developed initially was to overcome
the major problem of keeping load
indicators working in the field . New
Zealand is not alone with this problem
as many Australian crane owners have
also suffered lack of reliability, lack of
spare parts and lack of expertise in
repairs.
Any make, model or type of crane can
be fitted with the Cranemaster MKII.
Even if the unit is transferred to another
crane it is simply a matter of installing a
new low cost replacement silicon chip
which has the new load chart incorporated
in it.
The Cranemaster MKII automatically
and constantly monitors the
changing crane load and conditions in
accordance with the crane's rating chart.
It provides the operator with the vital,
basic information and signals required
to operate the crane safely without
taking away the operator's ultimate control
of the crane.
The Cranemaster MKII load Moment
Indicator System is an automatic load
moment indicator system giving the
operator five displays.
. Permissable Load
. Actual Load
. Radius
. Boom Length
• Boom Angle
Together with a visual warning of
approach to maximum working loads,
visual and audible warning as overload
occurs.
Should any problems occur, a self
diagnostic capability immediately alerts
the operator that a failure has occurred
and indicates on the display a code that
isolates the location of the fault.
Optional extras include anti two
block alarm and motion cut. For further
