Having not been at Bauma, the French access platform maker<br />

Haulotte used Vertikal Days for the first exhibition showing of its new<br />

HA12CJ boom lift. This machine, with its maximum working height of<br />

11.7m, is a new addition to the company’s platform portfolio.<br />

<strong>The</strong> battery powered HA12CJ scores by being a very compact<br />

machine that operates with zero tail swing. It is only 1.2m wide and<br />

has a height of only 1.99m when the booms are stowed. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

dimensions allow the machine to pass through standard doorways.<br />

<strong>The</strong> articulating and telescopic boom configuration, complete with<br />

a short riser, aids operation in confined spaces. Maximum outreach is<br />

7.0m (or 7.22m for the HA12CJ+ version whose jib can be rotated<br />

90° either side of centre) at an up-and-over height of some 4.6m.<br />

<strong>The</strong> HA12CJ and HA12CJ+ have cage capacities of 250kg and<br />

230kg and weigh 6970kg and 7040kg respectively. <strong>The</strong> two wheel<br />

drive and steer machines come with solid non-marking tyres. Deep<br />

cycle batteries are standard with full traction batteries available as an<br />

option. A good feature is the provision of battery charge indicators on<br />

both control panels.<br />

Haulotte<br />

<strong>The</strong> Chesterfield, UK based access platform distributor Ranger Equipment Ltd (www.rangergroup.co.uk) used Vertikal<br />

Days to showcase one of the brand new rough terrain scissor lifts from German maker PB Lifttechnik. <strong>The</strong> machine at<br />

Haydock Park was the S151-19E which provides a maximum working height of 15.0m.<br />

PB Lifttechnik has developed a new 12-model series of 4x4 rough terrain scissors with maximum working heights<br />

from 13.0m to 23.0m. <strong>The</strong>se machines have platform capacities from 500kg to 1200kg and can be supplied with<br />

electric or diesel power and as 1.9m or 2.4m wide machines.<br />

<strong>The</strong> S151-19E scissor seen at Haydock Park was an electric machine with a battery power rating of 455Ah/5 at<br />

48V. <strong>The</strong> machine’s 16.0kW (21.5hp) electro-hydraulic drive system is said to be equivalent to a 25-30kW (33.5-<br />

40.2hp) diesel engine. A torque of 5,500Nm allows the machine to achieve a gradeability of over 30%. Manoeuvrability<br />

is aided by an 80° steering angle and a controllable active oscillating front axle and individually height adjustable rear<br />

axle allow levelling on slopes.<br />

PB Lifttechnik now manufactures a<br />

total of 30 different scissor lifts. <strong>The</strong><br />

S151-19E is one of the Top19E/D series<br />

of 1.9m wide 4x4 machines which have<br />

working heights from 13.0m to 17.0m.<br />
