It can be difficult to decide which construction lift is right for your job when looking for one. You should also consider how the machine will move, the weight capacity, the site conditions, and the available power.
- Certain lifts are better suited to small spaces than others. A wide-open job site will require a different aerial lift than tall buildings with narrow doorways.
- For overload prevention, consider how many workers and equipment will be loaded on the aerial platform.
- An aerial lift can either be single-masted or have multiple masts. Multiple mast machines can move vertically and horizontally, while single mast machines can only move vertically.
- A construction lift can be powered by a variety of power sources. Diesel motors are popular due to their availability and torque. If you are working indoors, electric motors are quieter and emit no emissions. You can also choose dual-fuel motors for more flexibility.
- Are your job site conditions steep and tricky or delicate and soft? Depending on the conditions, you will need a specific type of lift. Likewise, tires are an integral part of any vehicle.
Construction lifts and boom lifts are used in a variety of applications. With aerial lifts that can lift individuals up to 12 feet or a group of workers up to 150 feet, there are plenty of options available. In order to select the right boom lift for your needs, you should consider the strengths of each type of boom lift.
