Self Propelled Boom Lift (articulating)

Articulating Boom Lifts (34', 45', 60')

Articulating boom lifts—or "knuckle booms"—provide the maximum versatility for complex jobsites. Their multiple hinged sections allow the platform to navigate "up and over" obstacles like rooflines, machinery, or structural joists, ensuring your crew can reach difficult work areas that straight booms cannot access.

Configuration & Reach

• 34' Class (Compact): Designed for tight spaces and sensitive surfaces. These units offer a 40' working height and roughly 20'–22' of horizontal outreach. Ideal for residential work and indoor facility maintenance.
• 45' Class (Standard): The industry's most versatile reach, providing a 51' working height and 25' of horizontal outreach. These models can hinge over obstacles up to 24' high, making them perfect for general construction and multi-story maintenance.
• 60' Class (High Reach): Engineered for large-scale commercial projects, offering a 66' working height and a massive 40' of horizontal reach. These units often feature zero tailswing, allowing the machine to rotate within its own footprint for safe operation in narrow alleys.

Key Features

• Articulating Jib: Most models include a secondary 5' boom at the end of the main arm, providing 135° to 144° of vertical rotation for precise platform positioning.
• Maneuverability: Available with 4WD and oscillating axles for rugged exterior terrain, or narrow-chassis electric DC drive for quiet, emission-free indoor use.
• High Capacity Options: Standard units support 500 lbs, but High Capacity (HC/XC) models are available with an unrestricted 660 lb to 1,000 lb rating for heavy tools and multi-person crews.
• Gradeability: Built to handle the jobsite, these machines are typically rated for 30% to 45% slopes, allowing for easy loading and navigation on uneven ground.
