FEATURED PRODUCT: I60

 

Our I60F HiReach is a 46kV insulated aerial work platform that features a 65′ working height and a 40″ x 60″ fiberglass two-man work platform with a 600 lb capacity. 

The three-section hydraulic boom offers smooth functionality and a precise ‘point and shoot’ ride. The work platform is hydraulically self-leveling and hydraulically rotating to get users to the work area safely and comfortably. 

As with our other HiReach products, the I60F is available with the main winch (3,650 or 2,000 lb), a jib winch in the work platform (500 lb), and full customization!

ABOUT THIS UNIT

This is a unit that was recently delivered to SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority). They will be using this to maintain catenary wiring on their train system. This unit is unique in that it has a crew cab chassis and is equipped with rail gear to drive on the rail tracks.

This unit is equipped with a 40”x60” fiberglass work platform with a material handling jib winch. The work platform is end-mounted to the boom tip for an extra side reach.

SEPTA relies on Elliott machines for their application due to the fact that they are built for extreme environments. The I60’s telescopic point and shoot boom minimize the tail swing of an articulated unit, making it ideal for the confined area it must work in.

SAFETY TIP: FALLING OBJECTS

This month we are focusing our safety tip on preventing objects from falling, tipping over, or swinging and reducing injury.

  1. Enforce regular inspections of equipment and work areas. Regularly inspecting tools, equipment, and work sites helps us identify potential hazards before they become dangerous and is a proactive step we can take to protect workers.
  2. Wear proper PPE on the job, including hard hats, safety glasses, and face shields. This will help reduce injury in the instance a hazard should occur.
  3. Limit access to work areas and ensure workers are always visible. Only workers who are properly trained on safety requirements should be allowed access to certain equipment and areas. Part of proper training includes wearing safety apparel and remaining visible to others at all times.
