Key Features

Ground Control Station

Ground controls are located at the rear of the machine for easy operator access. The controls operate all machine functions: boom elevation, boom extension, turret rotation, winch drive, auger operation, pole claw operation, forward/reverse drives, steering, and outrigger extension.

Winch

A 3000 lb. planetary winch is mounted to the main boom. High strength nylon rope is used for insulating purposes.

Earth Auger

A hydraulically driven auger package PERMANENTLY attaches to the telescopic boom assembly for the installation of poles (auger and auger drive can be removed if required). The planetary auger drive can deliver up to 2500 foot-pounds of torque. An 18 inch auger is standard with the unit; however, other sizes are available as options.

Hydraulic Tool Outlets

Hydraulic tool outlets, controlled by a switch at the control station, are provided at ground level.

HOP (Hydraulic Overstress Protection)

The HOP system is a fully hydraulic system (no electrical connections) which protects the machine and operator from exceeding the working limits of the machine, thereby reducing the risk of tip-over or mechanical damage. When the working limits of the machine are exceeded, the HOP system will not allow the winch to be raised. In addition, the following boom functions are also blocked:

  1. Winch Up
  2. Boom 1 Extend
  3. Boom 2 Extend
  4. Boom Down

Pole Carrier Brackets (optional)

Two pole carrier brackets are mounted to the frame and quickly detach by removing a pin and sliding the carrier out of its mounting bracket. The mini-derrick easily transfers a utility pole from the trailer to the base-mounted brackets and carries the pole to job site.

Remote Radio Controls

The remote radio controls feature a full feathering, single-hand-held transmitter with 5 switches and a proportional trigger. The controls, which operate within a 350 foot radius of the machine, operate all primary boom functions and steering & drive controls.

Personnel Bucket (optional)

The 2' x 2' x 4' fiberglass bucket with liner and manual brake can easily be pinned and unpinned from the fiberglass boom tip.

Pole Guide (optional)

The hydraulic pole guide has multiple angle positions and is removable.

JIB (optional)

A detachable fiberglass jib includes HYDRAULIC angle adjustment. The jib length can be manually adjusted by simply removing a pin and sliding the jib in or out. The optional jib boom offers a total 41 feet of sheave height. The jib is ideal for hanging TRANSFORMERS on poles up to 45 feet high.
