JLG provides the 600 Series of articulating booms. These models feature an optional narrow chassis for access to confined places. The 600 Series showcases the industry's best work envelope; 26 feet, 7 inches or 8.1 m up and over height and a horizontal outreach of 39 feet, 9 inches or 12.12 m. These kinds of machinery provide dual rated capacities of 500 pounds and 1000 pounds too. Along with a 60 foot platform height, these units would offer you with the strength and the reach capacity you require no matter what type of task has to be done.
To give you excellent drive and performance on rough terrain, these articulating booms come with standard oscillating axle and optional 4-wheel drive. Giving unmatched agility and tight spaces, are the optional 4-wheel steer and 3-position switch. The platform controls are better and have been redesigned so as to be smoother for job site productivity and offer more controlled operation.
Raising Safety Standards for Aircraft Maintenance
The Model 740AJ is the right machine for working on any size of aircraft. This unit offers 74 feet or 22.6 m of height and over 15 m or fifty one feet of outreach. It includes many safety features which you need when performing maintenance. The Fall Arrest platform can be added in order to enable you to exit the platform and move a complete 270 degrees around the platform in a radius of 6 feet, and continue to have fall protection whilst doing so.
One more feature option is the Soft Touch System. This reduces the risk of any accidental contact and damage in aircraft maintenance. This package option offers a suspended padded rail that surrounds the platform basket. There are proximity sensors that de-activate platform movement functions and the driver is alerted if the basket comes too close to the aircraft surface.
Advantages
The articulating jib will allow the operator better access and positioning to all external surfaces on any kind of aircraft. This particular jib could be utilized in both uncontrolled and controlled areas because of steady winds, jet blast standards of 80 mph and 90 mph gusts. An optional on-board air compressor allows the use of pneumatic-powered hand tools. When performing maintenance outside of the platform, the Fall Arrest adds safety.
In order to make the driver as safe as possible, while also improving the machines overall effectiveness, JLG has designed numerous great feature options.
