Skyjack’s next generation vertical mast lifts provide a quiet and versatile package with zero emissions.
With a new mast design, direct AC electric drive, capacity to be driven at full height and fewer hydraulic connection points, the SJ12 E, SJ16 E and SJ20 E vertical mast lifts have higher duty cycle expectations. Exceptional manoeuvrability and Skyjack’s unique traversing platform make the masts an ideal choice for a wide range of indoor and outdoor construction, maintenance and industrial applications.
The updated vertical mast lifts feature the new green ECO label accompanied by an ECO Matrix, detailing sustainability benefits over previous models. Electric drive, signified by the “E” in the names, features a dual direct drive AC electric motor and gearbox combination, providing up to 30 per cent improvement in duty cycles. The newest line also offers 15 per cent operational carbon savings when compared to the previous model.
Designed with an eye to reduced maintenance, such as the strategic elimination of wear items like chains and sheaves, and 70 per cent less hydraulic connections, low cost of ownership provides a compelling ROI for rental houses. The control system is also updated to be CAN-enabled with an onboard diagnostic display in simple language readouts.
Like previous Skyjack vertical masts, the Next Generation models keep the telescopic mast at the rear which provides a totally unrestricted view from the front facing control box. This layout also moves the steering wheels away from the mast which offers excellent manoeuvrability with zero inside steering radius.
