These kinds of machinery offer dual rated capacities of 1000 pounds and 500 pounds as well. Along with a 60 foot platform height, these models will provide you with the power and the reach capacity you require no matter what job has to be completed.
The standard oscillating axle and optional 4-wheel drive give you exceptional performance and drive on rough terrain. The 3-position switch and optional 4-wheel steer provides unmatched agility in tight spaces. The platform controls are improved and have been redesigned in order to be smoother for job site productivity and offer more controlled operation.
Raising Safety Standards for Aircraft Maintenance
The Model 740AJ is the right machinery for working on any aircraft size. This model provides 22.6 m or 74 feet of height and more than fifteen m or 51 feet of outreach. It includes numerous safety features that you need when performing maintenance. The Fall Arrest platform can be added so as to allow you to exit the platform and move a complete 270 degrees around the platform within a radius of 6 feet, and still have fall protection whilst doing so.
The Soft Touch System is another optional features that will help to lessen any damage to the machinery or risk of any accidental contact in aircraft maintenance. This optional package provides a suspended padded rail which surrounds the platform basket. There are proximity sensors that de-activate platform movement functions and the operator is alerted if the basket comes too near the aircraft surface.
Advantages
The articulating jib will enable the operator better access and positioning to all external surfaces on any kind of aircraft. This particular jib can be used in both uncontrolled and controlled areas because of steady winds, 90 mph gusts and jet blast standards of 80 mph. An optional on-board air compressor enables the use of pneumatic-powered hand tools. The Fall Arrest adds safety when performing maintenance outside of the platform.
In order to make the operator as safe as possible, while also improving the machinery overall efficiency, JLG has made numerous great feature options.
