The Snorkel Speed Level is available in two
models - in 26 and 30 foot height capacities with
an updated drive system. This sigma lift offers
automatic self-levelling at gradients of up to 50%,
without the need for stabilisers or outriggers.
The drive system has been improved through its
parallel hydraulic circuit operation allowing almost
double the speed and torque of older speed level
models and boasts genuine four wheel drive to get
across slippery, wet, undulated surface conditions.
Snorkel’s patented self-levelling system allows
for fast and safe platform levelling on uneven
ground conditions, delivering 9° tilt angle
front-to-back and 13° tilt angle side-to-side
compound slope levelling capability.
The SL26SL provides a safe working load
of 680kg and a working height of 10m with
a spacious 1.7m x 3.7m platform. The SL30SL
provides a working height of up to 11m, on a
spacious 1.7m x 4.2m high grip deck, with lift
capacity of 590kg.
For more information call 1300 900 700.
