38 ACCESS IN ACTION • NOVEMBER 2017 ACCESS in ACTION – TRAILER & TRUCK MOUNTED The Omme Lifts have all steel booms for strength and low maintenance and a 230kg safe working load and popular Z-style boom design with vertical lift. Featuring fly jib with platform rotation; hydraulically expanding track system; non-marking rubber tracks; radio control drive; auto level stabiliser legs; and removable platform for tight access, the Omme 1800RX ensures flexibility, Monitor Lift’s General Manager, Ben Joyce said. “This machine reduces to 790mm wide for access through doorways and into confined areas and with its 1.99m stowed height it can be loaded onto a plant trailer and pulled behind any vehicle with a 3.5 tonne tow capacity,” Ben said. “With the tracks expanded for extra stability, the 1800RX is a true all terrain machine. The soft tracks are gentle on all surfaces and the long footprint reduces the ground pressure to provide excellent flotation on soft or boggy ground. “Powered by a Kubota diesel or a Honda petrol engine, along with electric and battery options, the Omme 1800RX can be operated indoors or outdoors. “Reaching a working height of 18m, with an up-and-over height of 6m, the new pantograph design boom provides excellent up and over reach for flexibility." New spider lift and improved 22m spider built for arbor market Monitor Lifts’ new 18m Spider Lift, the Omme 1800RX Spider Lift, has 10m horizontal reach, with unrestricted 230kg swivel and built with the arborist in mind. Monitor Lifts’ improved 22m Spider Lift, the 2210 EVO, popular in the tree and arbor industry since 2009, recently received some enhancements making it one of the best performing Spider Lifts in its class, Ben said. The 2210 EVO features 230kg SWL; twin speed drive to increase productivity; dual position outrigger legs for versatile setup options; auto level for accuracy and ease of operation; fly jib and platform rotation for accurate positioning; 21.7m max working height; 10.3m max working outreach; non-marking rubber tracks included at no charge if required; radio control operation; 14hp twin cylinder Kubota diesel engine; and expandable tracks that go ‘out and down’ to increase ground clearance and departure angle. Electric / hybrid systems available include a 240 volt ‘plug-in’ or 24 volt ‘on- board’ batteries. “With excellent ‘up and over’ reach, combined with the quick and smooth boom speeds, owners report faster and safer tree removal times,” Ben said. “The compact dimensions and light- weight design also allows them to use this spider in difficult and confined areas, and on soft or uneven terrain. “The Monitor 2210 EVO Spider Lift is available with a tilt bed tri-axle trailer, The VST52I has a working height reach of up to 16.9m but can still be fitted to the same size cab chassis as its little brother (min GVM 12T).
