Founded by the Marti family in 2004, Bluelift is an Italian tracked spider lift manufacturer which became Ruthmann Italia in 2016, a division of the Ruthmann Group. Visit www.ahernaustralia.com.au/bluelift/ Access the inaccessible with the new Bluelift SA31 As the exclusive distributor for Ruthmann Bluelift tracked spider lifts in Australia, Ahern Australia has announced the release of the Bluelift SA31 which is designed specifically for reaching inaccessible working areas. The SA31 is a high specification tracked spider lift that delivers up to 31m working height, and up to a 17.3m outreach (120kg platform capacity) with a stowed width of 1m. In addition, a stowed height of less than 2m means the SA31 will easily pass through a single industrial door, a first for the tracked spider lift industry according to Ahern. A short overall length ensures the SA31 can be manoeuvred in tight spaces and winding corridors. The SA31 also benefits from a low overall weight of 4,700kg. This delivers a very low ground pressure when in drive mode using the non-marking rubber tracks, and also lower pressure when using the stabiliser legs. This can be further reduced with the use of newly developed stabiliser plates, designed for the Bluelift SA31. The Bluelift SA31 is now available to order from Ahern Australia, with deliveries to commence in 2019. Ahern Australia offers the full- line of Ruthmann Bluelift tracked spider lifts, including the Bluelift SA16 spider lift shown at HIRE18 fitted with the optional BlueHybrid package. The high specification SA16 delivers a 15.8m maximum working height, with a horizontal outreach of 7.4m. Capable of lifting up to 230kg, the Bluelift SA16 is 0.78m wide, has a compact 3m x 3m outrigger footprint, and weighs 1,900kg. All Ruthmann Bluelift products will be sold and serviced by AhernAustralia which has been factory trained by Ruthmann Italia to provide the highest levels of customer Ahern Australia has announced the release of the Bluelift SA31 tracked spider lift 35 ACCESS IN ACTION • NOVEMBER 2018
