Unleash the Ultra Boom
With the strongest boom in the industry — made from 100,000 psi
steel — the Ultra Series takes you higher with 135 ft of reach and
up to 1,000 lb capacity. More outreach above 50 ft means a greater work
envelope than any other boom lift. Exclusive Workstation in the
Sky® accessory packages boost productivity.
High-Reach Equipment

The Model HB-1030E aerial lift from Custom Equipment utilizes
a stable lift mechanism. The load capacity of the HB-1030E is listed at
340 kg, and the machine has a 2-person work platform size of 64 cm x 152
cm. To provide additional workspace, the machine has a 76 cm slide-out
deck extension. The machine utilizes a self-contained, single hose
hydraulic system and has dual rear-wheel electric drive and electric
steering.

Telescopic handler
The Manitou MT 8044 telescopic
handler lifts 7,000 pounds to its full lift height of 44 feet, and 8,000
pounds to 37 feet. It features a welded box-section-design boom.
Increased operating capacities are achieved without the use of
stabilizers or fluid-filled tires. For added stability, however,
stabilizers are an optional feature. Other design features include a
rugged frame with reinforced C-channels, internal wet disc brakes for
longer life and better stopping capability, and a negative parking brake
system.

resistor-type spark plug helps with starting. To increase operator
control, a durable Magura twist-grip throttle is positioned to maximize
hand and arm strength.

Drain cleaner
Ridge Tool introduces the
Ridgid K-400 drain cleaner, which features an improved portable design
designed for plumbing contractors to better navigate on the jobsite. The
fully integrated wheeled cart design and built-in telescoping handle

positioned above the drum for improved stability and balance, along with
added leg clearance during transport. With the capacity to store 100

cables at 16 feet per minute. The unit also features the Dyna-Thrust
bearing system, which is designed to reduce motor wear and extend the
life of the tool.

Rotary cutting head
Indeco North America
introduces the IRC series rotary cutting head to its line of non-impact
demolition attachments. It is a compact tool that can handle different
types of trenching and demolition jobs. The rotary cutting head is

excavator.

Pipe lift
The Kenco Pipe Lift is designed
for safe and simple handling of pipe ranging from 3-inch OD to 100-inch
OD. The scissor action of the machine allows each model to lift a wide
range of pipe sizes. Centering the lifter on the pipe is not necessary,
the manufacturer says. The Pipe Lift doubles production of pipe
installation versus methods using slings and cables. It eliminates the
need for a laborer on the ground.
