JLG Power Towers unveils safety innovations

At stand 3/F60 and 3/E66, visitors can learn more about practical approaches and modern low-level access equipment designed to assist organisations in meeting their work at height policies and procedures.

New material handling accessories for fitout tasks

At the Health and Safety Event, visitors will be among the first to view new and innovative material handling accessories for the Power Tower and Power Tower Duo models, platforms which can reach up to 5.0m working height. The new board and pipe carrier accessories have been developed to encourage more guided handling and positioning of plasterboard, pipework, and similar materials at height. 

A new anti-climb guard option can complement the new accessories. This cage-like structure can be added to the Power Tower Duo platform with the board carrier option. It adds an extra solution for helping to manage safe systems of work as its designed to discourage unauthorised access to the platform and to support the containment of items or tools.

Equipment fitted with the new accessory can still pass through most standard doorways, due to the board tray’s foldaway design. Ideal for maintenance and construction fit-out tasks, the new accessories support organisations in promoting repeatable ways of working that can help to minimise physical strain and promote task consistency.

Low level access solutions for confined and restricted areas

JLG Power Towers will also highlight its compact solutions for confined space working. The Nano 30CS and Power Tower CS are push around low-level access platforms designed to support stable working at height in tight or awkward areas. With working heights up to 4.95 m for the Nano 30CS and 5.0 m for the Power Tower CS, a lightweight design, slim footprint, and 360° manoeuvrability, they are easy to position and is designed to allow operatives to work comfortably through ceiling tiles as small as 60 x 60 cm. 

Featuring fully guarded, robust non-slip platforms, self-locking front wheels and simple push-button elevation, they are designed to provide a reliable, controlled solution that helps reduce risk and is designed to discourage teams from using improvised and, in some cases, unsafe methods when working above ceiling height. 

Discover LiftPod – the world’s first Quick Fold Lift

As well as learning about JLG Power Towers at the event, visitors to the JLG Industries stand can also discover more about LiftPod, the world’s first Quick Fold Lift.
