Flexibility for tight spaces

The Essex-based hirer took delivery of the platform in July from The Spiderlift Company, UK distributors for CMC Aerial Platforms.

At 780mm wide, 1950mm high and with a length of 3.2m (without basket), the CMC S15 is extremely compact while still offering generous aerial capabilities - 7.0m maximum outreach and 200kg platform capacity.

The 15m spider lift can be used in shopping centres, facilities and building maintenance, lighting installation, window cleaning and estates management.

New hire manager Ben Dobson said: "The 3.2m length is a significant improvement on rival machines, giving extra flexibility in tight space and for moving the platform up steps and in lifts. This feature alone will make a big difference to user convenience and productivity.”

The S15 has hydraulic track width adjustment to 980mm for easy adaptation to ground conditions and weighs a transport friendly 1800kg.

It also boasts simple, intuitive controls, giving even less experienced operators confidence in using the platform’s capabilities.
