Bucket Trucks

Cherry pickers or bucket trucks, are built with a long boom that has a bucket attached at the end. This bucket area is where an employee can stand. Commonly, bucket trucks are used by landscapers and by utility workers. Landscapers normally utilize these machinery to trim trees.



Each and every bucket truck has a boom assembly mounted to a regular truck, that allows these vehicles to move fast on normal roads. Moreover, this increases the area that this machinery could service efficiently. This is particularly vital for power companies. Like for example, many of these businesses utilize cherry pickers to raise workers up so they could reach and work on transmission lines. The buckets should be inspected on a regular basis and correctly insulated since they are working near potential shock hazards.



Knuckle lifts or articulated boom lifts include a work platform mounted to an arm which can bend and reach obstacles. The base of the lift contains a turntable and is capable of turning the lift in a full circle. The base of the lift is mounted on wheels also for extra mobility.



Usually, the articulated boom lift is utilized for landscaping projects but is also useful for maintenance work on projects which are already completed. Projects which do not need easy access directly beneath the jobsite. These lifts could be utilized to repair piping or exterior electrical work, as well as areas which are hard to clean. Usually knuckle lifts are driven by the employee in the platform with the boom extended.
