Personnel basket on crane

Fast and precise
With a personnel basket on your crane, you reach exactly the right height while the crane remains stable during the entire work process. You can quickly transport the personnel basket to the job required and it can be set up for work very quickly. It is often not possible to erect a scaffolding or use ladders for a job in high positions, and in these cases a crane with personnel basket is indispensable.

Safety first
A crane with personnel basket is equipped with special safety devices to be mounted on a truck with spring suspension and complies with the specific requirements for the safety level in the harmonized standard EN 280 and in the corresponding normative references. This is your guarantee for maximum safety and security when working in high positions.

Radio remote and EVS
The personnel basket is operated via the MAXI radio remote control which during use is placed in a bracket in the basket. Our personnel baskets are always sold with the EVS system (Electronic Vehicle Stability), which makes it possible to work without the need to fully extend the stabilizer beams. This means that you can work in narrow streets and on busy roads without having to seal off the area.

Crane or basket?
With the very same vehicle it is easy and simple to change from personnel basket to ordinary crane operation with hydraulic accessories such as hook, clamshell bucket, pallet fork, hoist and so on. This gives you an outstanding flexibility during daily work.  With this complete tool, you will be able to bid for all types of working tasks that require personnel lifting. This means new customers and new lines of business for you.

Quick change
It is easy and simple to change from ordinary crane operation to MEWP. When the crane is working as personnel lift, the intelligent system automatically activates the levelling system of the basket, in order to constantly keep it 100 % at the right level. The crane is also available with an extra fast system for removal and re-fitting of the personnel basket for an easy and smooth working day.

Emergency lowering device
An electro-hydraulic emergency pump with restrictor valve on the boom cylinder is supplied with the crane. This means that even if the hydraulic pressure should suddenly disappear, you can be sure - as an extra safety feature – that the basket gets back safely on the ground without any problems.
