The Challenge of Extreme Height Access
Working at extreme heights presents significant challenges for operators across numerous industries. Limited access, restricted manoeuvrability, and safety concerns can severely impact productivity and increase project timelines. Without the right equipment, reaching heights above 60 metres often requires costly scaffolding, multiple machines, or dangerous workarounds that compromise safety standards and increase liability.
These limitations force teams to make difficult compromises between reach, safety, and efficiency. The inability to access difficult-to-reach areas means projects take longer, require more labour, and ultimately cost more to complete. For specialised work requiring precision at extreme heights, traditional access platforms simply fall short.
The Ruthmann Steiger T 650 HF eliminates these compromises by providing unmatched capabilities in a single, reliable platform. With its exceptional 65-metre working height and world-leading 43-metre horizontal outreach, it delivers access to previously unreachable areas safely and efficiently. The combination of multi-bevelled boom technology, ‘standing’ working basket design, and below-ground capabilities makes this aerial work platform the definitive solution for the most demanding elevated work applications.
When time, safety, and efficiency matter, the T 650 HF delivers exactly what you need – that’s why we call it an outreach world champion!
Unrivalled Outreach Capability
The Ruthmann Steiger T 650 HF is a leader in aerial access and sets the industry standard with its remarkable 43-metre horizontal outreach – a capability that transforms previously inaccessible areas into safely reachable workspaces. This exceptional reach eliminates the need for multiple machine setups or costly alternative access methods, dramatically improving operational efficiency and reducing project timelines. For teams working on complex structures, industrial facilities, or challenging urban environments, this outreach capability provides a competitive advantage that directly impacts the bottom line.
Safe Working Positions
Featuring advanced multi-bevelled boom technology and a ‘standing’ working basket design, the Ruthmann Steiger T 650 HF excels at both conventional overhead access and specialised applications requiring unusual approaches. The platform’s 180° swivelling upper boom and 220° swivelling jib enable operators to navigate complex structural obstacles with precision. This flexibility allows for perfect ‘under and up’ operations as well as comprehensive ‘up and over and back’ manoeuvring during lowered deployment, making it the ideal solution for the most technically demanding elevated work challenges.
Operational Efficiency Features
The Ruthmann Steiger T 650 HF incorporates numerous features designed to maximise productivity and minimise downtime. The automatic one-touch set-up and retraction mechanism significantly reduces deployment time, while the hydraulically extendable aluminium working cage provides flexible workspace options based on project requirements. With its generous 600kg load capacity, teams can bring all necessary tools and materials in a single lift, eliminating time-consuming trips up and down. The maintenance-friendly boom system ensures maximum uptime, while the height performance technology optimises working capabilities across the platform’s impressive operational envelope.

Reliable MAN Truck
The Ruthmann Steiger T 650 HF comes mounted on a premium MAN chassis, providing the robust foundation essential for stable operation at extreme heights. This high-performance vehicle platform delivers reliable power, exceptional stability during deployment, and smooth road performance during transit between job sites. The MAN truck offers superior durability with a permissible total weight exceeding 32,000 kg, ensuring the structural integrity needed to support the platform’s impressive capabilities. With a total vehicle length of 11.99 metres and height under 3.99 metres, the unit remains transportable on standard roads despite its extraordinary working capabilities.
Industry Applications for the Steiger T 650 HF
The Ruthmann Steiger T 650 HF delivers exceptional performance across multiple sectors including telecommunications, utilities, construction, and facilities maintenance. Its unrivalled height and outreach make it ideal for maintaining high-rise buildings, industrial chimneys, and telecommunications towers. The platform excels in arboriculture applications where precision is critical for delicate tree care operations at significant heights. Council and local authority teams benefit from its versatility for street lighting, public works, and emergency response situations. For utility companies, the substantial working capacity and extended reach ensure safe and efficient maintenance of power lines and infrastructure, even in challenging terrain or confined urban environments.
“The T 650 HF has completely transformed our high-rise maintenance operations. Before, we relied on multiple machines and complicated access arrangements, which cost us time and money. Now, we can reach areas we previously thought impossible with a single setup. It’s cut our project timelines by nearly 40% and significantly improved our safety record. Best investment we’ve made in years.” – Operations Director
