Dealing with inaccurate, inefficient ways to access high places?

If you are in the telecoms, utilities, security, or street lighting business, you know the pain of unreliable access platforms – limited outreach coupled with vehicles that cannot service strenuous work sites. Every hour of downtime translates to time, money, and annoyed consumers. As if that was not enough, restrictive delimitations of working areas combined with poor controls add to your dissatisfaction.

It’s time to invest in a van-mounted access platform that offers high performance while meeting the required height and outreach specifications.

It’s time to consider the Versalift VDTL-170-F.

Reach and Stability

The Versalift VDTL-170-F is built for professionals who require maximum outreach and height, all while maintaining the highest level of stability. This platform boasts an incredible operating height of 17.3m and an extension range of 15.3m. With such remarkable stats, operators can reach even the most challenging places. The ultra-high strength steel booms facilitate greater reach and ensure rigidity by minimising flex during movements surpassing 180 degrees. The LMC (Load Moment Control) system automatically modifies outreach based on basket load, providing the safest and most effective conditions at all times.

Efficiency and Ease of Use

The VDTL-170-F turret and knuckle tail swing operate within the vicinity of the vehicle mirrors – boosting efficiency while allowing the operator to work in tight spots. The workshop interior option allows for convenient tool and equipment storage, while the bucket rotator (2×90°) option provides extra freedom and flexibility when transforming the van into a mobile workspace.

Built for Safety and Durability

The VDTL-170-F is designed with safety as a top priority. In case of an emergency, operators can control it from the ground, ensuring work can continue smoothly. With optional 1kV insulation, it allows safe operation on low-voltage electrical lines, making it perfect for utility and streetlighting work. Built to handle tough conditions, its chassis and platform are treated with high-quality rust protection, while sealed connectors and a tough powder-coated finish help extend its lifespan. This MEWP is engineered to keep you working safely, efficiently, and with minimal downtime.
