1. Terex Utilities line of lifts

Terex Utilities, Inc. manufactures a complete line of products built specifically to assist with tree-trimming tasks. Products range from a unit built to access areas in backyards to other, more traditional tree-trimming units. The Terex Utilities backyard aerial device can get into those difficult-to-reach areas due to its overall travel width of less than 3 feet. Terex Utilities' XT Series is capable of reaching 75 feet with the addition of a state-of-the-art transverse lift.

2. JLG Tow-Pro Model T350 towable boom lift

The Tow-Pro Model T350 boom lift from JLG Industries has 500-pound platform capacity, maximum 35-foot platform height and 410-degree non-continuous boom rotation. The trailer-mounted boom lift has a towing speed up to 65 mph. The boom lift features an aluminum platform positioned over the tow bar when the machine is in the stowed configuration, so it is protected from accidental damage when the towing vehicle is backed up or if boom lift is struck from behind while being towed. The Tow-Pro boom lift also has hydraulic outriggers that are simultaneously extended and level the platform in less than a minute.

3. Teupen LEO 25T spider lift

Teupen America announced the availability of the newly redesigned Teupen LEO 25T spider lift. New for 2006 are improved and faster fly-by-wire aircraft technology hydraulic proportional controls for silky smooth lift movement. Micro computer fuzzy logic fail safe control system monitors the lift and keeps the operator inside safety parameters, automatically stopping the lift if it detects improper unit operation. Lift side reach has been increased to 51 feet, from the previous 40 feet of reach. New basket drive control system allows operator to drive lift tracks directly from the basket control station, then set outriggers without leaving the basket.

4. Altec AT37-GR aerial device

The Altec AT37-GR is an aerial device mounted on a versatile off-road carrier with a working height of 41 feet and platform capacity to 400 pounds. It is designed to tackle severe off-road conditions. The loaded carrier is rated for driving on 10-degree slopes side-to-side and climbing 15-degree slopes in forward and reverse directions. The 21-ply all-terrain tires minimize ground pressure for driving across lawns, but can easily deflect objects that would puncture regular turf tires. Equipped with two sets of radial outriggers, the unit sets up quickly and can be operated on slopes of up to 5 degrees.

5. Niftylift Nifty SD64

One of Nifty's newest, the SD64 offers a platform height of 63 feet and outreach of more than 43 feet. Its 3-foot-8-inch platform provides plenty of room for tools and platform rotation with a 150-degree jib maximizes accuracy when positioning. Low-weight chassis design and special turf tires allow the SD64 to work on grass without causing damage, and onsite travel times are greatly reduced due to its high travel speed. The SD64's features make it ideal for applications such as estate maintenance or tree care work with options such as 4-wheel-steer and 4WD.
