    Haulotte’s Redesigned HA61 RTJ Pro Rough Terrain Articulating Boom Lift Made to Reach the Unreachable

    April 22, 2024
    The HA61 RTJ Pro is equipped in standard with the Haulotte Dual Reach innovation to increase load and lift capacities.

    Haulotte has released the HA61 RTJ Pro rough terrain articulating boom new generation. This new version of the machine has been completely redesigned with a new design and smart engineering to meet the challenges of working up to 61 feet in the air.

    The HA61 RTJ Pro is designed for working on challenging outdoor terrain. With its articulated arm and its 39-foot horizontal outreach, the HA61 RTJ Pro is designed to reach inaccessible working areas. The HA61 RTJ Pro is equipped in standard with the Haulotte Dual Reach innovation to increase load and lift capacities.

    On a jobsite, there are many situations where users need to carry a lot of weight in the basket while working on sloping ground. To meet these challenges, Haulotte introduces the Dual Reach Innovation, now available as standard on the unit.

    The Haulotte Dual Reach increases the load in the basket up to 770 pounds and enables working on sloping ground up to 6 feet. Once Dual Reach is activated on the upper control box, the machine continues to elevate and work smoothly, limiting the number of back-and-forth movements between the ground and the working area. The Haulotte Dual Reach ensures greater safety and productivity on sloping grounds. When the Dual Reach is activated, the machine’s working envelope is automatically adapted to ensure perfect stability.

    Strong performance in rough terrain

    Equipped with standard 4-wheel drive and 4-wheel steering, the HA61 RTJ PRO moves easily over all types of terrain. Its oscillating axle allows the machine to adapt to all conditions, keeping the wheels in constant contact with the ground.

    The automatic differential lock provides extra traction on uneven or sloppy ground, allowing the operator to maintain full maneuverability and navigate obstacles without difficulty. The HA61 RTJ PRO retains its rough terrain capabilities thanks to the combination of a new engine and a new hydraulic architecture (axle drive).

    Customer safety is a top priority for Haulotte. The HA61 RTJ PRO is equipped with all Haulotte safety features in addition to the Haulotte Dual Reach innovation. Thanks to its proportional controls, the HA61 RTJ PRO offers precise, jerk-free driving and guarantees a smooth approach to the working area. The ergonomic control panel ensures operator comfort.

    The HA61 RTJ PRO features the Haulotte Activ'Lighting System. Ten LED spotlights enable the operator to load and unload the machine in complete safety in low-light conditions. The two new reflective stickers judiciously placed on the counterweight give the machine excellent visibility in urban environments or when co-activity is required. The Haulotte Activ'Shield Bar equipped the HA61 RTJ PRO as standard. In an entrapment situation, the operator is pushed against the bar, and the machine stops automatically. The wide clearance protects the operator from being crushed.

    Reduced carbon footprint and easier maintenance

    Aware of the environmental challenges facing the construction industry, Haulotte has chosen to adapt the motorization of the new HA61 RTJ PRO. Its new engine, rated at less than 18.5 kW, combined with optimized mechanical and hydraulic systems, delivers optimized torque while reducing fuel consumption by 35 percent to 50 percent. Haulotte engineers have also redesigned the machine's chassis and integrated an improved hydraulic architecture with axle drive. Thanks to these engineering improvements, the number of hydraulic hoses has been reduced by 35 percent, access to components and maintenance operations are facilitated, and downtime is reduced.

    Haulotte is committed to improving the environmental impact of its products. This concern is reflected not only in the conception and design of its products, but also in their use, thanks to numerous innovations and on-board technologies. The new HA61 RTJ PRO features a 97-percent recyclability rate.

     

    Tools for fleet management and diagnostics

    The HA61 RTJ PRO offers several on-board diagnostic solutions to facilitate fleet management and minimize downtime. These tools enable the collection of machine operating data, the resolution of fault code, and the rapid identification of troubleshooting:

    • The SHERPAL telematics solution, enables you to monitor the status of your machines remotely and in real time. It considerably reduces downtime by providing access to fault codes and actions to be taken. Telematics data are also very useful for organizing the routes of technical teams and preparing interventions.
    • The Haulotte Activ'Screen on-board diagnostics tool gives access to machine parameters and provides key information on machine status in real time.
    • These functions are also available via the Haulotte Diag mobile application, which also offers advanced diagnostics with detailed resolution procedures.
