CMC’s Compact Tracked Aerial Lift Designed for Arborcare, Inside and Outside Building Maintenance Work
The newly introduced CMC 65L is a compact tracked aerial lift, capable of supporting a maximum weight of 507 pounds through to a maximum working height of more than 65 feet and maximum lateral reach of 34 feet. The 65L is a solution for a variety of arbor care tasks, as well as virtually any type of both indoor and outdoor maintenance needs. Workers can leverage an approximately 90° basket rotation (two-man basket) paired with about an 180° turret rotation to access even difficult-to-reach areas.
Benefitting from narrow dimensions and a modest footprint, this model can pass through a 36-inch-wide opening, self-level on sloped surfaces, and safely reach maximum height in a matter of seconds. With a relatively light footprint (only 6,569 pounds), the CMC 65L can safely operate atop delicate flooring surfaces such as finished hardwood, tile, or marble – making it good for work within museums, gymnasiums, or shopping malls. The remarkably low PSI exerted by the 65L also drastically reduces potential damage to landscaping, concrete, or ground surfaces when compared to other options available on the market today.
Standard features include proportional hydraulic controls, radio remote controls, and protective covers for the outrigger cylinders. The unit is powered by a Honda iGX390 Gas Engine, and electric power is available for emission-free indoor use.
With such an expansive degree of accessibility and versatility, the compact CMD 65L negates the need for a scissor lift, bucket truck, or boom lift, altogether, further reducing overall cost and storage requirements.
