APS spider lift trailer takes powered access further

Hinowa spider lifts are renowned for their flexibility and ability to access even the most challenging locations for working at height.

Yet there is another piece of equipment – the unsung hero of spider platform utilisation – that deserves recognition, the Access Platform Sales 3.5t transport trailer.

The British-made lightweight trailer can be used to take Hinowa spider lifts to locations that conventional flat-bed equipment transporters often find difficult to reach.

Closer to worksite

Certainly, in many cases, it means the spider lift can be taken much closer to the worksite, reducing tracking distances, and so enhancing productivity.

The skeleton trailer has been designed to be as light and as compact as possible, much like the spider lifts it is designed to carry, and can be towed behind a suitable van, 4x4 vehicle or pick-up truck.

Crucially, this allows Hinowa spider boom lifts to be towed by vehicles up to 3.5t in weight, which can be driven on a standard car driver’s licence.

Popular spider lift

Also, the trailer can be used to transport the Hinowa Lightlift 20.10 Performance IIIS spider cherry picker, one of the most popular in the range for its working height and compactness.

This makes the Hinowa Lightlift 20.10, which provides an impressive 20.1m of working height and 9.7m of outreach, the go-to spider cherry picker for tree surgeons, cleaning specialists and building inspection and maintenance contractors.

It is also a firm favourite with access hire and plant hire companies. They can deliver and collect the spider MEWPs quickly and easily to a wide range of customers, while promising them the least amount of fuss in terms of accessing worksites.

Reliable and robust

The trailer is compatible with all Hinowa spider cherry pickers up to the Lightlift 20.10. That is eight models, starting with the new Hinowa TeleCrawler 13 and including the popular Hinowa Lightlift 17.75 Performance IIIS.

The trailer is designed to be reliable and robust, as well as easy and safe to operate. View our quick guide to see some of these important features.
