What is a diesel boom lift and how does it work?

Diesel boom lifts are considered to be amongst the powerful types of boom lift on the market. In general, they are characterised by a secure standing platform that is lifted into the air by either a straight or articulated hydraulic arm. They are mostly used to complete work at various heights or hard-to-reach places.

How much weight can a diesel boom lift safely lift?

The amount of weight that a diesel boom lift can safely carry depends on the make and model of the machinery. However, the most powerful boom lifts are capable of managing up to 227kg.

What is the maximum working height of a diesel boom lift?

There is a wide variety of maximum working heights as different diesel boom lifts are best suited to different types of projects. But the largest and most powerful models can reach up to a height of 45m.

Are diesel boom lifts suitable for rough or uneven terrain?

Diesel boom lifts are ideal for handling rough or uneven terrain. This is mainly due to their 4-wheel drive capabilities and their high gradability ranges. Diesel engines are also generally more powerful and, coupled with wider and more rugged tyres, a diesel boom lift can handle tough conditions comfortably.

How do diesel boom lifts compare to electric boom lifts in terms of performance?

Both electric and diesel boom lifts are capable of high levels of performance and reliability. However, diesel engines are better suited for extended use and won’t need to recharge, which can get quite time-consuming and expensive. They are generally more powerful, but they are far less efficient in terms of emissions.
