AMERIQUIP EAGLE LAUNCHES SELF-PROPELLED TRAX LIFT FOR TIGHT JOB SITES

Ontario, CA -- Eagle by AmeriQuip has introduced its TRAX line of aerial lifts for use in small entry "backyard" areas.

These self-propelled units are gas-engine powered, and the TRAX moves via a pair of tracks to spread out its weight (up to 3,500 pounds/1,588 kg). Easy to operate, each drive track has independent controls, and the lifts come equipped with proportional hydraulic controls and positive bucket leveling.

TRAX lifts offer working heights of up to 40 feet (12.19 meters). Its width is under 36 inches (.92 meters), allowing it to be easily maneuvered through an open gate.

For ease of operation, the TRAX lifts include 360-degree rotation, hydraulic outriggers and ground level entry. Emergency descent valves and operation controls are located at the bucket and base.

The TRAX lifts are available in insulated as well as non-insulated models in order to meet customer use requirements.

TRAX lifts meet or exceed all applicable OSHA and ANSI standards. They are manufactured by AmeriQuip, a division of Mobile Tool International, Inc. AmeriQuip offers a full line of truck, trailer and scissors lifts in insulated and non-insulated models and at a variety of heights
