What type of hitch is used for towing, and is it easy to connect and disconnect?

It utilizes a standardized standardized 2-inch ball hitch coupler (Approx. 50mm).The ability to quickly connect and disconnect is key to its low logistics costs and high turnover rate.

Can the machine be transported using a standard pickup truck to reduce logistics costs?

Yes. The compact and lightweight design allows it to be easily towed behind a standard pickup truck, completely eliminating the need for commercial freight or specialized trailers. This high mobility enables rapid, one-man job site transfers, drastically reducing transit downtime while maximizing your equipment utilization and ROI.

What is the footprint of the outriggers?

The fully extended outrigger footprint is 13' 9" × 14' 9"(4.2 × 4.5 m), This compact setup allows the equipment to achieve maximum stability even in tight spaces, narrow driveways, or confined indoor job sites without sacrificing working height.

What is the maximum permissible working wind speed for the equipment?

The maximum permissible working wind speed for the LIFTSGLT towable boom lift is  24 mph (10.7 m/s). If actual wind speeds exceed this limit, the operator must immediately cease all operations, safely lower the platform to the stowed ground-level position, and retract the outriggers if necessary.

Can the lift be operated safely on uneven or muddy ground?


Yes, but proper safety measures must be taken. When deploying a towable boom lift on unpaved or soft surfaces—such as grass or mud—we strongly recommend placing heavy-duty Outrigger Pads beneath each stabilizer. This maximizes load distribution, drastically reduces ground bearing pressure, and effectively prevents stabilizer sinking or tipping hazards.

The Optimal Solution for Challenging Terrain:If your jobsites frequently involve muddy, soft, or rugged terrain, we highly recommend upgrading to a Crawler Spider Lift (such as our GCA66 series), which features rubber tracks designed for superior off-road stability and low ground pressure.


What are the platform dimensions?

The platform dimensions for the towable boom lift are 2' 11"(L) × 2' 4" (W)× 3' 7"(H)( 900 x 700 x 1100 mm).This compact yet optimized working basket provides ample space for a single operator along with their essential tools and equipment, while allowing easy navigation through tight aerial spaces.

What is the max platform capacity and its associated safety margin?

The maximum rated platform capacity is 440 lbs (200 kg), designed to safely accommodate up to two operators and their essential equipment. For ultimate peace of mind, GLT engineers have built a 20% structural redundancy safety margin into the boom and hydraulic systems beyond the rated capacity, ensuring absolute stability during high-altitude operations under full load.

What are the max working height and the max platform height?

LIFTSGLT offers a comprehensive range of towable boom lifts to meet various aerial access requirements:

Max working heights : 39' 4" to 72' 2"(12 m – 22 m )
