Haulotte Group Australia has unveiled its latest rough terrain, all-purpose knuckleboom, the 10.4m HA120PX.
According to the company’s GM Mike Corbett, the new model is a versatile and highly manoeuvrable unit with a new oversize standard basket and boasts full multi-function controls with up to five simultaneous and proportional movements possible at any one time.
"Operationally, there is no loss of power or speed as you employ up to five simultaneous functions so there is a marked increase in speed and job efficiency as each task is completed that much quicker," he says.
Designed with zero tailswing and a narrow turning circle for working in cramped areas, the new model also features enhanced rough-terrain driving characteristics including 4WD, differential wheel lock and 26cm high ground clearance, suitable for work in civil engineering and on building and construction sites.

• safety rated for winds up to 45km/h
