Hinowa Lightlift 17.75

Hinowa has updated two of its most popular tracked booms to improve productivity for cleaning and maintenance contractors.

Engineers have added a water supply line to the platforms of both the Hinowa Lightlift 17.75 and 20.10 models. Sitting adjacent to the existing air pipe, this 0.5 in, (1 cm) diameter tube has a flow of 20.7 bar. This aims to speed up operations, such as cleaning roofs and gutters on public and commercial buildings.

Steve Couling, managing director of APS, the authorised UK distributor for Hinowa, says: "This update brings the 20.10 and 17.75 in line with the rest of Hinowa’s Performance IIIS series tracked booms.

"Fittings for air and water lines to the basket as standard will be widely welcomed by our growing customer base in the cleaning and facilities maintenance sectors."

The Hinowa Lightlift 20.10 spider boom provides a working height of up to 20.1 m and a maximum horizontal outreach of 9.7 m. Its lift capacity of up to 230 kg can accommodate two people with tools, further increasing productivity.

The Hinowa Lightlift 17.75 also has a platform load capacity of 230 kg available without restriction throughout its working envelope. This high-performance tracked boom offers a working height of up to 17 m, a maximum outreach of 7.5 m, and features a dual pantograph lifting mechanism which allows it to be used flush against a wall.
