The 135-RJ features a Set-In-Place axle extension that enables axle deployment without requiring machine movement or jacks, allowing set-up to occur in a smaller space, while minimizing tire wear or damage to the ground surface. Whether axles are extended or retracted, the 135-RJ maintains full-drive capability with its four steering modes and 45m percent gradeability. This high-capacity boom lift comes in with a gross vehicle weight of 44,775 pounds and 39-foot stowed length which enables transport without permits, lowering acquisition and operating costs, saving time and increasing delivery flexibility.
The 135-RJ features a crane-style multi-keel boom design that maximizes rigidity and offers a very comfortable work platform that reaches an impressive 141-foot) working height and 80-foot outreach. Coupled with an 8-foot multi-directional jib, the 135-RJ delivers exceptional reach versatility. Its design supports a maximum capacity of 900 pounds up to full height or to 70-foot outreach and to 60-degree jib rotation. Even at its maximum 80-foot outreach, this boom lift is still able to offer an industry-best for rotating jib machines with an unrestricted capacity of 600 pounds and 120°-degree jib rotation providing an optimal dual-capacity solution.
Optimized for maneuverability, the 135-RJ offers crab steer, 4-wheel steer, 2-wheel front, and 2-wheel rear steering as standard, ensuring optimal navigation and chassis positioning on-site. Engineered for operator productivity, the 135-RJ incorporates multi-function controllers, minimizing the time to full extension. The intuitive platform design eliminates the need for a footswitch, streamlining operation and enhancing ergonomics. Superior rough-terrain performance is achieved with a Deutz 74-horsepower diesel engine and the 4-wheel-drive traction system’s hydraulic differential lock, directing power to all four wheels to handle uneven terrain. Standard foam-filled rough terrain tires further reinforce traction, stability, and durability in demanding conditions.
Shipments will begin in April 2025.
