Spider lift hire in Manchester
A boom lift on rubber tracks that works from levelled outriggers. The narrowest models pass a garden gate, and the tracks cross lawns and rough ground.
Because a spider lift is a boom-type platform on tracks, it is often called a tracked cherry picker. Operators need IPAF category 1b.
