Gehl Telescopic Boom Lifts For Sale

A "Telescopic Boom" in the context of a Boom Lift is an aerial work platform that features a straight, extendable arm, acting as the "boom," with a basket or platform on its end. Also known as stick booms or straight booms, telescopic boom lifts can extend over 120 feet in the air, making them a popular choice for jobs that require maximum horizontal or vertical outreach, such as in construction, maintenance, and event production. These types of lifts notably differ from articulating booms, which have a bend or "knuckle" that allows additional maneuverability but less overall reach. Some of the most popular types of telescopic boom lifts include diesel, electric, and hybrid models. When considering purchasing a telescopic boom lift, it is important to assess the lift height, necessary reach, the terrain it will be used on, and power source. All these considerations could help in choosing the perfect type for the job, which not only paves the way for successful operations but also significantly enhances safety in the workplace.
