Terex Straight Boom Lifts Anaheim

What Is a Boom Truck?

A boom truck uses a winch to recover heavy things or move materials to places which are normally inaccessible. Like for instance, they are normally utilized maneuvering supplies over a ditch or to a hillside or to reach the top of a building.



A big truck is outfitted with a boom winch. This is mounted in the bed of the truck and then it is capable of moving construction things and other equipment from street-side to a particular location. There is one more boom truck configuration that is equipped with a cherry picker. This version allows arborists to easily access treetops.



The Vehicle

Terex's Stinger BT 3063 model has a reach of 113-feet and is outfitted with both stabilizers and outriggers. A boom truck can vary from an aerial work platform that is moved by a hydraulic lifting mechanism which is mounted on the bed, up to a Class 8 tractor-trailer rig with a bucket. It is also possible to have a modified boom lift made to suit the particular needs of the buyer.



Cherry Picker

Bucket booms or cherry pickers allow workers to reach excellent heights. Normally, cherry pickers or buckets transport workers from the ground up to high areas such as treetops, the sides of a building, up utility poles or for fire department rescue and firefighting.



Location

The platform on the boom is operated from the truck's cab by remote. Either the boom is mounted on the bed of a big truck or on a separate trailer. Larger booms require outriggers that horizontally extend from the truck in order to level out and stabilize the crane during its use.



Controls

This type of boom truck has a cab-over-engine which has a control cluster that could move the boom from inside the cab. It is usually a panel in the boom itself on the side of the bed.
