26m Diesel Articulated Boom Lift
Built for performance, safety and efficiency, the Diesel Articulating Boom Lift is engineered to provide industry-leading reach, flexibility, and control in demanding environments.
- Diesel Engine: 74 HP
Superior Reach, Flexibility and Stability for Demanding Worksites
The diesel articulating boom lift is the ideal access solution for projects that require both height and flexibility. With an impressive reach of up to 26.5 metres, this diesel-powered boom lift is perfect for a wide range of outdoor applications, from construction to maintenance and installations.
It offers precise positioning with exceptional stability and industry-leading up-and-over reach. With its compact design, tight turning radius, and minimal tailswing, it’s ideal for confined job sites.
Designed with multiple pivot points, this articulating boom allows you to manoeuvre around obstacles with ease, accessing hard-to-reach elevated areas where other lifts may struggle. Whether you’re performing building maintenance or high-elevation installations, this machine delivers the flexibility and performance required.
Powered by a robust diesel engine, this lift is built to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, rough terrain, and heavy-duty site demands. Operators benefit from a stable, high-capacity platform and smooth controls for maximum efficiency and safety.
SpeedyReach™ System: Skyjack’s SJ85 AJ features boom geometry that lets the operator return to the same working height after lowering the main boom—without resetting the riser. This improves jobsite productivity by reducing unnecessary movements and simplifying repositioning.
Each piece of machinery equipment is delivered/ collected by our trained Errigal Plant Hire experts, who will load and unload plant safely from our lorries & vans onto your site.
Once we have the equipment delivered to you, a familiarisation handover will take place to make sure your operatives are aware of the machines basic functions and any safety issues.
This service is also standard practice in our depots where trained staff will demonstrate any hired machine at point of collection.
It’s our priority to make sure you get the job at hand done efficiently, and with the upmost safety of your operatives in mind.
When hiring any piece of quality equipment from Errigal Plant Hire you can be safe in the knowledge that it has been checked and tested by one of our technicians. The equipment will be started and run before your hire to ensure that the machine arrives on site in perfect working order. A member of our team will run the machine demonstrating all it’s functions and safety features before each hire, although we do advise that all customers read the manufacturers operating instructions before use.
