GENIE® SX-180 KRANPUNKTEN PROVES ITS BENEFITS IN SWEDEN

The customer V Städ of lifting and access rental company Kranpunkten AB in Sweden used the first Genie® SX-180 self-propelled telescopic super boom lift as an alternative to a truck-mounted platform. This particular task demanded a machine combining a long horizontal outreach of 24 m (79 ft) above a line of trees, with the ability to reach the top floor windows at a height of 25 m (82 ft). Thomas Hallberg, member of the V Städ team summarizes: "For us, the SX-180 was certainly our best alternative to clean the windows of the Lindholmen building in Citadellen. In addition to reducing costs, our operator was also impressed by its smooth precision and found it surprisingly stable and fast to operate for a unit in this category. The windows will need cleaning next spring, so we'll definitely be using the SX-180 again.”
