Versalift bucket elevators provide an additional two feet of vertical reach to linemen operating at the platform. While the two feet of additional reach don’t seem to add significant height to the overall reach of a Versalift unit, operators love the bucket elevator because it makes the platform exceptionally maneuverable, and it allows them to position themselves in the most advantageous place to safely and effectively do their jobs.
Versalift Bucket Elevators – what do they do?
Bucket elevators extend the vertical reach of a unit by two feet, but what makes them so valuable is that the last two feet of vertical reach don’t involve moving the boom. Boom movement can be hazardous in that it can allow contact between the boom tip and an electrified line. The two feet of additional vertical reach provided by a bucket elevator makes maneuvering the platform from the upper controls a much easier job. Essentially, it allows a lineman to make final adjustments to their position without having to move the boom.
