Safe Operation
Renters must assess the job site for potential hazards before the equipment is positioned. Boom lifts should only be operated on firm, level surfaces capable of supporting the machine’s full weight; outriggers or stabilizers should be used on a solid foundation to prevent sinking or tipping. When using scaffolding, ensure the base plates or mudsills are set on stable ground rather than loose fill or unstable objects like bricks or concrete blocks.
To prevent structural failure or tip-overs, renters must strictly adhere to the maximum load capacities labeled on the equipment. This includes the combined weight of the workers, tools, and materials. Additionally, renters should monitor local weather conditions closely; OSHA guidelines generally recommend grounding aerial lifts and clearing scaffolding platforms when wind speeds exceed 30 mph or during any lightning activity to ensure the safety of all personnel on-site.
Before any work begins, we strongly recommend that your team pays close attention to the safety briefing and equipment walkthrough provided by Reyest Rental employees. Our staff is trained to highlight the specific nuances, emergency descent systems, and control configurations of each unit to ensure your operators are fully prepared before the wheels ever leave the ground.
Which Platform to Choose?
For jobs on sensitive surfaces or in confined areas, the 62′ Palazzani tracked boom lift is the superior choice. Its specialized tracks distribute weight to protect flooring or navigate soft outdoor terrain, while the remote control operation allows operators to maneuver the unit through narrow passages or around obstacles from a safe distance with high precision.
If your project involves multiple locations or requires rapid setup for heights up to 35 feet, the towable boom lift offers the best efficiency. It is designed for easy transport between sites using a standard hitch, making it ideal for residential maintenance, painting, or light commercial work where a heavy self-propelled unit isn’t necessary.
When the job requires a stable, wide-area platform for multiple workers or heavy materials at lower heights, scaffolding is the most reliable option. Using 6 x 6 x 2-1/2 foot sections, you can customize a rigid vertical structure that provides a consistent walk-board for masonry, siding, or ceiling installs where a mechanical lift’s basket might be too restrictive.
