Raising Safety Standards for Aircraft Maintenance
The Model 740AJ is the ideal machinery for working on any aircraft size. This unit provides 22.6 m or 74 feet of height and over 15 m or 51 feet of outreach. It includes numerous safety features which you require when performing maintenance. The Fall Arrest platform can be included in order to enable you to exit the platform and move an entire 270 degrees around the platform within a radius of 6 feet, and continue to have fall protection while doing so.
The Soft Touch System is another feature option that will help to reduce any damage to the machinery or risk of any accidental contact during aircraft maintenance. This optional package offers a suspended padded rail that surrounds the platform basket. There are proximity sensors which de-activate platform movement functions and if the basket comes too near the aircraft surface, the operator is warned.
Benefits
The articulating jib would enable the operator better access and positioning to all external surfaces on any kind of aircraft. This jib can be used in both controlled and uncontrolled places due to steady winds, 90 mph gusts and jet blast standards of 80 mph. An on-board air compressor option allows for pneumatic-powered hand tools to be utilized. The Fall Arrest adds safety when performing maintenance outside of the platform.
In order to make the driver as safe as possible, while also improving the machines overall effectiveness, JLG has made many great feature options.
