It was a 2 man, fully articulated thing, self propelled with something like a 30 foot up, 14 foot out boom. It really made taking that tree out in small chunks easy. I had to make it small enough to go in a dumpster. After Irma I took down the other half the good old Paul Bunyon way. I notched it and dropped the whole thing up on FPL in one piece, then cut it into chunks I could drag with the truck and hauled it out front. My brother-in-law has convinced me to rent a scissor type lift rather than the Genie boom type man lift to reach 26-28 feet up. He claims the basket is more stable ...less shaking. How close can you get the lift to the wall? Pretty much right up next to it. The arm has 3 joints in it so you can go straight up and then go out. https://sws.sunbeltrentals.com/image...0318&width=180 Referring to the scissor lift . A Scissor lift will go right next to a wall if you have a suitable surface to drive it on. They use them for windows, paint and stucco. They will be operated from the basket so they can drive along working as they go. My wife rented that lift we had for painting light poles at the club that they could not drive right up to because they were in big flower beds. I used it when they were done. |
