What reach and outreach do I require and what does reach and outreach mean?
The reach of a cherry picker is the height it’s required to work from and the outreach is the horizontal distance between the middle of the cherry picker and the required target. If you underestimate the measurements, you may not be able to complete the job and on the other hand if you overestimate, you may end up paying too much for a machine you do not need. Please use our table above to identify the cherry picker for you. In general terms the more outreach you need, the bigger the machine required. If you require any assistance please do not hesitate to contact us on 01243 530076, we will be more than happy to help.
What do I need to consider when choosing a cherry picker to use outdoors?
The most important thing to consider is where you will be placing the cherry picker. For example, you need to consider ground quality and distance from target, are you on hard standing? Are you on soft grass? Can you position the cherry picker completely underneath the target or do you have to position the cherry picker further away. You have also got to consider how you will get the cherry picker to that position, is there restricted access such as narrow gates, height restriction any underpasses? If you have any concerns, feel free to call us on 01243 530076 for any help or advice.
What do I need to consider for using a cherry picker inside?
What do I require when hiring a cherry picker from you?
If you are using a truck mounted cherry picker you require a full valid driving license for vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes. It is preferable for you to have IPAF qualifications however this is not mandatory but highly recommended. If you are self-hiring, you will require hired-in plant insurance which is part of your public liability insurance. If you do not have this insurance then we can provide an operator for you.
Can you provide an operator with the cherry picker?
We highly recommend you use our skilled IPAF qualified operators, as they can assist you with the works required as well as operating the cherry picker efficiently. This should reduce the amount of time you will need the cherry picker for to complete the works, therefore saving you money. With operated hire you do not require any insurance as it will be covered under our policy. All our operators can assist in a variety of tasks including cleaning, roofing, gutter repairs, painting and numerous other tasks.
