New vertical mast model from Haulotte
French access manufacturer 712 Haulotte is adding the Star6 to its vertical mast access range. The machine joins the larger Sta8 and Star10 launched last year, with new AC motors delivering smoother performance. A larger platform is included and Haulotte has added forklift slots in the side of the machine for easier movement. With three-stage hydraulic lift rams there is no requirement for chains or cables, so no regular maintenance of the lift mechanism.

The Star lifts are among the first machines to feature Haulotte’s ACTIV diagnostic screen, built into the base structure of the platform. ACTIV is to be fitted as standard across the platform range, with ACTIV 2 on larger models.
