Transmission & Wind Access

Hinkel Equipment Rentals offers Bronto Skylifts with working heights up to 200 ft. These machines offer the safest method of transmission line and wind farm maintenance available today. They also adhere to OSHA regulation 1962.550(g)(2):

"General requirements. The use of a crane or derrick to hoist employees on a personnel platform is prohibited, except when the …use… of conventional means of reaching the worksite, such as a[n] …aerial lift … would be more hazardous or is not possible because of structural design or worksite conditions."

The use of a Bronto, with its redundant safety features, will ensure that all workers are within a safe operating setup at all times, which translates to better safety performance for your company.
