Facelift Access Hire take delivery of their 20th, 17m truck mounted platform from Ascendant Access

Facelift Access Hire has confirmed delivery of its 20th, 17m truck mounted platform from British Manufacturer Ascendant Access.

The A17m, mounted on a 3.5 tonne chassis has been specifically designed for the UK market and can be driven on a normal car license.

Unique features include permanent one sided jacking allowing the machine to achieve full unrestricted outreach of 12.2m with a cage capacity of 230KG, whilst still maintaining a narrow working width of only 3.2m. The vehicle has built in storage lockers with a carrying capacity of 150KG unique to this type of machine, allowing the user to carry tools and equipment to the job with no need for a second vehicle.

The machines greatest feature is its simplicity. The design brief was to create something simple, easy to operate and maintain. The result is a machine with full hydraulic controls and no need for outreach limiters or complicated electronics.
