These machines offer dual rated capacities of 1000 pounds and 500 pounds too. Combined with a 60 foot platform height, these models would provide you with the power and the reach capacity you require no matter what job needs to be completed.

The platform controls are better and have been redesigned in order to offer more controlled operation and be smoother for job site productivity.
Raising Safety Standards for Aircraft Maintenance
The Model 740AJ is the right equipment for working on any aircraft size. This model offers 74 feet or 22.6 m of height and more than fifteen m or fifty one feet of outreach. It has numerous safety features that you need when performing maintenance. The Fall Arrest platform could be included in order to enable you to exit the platform and move a complete 270 degrees around the platform in a radius of 6 feet, and continue to have fall protection whilst doing so.
The Soft Touch System is another feature option that would help to lessen any damage to the machine or risk of any accidental contact during aircraft maintenance. This package option offers a suspended padded rail which surrounds the platform basket. There are proximity sensors that de-activate platform movement functions and the operator is alerted if the basket comes too near the aircraft surface.
Benefits
The articulating jib allows for more access and precise positioning to all external surfaces on any kind of aircraft. This type of jib could be utilized in both controlled and uncontrolled places thanks to steady winds, 90 mph gusts and jet blast standards of 80 mph. An on-board air compressor option enables for pneumatic-powered hand tools to be used. When performing maintenance outside of the platform, the Fall Arrest adds safety.
In order to make the operator as safe as possible, while also increasing the machinery overall efficiency, JLG has designed many great optional features.
