Tight access overcome
February 1st 2009 A-Plant Powered Access has supplied
narrow electric scissor lifts to Media
Structures for television coverage of a
Blue Square Premier League football
match between Mansfield Town and
Oxford United. The units helped
overcome tight access and working
space at the Mansfield Town ground,
which prevented the use of the
specialist scaffolding normally used to
build camera towers.
The 1.2 m wide passage alongside
the pitch was no problem for the five
2646ES scissor lifts. When raised, the
steadiness and non-skid nature of the
large 1.12 m x 2.5m aluminium decks
on the lifts is claimed to make them
ideal for cameramen to carry out
their work on. An efficient electric
drive also means the scissor lifts
provide longer work cycles than other
electric scissor lifts on the market. More articles from A Plant: |
