Boom Lift

The Model 740AJ boom lift from JLG Industries, Inc. is specifically created for performing aircraft maintenance. It features an integral personal fall arrest system that allows maintenance personnel to work outside the platform. The optional air compressor and AC generator allow for convenient operation of pneumatic or electric tools while working inside or outside the platform. Plus, it is designed to withstand sustained jet blasts up to 80 mph with gusts to 90 mph. The personal fall arrest system incorporates a stainless steel wire rope circumscribing three sides of the platform's top railing and secured at six points along the railing. A useful option that adds to Model 740AJ's utility is an on-board air compressor fitted under the fiberglass hood of the base with air lines running inside the boom to the platform. The compressor allows operation of pneumatic powered hand tools such as rivet guns and wrenches without using a separate compressor. The compressor is capable of 4 CFM at 100 psi. There is also a 110-V outlet in the platform for electric powered tools. Both the compressor and electric outlet are powered by an on-board 2500-W generator, or they can be connected to a standard 15-amp, AC outlet when the machine's engine is shut off. The platform rails are also wrapped in padding to provide additional protection. Halogen work lights mounted on the platform, a corner tool tray and cold weather start kits are among the other options. With the unique, new fall arrest system, 80 MPH jet blast rating, six foot articulating jib boom having 130 degree range of articulation and an up and over height of 25 ft., 1-in., the JLG Model 740AJ boom lift is an aerial work platform that makes the job of aircraft inspection and maintenance more efficient and effective.
