How does a telescopic boom lift work?

Telescopic booms use a telescoping mechanism to extend and retract the boom from the boom hoist. The system uses a hydraulically powered drum as its hoisting mechanism.

How do I choose the right telescopic boom lift height?

Choosing the right telescopic boom lift height depends on several factors. Identifying your working height is the first step; this should include the highest point that your crew or equipment must reach. If there are overhead obstacles at your jobsite, such as ceilings, beams or power lines, you may need a lift that can reach higher than the obstacle while providing safe clearance. You will also want to factor in outreach and account for safety margins. Lastly, consider the lift's load capacity. Higher lifts often have lower load capabilities. Reach out to one of our used equipment sales experts for help deciding which telescopic boom lift is right for the job.

Do I need a license to operate a telescopic boom lift?

Yes. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires workers to complete an aerial lift training and certification process prior to operating aerial work platforms. United Rentals also offers boom lift certification training for operators to learn safety best practices.
