Standard features

Air/Water Line to Basket

A standard 3000 PSI air/water line runs from ground to basket through the boom to offer more flexibility and less weight in the basket.

Travel Alarm

This audible alarm will go as long as the unit moves, in combustion or electric mode. With safety standards present and future, this is a great safety asset.

Active Envelope Stability Management System

The active stability management system is composed of redundant switches on each outrigger and is designed to prevent dangerous movements.

Black Deep Thread Extra-Long Rubber Tracks

Providing a major increase in both stability and weight distribution, extra-long black rubber tracks also provide an enhanced climbing capability to your unit. Made of durable rubber with a steel belt reinforcement, they are built to last.

External Power Track

All hoses and harnesses are routed outside of the boom, and protected by heavy duty unbreakable thermoplastic power track allowing smooth boom telescopic extension. Also, all hoses and harnesses can be inspected and replaced quickly right on the job site.

Tie-Down Anchor Points

Strategically positioned tie-down anchor points in the back and front of your unit will ease your transport on a trailer.

340 Degree Turret Rotation

Offering reach almost all around the clock, the 340 degree turret rotation allows working at multiple working areas from the same stabilization spot.

Live Hydraulic Proportional Controls

The LIVE hydraulic levers allow smooth movements both from ground controls and basket controls.

Emergency Descent System

In case of minor problems or accidents, emergency descent system will get the operator down by doing boom operations, outrigger setup and drive the unit if need be. Units are always equipped with manual pumps to move the oil, but an electric pump is available as an option.

Hour Meter

To insure increased accuracy of your maintenance schedule, the hour meter will be of great help to follow up on inspections and maintenance.

AC Power to Basket

All units are equipped standard with GFI double outlet, with cable running through the boom. Perfect to use electric tools up in the basket.

Top Mount Lifting Points

On top of being safe due to their location on the machine and the fact that no spreader bars are required, top mount lifting points allow you to insert your unit in even harder-to-reach areas and places with a crane.

Safety

Wired Remote Control Standard

The remote provides perspective. Driving and operating outriggers is possible from the quick disconnect remote control allowing better view of obstacles and terrain slopes & layouts. It comes standard with a neck strap for more stability, movement precision and safety.

Harness Anchor Points

All units are equipped with 2 standard harness anchor points located inside the aluminum basket. An additional anchor point is located on the fiberglass basket’s floor if the unit is equipped with this basket.

Wind-Safe Up to 28 Mph (45 km/h)

The wind factor needs to be considered at all time when working in heights. Easy Lift units are fully safe under 28 Mph.

Active Envelope Stability Management System

The active stability management system is composed of redundant switches on each outrigger and is designed to prevent dangerous movements.

Emergency Descent System

In case of minor problems or accidents, emergency descent system will get the operator down by doing boom operations, outrigger setup and drive the unit if need be. Units are always equipped with manual pumps to move the oil, but an electric pump is available as an option.

High Tensile Steel Booms

All Easy Lift units' booms and structural components are made from Swedish high tensile flexible Domex SSAB steel. It allows the production of smaller, yet more resistant components.

Smooth and Automatic Basket Leveling

The hydraulic compensation system will keep the basket leveled to the ground all the time without any interaction required from the operator. For specific needs and tricky situations, there is a manual override.

Basket anti-overload system

The anti-overload system is designed to prevent operation of a unit with an overloaded basket. An alarm and a red light, both at base and basket, will warn you. This system can be verified by operator during daily inspection.

Productivity

5 feet Articulated Jib 90 Degrees

The last section before the basket is called the jib. It is live even at full basket weight capacity. It offers maximum flexibility for a perfect final positioning at the working area. It also can be elevated while driving to allow better clearance of obstacles.

Active Envelope Stability Management System

The active stability management system is composed of redundant switches on each outrigger and is designed to prevent dangerous movements.

Air/Water Line to Basket

A standard 3000 PSI air/water line runs from ground to basket through the boom to offer more flexibility and less weight in the basket.

360 Degree Turret Rotation

Offering 360 degrees of reach, 180 degrees each way all around the clock not continuous, this feature allows working at multiple areas from the same stabilization spot. It is a distinctive feature of all compact lifts.

Hydraulic Basket Rotation

A key element to refined working position, real hydraulic rotation offers better insertion and final adaptability, and allows optimal working conditions.

High Speed / Independently Operable Boom

All units are equipped with independently operable high speed booms, allowing far better insertion strategies and a lot more flexibility.

Greasable Fittings in All Pivot Points

All pivot points are easily accessible to prevent jerking, squeaking and insure a smooth pivot articulation.

Variable Outrigger Patterns

There are multiple outrigger positions since every outrigger is mounted on a swing-out pivot, allowing standard position (wide), narrow position or, for crowded floors, it is possible to mix positions for more flexibility.

Reliability

External Adjustable Wear Pads

Wear pads can be adjusted easily, no shimming required. Most can be replaced without the need to de-booming for extra convenience.

Greasable Fittings in All Pivot Points

All pivot points are easily accessible to prevent jerking, squeaking and insure a smooth pivot articulation.

Standard common 12V components

Live Hydraulic Proportional Controls

The LIVE hydraulic levers allow smooth movements both from ground controls and basket controls.

External Power Track

All hoses and harnesses are routed outside of the boom, and protected by heavy duty unbreakable thermoplastic power track allowing smooth boom telescopic extension. Also, all hoses and harnesses can be inspected and replaced quickly right on the job site.

High Tensile Steel Booms

All Easy Lift units' booms and structural components are made from Swedish high tensile flexible Domex SSAB steel. It allows the production of smaller, yet more resistant components.

Options

Winter Start Package

Only one 110V AC standard plug is necessary to warm your hydraulic oil tank, maintain your battery fully charged and insure that your unit will start in cold weather. A must-have option for those whose next project is a garage for equipment.

Outrigger Pads for Stabilizers

The outriggers needs some travel when they lift tracks off the ground. There are a few options available: 16 X 24 or 20 X 40 with or without sliding rails. Custom-made Teflon pads are designed to insure best load of each leg as well as best performance overall for operator.

Automatic Self Leveling for Outriggers

With the activation of a single button, your unit will level in a perfect way, regardless of the surface. A nice-to-have option to consider if moving your unit often is required.

One-Man Fiberglass Basket

Very popular in the Utility and Tree Care markets, the one-man fiberglass basket will bring even more efficiency to those who often work in very tight places and hard-to-reach areas. There is no need to remove it at insertion and its dimensions makes it easy to insert within structures, branches, etc.

Two-Man Fiberglass Basket

This 2-Man fiberglass basket provides more flexibility regarding what tools can be carried up for work. The fiberglass makes insertion in branches as smooth as it can be.

Radio Remote Control Option

The wireless remote control will take charge of all movements for drive, outrigger and boom operations from the ground. It also provides the best wireless perspective and flexibility when driving in tight places. An on-board battery charger and an extra battery are included.

Custom Color Powder Coat Painting

Multi-layer powder coat baked paint is applied before parts assembly, offering the same protection everywhere on parts. This option will allow color matching through the RAL International Color Code to paint your unit with your own company colors.

Casters on Basket

Although it is far more convenient to be two men to move a basket, casters will make your task possible even if you're alone. No need to carry a dolly, just pure efficiency.

Outriggers “Sinking” Alarm

The stability system on all Easy Lift units cannot prevent ground from collapsing under them. But as long as the outrigger's pressure is supported from ground, the unit will be safe and sometimes even able to work if slightly inclined. This system will warn the operator that the whole unit is inclined and/or sinking, even if it’s not possible to tell from the basket.

Strobe Light

With increasing safety regulations, this small option will soon make a huge difference and determine whether you will be able to go or not on a jobsite. Well worth it!

Non-Marking Soft Rubber Tracks

Never leave black marks anymore on any surface: concrete, brick patio, stone, marble, wood, epoxy coating, and so on. You will drive on non-marking tracks with peace of mind and won’t need to bite on your profit to clean up afterwards.

Hostile Kit

Despite all your planning and care, accidents unfortunately happen. The 1/4-inch heavy duty thick aluminum plates composing the hostile kit will greatly minimize the impacts of such accidents on vital components of the unit: ground lever controls, outrigger switches and cylinders.

Emergency Descent 12V Electric Pump

Bringing a harmed operator or broken basket control to the ground is always possible from the base using the emergency descent procedure. The electric 12V emergency pump just makes it easier since no manual pumping is required to move the oil and build pressure.

Working Lamp on Basket

For a better view of the working area, under all circumstances, this powerful lamp will bring the sun everywhere.

Without a doubt purchasing a lift from UPequip was one of the most lucrative purchases in my career . As a 20 year tree climbing veteran it was a nice break up in the daily grind to not have to climb everything all the time. I love climbing but you simply cannot beat the production due to access and capabilities of the compact telescopic boom lift. It goes places and does things that have diversified my business and definitely increased income. The support from UPequip is second to none. They walk you through any issues with a phone call mostly, if on a rare occasion they occur. I love my easy lift and will purchase another as soon as possible.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here, but I felt compelled to share my experience with the folks @ UP Equipment. While I haven’t bought a significant number of brand new pieces of machinery, I have had years of experience trying to work with manufacturers to dial out the bugs and difficulties with heavy machinery. Point being, I have something to compare with. When you’re truly ready to pull the trigger on a compact lift, I feel you owe it to yourself to give UP Equip a call. Their communication and support has been top notch from the very beginning. I first spoke with Alain Paré. If I understand his position, he primarily handles sales, although he has gone out of his way to help me whenever I’ve reached out. I’m getting used to bypassing him and contacting other point people within the company, and they have all presented the same positive and helpful attitude. These people would include Martin and Remi. Remi handles tech support, and his guidance has been priceless. He is timely and methodical, making diagnosis and repair in the field feel like a breeze. All that said, I don’t want to convey the notion that I’ve spent hours broken down, wondering how I’ll finish the day. The problems I’ve had with the machine have all been minor and easy to fix. It can feel daunting when something isn’t working and you have no idea how to even diagnose. With the support of UP Equip, I’ve handled every single issue within an hour of reaching out to being back in action. I’ve assembled a small tool kit, consisting of 5mm & 6mm Allen Wrenches, a 19mm GearWrench, a Grease Fitting, a Test Light, and small Micrometer. My lunch bag is bigger than this tool kit. Most importantly, I can work with confidence that the dealer support is behind me 100%, and their motto, “Simple Inside”, holds true to the last letter. If you saw the 87-48AJ on display @ Expo last year, you saw my personal machine just days prior to delivery. This machine has made my work with stone dead and crumbling trees in tight locations possible. UP Equip will be at Expo this year as well, and I truly feel they deserve a visit if you’re in the market for a machine. Thanks for everything, @UP Equip !!!

As a customer from the US, I was a little apprehensive about buying equipment from a vendor in Canada for when repairs/maintenance issues arose, but UPequip has been very helpful and prompt in answering any questions we've had regarding our lift. Their customer service is excellent and they have always made getting my equipment back up and running a priority.

UpEquip has been valuable asset to our business. As an equipment rental company, our 70-36A spider lift was a phenomenal addition to our fleet. Alain was incredibly helpful during the buying process, and we know their service department is a quick phone call away should we need any assistance. Highly recommend!

I purchase a 61-36A machine a couple of years ago. Overall, I’m very happy with the machine and extremely happy with the service I’ve received from UPEquip. The machine suits my needs very well and have had few problems. I have had a few issues with electrical problems.. The AC/DC converter went bad twice but UPEquip was always a phone call away to get me out of a jam. I would highly recommend buying one of there machines and the follow up service is PRICELESS

I purchased an EasyLift 87-48AJ from Up Equipment in March of 2020. It has done an excellent job for us, more than doubling production on any job requiring a climber. In fact, I no longer employ a climber. If I cannot get the EasyLift close enough to a tree on a prospective job, I simply don't bid on that job. During the past 8 months, I have only turned down one job!! The lift will go easily into back yards completely inaccessible to a bucket truck, and yet is very sturdy when set up and operating. My lift operator , who has operated several brands of lifts, comments often on how smooth and sturdy it feels. It is simple to maintain, and Up Equipment has been very helpful in diagnosing and correcting the few minor problems that we have experienced with it. I expect many more years of productive service from it.

We purchased a unit, very reasonable price, units are simple strong and dependable. We have work to do ! and didn't need a unit with all the gizmo's. Very smooth purchase and delivery process. Down to earth folks at UPequip they do everything they say they will do for you. Speaking with UPequip you can tell how dedicated the company is about their spider lift equipment. UPequip has always professionally responded. Highly recommended !!

To the tree guys out there I recommend the more robust 87-48 aj than the smaller units. Beats competitors units head to head on specs. Always someone available if you have questions. Extend the life of your old climber or keep employees out of danger in structurally compromised trees. Can access almost anything. These units are evolving and will become a game changer for the arborist community. Spend the money and get ahead of your competitors.

We purchased the 70-36AJ this past winter. We looked around and end up pulling the trigger on the Easy Lift for various reasons. We do lots of work in natural tree stands, along ravine pathways and areas where our Bucket trucks can not access and on trees where our Arborists should not be climbing. The access this allows and the versatility has given us a edge on competitors in our market for these kinds of jobs. We have been very pleased so far with the lift and have had no issues. Drives nice, fits into backyards easily etc. Great purchase.

I Received my 70-36AJ in September of 2016 to use in those hard to reach places and since I had this truck built it has become my main every day lift because it's so easy to move and setup anywhere. The fact that it is completely controlled by switches and relays "absolutely no computer inside" I have been able to diagnose and repair anything myself, but help is just a phone call away when you need it. I included a good photo of a setup we couldn't do with our truck. I have dozens of photo's of strange places this machine has been setup in. We love ours. We do a lot less creative and complicated roping now that we can always reach our work.

Hey guys. I just wanted to say thank you for all your fast and professional help. Additionally, I wanted to tell you how pleased we are with our second 87' lift. I was in the lift for 9 hours yesterday, on a large job removing hazardous ash trees, while working until dark, and the temperature was a high of 10 F. The new lift is such a difference maker. Thanks again, and hope you're all doing well! (Purchased 2 units)

5+ Stars for UP Equip. We purchased a 101-48AJ in the summer of 2019 and couldn't be happier. The EZ Lift is just that, EZ to use and operate and fix as well. We haven't had any big problems at all with it. When we do have questions UP Equip is quick to respond and help. They are available during off hours as well. Parts arrive promptly and are not outrageously expensive. We have used other brands of lifts that are problematic and break down frequently causing down time. That is NOT the case with the EZ Lift. The customer service and communication are excellent. Our tree crews love working with the 101-48AJ so much that we purchased another EZ lift in the fall of 2020. We are getting the 87-48AJ. Our operators find the EZ Lifts simple to operate. They are intuitive and not complicated like other lifts we have owned. EZ Lift is the ONLY lift we will use moving forward. Look no further, the EZ Lifts are the BEST around. Don't delay, if you need a lift order yours today it will make a huge difference with your productivity! Owner of 2 units
