The SJ6832 RTE was unveiled at the ConExpo 2014 trade fair in Las Vegas this week. Skyjack claims that it is the only machine in its category with four-wheel drive and 45% gradeability as standard.

Lifting height is 32 feet (9.7 metres).

To simplify operator and service training, the SJ6832 RTE was built on the same chassis as the existing diesel and dual fuel 68RT units.Maintenance costs and time are reduced as there are no air or fuel filters to clean or change, no engine oil, coolants or belts. Almost all non power-plant related parts are common with the internal combustion 6832RTs.

 “The SJ6832 RTE offers the best of both worlds with a zero emission machine that doesn’t require any special training to run because it’s built on the standard lift frame that many of our clients are accustomed to using,” said Skyjack president Brad Boehler. “You can take this machine from rough terrain to indoor projects seamlessly without any extra noise, emissions or costs.”
