Kardie Equipment, Bee Cave, Texas, is adding three Bronto Skylift models to its current rental fleet of 20. Two Bronto Skylift 230 XRs and a Bronto Skylift 230 XDT will be added to Kardie’s fleet this year and next.

All three units have a maximum working height of 230 feet; one 230 XR unit will feature a continuous 220-degree rotation. The units give users access to higher elevation jobs such as wind turbine construction and maintenance. Other applications include refineries and utility transmission and distribution.

Kardie says it has the largest collection of 150-feet-plus aerial work platforms in North America. The company, a TGM Wind Services company, provides equipment that reaches up to 295 feet with a horizontal reach of out to 100 feet. TGM Wind provides wind turbine cleaning services.
