Haulotte’s 55 XA articulating boom lift is an effective way to work at height for anyone who needs a quiet, easy-to-use lift that can set up in 30 seconds and deliver 500 lbs. of platform capacity at up to 55 ft. of platform height or 33 ft. of horizontal reach.
Haulotte presented the machine at the Lift and Access Showcase in Las Vegas, Nev., in October 2014, with Haulotte’s general manager for Canada, Tom Bell, handling the demonstration and commentary.

I had the towable Haulotte Bi-Jax 55' and i was really pleased by it's horizontal reach. :)

at 5:52 it shows the outriggers off the ground just before he is going to lift, then switches to outriggers on ground

I take down trees with this almost daily it is awesome. Batteries die quickly even with engine running when driving though. And leveling is very difficult on any hill. Otherwise great machine

Yes great machine for tree work. A lot easier than climbing- which I don’t do at all! This machine makes me a lot of money doing all kinds of work

I was a boom lift mechanic at a rental company These machines are great when they work properly but have more electrical problems than Genie or JLG . And the phone tech ant the greatest Spend the extra cash and Buy JLG equipment .

JLG doesn’t let ya move the upper and lower independently of each other. Not a big deal for light bulb changers but huge deal for us tree guys

Impressive machine, but lease put your harness on properly next time. Note how loose the straps are around the legs. Serious injury can result if its not properly fitted.
