What are its features?

• The key feature of this new 40 m aerial platform is an elevated maximum height/outreach versus machine size/weight ratio. It is the only tracked articulated aerial platform in the 40 m category with this characteristic.
• Thanks to the exceptional up & over of 21 meters and the articulated column structure, the new Lightlift 40.18 will make it possible to work flush to the wall and perform even the most delicate manoeuvres.
• A spacious and comfortable basket with maximum capacity of 300 kg, which allows to accommodate 3 people plus 60 kg of accessories. This basket measures 200 x 70 cm to allow large and comfortable room for operators and tools.
• Regardless of the remarkable working height, Hinowa has managed to maintain the typical compactness of all its models of tracked aerial platforms. In fact, the stabilization area is 537 x 504 cm in full area and 667 x 364 cm in reduced area.
• When it comes to transportation, the machine height is under 2 meters to allow easy access to building interiors and passage through any industrial and home doors, while the undercarriage width is only 120 cm when closed and 170 cm open.
• The machine, when stowed and with basket removed, measures 6.82 metres in length, and fully loaded weights between 8700 and 9000 kg, depending on the engine version. 
• The machine can be lifted to clear a height of 1.12 metres under the tracks in order to level on steep slopes and to be loaded on special low flatbeds.
• Another key feature of this new model is being equipped with the so-called “smart functions” which are also found on the Lightlift 33.17:
• The jib arm can be operated automatically to remain within the working area; the Tower Boom (TB) can perform two sequential movements with a single joystick: lifting/lowering and extension opening/closing. Furthermore, thanks to the "Go-Home function", the machine can be automatically brought from working to transport position and its arms can be opened and closed simultaneously.
• These functions lead to significant time savings and increase in productivity.
• All the extensions are ropes driven, not chains, and they are completely contained within the booms for better protection and reduced maintenance. The power tracks are located inside the booms as well.
• Full-colour remote control display and SmartVision LCD panel for ground controls, to view machine information, operating instructions and the owner's manual.
• Optional remote radio control to guarantee maximum ease of loading/unloading, drive and automatic stabilization and destabilization. Compact, functional and extremely easy to handle, it can be placed inside the box of the ground controls. 
• The aerial platform Lightlift 40.18 Performance IIIS is available in the following versions:

1. Diesel 3-cylinder engine Kubota D902, with 16,1 kW (380 V / 50 Hz) electric motor.
2. Lithium-ion version with 19,2 kWh battery pack which guarantees zero emissions, no noise and low environmental impact. Thus, this platform can be used indoor or in places with poor air exchange, guaranteeing excellent working range and speed of movement.

The Lithium-Ion batteries system, an ecological solution that ensures significant operating range, absence of noise, vibrations and exhaust emissions, without the need of electrical connections and special maintenance. Or you can select the combustion engine that allows the operation in the same way as a standard diesel machine.
