BOOM LIFT ACCESSORIES
Integrated Saw and Drill Package
The SkySaw package, part of JLG's Workstation in the Sky accessory product line, integrates a concrete wall saw system into an aerial work platform. It mounts on a JLG 60-ft boom lift and uses an on-board hydraulic manipulator that holds the saw and guides it along a bolt-on track for precision cuts. The SkySaw can be combined with the SkyCleaner, an on-board pressure washer with a water line running through the power track. It includes two 150-gal chassis-mounted water tanks and a cleaning wand with an adjustable nozzle that can operate up to 3,500 psi. JLG INDUSTRIES INC.; 240/420-8721;. www.jlg.com
