The Hinowa range at glance
From the ultra-compact Telecrawler 13 to the record-breaking Lightlift 40.18, we provide the UK’s most advanced fleet of tracked aerial platforms.
Up to 14 metres
Hinowa’s entry-level tracked cherry pickers are designed for those who need high-performance access in the tightest spaces.
Small enough to fit through a standard garden gate, these machines are the ultimate tool for residential and light commercial work.
Standard Doorway Access: Chassis widths under 800mm for effortless interior navigation.
Lightweight Design: Ideal for transport on a standard plant trailer.
Bi-Energy Power: Seamlessly switch between engine power and emission-free electric operation.

Maximum Productivity: Exceptional “up and over” clearance for reaching over roofs and obstacles.

Up to 40 metres
When the job demands extreme height but site access remains restricted, the Hinowa 33.17 and 40.18 are second to none. These machines offer the reach of a large truck-mounted lift but with the light footprint of a tracked crawler.
Industry-Leading Reach: The Lightlift 40.18 provides a staggering 40.2m working height.
Heavy-Duty Baskets: Higher safe working loads (up to 300kg) to accommodate multiple operators and heavy equipment.
Low Ground Pressure: Despite their size, these machines protect delicate stone and high-value flooring.
Cost Efficiency: Avoid the high cost and road-closure permits associated with large truck-mounted platforms.

Daily Pre-Use Checks: Operators should perform a visual inspection of the tracks, hydraulic hoses, and emergency stop functions before every shift.
Regular Cleaning: Keeping the “spider” legs and telescopic boom free of debris—especially after tree work or construction—prevents premature wear on seals and sensors.
