The Haulotte Star 6 Crawler is an electric rough-terrain vertical mast that can operate in both indoor and outdoor environments, up to 6 m working height, for applications such as maintenance, finishing, and landscaping.

The Star 6 Crawler can get over unstable, wet or uneven grounds and cross slopes up to 25%. The crawling system enables the mast to go over the roughest terrains and significantly reduces the ground pressure, which is essential for driving on sensitive floors. A mobile axis on the intermediate oscillating rollers provides an optimal ground adherence. The machine can elevate inside and outside on any kind of flat surface: it is particularly suited for working on fragile floors due to its low ground pressure. The mast architecture also ensures optimal stability: the 200 kg load capacity enables 2 operators to work indoors with confidence. For a better comfort and efficiency, a 40 cm basket extension offers an extra outreach.

AC motors provide high torque and manoeuvrability: a narrow turning radius enables operators to manoeuvre the vertical mast in the most confined spaces.

A non-skid step integrated into the machine’s design and a swing door entry gate allow a safe entry. The vibration-proof rubber buffers under the platform ensure a smooth lowering. The ergonomic control box gathers all commands together so that they are all accessible with one hand. For maximum flexibility, the Star 6 Crawler can be lifted lengthwise with dedicated forklift pockets.

All components are protected against water projections and are easily accessible in order to facilitate the maintenance. The Star 6 Crawler is equipped with AGM batteries and asynchronous motors which require no regular maintenance. The mast’s simple architecture with no chain and no cable minimizes risks of breakage. The tracks and charger plug are also protected from shocks as they are located inside the chassis frame. In order to save time in troubleshooting, operators can access the Activ’Screen display and functions with the Haulotte Diag app.

The Star 6 Crawler is available for pre-order now, and will be available for sale in the second half of 2020 in Europe and APAC countries (except Russia).
