Niftylift HeightRider 12 Narrow (HR12N): Agile Access for Confined Spaces

The Niftylift HeightRider 12 Narrow (HR12N) is a groundbreaking self-propelled work platform designed to provide maximum working envelope from the smallest possible chassis. Its innovative design delivers impressive reach and excellent manoeuvrability, making it the ideal choice for maintenance, installation, and construction tasks in tight indoor environments, or for reaching difficult areas on outdoor sites with limited access.

Features

• 12.2m (40 ft 0 in) Working Height: Offers substantial vertical reach, allowing operators to safely access elevated work areas for a wide range of tasks.
• 10.2m (33 ft 6 in) Platform Height: The height of the platform floor when fully extended.
• 6.1m (20 ft 0 in) Horizontal Outreach: Provides a significant horizontal reach, enabling operators to access work areas over obstacles or at a distance from the machine, enhancing versatility.
• Compact 1.5m (4 ft 11 in) Narrow Chassis: This is the HR12N's defining feature. Its exceptionally narrow base allows it to easily pass through standard doorways and congested access points, making it perfect for indoor applications, corridors, and tight construction sites.
• Highly Manoeuvrable:
  • Zero Tail Swing: The boom does not extend beyond the chassis when slewing, further enhancing its ability to operate in confined spaces without risk of collision.
  • Tight Turning Radius: Designed for excellent manoeuvrability in restricted areas.
  • 2WD / 4WD Options: Often available in 2-wheel drive for flat, firm surfaces, or 4-wheel drive (for Bi-Energy models) for enhanced traction on rougher outdoor terrain.
• 175 kg (385 lbs) Platform Capacity: Safely accommodates one operator with tools and materials, or sometimes two lighter operators (check specific load charts).
• Bi-Energy Power (Battery & Diesel Engine): A highly versatile power option:
  • Battery Power: Ideal for quiet, emission-free indoor operation, reducing noise and pollution. Perfect for sensitive environments like hospitals, schools, or offices.
  • Diesel Engine: Provides robust power for outdoor use, extending working range and allowing for charging of the batteries in remote locations. This offers ultimate flexibility.
• Tough, Non-Marking Tyres: Equipped with durable, non-marking tyres that prevent scuff marks on sensitive indoor flooring, yet are robust enough for outdoor use.
• Fully Proportional Controls: Offers smooth, precise, and controlled movements of all boom and platform functions, enhancing operator confidence and efficiency.
• Versatile Boom Articulation: Features an articulated boom (knuckle boom) with a telescopic upper boom, allowing for "up-and-over" capabilities to reach difficult areas by navigating over obstacles. The HR12N often includes a fly-boom for even greater flexibility.
• Niftylift's SiOPS® Safety System (Standard on newer models): This award-winning safety system provides enhanced operator protection by preventing sustained involuntary operation of the controls if the operator is pushed or falls onto the control panel, significantly reducing the risk of crushing injuries.
• ToughCage with Impact-Resistant Composite Base: The platform basket is built from tough, durable material, designed to absorb impacts and protect the operator.
• Integrated Telematics (Niftylink): Newer models may come with Niftylink telematics, providing real-time data on machine location, usage, and service alerts, optimizing fleet management and uptime.
• Automatic Safety Features: Includes overload protection, tilt alarms, and emergency stop buttons on both platform and ground controls for maximum safety.

Applications

The Niftylift HR12N is an incredibly versatile machine suitable for a wide range of applications:

• Indoor Maintenance: Ideal for facilities management in shopping centres, hospitals, schools, airports, offices, and factories where quiet, emission-free operation and narrow access are crucial.
• Construction & Fit-Out: Perfect for internal fit-out work, electrical installations, HVAC work, plasterboarding, and painting in new builds or renovations with tight access.
• Retail & Warehousing: Stock picking, shelf maintenance, and access in narrow aisles.
• Facilities Management: General maintenance, lighting replacement, and cleaning in large buildings.
• Outdoor Work (with Bi-Energy/Diesel): Reaching difficult-to-access areas on construction sites, landscaping projects, or general outdoor maintenance where the compact size is beneficial.
