AFI has bought another 43
powered access machines as
part of a planned £5 million
investment in its rental fleet.

Director Nick Higgins
said: “This latest investment
is to ensure our fleet
remains young and that
customers have the most
reliable and efficient
machines to allow them to
operate on site without issues.”
With a current average machine
age of about five years, the AFI fleet
of more than 4500 machines is
already younger than many of its
national competitors.
The first 43 machines to arrive
comprise 10 Genie Z30/20N electric
articulating boom lifts, 15 Haulotte
Star 10 electric mast lifts and
18 Haulotte Compact 14
electric scissor lifts.

The Genie Z30/20N has a
working height of 11.14m, a
width of 1.19m and an up
and over clearance of 3.86m.

The Haulotte Star 10
weighs 2575kg, has a working
height of 10m and a width of
0.99m, so fits into lifts.

The Haulotte Compact 14 has a
working height of 14m and width of
1.20m, enabling it to go along
racking aisles.
