Ford E-Transit with Lift UP RH38DGA

Insulated Aerial Ladder with Ground Access

The RH38DGA mounted on a Ford E-Transit offers an efficient telescopic insulated ladder. Its gooseneck design and three-section ladder can be extended to 38 feet with ground access and the basket is easily accessed from the ground or bumper via a side door.

Works best with Ford E-Transit and Transit models for reliable gas and fully electric options.
Ladder is powered by an independent battery, so it won’t drain vehicle batteries.
Ladder works entirely independently of the vehicle, meaning no power take off (PTO) is needed.
Single man, ergonomically designed basket is capable of 350 pounds.
Internal bridge mount design for easy access to the maximized cargo storage space. No pedestal in the way.
Made of durable, military-grade alloy, which is 48% lighter and three times stronger than conventional steel.
Superior, electrical-grade insulated fiberglass ladder sections provide 46Kv class C insulation certification.
No outriggers or stabilizers needed. Can be parked on sidewalks without taking up lanes of traffic. Optional outriggers available upon request.
No CDL required.
