Older Versalift Cherry Picker Mounted On Dual Wheel Military Trailer
Here’s an idea that has paid off for our tree maintenance business. I bought an older model 30-ft. Versalift cherry picker and mounted it on a heavy-duty dual wheel military trailer. It’s powered by a salvaged 2-cyl. Wisconsin engine and hydraulic pump. I added fenders, a stainless steel gas tank, and a galvanized steel rear platform. I tow it with an SUV. The low ground pressure is great for backyard lawn work. I also have two 80-ft. lift trucks and two 50-ft. trucks but this is my go-to unit for residential work. I spent just $3,500 to put it together and have earned that back 10 times and counting. (John’s Tree Service, 14388 Altocedro Drive, Delray Beach, Fla. 33484)
