Palfinger Platforms – other models: aerial work platforms on MAN TGL chassis from Löbau, 4,580 to 6,871 cm³, kerb weights of 7.3 to 17.5 t, lengths up to 10 m
This page covers aerial work platform vehicles from Palfinger Platforms, which mounts work platforms on truck chassis in Löbau, Saxony. The listed models are built on MAN TGL chassis, whose four- to six-cylinder diesel engines of 4,580 to 6,871 cm³ form the base, while Palfinger fits the hydraulic boom and work basket. The B/A and N/A designations in this selection refer to different chassis specification levels.

The register lists 4 versions with four- to six-cylinder engines of 4,580 to 6,871 cm³, kerb weights of 7,275 to 17,530 kg at a gross vehicle weight of 7,490 to 19,000 kg, lengths of 7,500 to 10,080 mm and widths of 2,510 to 2,550 mm.
Truck-mounted aerial work platforms are mainly used by utility companies, tree-care firms, municipalities and industrial operators for work at height; in this segment Palfinger competes with, among others, Bock, Ruthmann and the successor brands of Wumag, and demand comes both from rental fleets and from utilities operating their own vehicles.
When buying a used vehicle of this kind, check the condition of the hydraulic lines and boom, cracks in the work basket's welds, the function of the outriggers and safety cut-outs, and, on the MAN chassis, the usual wear points on brakes and running gear. Parts for the platform body come from Palfinger, for the chassis from MAN, and the service history of the platform should be checked separately from that of the underlying truck.

What to check before buying
