Bronto – other models: the collective page of trailer-mounted aerial platforms from Bronto Skylift of Tampere outside the named ranges, Skylift 207 to 209, gross weight up to 1,600 kg, length up to 6,900 mm
Bronto Skylift builds aerial work platforms in Tampere, Finland, and this collective page gathers the trailer versions of the brand that the register could not assign to a separate range – recognisable from model names such as Skylift 207, Skylift 209 and the type code SKYLIFT 14-2TI, where the first number gives the working height in metres and the second the axle count and boom type. Mounted on a trailer, these platforms can be towed to the work site with an ordinary trailer combination and set up on outriggers.

The register lists 14 versions with gross weights from 1,000 to 1,600 kg, lengths from 5,600 to 6,900 mm and widths from 1,570 to 2,100 mm.
Trailer-mounted aerial platforms of this size are used by landscaping and construction firms, roofers, electricians and municipal services, since they can be towed behind an ordinary vehicle without a truck licence while still reaching working heights a ladder cannot offer. Compared with self-propelled platforms they need less parking space and cost less to run.
When buying used, check the hydraulic cylinders and hoses for leaks, the function of the emergency lowering system, and the bearings and pins of the boom joint. The outriggers and their base plates should be checked for deformation, and the basket lock for a secure fit. The drawbar, overrun coupling and brake system of the chassis follow the usual trailer checkpoints; a current inspection certificate for the platform itself is required for commercial use.
