Simon Aerials Ltd – other models: the collective page of towable aerial platforms outside the named ranges, the RTS170, RTZ-/60 and RTZ-160 types, 1,590 to 1,690 kg unladen weight, 1,600 to 1,760 kg gross weight
This page gathers the trailers of Simon Aerials Ltd, which the register could not assign to a named range. The suffix Ltd points to a British company; Simon Aerials was a British manufacturer of aerial work platforms. The listed types RTS170, RTZ-/60 and RTZ-160 carry short technical codes with no further recognisable pattern. As with many smaller trailer brands, the programme is drawn from registration data, in which each model is listed individually with its technical values.

The register lists here 3 versions with unladen weights from 1,590 to 1,690 kg, gross weights from 1,600 to 1,760 kg and widths from 1,790 to 1,830 mm.
Unlike ordinary load trailers, the unladen weight here is close to the gross weight, typical of trailers carrying an aerial platform or mast of their own with almost no extra payload. Such towable platforms are used in construction, maintenance work and event technology, where a fixed platform mounted on a truck is not needed.
On a used towable platform, the condition and tightness of the hydraulics, the function of the mast or scissor mechanism, the state of the outriggers, the chassis axle and brakes, and a valid inspection sticker for the platform itself all count in particular. Parts for a brand no longer active run through independent aerial-platform workshops and the used market.
