The Traverse T8044 features a 70-in. horizontal boom travel at every height, which lets operators lift and land loads in hard-to-reach locations. The product has a lift capacity of 8000 lbs and a lift height up to 44½ ft. A frame sway feature offers an industry-leading leveling of 12 deg to the left or right and allows leveling of the machine and load simultaneously when working over rough and uneven terrain.
