Diversified Products Fall Arrest Service Crane Basket

Diversified Products has introduced the next generation of its fall arrest service crane basket, which is designed for accessing high-reach maintenance areas, especially on large equipment.

The new yoke-style baskets quickly attach to service cranes, providing personnel with a convenient, safe alternative to renting aerial lifts, using ladders or climbing on equipment.

Diversified’s baskets include a bracket for attaching to most available service crane trucks. For easy storage and transport, the baskets are also offered with a new specialized carrier, which installs behind the truck in the receiver hitch. This system allows operators to carry the baskets with them from site to site without tying up space in their truck beds.

For maximum durability the service crane baskets are constructed of heavy-duty steel. The full-sized floor is 30 inches wide by 30 inches deep, and the inward-opening doors are designed to save space, promote easy entry and provide additional worker safety.

Other standard features include floor slots to drain water, upset holes to prevent slippage, lanyard attach points, and a low-maintenance, high-capacity caliper brake to increase stability. These features allow the man baskets to meet or exceed ASME standard B30.23 and OSHA 29 CFR 1926 requirements for personnel lifting systems.

Options include a step for added convenience, a stand for installation on uneven ground or large cranes, and a CSA-approved upper basket enclosure.

In addition to service crane baskets, Diversified offers a full line of yoke-style, rotating and custom-built man baskets for other types of equipment.

Diversified Products offers a wide range of attachments for cranes, knucklebooms and digger derricks.
