Van bucket truck forSte 12VT Tronquée

The forSte 12VT Cut-Out van bucket truck is a telescopic platform with a fixed basket arm, mounted on a van in a cut-out configuration that makes it highly compact. Its generous outreach gives a large, unrestricted working area, so the full basket capacity can be used even at maximum reach.

Two versions of the 12VT Cut-Out van bucket truck

The platform can be fitted in two versions: without stabilisers, with a one-person basket, or with two stabilisers and a two-person basket for the operators and their materials.

Reduced length, greater mobility

In the Cut-Out version the rear of the van is modified so the fixed basket arm sits within the van’s original outline, removing the rear mounting platform of the standard 12VT. This shortens the overall length and makes the vehicle more mobile.

Powerful and easy to use

Carefully engineered high-strength steel booms and an optimised vehicle installation give a powerful van platform with excellent functionality. The 12VT Cut-Out stands out for its ease of use, reliability and low body weight.

The ergonomic, proportional basket controls are highly precise, giving the operator constant control, a choice of movement speeds and the ability to combine movements. The emergency controls are in the cab, keeping the load area clear and improving the driver’s view.

Designed with the customer in mind

All components, hoses, cables and extension cylinders are housed inside the boom for extra protection against damage or failure.

High payload capacity

The installation takes up the minimum of space in the load area, making the most of the van’s remaining capacity after the cut-out conversion. An extensive range of options lets the equipment be tailored to each customer. Full technical data is shown in the specification table on this page.
