Marie Engstrom, Product Manager with Terex, Discusses the RL-4 Light Tower (Video!)
A few weeks ago, we visited Terex AWP (the company’s aerial work platform division) at its Rock Hill facility, just outside of Charlotte. We did an in-depth walk around of the new RL-4 portable light tower with Marie Engstrom, who knows just about everything when it comes to light towers. The new RL-4 will be released in both the Terex and Genie brands. Watch the video above to learn more or enjoy the product highlights below.
• The RL-4 light tower is 23.4 ft in height with a width of 59 in. and a stowed length of 85 in.
• It has four metal halide 1,000 W lamps (no LEDs)
• Its high-density polyethylene cover eliminates corrosion and dents
• The light tower also offers a smaller footprint which lets you haul up to 17 units on a 48-ft trailer instead of the 10 units you were limited to with the previous model
• The vertical mast has a unique internal mast brake
• The mast also offers 359 degree non-continuous tower rotation and a retractable mast cable.
• The new RL-4 light tower has a 45-gal tank and an efficient engine which extends the run time to as long as 90 hours
