Hamburg, Michigan • Serving Southeast MichiganSkyTrak rough-terrain telehandlers from 6,000 to 10,000 lb and 34 to 42 ft of lift, plus the truss boom, jib and work platform that mount on them. For framers, roofers, pole barn builders and anyone landing pallets up high.
Our most compact telehandler: 6,000 lb and 34 ft 5 in of lift for houses, garages and tight residential lots.
Starting at $445 for up to 24 hours
Same 6,000 lb class as the 6034 with 42 ft 4 in of lift and 29 ft 6 in of reach: the pole barn and truss-setting machine.
Starting at $495 for up to 24 hours
42 ft 4 in of lift like the 6042 but 8,000 lb capacity and 1,600 lb at full reach for heavier trusses, beams and pallets.
Starting at $545 for up to 24 hours
Largest in the fleet: 10,000 lb capacity and still 6,000 lb at full height and full reach for steel, block and full pallets.
Starting at $645 for up to 24 hours
Fork-mounted basket that lifts a crew and tools to eaves, soffit and framing when the telehandler is already on site.
Starting at $100 for up to 24 hours
Adds 15 ft of reach with a hook so a telehandler can set trusses and long lumber or steel over a wall.
Starting at $100 for up to 24 hours
Adjustable 7 to 12 ft jib that hangs beams, pipe, tanks and precast from a hook so they can be lowered into place.
Starting at $100 for up to 24 hours
The SkyTrak 6034 lifts 34 ft 5 in and reaches 23 ft 2 in forward, which covers one- and two-story houses, garages and additions. The 6042 and 8042 lift 42 ft 4 in and reach 29 ft 6 in, enough to set trusses on a pole barn or land material in the middle of a building from outside the wall. The 10042 lifts 42 ft 1 in and reaches 26 ft 9 in.
Every telehandler loses capacity as the boom extends. The 6034 and 6042 handle 6,000 lb close in but 1,000 lb and 1,200 lb at full reach; the 8042 holds 1,600 lb at full reach; the 10042 holds 6,000 lb at full height and at full reach. Heavy trusses, steel and full pallets of block placed far from the machine point to the 8042 or 10042. The load chart in the cab is the final word.
For post-frame buildings, the 6042 or 8042 with the 15 ft truss boom sets trusses over the sidewalls, then lands roof steel and sheathing. For roofing and sheathing on a house or garage the 6034 usually has the height, and at 7 ft 11 in wide and 14,500 lb it is easier on tight lots and lawns than the 8 ft 6 in, 26,600 lb 10042. The pole barn guide lists the equipment in order.
The truss boom adds 15 ft of reach with a hook for setting trusses and long lumber or steel over a wall. The adjustable jib (7 to 12 ft) hangs beams, pipe, septic tanks and precast from a hook so they can be lowered into place. The work platform lifts a crew for short jobs at the eaves when the telehandler is already on site. All three reduce what the machine can lift, so plan from the load chart.
Helpful guides: Pole barn equipment guide
Yes. Operators need to be trained to run a telehandler, and every lift should be planned from the load chart in the cab, because capacity drops as the boom extends. Call 810-231-7368 if you have questions about your crew before booking.
Telehandlers are delivered and picked up on our own trucks, 7 days a week. Round-trip delivery is $350 within 1 to 45 minutes' drive of our Hamburg yard and $450 for 46 to 75 minutes. Beyond 75 minutes we quote the trip individually.
Telehandlers rent by the rental period: 1 to 24 hours, 1 week or 4 weeks. Run hours are unlimited; you pay for the time the machine is out, not what the hour meter says. Keep it longer than planned and the extra time is prorated from your rate, never more than the next full rental period.
All four SkyTraks are diesel: a 74 hp Deutz in the 6034, 6042 and 8042 and a 110 hp Cummins in the 10042. Fuel is billed at our cost with no markup.
For most post-frame buildings the 6042 or 8042 does it: 42 ft 4 in of lift and 29 ft 6 in of reach to set trusses over the walls with the truss boom, then land roof steel. Step up to the 10042 when you are placing heavy steel or full pallets at full reach. The pole barn equipment guide walks through the sequence.
No. Each rents separately and goes out alongside one of our telehandlers. Add the attachment to your quote when you book the machine.
