Rent Spider Lifts – Maximum Reach on Difficult Terrain

Spider lifts are the right choice when wheels fail: on rough terrain, sensitive floors, and in confined indoor spaces. Luibl rents spider lifts from leading manufacturers such as CTE, Teupen, Hinowa, and Leguan, with working heights from 13 to 40 metres – delivered across Europe via our own low-loader fleet within a network of more than 200 locations.

The tracked undercarriage spreads the machine's weight over a large contact area – minimal ground pressure, maximum protection for sensitive surfaces. The non-marking rubber tracks leave barely any marks on parquet, marble, or tiled floors with underfloor heating. On rough terrain, tracked platforms handle gradients of up to 30% and drive safely through mud, sand, and gravel. Key technical specifications of our tracked platforms:

• Working height: 13 m to 40 m
• Load capacity: 200 kg to 400 kg
• Outreach: up to 17 m
• Retracted width: from 78 cm – fits through standard doorways
• Max. gradient: 30%
• Drive: Bi-Energy (diesel/petrol + electric 230V/battery)
• Turret rotation: 360° continuous

• Articulated telescopic tracked platforms (CTE TRACCESS series): Jointed boom for overhead work above obstacles – galleries, pipework, ceiling beams.
• Telescopic tracked platforms (Teupen LEO series, up to 40 m): Maximum outreach of up to 17 m, fast positioning for facade work and tree canopy maintenance.

• Tree care & forestry work: Narrow models (from 78 cm) reach backyards and park grounds.
• Churches, museums & heritage protection: Emission-free operation plus non-marking tracks protect historic fabric.
• Industrial maintenance & facility management: Precise manoeuvring in tight workshop halls.
• Construction sites with difficult terrain: Mud, sand, gravel, and gradients of up to 30%.
• Shopping centres & gymnasiums: Emission-free operation and low point loading.
• Advertising & signage installation: 360° rotation saves repositioning time.

Under the VUV, aerial work platforms may only be operated by instructed personnel. At the start of the rental, your staff receive proper instruction on operating the spider lift. For further qualifications, we recommend a certified aerial work platform course to IPAF standard.

Luibl delivers your spider lift with our own low-loader directly to the site – in Passau, Lower Bavaria, Austria, and beyond, across Europe. Our own transport logistics ensure punctual delivery, professional handover, and reliable collection. For work on level ground, we also offer articulated and telescopic aerial work platforms for rent.

Which surfaces are spider lifts best suited for?

Spider lifts are the first choice for pressure-sensitive and uneven floors. They are ideal for lawns, parquet, marble, tiled floors with underfloor heating, as well as for outdoor terrain with mud, sand, or gradients of up to 30%.

Do spider lifts fit through standard doorways?

Yes. Many models have a retracted width of only 78 to 90 cm and pass easily through standard interior doors, garden gates, and narrow industrial passageways.

What drive system do the tracked platforms have?

All rental units are equipped with a Bi-Energy drive: diesel/petrol for outdoor use, electric motor (230V or battery) for emission-free indoor operation.

How does the outrigger support work on uneven terrain?

The four outriggers can be controlled independently and positioned asymmetrically. This safely compensates for terrain slopes of up to 30% and steps.

How far does Luibl deliver?

Luibl delivers with its own low-loader throughout Switzerland and across Europe. Our main location is Passau; we make regular deliveries throughout Germany, Austria, and other European countries.
