Air-tow’s commitment to creating a safe work environment is evident in the trailers’ construction. Beyond standard safety components such as a breakaway switch, steel deck, and tie-downs, Air-tow trailers are equipped with additional features that make them safer than the average trailer. Air-tow deliberately designs each model to reduce hazards with unique and enhanced trailer features. Here are five additional safety features that Air-tow Trailers provide as a standard for all models.

 Ground-Level Loading  

Traditional trailers often require ramps for loading and unloading, which can cause potential risk. Ramps pose the danger of equipment slipping or tipping over during loading, leading to possible injuries or damages. Air-tow Trailers eliminate this risk by offering ground-level loading, allowing for safe and easy loading and unloading. Ground-level loading is accomplished by a hydraulic system that enables the bed to be lowered flush to ground level when loading and unloading and raised when towing. 

   

The low-clearance design of scissor lifts makes transporting them a major challenge. With its durable build and innovative ground-level loading technology providing safety and efficiency, Air-tow Trailers is the ultimate scissor lift trailer. Air-tow is the perfect solution for transporting various brands of scissor lifts, such as JLG, Genie, Skyjack, Haulotte, and Snorkel.

The Challenge of Loading Scissor Lifts

Scissor lifts are commonly used in many industries. They are known for their ability to provide stable and elevated work platforms. However, transporting them can cause major challenges because of their structure. They are low to the ground and often have small wheels. Traditional loading methods involving ramps or tilt beds can be hazardous. Ramps create steep angles that can tip the scissor lift over, especially during the loading and unloading process. Additionally, the uneven weight distribution on ramps increases the risk of accidents.
