PartnerLift company adds EasyLift to its rental fleet
SCHMID Hebebühnenverleih GmbH in Haimhausen near Munich recently took delivery of an EasyLift RA31 spider lift from Rothlehner. The company, run by company founder Josef Schmid and his sons as well as co-managing directors Mario and Philipp, is well known to industry insiders. The PartnerLift company rents out all categories of work platforms as well as telehandlers and cranes in the Munich, Augsburg and Landsberg area.
The business relationship between Rothlehner and Schmid rental began in the 80s, when both were still pioneers in DENKA•LIFT. In the following decades, Josef Schmidt purchased several DENKA•LIFTs and GSR truck miunted platforms from the dealer Rothlehner.
At the end of May, the Schmid family decided to add an RA31 spider from the EasyLift brand to their rental program. The performance data of the device was ultimately convincing. The decisive factors were 89cm passage width, 300kg maximum basket load and the weight of 4,400kg. Likewise the high up-and-over point, the maximum outreach of 14.50m and the hybrid drive made of Kubota diesel and lithium battery.
The RA31 can also be used to work down to 7 meters into the negative range. The stabilisation is variable, radio remote control and an electro-hydraulic emergency lowering are also standard. With a jib and rotating basket, the machine is suitable for a variety of indoor and outdoor applications.
EasyLift produces spider lifts with working heights from 13 to 53m, in both telescopic and articulated telescopic designs. Rothlehner has been a dealer for the Italian manufacturer in Germany, Austria and the other countries in which the group is active since 2020. The experience gained so far with the brand and those responsible in Brescello is very good. The products receive consistently positive feedback on the market, not least because of the good price-performance ratio.
Solid lead planning enables Rothlehner to offer the entire range of EasyLift crawler work platforms with consistent delivery times, even in times of limited resources.
We wish Schmid rental always successful operations with the new spider lift !
18m telescopic truck for airport GmbH
BER Airport is the gateway to the world for the Berlin-Brandenburg region. The various airport companies already have several work platforms of various categories from Rothlehner. The “Lighting” department recently received a GSR B180T truck work platform on a Mercedes Sprinter 315CDI.
In aviation, lighting largely refers to light signals, e.g. on runway lights or on buildings. The work platforms are used for assembly, maintenance and repairs to ensure operations at the airport.
The B180T with 3-stage telescopic boom offers 17.70m working height, max. 12.70m lateral reach and max. 300kg in the basket. The Comfort X can be supported variably, i.e. it can be supported either on one side, narrowly or wide. This function is particularly helpful in tight spaces when you only want to work on one side. Like all GSR, the B180T Comfort X is robustly built and offers ergonomic, easy operation.
As a special equipment package, the customer opted for an automatic support system and home function. A folding side wall was also installed and flashing lights on the rotating tower.
We wish you successful operations with the new GSR B180T at all times!
18m articulated telescopic trailer platform for climbing bar
KletterBar GmbH operates climbing halls in Offenbach, Kiel, Hanover and Münster. With the company KletterBau GmbH, the managing directors Lutz Karpowitz and Christoph Staehle also specialize in the planning and construction of climbing halls. The concept is modern and cozy climbing halls that combine a sports facility and bar and invite you to linger.
The company has invested in two of its own work platforms to create new climbing routes and to support the construction of new halls. The choice fell on the Europelift TM18GTi trailer work platform. The articulated telescope offers a working height of 18m and a lateral reach of 10.50m and can be used indoors and outdoors. Thanks to the movable basket arm and rotating work basket, even angled corners can be easily reached.
We wish you successful operations with the new work platforms at all times!
14m articulated telescope on Ford Ranger
Bloehm Industrieservice from Großosida near Zeitz in Saxony-Anhalt has taken over a GSR E140P from Rothlehner. The company specializes in the cleaning and maintenance of commercial properties nationwide. In addition to industry, customers also include municipalities and authorities.
The company uses various work platforms to clean facades, solar systems or gutters. A compact GSR E140P on a Ford Ranger 4×4 chassis has now been purchased for areas up to 13 meters high. With a support width of just 2.12m, the device can also cope well in narrow streets and, thanks to all-wheel drive, even off-road. 13.25m working height, 6.05m lateral reach and 250kg basket load in the entire working area form the performance data of the GSR E140P.
The team around owner Michael Blöhm and managing director Daniela Gartz has decided on extensive special equipment. Among other things, the E140P delivered has:
LED flash light on the driver’s cab, reversing camera, holder for traffic cones, side wall 200mm, stainless steel storage box, cable winch with 4,300kg pulling force and radio remote control.
We wish you always successful operations with the new truck work platform!
7.5 ton truck stage with top equipment
Andreas Fischer is a professional forestry entrepreneur based in the Upper Franconian district of Kronach. His services as a logging contractor include providing forestry services. The felling operations often take place in impassable terrain, for example when railway and power lines are being cut clear again after a storm. These requirements require a machine with very good off-road mobility and high support lift.
The choice was therefore a GSR B220TJ on a MB Atego 823 AF 4×4 chassis. The off-road vehicle with single off-road tires and large support lift offers a working height of 22 m, a lateral reach of over 13.2 m and a basket load of 250 kg. Vertical supports with a high support lift ensure secure stability even on terrain.
The device has a long, movable basket arm and a rotatable basket, which can also be used to control angled locations. Vertical supports are used at the front and rear; the support is vehicle-wide.
Depending on individual customer requirements, a variety of special equipment can be installed on 7.5t truck platforms, which is not possible on 3.5t models for weight reasons. Andreas Fischer chose these options for his B220TJ, among others:
– Holder for traffic cones
– folding aluminum side walls, 200 mm high
– Automatic support + home function
– Wiper brushes on the telescopic ends
– Hardwood saw protection edge on work basket
– Storage box 500 x 500 x 1400 mm
We wish you successful operations with the new GSR truck work platform at all times!

Spider Lift was safely brought into prestige object
Not far from the Gänsemarkt in the city of Hamburg, there is currently one of the most notable construction projects. The completion of the Deutschlandhaus by the ABG Real Estate Group in collaboration with the star architect Hadi Teherani is currently on the home stretch. In addition to 30 apartments on 9 floors, Haspa Bank will be the main tenant in the building.
A compact caterpillar platform was included in the plans for maintenance work inside, as well as for caring for the palm trees in the atrium. Rothlehner won the contract with the EasyLift R210. The device was recently introduced into the property in a remarkable event.
For structural reasons, the only possible access was a narrow, uncovered space located around 40 meters within the property boundaries. In order to bring in the work platform and other bulky items, the access road was closed on Sunday, September 24th 2023, and the latest mobile crane from Gustav Seeland GmbH, a Grove GMK6450-1, was made available as a 300-tower. With over 100 employees, the heavy goods logistics provider offers Europe-wide special transport, truck crane work, industrial assembly, engineering services and heavy goods storage. The Seeland team, in collaboration with those responsible at Rothlehner, professionally attached the R210 spider lift and brought it safely and carefully into the building.
31 meter spider lift goes to Berlin
The Golf- und Land-Club Berlin-Wannsee e.V. has taken over an EasyLift RA31 spider lift platform.
Founded in 1895, the club is a private golf club in the Berlin district of Wannsee and the oldest golf club in Germany. The spacious square is in the immediate vicinity of Wannsee, nestled between old trees.
Because of the large number of trees, it was decided to invest in an own aerial work platform on a chain chassis. With the RA31, the Wannsee Golf Club is getting a device with an enormous reach and working height. The operator has a working height of 30.20m, a lateral reach of 14.50m and 300kg in the basket. With a weight of only 4,200kg. The device can also work up to 7 meters in the negative range, which is advantageous on embankments, for example. The minimum passage width is only 0.89m, the passage height is 2.04m. The crawler work platform comes as standard with a hybrid drive (consisting of 230V mains & Kubota diesel engine) and a radio remote control.
The Wannsee Golf Club has opted for an automatic levelling, home-function, basket load increase from 230kg to 300kg and large sliding base plates as special accessories.
Thanks to solid advance planning, we were able to hand over a stock machine with the appropriate equipment just one week after the order was placed. We wish you every success with the crawler platform EasyLift RA31!
1,500th GSR truck-mounted work platform sold via Rothlehner, 9,000 sold worldwide by GSR
In July we received the 1,500th order for a new GSR aerial work platform. In this case it is a B220TJ Compact on a Mercedes Atego all-wheel drive for municipal use. Delivery will take place next year.
With our partner GSR we offer a complete range of truck products. Rothlehner has been selling the devices from the northern Italian manufacturer in Germany and other European markets for around 20 years. On the one hand, the 3.5 to vehicles form the basis for most rental fleets; the special vehicles with a total weight of 5 tons, 7.5 tons or 18 tons are sold, for example, by rental companies, in industry, in the municipal sector and in landscaping.
Decisive are the many possible combinations with different, partly all-terrain carrier vehicles and the possibility of realizing individual customer requests and special solutions.
The municipal sector was also the target group for the first GSR aerial work platform. In 1980, the first 14 m articulated work platforms went to a state energy supplier, after which other customer groups such as end users and rental companies were developed.
By the way, at the BAUMA in October 2022 there will be the serial number 9,000, i.e. the 9,000th device that GSR has ever produced. And a novelty at 3.5 t.
Müller Arbeitsbühnen-Vermietung invests in three new DENKA•LIFTs
Müller Arbeitsbühnen GmbH from Dresden, Germany started renting out the first DENKA•LIFTs from Rothlehner in the early 1990s. The rental offer includes all types of work platforms, as well as mobile scaffolding, forklifts and furniture lifts.
In 2022, the company placed an order for three DENKA•LIFT DK18 trailer platforms to rejuvenate the rental park. The first two platforms from this package were recently handed over in Dresden.
The DENKA•LIFT DK18 offers a working height of 18m, a maximum reach of 11.30m and a basket load of 200kg. The Denka devices are characterized by simple operation, durability and high value retention.

We wish you every success!
13 meter telescopic device complements the rental park
The Handke work platform rental company has been one of our valued customers since the early 1990s, when company founder Gerd Handke started renting out the first DENKA•LIFT trailer lifts. The company, based in Lutherstadt Wittenberg, has since expanded its rental fleet and offers a comprehensive range of work platforms, including trailer, truck, self-propelled and scissor lifts. Today the company is continued by company owner Matthias Vohr.
Recently we were allowed to hand over another trailer lift; an Europelift TM13T.
The 13 meter telescopic model offers 220kg basket load and 9 meter outreach. With the help of the low weight of 1,600kg, a standard maneuvering drive and a clearance height of less than 2m, the TM13T can also reach areas that are difficult to access.
We wish you every success with the new lift!

25m trailer platform ideally suited for the operations
Lars Müller and his company have specialized in tree felling. Based in Pausa-Mühltroff in the Vogtland district of Saxony, he takes on the felling and care of trees.
For this work he has been using DENKA•LIFT trailer work platforms for a long time. The 25m telescopic Mopdell DK25 is already the third device of this type that we were allowed to deliver and replaces an older device in the fleet.

Private people fulfil their dream
The trend is going to having an own aerial lift. This is also the case with the Zuber family from Röslau in Upper Franconia, who have fulfilled their dream of having their own work platform. On the large property there is a lot of work where a working platform is a great relief.
The choice fell on an EasyLift R130 crawler work platform.
With a working height of 12.20m and a lateral reach of 6.5m with a basket load of 200kg, the agile R130 covers many areas of application.
With a 230V and Honda direct drive, the R130 is also ideal for working indoors. The device has a width-adjustable chain chassis and is very manoeuvrable with a length of 4.25 m; the basket is removable (minimum passage width 0.84m), which reduces the minimum maneuvering length to just 3.55m. A wired remote control was chosen as an optional extra.
We wish you every success with the new Easylift R130!
Europelift TM13T goes to Upper Franconia
The holiday farm of the Groh family from Konradsreuth near Hof in Upper Franconia offers family-friendly holidays and relaxation on the farm. In addition, several holiday apartments are rented out.
The Groh family has now invested in their own trailer work platform for the maintenance work on the farm, holiday apartments and other properties.
The choice fell on the Europelift TM13T. The telescopic model offers 220kg basket load and 9 meters lateral reach. With a passage height of less than 2m and a rotatable basket, even areas that are difficult to access can be reached. With this device, the customer opted for a pure battery drive. (Standard with 230V mains drive)
We wish you every success with the new lift!
The sheet metal and roofing company Nietner from Issigau, near Hof in Upper Franconia, recently took delivery of a GSR B220PXE.
Reinhard Nietner’s master craftsman’s company was founded in 2004 and has now grown into one of the largest roofing companies in the Hof area with a team of 8 people. In addition to competent advice, the services include a large number of roof-related services; all from a single source.
It has long been considered to purchase a separate working platform for working at height. The investment was made this year and the decision was made to go for a GSR B220PXE articulated telescopic platform.
The B220PXE offers 21.50m working height, max. 250kg basket load and max. 11.20m lateral reach with 120kg in the basket. Electrohydraulic proportional control with variable stabilisers at the front and vertical outriggers at the rear. The Nietner company has opted for an equipment package with, among other things, automatic levelling, side walls and traffic cone holders.
The B220PXE Comfort has a uniquely flat basket linkage. With the absolutely level basket underside and the basket rotation range of 180°, the PXE is predestined for work on the roof. The up and over function of the double joint, which is typical for articulated telescopic work platforms, and the large lateral reach of 11.20 m with a basket load of 120 kg make many applications possible in the first place.
The Rothlehner team on an excursion to Italy:
As a work platform dealer with more than 40 years of experience, we know how important cooperation with our manufacturer partners is. Mutual visits therefore take place regularly. This is what happened at the beginning of May when a delegation from the Rothlehner Company Group visited the working platform manufacturers GSR (truck working platforms) and Easylift (crawler working platforms).
Our sales team from Germany and Austria, as well as the workshop management from Massing took the trip. First we went to GSR in Rimini, where we could get a first-hand insight into the current models and innovations. The next day we went to Easylift in Brescello, where we were introduced to the latest innovations and special equipment as part of product training.
Such visits are finally possible again and mean added value for both sides. Not only because of the obligatory meetings and training courses, these personal meetings also contribute to long-term, fair partnerships based on trust. Problems in sales and service can be discussed in a very transparent manner and suggestions for improvement and solutions can be found.
Big thanks to the GSR and Easylift teams for the hospitality. In this way, we can master the challenges of the future together.
22m truck mounted work platform with lots of special equipment options
AKE-EBS Energieanlagen GmbH from Zwickau. Germany specializes in the construction and maintenance of overhead line and cable systems in the low and medium voltage range up to 30kV. Some of the maintenance and cleaning work is also carried out under voltage.
Now the company has replaced an older 16m truck-mounted work platform with a new GSR B220TJ with 1,000V isolation and a number of other individual equipment options. In this case, the basis for this is provided by an MB 414CDI chassis, which enables a higher payload and the realization of heavy attachments.

Spider Lift R190 for maintenance and cleaning of photo-voltaic systems
Company owner Christian Kuhfs from Lützen in Saxony Anhalt specializes in civil engineering and assembly work for PV systems, as well as their rental and maintenance. So far, working platforms have been rented for works at height.
Now the decision was made to buy their own spider lift, whereby the choice fell on an Easylift R190. The main reason is the simple control, the appealing performance data and a good price-performance ratio.
Mr. Kuhfs has opted for non-marking gray chains, an automatic levelling function, large shims and a flashing light on the basket as special equipment.
The track mounted R190 is particularly suitable for off-road requirements, for narrow access roads and areas with low floor loads. The climbing ability is 30% slope. Particularly noteworthy in this model is the variable and sectional outrigger setting with enormously lift, the compact dimensions and the very simple operation. Hoses for air and water are also part of the standard equippment.
With a working height of 18.50m, a maximum lateral reach of 11m and a maximum basket load of 200kg, the R190 is suitable for a wide range of applications. The total weight of the fully hydraulic chain work platform is approx. 2,830kg. The overall height is just under 2m and the minimum passage width (without basket) is approx. 0.93m, the minimum transport length is 4.80m. The work basket can be rotated by 180°. The device has a hybrid drive as standard, consisting of a 230V mains drive and a Honda GX390 petrol engine.

Recently we delivered an 18m articulated telescope spider lift Easylift R180 to Sulingen. The painting company Fischer has been offering its customers for more than 20 years painting work in the interior and exterior, as well as wood protection work and facade plastering work.

With a working height of 17.60m, a maximum lateral reach of 8.5m at 120kg, as well as a maximum basket weight of 200kg, the R180 is the ideal device for a variety of applications.
As a drive, this model offers a standard standard hybrid drive made of 230V mains & Honda GX390 petrol engine.

A width-adjustable chain chassis, 2,330kg weight, minimum passage width of 0.89m and a min. length of 4.78 m make this model very suitable for narrow access roads and areas with low soil load.
