Boom Lift Refurbishment
Bring Your Boom Lift Back to Work
Extend the life of your boom lift with a structured refurbishment process designed to restore performance, improve reliability, and help you avoid the cost of buying new. Our process includes evaluation, tear down, rebuild, and final quality control testing.
Step 1: Evaluation
Every project starts with a full machine evaluation.
We perform:
- A complete walk-around inspection
- A full function test
- Safety switch verification
- Hydraulic pressure checks
- Function cycle time recording
- Diagnostic log file review
This allows us to identify the machine’s condition and flag any repairs outside the standard refurbishment scope.
Step 2: Tear Down
The machine is fully disassembled into three main assemblies:
- Boom
- Turntable
- Chassis
Our team uses a cataloging system during disassembly to keep the rebuild organized and efficient. Structural components are then sent for sandblasting and painting, while hydraulic cylinders are sent out for rebuild. Tear down typically takes 2–3 days.
Step 3: Build Up
While major components are being rebuilt and painted, our technicians begin preparing the remaining parts for reassembly.
During this stage, we:
- Manufacture new hydraulic hoses
- Reseal torque hubs
- Transfer and prep electrical components
Once finished components return, the machine is rebuilt in sections, with teams working on the chassis, turntable, and boom at the same time to keep the process moving efficiently.
Step 4: Quality Control
After assembly, the unit goes through a detailed quality control inspection.
This includes:
- Multiple inspector review
- Punch list creation
- Repair sign-off by technicians
- Final full functionality test
The final test mirrors the original evaluation to confirm that repairs and replacements resolved all identified issues.
What’s Typically Replaced
Standard refurbishment commonly includes replacement of:
- Pins, bushings, thrust washers, and keepers
- Hydraulic filters
- Engine filters
- Belts and tensioners
- Turntable bearing
- Boom cables
- Boom wear pads
- Platform, support, and control box
- Boom hoses and power cables
- Platform rotator
- Power track assembly
- Push tubes
- Decals
- Manuals and storage box
Additional items like the hydraulic swivel may be rebuilt or replaced depending on condition.
Why Refurbish Instead of Replace?
Keep the Machine You Know
You already know the machine’s history, usage, and maintenance record.
Built to Original Specifications
Your lift is rebuilt to its original serial number specs, helping avoid unnecessary upgrades to newer electronic systems.
Flexible to Your Budget
Choose a full rebuild or a more tailored refurbishment plan based on your needs.
Customizable Options
Add OEM options or request custom paint to match your fleet.
Lower Cost Than New
Refurbishment is typically much more cost-effective than replacing the machine.
A More Sustainable Option
Refurbishing extends machine life, reduces waste, and lowers the environmental impact of buying new equipment.
