With the attached external platform, which can be loaded with 200 kg, the total basket load is still up to 460 kg.

The workman basket can still be used as normal and can be telescoped out to a width of 3.82 m. The outer platform has plastic protective elements at the edges, allowing the workman basket to be driven very close to the object. The workman is secured to the workman basket by means of PPE and has completely free access to the object without any struts on the workman basket blocking his view or hindering his work. In the meantime, the STEIGER\u00ae operator can pass material from the workman basket or support the tradesman in other ways on the external work surface. Depending on the reach, operators have an additional 300 kg capacity for assembly materials in the workman basket     <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ruthmann.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/STEIGER&#xAE;_T650_HF_-Frontansicht_2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1729\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>With the external platform, the EU type-tested RUTHMANN STEIGER\u00ae T 650 HF reaches a working height of 65 m and can be used, for example, for roof repairs or the installation of photovoltaic systems at great heights.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p>Without the external platform and with the full maximum basket load of 590 kg, the STEIGER\u00ae <strong>T 650 HF<\/strong> achieves a lateral outreach of 36 m, and up to 43 m with a lower basket load.
