The new Star 6 Crawler offers excellent terrain capabilities, providing the operator easy access to all jobsites. The crawling system not only enables the mast to go over the roughest terrains but also significantly reduces the ground pressure, which is essential for driving on sensitive floors. It operates both indoor and outdoor, up to 6 m working height. It is thus ideal for various applications: maintenance, finishing, landscaping, sporting and other events.

Optimal productivity in any ground condition
Haulotte’s new electric rough-terrain vertical mast Star 6 Crawler can get over unstable, wet or uneven grounds and cross slopes up to 25%. A mobile axis on the intermediate oscillating rollers provides optimal ground adherence. The machine can elevate inside and outside on any kind of flat surface: it is particularly suited for working on fragile floors thanks to its low ground pressure. The mast architecture also ensures optimal stability: the 200 kg load capacity enables 2 operators to work indoors with confidence. For better comfort and efficiency, a 40 cm basket extension offers an extra outreach.

High compactness and precise driving
Star 6 Crawler’s AC motors provide high torque and excellent maneuverability. The new vertical mast offers smooth and proportional movements for unmatched precision and safety. With its narrow turning radius, operators can maneuver in the most confined spaces.

Smart features to make daily work easier
Haulotte added numerous practical details in its new Star mast to make life easier on a jobsite. Looking at the platform, a non-skid step integrated into the machine’s design and a swing door entry gate allow safe entry. The vibration-proof rubber buffers under the platform ensure a smooth lowering. The ergonomic control box gathers all commands together so that they are all accessible with one hand. For maximum flexibility, the Star 6 Crawler can be lifted lengthwise during transport phases thanks to dedicated forklift pockets.

A maintenance-free mast designed to reduce downtime costs
All components are protected against water projections and are easily accessible in order to facilitate the maintenance. The Star 6 Crawler is equipped with AGM batteries and asynchronous motors that require no regular maintenance. The mast’s simple architecture with no chain and no cable minimizes risks of breakage. The tracks and charger plug are also protected from shocks as they are located inside the chassis frame. In order to save time in troubleshooting, operators can access the Activ’Screen display and functions thanks to the Haulotte Diag app.
