Rental company Josefssons Maskinuthyrning AB of Sweden has added seven new towable Omme Lifts to its fleet of rented trailer mounts.

Josefssons said towable lifts were popular machines in Sweden. During the summer months, it said it enjoyed almost full utilisation of its trailer-mounts, for customers that are equally split between contractors and private homeowners.

Pontus Josefsson, son of owner Clarence, said, “Many of our customers only use a trailer lift once a year so it is important that the machine is as easy to use as possible.

”The customer feedback about the Omme Lifts has been really positive. They like the simple and intuitive controls, for example how there is one joystick for one function. They also prefer the battery-powered Omme Lifts, saying they are easier to start up than the engine-powered trailers we previously had.”

The Jofefssons order included the Omme 1550 and 1830 articulated towable booms as well as a Mini 12 compact trailer. Josefssons purchased the fleet from Omme Lift's dealer in Sweden, Brubakken AS. Brubakken.
