Who Needs the X1240
The X1240 is built for two-worker overhead tie-off on dynamic jobsites where permanent anchorage is not available and the unit needs to move from site to site: trailer and railcar loading, aircraft and heavy equipment maintenance, and high-ceiling facility work. The electric-hydraulic mast raises by remote control to 30 ft, four outrigger jacks stabilize the base on uneven ground, and the trailer tows at posted highway speed when the job moves.
Watch: Malta X1240 in ActionSee how the X1240 tows to the jobsite, levels on its outrigger jacks, and raises its electric-hydraulic mast to an overhead anchor point by remote control.
Features
Electric-hydraulic remote control
Raise, lower, and position the mast from a safe distance with a remote-operated electric hydraulic system.
Road-towable trailer
Tow at posted highway speed on a 7000 lb torsion axle with electric brakes and a 4-pole blade plug.
Two-worker capacity
Overhead tie-off points rated to 310 lbs each support the rated crew for fall arrest or fall restraint.
Up to 30 ft working height
An extending mast sets the overhead anchor high enough to clear trailers, rail cars, and large equipment.
Four outrigger jacks
Four manually adjustable jacks level and stabilize the base on uneven ground, with no drilling or ballast.
USA-made and tested
Built in a USA-based ISO 9001 certified facility and tested to meet and exceed OSHA anchorage requirements.
Tow only within the rated speed, set up on stable, level ground, and extend all four outrigger jacks before raising the mast or tying off. Confirm the unit is level, complete a daily visual inspection of the trailer, mast, jacks, and anchor points, and pair the unit with a compatible self-retracting lifeline; SRLs are not included.
Typical Applications
Trailer and railcar loading
Overhead tie-off for workers on top of trailers, tankers, and rail cars during loading and unloading.
Aircraft and heavy equipment
Position overhead anchors above aircraft or large machinery for maintenance and inspection.
High-ceiling facilities
Mobile overhead anchorage for service work where fixed roof or wall anchors are not available.
Remote and changing jobsites
Tow the unit between sites and deploy quickly with the electric-hydraulic mast and outrigger jacks.
