Overcenter Bucket Trucks

CUES, Inc. offers overcenter bucket trucks with vertical working heights up to 75 ft, such as the Versalift VO270. Heights in the lineup range from 65 ft to 75 ft, with side reaches up to 50 ft, making them suitable for high-canopy forestry, utility line clearance, and tall structure maintenance.

Dielectric testing verifies that the boom material can withstand electrical current without conducting it, protecting operators working near energized power lines. Both upper and lower booms on Versalift overcenter units are dielectrically tested, ensuring compliance with electrical safety standards and providing an added layer of protection for crews in utility and line clearance environments.

Models like the Versalift VO260 and VO270 feature 360-degree continuous rotation and up to 75 ft of vertical reach, making them ideal for arborist companies and vegetation management crews.

CUES, Inc. offers overcenter bucket trucks in both diesel and gasoline configurations. The Versalift VO270 is powered by a 325 HP 6.7L Cummins diesel engine, while the VO260 uses a 335 HP 7.3L gasoline engine on a Ford F-750 chassis. Both deliver reliable heavy-duty performance suited to demanding field conditions.
