boom lift

Elevated work basket

A boom lift is a type of aerial work platform with an extendable arm that raises workers and equipment to elevated positions.

Unlike scissor lifts that go straight up, boom lifts can reach out horizontally and around obstacles: The crew used a boom lift to access the building's upper windows.

Also called a cherry picker or man lift.
