Tracked lift 12 metres for hire
Almac Jibbi 12.2 m — can be collected with an ordinary car.
The Almac Jibbi 1250 EVO is a tracked lift with 12.2 metres of working height. Its strongest selling point: the gross weight with trailer stays at around 3,500 kg, so you can collect it with an ordinary car instead of booking a hook-lift truck.
When do you need a tracked lift?
- Restricted access — a narrow passage between houses, through a gateway or a gate in a fence
- Soft or uneven ground — lawn, soil, gravel and forest floor where wheels dig in
- Slopes — the tracks give grip where a trailer lift cannot be set up safely
- Indoors on delicate floors — the weight is spread over the whole track surface
This is the type of lift we bring out when the customer says "there's no way to get to it".

Drive off the trailer, track the rest of the way
A trailer lift has to stand where the car can reverse it in. The Jibbi lift drives itself off the trailer on its tracks and carries on from there: through the gate, across the lawn, round the corner and into the back garden. That is why it is used on terraced houses with tight gardens, cabins on steep plots and back yards where no trailer can get in.
The lift is self-levelling. If it stands on a slope, it levels itself on its outriggers. You do not need to build up underneath with planks.
What can it reach?
The working height is 12.2 metres. That is usually enough for gutters and bargeboards on a two-storey house, and for gables and chimney flashings on most cabins. The outreach is 5.4–7 metres. That is shorter than on the trailer lifts, so you need to drive the lift close to the wall. With tracks, that is no problem either.
The platform takes 80 or 230 kg. The more you have in the platform, the shorter the outreach. Call if there will be two of you with equipment.
Collection and towing vehicle
The lift weighs 2,880 kg and sits on its own plant trailer. The trailer is 2.23 metres wide, and everything together weighs up to 3,500 kg. Your car must be permitted to tow 3,500 kg, and you need a BE driving licence. Check the registration certificate. If that is in order, you do not need to book a hook-lift truck.
If you do not have a car like that, we deliver.
A higher or heavier job?
If you need more height on difficult terrain, we have an electric tracked lift with 14.3 metres of working height, the Hered HA12CEA, and an 18-metre tracked lift with outriggers. If you are unsure which one suits you, you can read which lift to choose.
Questions and answers
Will it leave marks on the lawn?
The tracks spread the weight well, but on a soft lawn in wet weather there may be tracks. Lay down boards where you drive several times.
How narrow a passage can it get through?
Measure the narrowest point and call us. We will tell you honestly whether the lift will get through.
Can I collect it with an ordinary car?
The car must be permitted to tow 3,500 kg, and you need a BE driving licence. Not all cars are permitted to do so, so check the registration certificate.
Can it be used on steep terrain?
It is made for slopes and levels itself on its outriggers. Describe the ground when you call and we will assess it.
