Who Uses the Palazzani TZJ 160 Spider Cherry Picker?

The TZJ 160 is the go-to compact spider cherry picker for professionals who need genuine working height in places a standard cherry picker cannot reach.

Arborists and Tree Surgeons

Rely on the TZJ 160 for its low ground pressure rubber tracks, which protect root systems and sensitive ground surfaces that wheeled machines would damage. At 16m working height with 7.5m of outreach it gives tree surgeons the reach they need without the footprint they cannot afford.

Indoor Maintenance and Facilities Teams

Choose the TZJ 160 because it fits through a standard single doorway at 775mm stowed width. Whether it is a warehouse, sports hall, shopping centre, or historic building, the TZJ 160 gets in where other spider lifts cannot.

Heritage and Restoration Contractors

Value the TZJ 160 for its ability to work on sensitive surfaces without damage. The electric and Eco Pro hybrid options mean zero fumes indoors, keeping the machine fully compliant on sites where diesel is not permitted.

Roofing and Building Maintenance Contractors

Use the TZJ 160 for external facade inspections, gutter maintenance, and roof edge access where a van mounted cherry picker cannot get close enough to the building and the ground conditions rule out a scissor lift.

Power Options — Palazzani TZJ 160

The TZJ 160 is available in four configurations making it one of the most adaptable compact spider cherry pickers on the market.

Diesel

Yanmar engine, ideal for outdoor access on construction sites and open terrain.

Petrol

Outdoor capability with a lighter footprint, suited to sites where diesel handling is restricted.

Eco Electric

230 VAC mains power, zero fumes and low noise. Fully compliant for indoor use where diesel is prohibited.

Eco Pro Hybrid

Switches between mains electric and battery power. The best choice for contractors moving between indoor and outdoor sites.

Who Uses the Palazzani TZJ 160 Spider Cherry Picker?

Built for the jobs others cannot reach, the TZJ 160 combines compact dimensions with genuine performance across a range of demanding access environments.


Agile in the Tightest Spaces

At 775mm stowed width the TZJ 160 navigates standard doorways, narrow corridors, and tight urban sites without modification. Purpose built for restricted access where other spider cherry pickers simply cannot go.

Stable on Ground Others Would Avoid

Extendable rubber tracks, auto self-levelling up to 15 degrees, and a 25 degree gradeability rating keep the TZJ 160 stable on soft ground, slopes, and uneven terrain. All operations comply with IPAF safety standards for working at height.

Electric and Hybrid Options as Standard

The Eco and Eco Pro configurations deliver zero fume indoor operation and full ESG compliance. Built to meet HSE construction site emissions guidance, the TZJ 160 keeps you compliant whether your site prohibits diesel or your client demands a greener solution.

Two Operators, One Machine

The 230kg basket capacity and 7.5m outreach mean two people can work at height simultaneously without a second spider lift on site. More work done, fewer machines needed, lower overall project cost.

Easy to Transport, Easy to Deploy

At 2,515kg the TZJ 160 is light enough to trail on a standard trailer without a specialist low loader. Built and tested to Palazzani’s manufacturing standards, it arrives on site ready to work with minimal setup time.

Backed by CPL Care
