This Altec D845T is a mounted digger derrick — sometimes referred to as a derrick digger or utility digger — a type of truck-mounted combination machine designed to drill holes, set utility poles, and handle heavy lifting tasks in the field. Altec is a well-established American manufacturer with a long history of producing aerial and utility equipment, including digger derricks, aerial work platforms, and related machinery for the electric utility, telecommunications, and tree care industries.
This 1991 unit is mounted on a GMC TopKick chassis, giving it a conventional truck-based configuration ready for road and job-site use. The derrick is rated for a sheave height of 44 feet, which describes the maximum height to which the boom's top sheave can be raised, and carries a lifting capacity of 27,000 pounds — a substantial load rating suited to setting heavy distribution and transmission poles. The machine is equipped with pole claws for gripping and positioning poles during installation, as well as a bed winch for additional material handling capability at the rear of the truck.
This unit is being offered used, located in Ohio, USA, at a price of $4,250 and is sold as-is. It is listed under stock number 2635.
