Skylift Patriot 40/50 Digger Derrick

The Skylift Patriot 40/50 delivers tracked digger derrick performance where utility trucks can't go—built for off-road reliability.

Description

The Skylift Patriot 40/50 Digger Derrick stands as one of the largest tracked off-road digger derricks on the market, engineered specifically for utility crews who need to access challenging job sites. Whether tackling tough terrain or working in areas inaccessible to standard utility trucks, the Patriot 40/50 provides reliable performance and robust construction. With 40-foot and 50-foot boom options, this unit offers flexibility for a range of utility pole setting and material handling tasks.

Originally released in 2011, the Patriot series is purpose-built for heavy lifting and durable operation in the most demanding field conditions. Its track-driven design eliminates the need for expensive trackers or lowboy trailers for transport, helping to reduce both logistics complexity and operating costs. Key features include a 6,000-lb. lift capacity, 76 HP engine, ride-on digger functionality, and rugged rubber tracks. Crews benefit from a machine designed for long-term use and easy serviceability.
