The only one-person, cheap boom lift that swings the cage back and forth. Designed and built in Oliver for orchard use but also works great in the hop yard for tying strings or cutting down at harvest time. For a YouTube video of me tying strings on the hop trellis at 16', type "Girette". For photos of the Girette in use harvesting hops, see Facebook - Hope Bay Hop Farm. Totally rebuilt brakes: new hoses, wheel cylinders, shoes, master cylinders, drums. Replaced original dual wheels with off road tires on thinner rims for use between rows in the hop yard; wheel base is 70". Comes with the original dual wheels for use in orchards. The 12 hp Kohler has good compression with rebuilt carburetor, new plugs, points, condenser and wiring; new coil; new fuel pump; new fuel tank; new throttle cable operated from the bucket. Has hydraulic lines to the bucket for cutting tools. The pivot support tended to be a weak point and often cracked. A previous owner reinforced the area so there are no cracks anywhere. Still has the original badge - built by Trump! Come to Pender Island to have a look and try it out.
