75 feet of working height on German-engineered tracks. Designed for slopes, soft ground, and properties where the lawn has to stay intact.
Our second spider lift covers the jobs where access is tight and the ground underneath matters. The TEUPEN LEO 23GT is built by TEUPEN in Germany (now part of Altec), on low-ground-pressure tracks that can cross lawns, grounds, and sloped terrain without leaving ruts.

Low ground pressure
This is the spec that defines the TEUPEN’s job profile. Most aerial lifts leave visible damage on lawn — tracks, ruts, compression marks. The LEO 23GT distributes weight across its crawler tracks with a ground pressure low enough to cross finished lawn, stone patios, pavers, and sports turf without leaving evidence.
For properties where the landscaping is part of the reason you bought the house, this matters. We don’t want to remove your tree and leave a quarter acre of tire damage behind.
Slope and soft-ground capability
Wheeled equipment stops where the slope gets steep or the ground gets soft. The TEUPEN’s tracks keep going. We’ve used it on:
- Sloped backyards near Nittany Valley
- Hillside properties along the Route 322 corridor
- Soft-ground jobs during wet spring weeks
- Storm cleanup where the access road is compromised
359° rotation and internal hose routing
The main boom rotates continuously — 359°, not just a back-and-forth arc. That means we can position the basket to any angle without having to reposition the base. Internal hose routing keeps cables and hydraulic lines inside the boom, out of the weather and away from branches that might catch an external hose.
When we bring the TEUPEN
- Steep-slope tree work where wheeled equipment can’t safely set up
- Properties with sensitive landscaping, finished stone, or turf we can’t tear up
- Soft-ground conditions during spring and after rain
- Utility right-of-way work with uneven terrain
