YES, there is trailer option available.

The X-Cone can be operated with the most common types of traffic cones.
However, it is important that the height of traffic cone is 750mm (+/- 10%). Depending on the cone design the total capacity can vary.
Generally speaking, the heavier the traffic cone, the better the machine can work.

Traffic cones are always deployed and collected at the same location, either on the right or left hand side of the vehicle.

The X-Cone machine can be operated by one person (driver).

X-Cone can be installed on any vehicles that meet the following criteria:

  • Loading area without tail lifts
  • Dimension of the loading area min. 3.500 x 2.080 mm (LxW)
  • Available payload min. 1.800 kg *
  • Height of the loading area max.960mm from the road surface (vehicle unloaded)

Every single X-Cone machine is installed by our team. For each machine our engineers will do the initial setup and put the machine into operation together with the user.
For this procedure we plan at least 2 days.

YES, the X-Cone can also be installed by the customer as well as specialized companies. Nevertheless, we always recommend personal training by our experts on site.
