The MPJ26-Li is the 26 m platform class lithium electric telescopic boom lift in the Hontylift MPJ series. The published working height is 28.8 m, the platform height is 26.3 m, and the maximum working radius is 21.5 m. The machine is 2.49 m wide, 11.7 m long when stowed, and weighs about 16,100 kg. The platform is rated 300 kg or 450 kg depending on the configuration.
The MPJ26-Li is the largest model in the MPJ range. It adds 2.6 m of working height and 1.5 m of working radius over the MPJ24-Li, at the cost of a longer 11.7 m stowed chassis and 1,300 kg more machine weight. The 21.5 m working radius is the longest in the range, and the 80 V lithium pack is the same as the 24-Li.
Why the MPJ26-Li exists
The 26 m platform class is the top of the MPJ range. The MPJ26-Li exists for high-rise construction, infrastructure and large industrial work where the platform needs 28.8 m working height and 21.5 m working radius. The 450 kg platform load and the lithium pack make it a production machine rather than a one-off access solution.
The 11.7 m stowed length is the route number. It is 1.4 m longer than the MPJ24-Li and the longest in the range. The 16,100 kg weight is 1,300 kg more than the MPJ24-Li. Check the transport bed, the site road and the floor before the reach. The 4 × 2 drive and 45% gradeability are shared with the smaller models.
When the 26-Li is the wrong machine
Do not choose the 26-Li if the work face needs less than 26.2 m working height or the site cannot take an 11.7 m stowed chassis and 16,100 kg. The 24-Li covers 26.2 m with a shorter 10.3 m chassis and 1,300 kg less weight. The 26-Li is the right choice only when the extra 2.6 m of working height or 1.5 m of outreach is needed.

Work-face planning
Working height is 28.8 m and platform height is 26.3 m, a 2.5 m difference. A work face at 25 m needs about 27.5 m of working height and leaves about 1.3 m of margin; a work face at 26.3 m is at the platform limit. The 21.5 m working radius is measured from the turntable.
The platform is rated 300 kg or 450 kg depending on the configuration. Confirm the final rating and the load chart at the required outreach. The 21.5 m radius is the reason to choose the 26-Li; it is also the reason to check the chart before taking the full load to full reach.

Performance and power: Stowed height 2.92 m, wheelbase 3.20 m, ground clearance 0.30 m, platform rotation ±80°, turntable 360° continuous, travel speed 0–5.2 km/h, gradeability 45%, outside turning radius 6.5 m, control voltage 12 VDC, pump motor 20 kW and drive motor 5.2 kW.
Site fit and transport
The route check is 2.49 m width, 11.7 m stowed length and 16,100 kg weight. The outside turning radius is 6.5 m, the ground clearance is 0.30 m and the stowed gradeability is 45%. The 11.7 m stowed length is the longest in the range; measure the ramp breakover, the tail swing and the transport bed.
For transport, confirm the low-bed or container envelope against the 11.7 m stowed length and 2.49 m width. The 16,100 kg weight is the axle and floor check. Confirm the charging plan for the 80 V lithium pack at the destination site.
Transport and lifting plan
The 26-Li needs a bed that can take 11.7 m stowed and 16,100 kg. The lithium pack is shipped with a partial charge; confirm the transport classification, the ramp angle and the charging plan at the destination before the machine leaves the factory.
Typical applications
Typical MPJ26-Li work includes high-rise construction, steel framework, facade and glazing, infrastructure bridges and ports, industrial plants, airports and stadiums. The 28.8 m working height and 21.5 m radius cover the largest envelope in the MPJ range.
The 11.7 m stowed chassis and 16,100 kg weight are the transport and floor constraints. The 80 V lithium pack supports a full shift, but the charging plan and the site power supply must be confirmed before the machine is scheduled.
Model selection
Choose the 26-Li when the work face needs 28.8 m working height or 21.5 m outreach, and the site can take an 11.7 m stowed chassis and 16,100 kg. It is the largest model in the range; the extra 2.6 m of working height and 1.5 m of outreach over the 24-Li are the reason to accept the longer chassis and the extra 1,300 kg.
Do not choose the 26-Li if the 24-Li already covers the work face. The 24-Li is 1.4 m shorter and 1,300 kg lighter, and it shares the same 80 V lithium pack and 450 kg platform. The 26-Li is a reach decision, not a default choice.
The 26-Li is the better choice when the work face is above 26.2 m or the outreach is above 20 m, and the bed can take 11.7 m.
Project checklist
Start with the 28.8 m working height and the 21.5 m outreach. If the work face is lower or closer, the 24-Li is the lighter machine. Then check the 11.7 m stowed length and the 16,100 kg weight. Finally, confirm the 80 V charging point and the tyre specification for the site surface.
Site scenarios
High-rise facade, 28 m work face, 20 m setback. The 26-Li covers the height with 28.8 m working height and the setback with 21.5 m radius. The 11.7 m stowed chassis needs a long low-bed.
Port or bridge project, 20 m horizontal reach. The 26-Li reaches the work face from the quay without a second setup. The 450 kg platform carries the inspection tools.
Site with a 12 m transport bed and a 17 t floor limit. The 26-Li fits; the 24-Li is the lighter fallback if the work face is within 26.2 m and 20 m.
Common specification mistakes
Three mistakes are common with the 26-Li. The first is to choose it when the 24-Li already covers the work face; the 26-Li is 1.4 m longer and 1,300 kg heavier. The second is to assume the 21.5 m radius is available at 450 kg; confirm the load chart. The third is to book an 11 m transport bed without allowing for the 11.7 m stowed length. The 26-Li is the only 80 V model with an 11.7 m stowed chassis and a 21.5 m working radius.
Options and accessories
The 26-Li is quoted with the 80 V / 460 Ah lithium pack, the 20 kW pump and the 5.2 kW drive. Because the 26-Li is the 11.7 m model, the transport and lifting plan is part of the option conversation: confirm the low-bed, the ramp and the charging point before the tyre and platform accessories.
Materials and main components
The 26-Li is built around a 21.5 m boom and an 11.7 m chassis. The platform is 0.90 × 2.40 m with ±80° rotation, the turntable turns 360° continuously, and the control panels are Bosch Rexroth. The 16,100 kg machine is the heaviest in the range, which is the first thing to check on a suspended floor. Ask for the lithium pack and hydraulic component list with the quotation.
Certifications and standards
EN 280 and GB/T 25852 are the standards published for the 26-Li. The CE / EN 280 / ISO 9001 documentation set is supplied for the destination market. Confirm the current certificate number, issuer and scope with the quotation before relying on any certification statement on this page.
Factory testing and pre-delivery inspection
The 26-Li is tested at full boom length, at both 300 kg and 450 kg, through the 21.5 m radius. The schedule covers boom extension and retraction, turntable and platform rotation, brake holding, emergency stop and descent, hydraulic leaks, electrical safety, lithium battery condition, weld inspection, guardrail and gate operation, and limit switches. The report is packed with the machine.
Delivery, packaging and installation
Because the 26-Li is 11.7 m stowed, the low-bed is booked before the production slot. A single unit is typically 15–25 working days; container orders 25–35 days. Export packing is a steel frame, moisture barrier and strapping, with a plywood case on request. The quotation states the Incoterm, port and payment terms.
Before dispatch, check the 11.7 m stowed length, 2.49 m width and 16,100 kg weight against the transport bed and the site route. The 26-Li needs a longer bed than the 24-Li; confirm the ramp breakover and the charging plan.
Warranty and after-sales support
Structural cover on the 26-Li runs for 36 months; the whole machine is covered for 12 months, including parts and labour on the hydraulic, electrical and drive systems. Wear parts and consumables are excluded. Claims are answered within one business day; Spare parts list and availability are confirmed with the quotation.
