Mast-climbing platform, Manlift, Aerial lift equipment

Explanation:
I am assuming that you are looking for something specific. The terminology that you are translating is very general, but I thought it might help if I put a picture to each term.

Mast-climing platform:

Manlift:
http://www.manlift.com/

Aerial lift equipment:

Take a look at these pages, and get back to me if you still need further examples or if you do not find what you are looking for.

Hope this helps.

Crawler Crane

Explanation:
Construction vehicles used to do work at high altitudes are categorized as "cranes." There are many different types, or subcategories of cranes (mooring winches, accomodation modules, ship cranes, etc.). Since this particular crane moves on wheels (ends with 車), its official name is "crawler crane." Check out www.cranes.com for more details. がんばって！

a cherry picker

Explanation:
It's me again. I looked up in a Webster too. It says, "Any of several types of crane with a large bucket at the end of an articulated arm and mounted on a truck."
