SCISSORS LIFTS General Features

A scissor lift is a type of aerial work platform that is commonly used to provide temporary access to elevated areas. It uses a crisscrossing (scissor-like) mechanism to raise the platform vertically. These lifts are often used in construction, maintenance, and warehouse settings, where access to higher levels is needed.

Here is a common specification chart for a scissor lift:

Types of Scissor Lifts

1. Electric Scissor Lifts:

  • Best for indoor applications with smooth, flat surfaces.
  • Low emissions and quieter operation, making them ideal for use in warehouses, factories, and retail spaces.

2. Rough Terrain Scissor Lifts

  • Designed for outdoor use, these lifts have large, pneumatic tires and increased ground clearance to navigate rough terrain.
  • Commonly used in construction sites and outdoor maintenance tasks.

3. Hybrid Scissor Lifts

  • Combines electric and diesel power sources, providing flexibility for both indoor and outdoor operations.

Key Benefits of Scissor Lifts:

  • Vertical Reach: Ideal for reaching high areas such as shelving, ceilings, and outdoor equipment.
  • Platform Stability: Provides a large, stable platform for operators to work from, reducing the risk of accidents when working at height.
  • Easy to Operate: The controls are typically straightforward, and the lift offers good maneuverability in tight spaces.
  • Indoor and Outdoor Use: Scissor lifts are available in both electric (indoor) and diesel (outdoor) versions, as well as hybrid versions.
  • Space-Saving: When not in use, scissor lifts have a low profile, making them easy to store in tight spaces.

Reach new heights safely and reliably.
