Scissor Lifts
Scissor lifts are made of an assembly of crossed tubes which work in a scissor-like manner to raise and lower a platform. Commonly utilized on level, firm surfaces, these lifts provide access to high areas directly over the lift. Scissor lifts are valued for their big decks and their heavy lifting capacities that enable the operator to transport heavy and huge tools and supplies. A platform deck extension slides or rolls out to provide a spacious work area.
Scissor lifts range in size from .76 meters-2.29 meters in width and 6.57-18.15 meters in height. Wider lifts normally have larger deck areas, as well as greater extension capability and lift capacity. The model numbers of the manufacturer could be utilized to identify the width of the machine and platform height.

They have four-wheel drive with large platforms, efficient lift speed and positive traction control. They are commonly utilized for installation, construction and maintenance.

They allow maximum workspace for more employees and larger loads. Their hard-rubber tires and high steering angles guarantee excellent maneuverability. Electric scissor lifts are often utilized in indoor applications related to electrical works, air conditioning and ventilation.
