Scissor Lift for Compact Maneuverability
The new micro-sized scissor lift is well suited for construction applications in space restricted or congested locations. <p></p><p> Responding to worldwide demand for compact maneuverability in low-level access and space and weight restricted applications, the new Genie® GS?-1330m scissor lift offers a maximum platform height of 12.8 ft (3.9 m) and a maximum working height of 18.8 ft (5.9 m), with a two-person, 500-lb (227 kg) capacity, and weighing in at only 1,950 lb (885 kg). Rental-ready, this new micro-sized scissor lift is well suited for construction applications in space restricted or congested locations, such as offices, high-rise and retail spaces, as well as facility maintenance tasks.</p><p>"Low-level access is a growing segment in the aerial access industry, with increasing pressure to replace ladders with safe, productive alternatives," says <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mike Flanagan, Genie Product Manager, Terex AWP.</span> </p><p> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Practical innovations</span><br />The Genie GS-1330m scissor lift is equipped with an efficient, all-electric DC drive system that offers productive power for getting around indoor jobsites with quiet, zero-emissions operation. Industry-leading runtime ensures full day productivity in a compact package. The Genie GS-1330m scissor lift enables operators to drive at full height, and is capable of climbing up to 25 per cent grade slopes in the stowed position for exceptional jobsite accessibility and transportability. </p><p>"Weighing less than 2,000 lb (907 kg), the Genie GS-1330m scissor lift is able to access jobsites previously off limits to heavier slab scissors and vertical mast lifts in the industry due to passenger elevator capacity limitations," says Flanagan. </p><p> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Maximising rROIC</span><br />"At Genie, we build high quality and productive machines that offer high rental return on invested capital (rROIC) to customers worldwide and meet regional and global standards," says Flanagan. </p><p> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Reliable design, productive operation</span><br />The Genie GS-1330m scissor lift incorporates the Genie Smart Link? control system, offering a familiar interface, as well as fully proportional lift and drive control for precise positioning in the work environment. </p><p> Designed with the operator in mind, the Genie GS-1330m scissor lift is equipped with side-by-side platform guardrails for easy deck extension and retraction. It is engineered with diamond plate platform flooring, which provides a durable, long-life gripping surface. And with the link stack centred under the platform, the operator is provided with a stable feel and optimal comfort while working at height.</p><p> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Service and support</span><br />"The new Genie GS-1330m scissor lift shares significant commonality with the Genie GS scissor lift family, including design features that enhance serviceability. For example, swing-out service trays allow for unobstructed access to all machine components, including the hydraulic and electrical systems, simplifying service and maintenance and ensuring machines can get back on rent, faster," concludes Flanagan. </p><p></p>
