Full-sized performance in a compact, lightweight footprint along with a low total cost of ownership make the new Genie GS-1432m and 1932m micro scissor lifts versatile options for nearly any work-at-height application up to 19 feet. Powering the new micro scissors is the same brushless, fully-sealed and maintenance-free AC electric drive motors as the Genie E-Drive slab scissor lifts introduced last November, which deliver industry-leading efficiency and a 35 percent reduction in lifetime maintenance costs. Ideal for applications including industrial and manufacturing maintenance, commercial construction, warehousing and data centers, the new Genie micro scissors also offer real-world 25 percent gradeability and powerful traction for loading and unloading. The GS-1432m weighs less than 2,000 pounds, which is 30 percent lighter than comparable standard-sized scissor lifts and is rated for both indoor and outdoor use. Field test data shows that, 95 percent of the time, operators using a 19-foot scissor lift stay below 15 feet. With a maximum indoor and outdoor platform height of  14 feet, one inch, the GS-1432m is tall enough to meet the needs of the majority of applications currently using a 19-foot scissor lift and is also lightweight enough to operate in jobsites previously only accessible by vertical mast lifts, simplifying fleet management and improving rental utilization. The GS-1932m measures 32 inches wide by  four feet, seven inches long and is only 79 inches tall when stowed. With an indoor platform height of 18 feett, two inches and an outdoor platform height of 17 feet, a full-width platform size and a weight of just 2,600 pounds, the GS-1932m is well suited for all 19-foot scissor tasks and is lightweight enough to access jobsites that are out of reach for traditional 19-foot scissors. With a 500-pound capacity, the new micro scissors are rated for two workers and feature a 32-inch-wide platform and two-foot extension deck, ensuring good access to work locations. Additionally, with a stowed height of less than 6.5 feet, both new micro scissors are able to drive through a doorway with standard fixed guardrails, improving jobsite productivity. 

DRIVE AT FULL HEIGHT

JLG now offers its new generation of rough-terrain (RT) and electric rough-terrain (ERT) scissor lifts in 40-foot and 47-foot models. The new 4069 and 4769 RT/ERT scissor lifts feature expanded platform sizes and an 800-pound capacity to carry more to height, as well as full drive at height capability. The RT4769 and ERT4769 provide users with access to five-story heights. The platforms on the new JLG RT and ERT models are designed to get users closer to the work area while allowing them to bring more people, tools and material to height. These models deliver 28 percent more working area and a zero-platform offset. This feature minimizes the distance users have to reach to access work on buildings or other structures. The new rough terrain units can be driven fully elevated, both indoors and out, for greater productivity and efficiency. This allows these lifts to operate along the length of a building at a fixed height, resulting in fewer trips up and down throughout the day. The RT models are available in both two-wheel and four-wheel-drive configurations, while the ERT models are available in two-wheel-drive. The new platform control box with an LCD display on these lifts incorporates new technology that focuses on integrating data that allows operators to better understand the machine’s performance and capabilities. For example, it is able to provide users a multitude of productivity, terrain, machine health and safety notifications during use. It also includes JLG’s exclusive LiftSense technology, an evolution of variable tilt, which shows the users the maximum height they can achieve, before they elevate, based on side-to-side and front-to-back tilt and weight in the platform. The new 4069 and 4769 RT/ERT scissor lifts come in either diesel/dual fuel engine models with hydrostatic drive (RT) or battery-powered, AC electric drive models (ERT). The ERT models feature regenerative braking, which actively recharges the batteries during machine use. All JLG RT and ERT models come with rails that fold with ease. They can also be collapsed in three minutes or less, to allow operators to manoeuvre the machine in and through tight spaces. All of these new rough terrain scissor lifts are ANSI A92.20/CSA B354 compliant, featuring a load sensing system that can be calibrated without weight.
