<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Like all heavy equipment, scissor lifts require periodic maintenance and inspections to ensure equipment is running efficiently, helping operators maintain productivity. Scissor lifts should be inspected before use every day, at shift changes, and any time a new operator takes over the machine. A machine’s typical working environment also has an impact on how often it should be inspected</span></div>

</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Inspections are the most significant element of maintaining a scissor lift. Inspections should occur more frequently if operators are using their </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">scissor lift</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> over multiple shifts every day, or if they are using them in a hostile environment, like those where welding or sandblasting are occurring. Making sure a scissor lift is in excellent working condition before running it will make it greatly less likely to test any sort of problem or failure</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scaffolding is a temporary structure used to help operators and support materials and help in construction, maintenance, and repair of buildings, bridges and any different types of constructions. Scaffolds are generally used on-site to get access to heights and areas that would be otherwise hard to get to.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scaffolding is also used in adaptive structures for formwork and shoring, grandstand places, concert stages, exhibition stands, ski ramps, half pipes, and design projects. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Unsafe scaffolding has the possibility to end in death or dangerous injury.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Working at height requires a clear focus on safety. This begins with having the best equipment for keeping workers safe on the job. For years, scaffolding was the safest Structure to work overground. But since the invention of scissors and different aerial lifts, scaffolding has taken a back position when it comes to worker safety.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scaffolding is still generally used in painting, window washing, building servicing, and other applications. And people will still discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But the truth that scissor lifts make it safer to work at heights up to 60 feet.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<b><span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Here are six smart reasons to prefer scissor lifts over scaffolding.</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: red; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;">Greater access</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In the earliest days of aerial lifts, scissor lifts had limited activity compared to scaffolding. Those days, they can be used in everywhere scaffolding can. New characteristics like all-terrain wheels, self-leveling, and scissor lifts on tracks enable them to work in places they previously could not go.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: red; font-size: large; font-weight: bold;">Safer for workers</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scaffolding and ladders are dangerous to work on. Their bases aren’t as stable as scissor lifts, which can use outriggers for more stability. They don’t provide as much grip in wet or bad weather. They don’t come with the large siding that scissor lifts offer. And they usually need more supervisors staff to observe safety.</span><br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Outdoor over-ground worksites are often in the middle of pedestrian traffic. Using a scissor lift can make it easier for people to move safely in the work place. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Many scissor lifts take up less area than scaffolding. There’s less danger of dropping items. Also, the lifts can be taken down and moved much quicker, which decreases the amount of time they interfere with foot traffic. These are just remarkable reasons why modern equipment is better.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Working on all sides of a building requires disassembling and re-erecting the scaffolding. You could use several scaffolds, but you would still have the same amount of setup time. It would also require more workers, which would raise labor costs. Scissor lifts can be lowered and moved to different locations in just minutes. The end result is decreased labor time and more productivity.</span><br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Before we discuss safety, first we should know which tools were used before the invention of scissor lifts; step ladders and scaffolding. However, those old fixtures could not provide enough support and reliability after a specific height and those who work with scaffolds and ladders should make an extra effort to build these towers accordingly safety standards and If they ignore to implement these measures, sadly, they will risk their lives as well as others, on the other hand, scissor lifts provide a strong and stable foundation for workers to do their professional jobs when used according to manufacturer’s instructions.</span><br />

<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">The Dangers of Scaffolding</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you continue to prefer scaffolding over scissor lift, take into account the following:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Increased risk of falls</span> </b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">OSHA mandates the use of fall protection when working at 10 feet or higher. However, when using scaffolding, contractors often insist on fall protection beginning at six feet. This is due to the bigger risk of falls. Weather conditions and a lack of focus on safety plans often cause falls. Incorrect access to scaffolding can also cause them.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Scaffold collapse</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When scaffolds aren’t erected perfectly, it can cause the platform to collapse or result in falling objects. Proper setup must take several factors into account, such as the weight the scaffold will keep and foundation stability. Other factors include the position of scaffold planks and distance from the scaffold to the workspace. A proper scaffold setup requires a highly-trained person who knows how to erect, disassemble and move a scaffold.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
</div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Incorrect planking</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When setting up a scaffold, all planks must be fixed and tightly secured. Otherwise, they can slip off and cause a serious injury. Falling planks can also harm people below. Planking accidents can also happen from overloading and using the incorrect grade of lumber. Too little or too much overhang can make planks to tip and lead to a fall.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Failure to inspect</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To ensure compliance guidance, OSHA requires all scaffolding to be examined on a regular basis. Reviews should be done by workers trained in scaffolding set up, disassembling, and maintenance.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Ladders are very good at getting up to or down from scaffolds and elevated platforms. However, they mustn't be used to perform any work at a very high level, the risks of falling and having very critical injuries increase dramatically </span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Enter scissor lifts and boom lifts convenient platforms that give our staff a lot of stable, safer surface from which they can work. Scissor lifts have built-in fall protection from the guard rails that are a part of the operating platform. The rails Protect staff from falling over the edge as long as they're used properly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Employees who are properly trained are less probably to engage in unsafe work practices, like climb over the rails, or standing on them while they work.</span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The problem with ladders</b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There will always be a time and place for ladders and when set up and used correctly, they can be a great tool for getting high-reach work done. However, setup and usage are where the problems with ladders arise, and the result of not following proper guidelines can lead to injuries and costs.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">According to a Bureau of Labor Statistics research of 1,400 ladder accidents, 66 percent who were injured had not been practiced on how to inspect and set up the ladder. It’s evident the idea that ladders are convenient and show up to the job site ready to go is a myth, which is why they should be considered last for any job. There is, however, equipment that does show up to the job site ready — low-level scissor lifts; and users get more than enhanced safety.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Low-level scissor lifts allow workers to reach working heights of about 6 meters, which accounts for about 90 percent of high-reach work. While many think a lift’s overall size is a setback, low-level units are compact and in some cases take up less space than a ladder. For instance, the legs of a 3.5-meter stepladder spread nearly 2 meters apart, which means the ladder consumes about 1.8 square meters of floor space. A low-level lift with a 3-meter platform, however, takes up just 70 square centimeters of space. Both offer the same working heights, yet the scissor lift has a 58 percent smaller footprint.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A ladder may be fairly simple to move by folding it up, but the taller it gets, the more cumbersome moving it becomes. Not only do ladders get heavier as they get taller, but those taller heights also make it challenging to get around corners and into tight spaces. Low-level lifts, on the other hand, take lifting and heavy maneuvering out of the comparison. Workers can easily lower the units down to an overall height as low as 1.6 meters, and if it’s a self-propelled lift, use the controls on the platform to navigate to the next area.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Low-level scissor lifts will never compete with ladders’ light-weight, however, a number of the lightest scissor lift models can be used on tile, laminate and raised floors without the danger of injury.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Ladders Don’t Size Up</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Low-level scissor lifts enable operators to reach up to 20-foot working heights, which estimates for about 90 percent of high-reach work. While many think a lift’s overall size is a setback, low-level units are quite compact and in some cases take up less space than a ladder. For instance, the legs of a 12-foot stepladder reached nearly 80 inches apart, which means the ladder consumes about 19.43 square feet of floor space.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A low-level lift with a 10-foot platform, however, takes up just 8.24 square feet of space. Both offer 16-foot working heights, yet the scissor lift has a 58 percent smaller footprint, enabling it to be used in more confined areas.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But what about when it comes to navigating through doorways, around tight corners or throughout confined areas? A ladder may be fairly simple to move by collapsing it or folding it up, but the taller it gets, the more cumbersome moving it becomes. Not only do ladders get heavier as they get taller, but those taller heights also make it challenging to get around corners and into tight spaces.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Low-level lifts, on the other hand, take lifting and awkward maneuvering out of the comparison. Workers can simply lower the units down to an overall height as low as 63.6 inches, and if it’s a self-propelled lift, use the controls on the platform to navigate to the next area.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In addition, a zero-turn radius feature on some lifts, coupled with widths as narrow as 27.6 inches, means moving easily around 32-inch doorways and down hallways is hassle-free. A lift also decreases the risk of stress connected with lugging around a large ladder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Low-level scissor lifts can never fight with ladders’ lightweight, but some of the lightest scissor lift models can be used on tile, laminate and raised floors without the risk of damage. Some push-around units weigh just 575 pounds and have wheel loads as low as 115 psi. Some self-propelled models are more impressive yet, with dual front wheels that permit them to achieve wheel loads as light as 62.7 psi.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We’ve proven low-level scissor lifts can get into nearly all the same areas as ladders. But the impact these small machines can have on worker safety are much larger than their small stature</span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Rise above risk</b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">High-reach work comes with challenges, and when using a ladder to perform that work, those challenges become compounded and can test the human body. For example, HVAC and plumbing technicians installing pipes and ductwork overhead need ample materials and tools as the job progresses. When they've completed one section, they need to step down, move the ladder, grab a lot of materials and climb duplicate. This not only is inefficient, but the repetitive climbing can cause injuries to knees and hips, and standing on the rungs for long periods can lead to painful plantar fasciitis. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In addition, once operators are on the ladder their lateral reach is limited, restricting how much activity they can finish in one place. As a result, several people are tempted to overreach and risk the ladder toppling over.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">These reasons are why odd ladder usage continues to make OSHA’s Top 10 most cited violations, year after year. In fact, according to the last study provided by the Center for Disease Control, 81 percent of all fall injuries among construction workers in 2011 involved a ladder.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lifts can hold as much as 340kg and give as much as 1.5 square meters of platform space, including their extensions. That’s alots of capacity for ample materials and supplies. Also, loading scissor lift with those equipments is much easier and less taxing on the body. And because operators can load the lift with more materials, they make fewer trips up and down, which improves productivity. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In addition, some models feature integrated pipe racks, that provide installers a place to rest longer materials.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> These types of features help boost efficiency while maintaining safety.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Don’t Pay the Price</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Most would agree a low-level lift is substantially safer and more efficient than a ladder, but there is still one problem — accessibility to a low-level scissor lift. If a lift isn’t available on the job site, an employee isn’t likely to ask for it and wait around for it to show up. They will instead move ahead with what they have, which is often a stepladder; and just like that the risk of injuries from a fall on the job skyrockets.<span id="goog_826737103"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a><span id="goog_826737104"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It’s not just injuries owners need to worry about, though. Those falls aren’t cheap. Just one worker’s compensation claim can require tens of thousands of dollars, which is just a fraction of the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s estimated $24 billion in annual payments associated with ladder injuries.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, owners are responsible for giving employees with a safe workplace. Making safer equipment, such as low-level scissor lifts, available to workers is just one element of the equation, however. Employers must also train employees on when and where to use that material and to understand that ladders should constantly be considered last. If a scissor lift can get in the area, it should always be used in place of a ladder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In fact, many contractors who obviously understand the hazards and associated expense of ladders simply do not permit them on the job site unless absolutely needed and with specific protocols enforced.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Aside from minimizing injuries and worker’s compensation costs, there is one more benefit to offering low-level lifts not many talks about employee retention. The workforce is a different landscape than it was 30 years ago and keeping employees is harder than ever. The younger workforce simply doesn’t want to put their bodies through the day-to-day physical demands of construction work, and those who have been in the industry for years take a bit longer to recover from those tasks.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Providing all workers, whether 25 or 55, with equipment that permits them to do their works safely and efficiently, not only reduces their risk of injuries but also demonstrates that employers value their workers and the time they give to their jobs. The benefits of that are twofold — workers get a safe worksite and are commonly happier while employers get more productive employees.</span><br />

<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red; font-size: large;"><br /><span style="color: blue;">Why we prefer scissor lift over ladder?</span></span></b></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">even though we are biased, and feel that access equipment such as scissor lifts and boom lifts are usually the safest and most productive method of working at height, we will admit that sometimes a ladder may be appropriate.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div>
<br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Ladders:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Sure ladders have their place; the ladder has had uses in home repair, file retrieval, and many other quick fixes for reaching something at heights. That being aforementioned, however, ladders can’t be used for everything.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The tallest ladders that individuals have in their homes usually reach 15-20 feet. Taller ladders normally belong to construction companies. Many people try to jury-rig an extension for their ladders, which leads to extremely unsafe working conditions.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Before you never use a ladder again we can assure you that ladders do comply with OHS requirements and for some jobs can be the most appropriate form of getting the job done at heights, however, ladders can only carry a certain weight which does limit the supplies that can be carried whilst working at heights.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: red;">Access Equipment:</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For anything a ladder can’t reach, or is just too awkward to work from you must use a scissor lift or maybe a boom lift. You don’t have to worry about falling off your ladder, which creates a much safer and more productive work site. Scissor lifts can reach higher places, and boom lifts allow the operator to work at an angle or higher than a ground obstruction.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Here are five reasons to choose scissor lifts over ladders</b></span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<b><span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">OPERATOR SAFETY</span></b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Scissor lifts are safer than ladders as they’re equipped with safety apparatus to protect operators from workplace accidents, falls, injuries and fatalities. The entire scissor lift work platform is protected by railings with a gated area, used by operators to mount and dismount the lift. Operators are required to wear safety harnesses above 2.4 meters.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> These harnesses can simply be clipped onto scissor lift railings for fall protection.</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>LIFT HEIGHT & CAPACITY</b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Scissor lifts are available in different lift heights and capacities. several scissor lift platforms can simply contain 2 to 4 people and range anywhere between 2 to 18 meters lift height. Operators also have the option to pause the lift at different heights to work seamlessly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: red;"><br />PLATFORM SIZE</span></b><br />Scissor lifts are favorable over a ladder with large platform space. A larger platform area means more than one worker can simply be accommodated along with the material. Operators also avoid wasting time by covering a wide wall or ceiling section without having to reposition the scissor lift; something a ladder can’t give.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />
</span><span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br />STORAGE, ADAPTABILITY & OPERATION</b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Scissor lifts can be easily stored in small worksite areas. Businesses can also save a lot of time and manual labor, directly proportional to the production rise. A scissor lift is an essential tool for manufacturing and stocking industries and it adds to the flexible functionality with its adaptability to different terrains.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <br /><span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>ELECTRIC OPTIONS</b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Electric scissor lifts don’t emit fumes and are perfect for indoor use. A scissor lift with a narrow work platform is another choice for tight indoor spaces. Electric options are extremely quieter than engine-powered scissor lifts and most indoor lifts come with non-marking tires to prevent floor damage.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Why You Must Use an Aerial Lift Vs Ladder?</b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Ladders and scaffolds are old tools that are used for working at heights for several years. Modern advancements and increased mechanical demands have pushed the Markert for what these tools can do safely, and have brought mechanical aerial lifts to the market. There are such a large amount of reasons to prefer aerial lifts vs. ladders for a large array of raised jobs, with two of the main points being increased safety and capabilities.</span><br />

<br /></div>
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Aerial Lifts Are designed for Stability and Holding Weight</b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Aerial lifts are made up of metal or reinforced fiberglass and feature a sturdy base that carries the load of the extendable boom arm or platform with strength and durability. Workers don't depend upon their own positioning skills to make sure the safety of an aerial lift, nor can their weight alone risk the stability of the lift.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While it's necessary for aerial lift operators to stay in mind weight limitations, it’s even a lot of imperative for work on ladders, which can buckle at the slightest weight overload. Industrial ladders will hold up to three hundred pounds while several aerial lifts will hold the maximum amount as 1,000 pounds safely. Aerial lifts are created for withstanding a load of staff as well as their instrumentation and tools.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /><b style="color: red;">Aerial Lifts Are a lot of Mobile Than Ladders</b><br />Workers on ladders have to be compelled to perpetually climb up, down, disassemble and reassemble once moving with progressing work. The constant movement can cause operator fatigue and increase the danger of falls and severe injuries. Aerial lifts vs. ladders can lower to almost ground level for employees to tread on the platform, raise and lower with the push of a button and can move around a worksite without requiring the operator to get in and out perpetually.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Aerial Lifts Can Accommodate Fall Protection Equipment</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Even though ladders do not require fall protection equipment, falls are a very real hazard when working on them at heights, especially on ladders as tall as 40 feet. With aerial lifts, body harnesses and lanyards are required and are simply connected to access points on the lift platform to protect employees from falling and significantly reduce the number of injuries and fatalities on worksites</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span> <span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Aerial Lifts Provide More Flexibility Than Ladders</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When comparing aerial lifts vs. ladders, lifts are much more flexible when it involves positioning for reaching heights. Aerial lifts can be placed directly beneath or within the most optimum position for accessing the work area and can be raised to the exact operating height required. Ladders are trickier. Using too short of a ladder will tempt employees to stand on the highest rungs or overstretch to reach the workspace. A ladder that is too tall may be set up against a wall and can slip out from underneath the worker</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>scissor lifts</b> provide a safe, efficient, and reliable platform for your employees working at heights. When not used properly, your employees are at risk of serious injury and even death.</span></div>
</div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Many scissor lift injuries have occurred as a result of staff <b>cut corners</b> in hopes of saving time. Some examples include mounting on the rails that surround the platform, standing on ladders or buckets to gain additional height, and by relocating the lift before lowering it so workers can exit.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>What your employees need to know</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">All work must be performed standing with each foot firmly on the platform.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Workers mustn't stand on the guardrails and work must be kept within simple reach to avoid any leaning far away from the lift.</span></div>
<div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><b>Buckets, step stools, or ladders should NEVER be utilized in a scissor lift as the simplest way to gain additional height to reach work surfaces</b></span></blockquote>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scissor lifts must be placed in areas wherever, even if fully extended, they will not come into contact with energized power lines.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">(Minimum of 10 feet away from power lines).</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Weather conditions are also a factor. Do not use a scissor lift unless wind speeds are below twenty-eight miles per hour.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b style="color: blue; font-family: verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">What your employees need to do</b></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Before work begins, make sure the weather conditions are appropriate. The lift should be parked on the stable ground, free from any potential hazards such as holes, slopes, bumps, or debris.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Then, inspect the lift to make sure the guardrails are securely in place and there's no damage to the platform or the other part of the unit.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b style="color: blue; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">While on the job, take these additional steps:</b></div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To avoid leaning over the guardrails, move the entire lift to create a safer and more comfortable working position.</span></span><div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Never move the lift when extended or if individuals are on the platform. Lower the platform first so those working on the platform could exit before it’s moved.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
</li>
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To avoid standing on buckets or ladders, have the operator extend the lift so you can reach higher spots.</span></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If the lift cannot reach any part of the work area or gets too close to power lines, postpone the work until a safer method can be identified. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">(For example, a longer lift may be needed or the power company might have to temporarily de-energize the lines).</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
</span></div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Never exceed the weight limit of the platform identified in the manufacturer’s manual.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
Provide correct control if the lift is operating near a street, to avoid a collision that may throw workers from the lift.</div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>1. Always, and we mean always, wear your safety harness</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We can’t believe how many times we see a scissor lift operator not wearing a security harness. Whether you’re using a 19, 26, 32 or 40-foot scissor, a fall from any of these heights will cause severe injury and even death. Why take the chance when a simple and inexpensive safety harness can offer you the peace of mind of knowing that you're being as safe as possible.</span><br />

<b style="color: red; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">2. never use a scissor lift for any task it wasn't supposed to perform</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">scissor lift accident disasters if you’re using a scissor lift in a manner it was not intended to be used for – you’re probably risking an accident and injury. Most accidents and injuries are easily preventable by simply using common sense. If it’s a windy day and you’re working around power lines, why take the chance? If you would like to move the scissor lift a distance over rough or rocky terrain, why not walk it there rather than moving the unit while aboard the lift? You may think you’re saving time by taking shortcuts but in re</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">ality, you are risking more downtime and injury by not working intelligently.</span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>3. never use a scissor lift you see to be unsafe and unfit for the work at hand</b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Before attempting to utilize any aerial work platform, whether you own one or you intend to rent a scissor lift, make sure you do a full walk-around inspection prior to each use. Some things you should be checking for are leaks in the hydraulic hoses and fittings, gouges or excessive wear in the tires, poor or loose battery wiring, a properly working control box especially the protection stop button, as well as the various steering and braking components. Never move forward unless you're absolutely satisfied that you simply have a good operating unit with no safety issues. You could save yourself from a trip to the E.R.</span><br />

<br /></div>
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>4. Always familiarize yourself with the operators and owners manual</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Genie scissor lift workers manual read the operators manual, plain and simple! They put in a central location where it can easily be seen for a reason – it’s extremely important. You'd much rather learn the way to work the scissor lift directly from the manufacturer than from somebody on the job-site claiming to be an associate expert? Make sure to abide by its rules and suggestions, ie. Do not use planks, ladders, scaffolding or any other device on the platform to extend your reach, always keep both feet on the platform floor while working and travelling with the scissor lift, and keep platform, steps, and shoes free from oil, mud, grease and different slippery substances, etc. etc.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>5. Respect the manufacturer’s specifications</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The manufacturer has tested, re-tested and tested again the machine specifications during initial R&D, during the manufacturing process and then extensively after the lift has left the factory. If they state the maximum number of operators allowed are two then abide by their specifications. If the maximum platform capacity is 550 lbs, make sure you do not exceed this weight. If the unit was supposed to carry 600 lbs, the manufacturer would list the platform capability as such and not 550lbs.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Scissor lifts are typical mobile elevating work platforms Their basic purpose is to</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> elevate workers, tools, and stuff to the needed working height besides helping the operator to manage the movement and position of the lift.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">scissor lift helps to reduce the psychological stress and physical requirements of a worker at an elevated height. Therefore, if a scissor lift is perfectly designed, manufactured, maintained, and properly used, it will increase not only the operators’ productivity but also their safety. For these reasons, scissor lifts with completely different capacities and elevating heights are more and more used at many workplaces. Unfortunately, fatal and non-fatal incidents have additionally occurred throughout scissor lift operations. <br />Many of these incidents were related to lift tip-over and/or operators falling within or from the platform or using it on a slope.<br /><span style="color: red;"><b>Without taking into account some instructions</b></span> </span><br />

The maximum slope on which your lift can be moved or elevated is specific to each machine. The safe working angle will be defined on the manufacturer’s identification plate fitted to the lift or marked by a decal in the platform. You’ll also see the maximum slope or safe operating angle in the operators manual. The specified safe working angle or maximum slope must not ever be exceeded. We cannot exceed that Scissor lifts must be run on the firm level ground only unless the manufacturer’s ID plate, decals, and operators manual state otherwise.</span><b><i><span style="color: red;"><br />make sure to checkup before operating the lift on any slopes</span></i></b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;"><i>.</i></span></span></div>

<b style="color: black;">• </b>OUTRIGGERS AND SLOPES</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Man lifts with outriggers will work slightly differently on inclines. The outriggers enable the machine to be leveled on rough ground. For the level to be assessed, the lift should be fitted with either a circular spirit level or front-to-rear and side-to-side spirit levels. If there's insufficient travel on the outriggers to enable the machine to be leveled then appropriate packing (shoring or cribbing) material may be used, with approval from the manufacturer, to level the lift.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For mobile elevating working platforms (MEWPs), the ground slope is the main contributor to machine stability and, ultimately, the operator’s safety.

<div>
</div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This may happen when a scissor lift is being used on a slight slope, or when two of the four wheels are on an elevated surface such as a raised sidewalk. Operators will need to understand the equipment that they need for each specific application, as several jobs may need <b><span style="color: blue;">ground cribbing</span></b> to be used or even a larger boom lift with a higher outreach from chassis to the platform.</span><br />

The peak load capacity includes the weight of the operator and every tools, materials, and equipment that's on the platform. The manufacturer load chart details the load capacities for any lift, and it's the employer’s responsibility to make sure that all workers can read and understand the load chart. Operators should never use visual signs of tipping as indicators of the lift capacity.</span></span></li>

It’s also necessary to use wheel chocks and brakes whenever operating on a slope, and the following: operators must realize the type and proper usage of the stabilizing mechanisms of the definite lift; must not move or modify the mechanisms with a high platform, and should maintain the intended center of gravity to stabilize the lift by dispersing loads on the platform perfectly. Workers must also avoid horizontal work tasks that may cause too great of force and cause the platform to swing and become unstable.</span></span></li>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />To drive the scissor lift through a doorway you need to confirm that the height and width of the doorway are sufficient to allow the scissor lift to pass through, then position the scissor lift to allow future motion through the doorway, to be in a forward direction, then disconnect and remove platform control unit from the platform. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">On base control unit, pull out emergency stop button, select (base-off-platform) key switch to platform position. On platform control unit, pull out emergency stop button, select (lift-off-drive) switch to drive position. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Beware of driving the scissor lift toward yourself. Using as low speed as possible with your position behind the scissor lift, drive forward through the doorway.<br /><br />After reaching the desired location, take platform control unit and return it to the platform. And note that this operation is more suitable for level ground.<br /><br /><b>Fold the guardrails if necessary.</b> After finishing, return guardrails to the upright position and check the guardrail system for loose or missing locking pins. The guardrail system should be upright and all nails must be locked in place. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Death or dangerous injury could happen if the guardrail system is not upright or properly locked.<br /><br />Once the platform control unit is securely reconnected and guardrails up, normal operation may continue.</span><br />

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">How to Fold Guardrail System ?!</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Guardrail system, when folded down, reduces the height of the platform of the scissor lift for transporting and traveling through doorways.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Be careful, lowering guardrail will create a fall hazard so, be careful of the side of the platform guardrails to avoid falling.<br /><br />At first, you should recognize the </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Guardrail Locking Pin with Lanyard.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This pin is used to lock the guardrail in place. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The scissor machine must be completely lowered before raising or lowering the guardrails. Before operating your scissor lift, check the guardrail system for loose or missing locking pins.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /><b>To fold the guardrail system down</b>, ensure that the scissor lift is on level ground, the emergency stop button is pressed and extension platform is fully retracted.<br /><br />Use the ladder of the scissor lift to access platform, close the gate, remove the platform control console and lay it down on the platform.<br /><br />Remove left and right side pins, Remove remaining pins from all sides and carefully fold all guardrails.<br /><br /><b>To raise the guardrail system up</b>, ensure that the scissor lift is on level ground, the emergency stop button is pressed and extension platform is fully retracted.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Separate locking pin from mounting post and carefully raise extension guardrail up and lock into position with locking pins ensuring that the detent ball of each pin is all the way through then Mount the platform control console at the front right of the platform.</span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Loading and Unloading</span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Be sure vehicle capacity and loading equipment hoists, chains, straps, etc., are sufficient to withstand the maximum weight of the platform. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is important to remember that the load should be evenly distributed on the platform. The load should be placed near the center of the platform as possible as you can.</span><br />

<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> hard-to-reach places at different heights without having to erect a scaffold. Using one of these equipment is very important to many construction projects.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Choosing the right scissor lift you'll use isn’t that easy, </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">especially if you haven't rented any scissor lift for your job before</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. You need to consider some issues like height, load capacity and type of terrain. If your choice is poor, then your scissor lift may not satisfy your needs. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Fortunately, you can get a pretty good idea of how to choose your lift by taking a closer look at the job site and nature of the project you will be working on.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This may seem very </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">obvious, </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">how much height do you need to have a close access to the area you are working on? </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you are looking for a scissor lift then you are going to be working on a project that basically requires some additional levels of height.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Platform height is the vertical distance between the ground the scissor lift is standing on and the floor of the platform that the operator would stand on.

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now you know how high you want the scissor lift to take you up, and it is a good time to give a lot of thinking about capacity. Any time you will lift worker and their tools and equipment, there would be a limitation on capacity and for the safety of soul involved in the site, it MUST be followed carefully. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Before deciding weight capacity, you should know a few things about your project. You should have a good idea about how much weight you want to lift. Guessing when renting your scissor lift may lead to project delay if you end up needing a new powerful scissor lift while working. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Yes, you can change your scissor lift, but you do not want to pick one and change it the next day.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You should have a list of the weights of the workers, equipment and tools that will be on the scissor lift platform. Estimates may be allowed in some cases, but having a precise number should be your goal. You have to make sure that you do not push the capacity to its limit of your scissor lift.</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Beside having a limitation on the capacity of the scissor lift, there will be a personnel limit regardless of weight capacity. Even if the capacity is higher than what your project needs. This may mean that you need to modify your work schedule, instead of doing many different parts at the same time, you may want to split up time to make sure that the personnel limit is not exceeded. Spending more time is a good </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">investment </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">to ensure the safety of your workers.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In general, scissor lifts have higher load capacities than boom lifts because the scissor lift rises straight up, not out. Depending on choosing a narrow or wide platform scissor lift, load capacity varies from 500 pounds to 2,500 pounds. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scissor lift platforms come in common standard sizes, most of them are rectangular in design, but this doesn't mean that square ones doesn't exist. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If the size of the platform is not wide enough, here it comes a very important feature all new modern scissor lifts already have; <b>the extension deck</b>. Magically, you can extend it to get at least 2 additional feet added to the platform, up to a 7 foot possible extending in some</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> extreme situations</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">But you should also know that any changing of the dimensions of the platform will affect the stability of scissor lift. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In this case bigger might not mean better. When extending the platform size, you are changing the center of gravity location of the whole scissor lift and having weight over capacity or an unbalanced load may cause heavy problems.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The center of gravity is important because it can affect performance of the scissor lift directly. An imbalanced object demands on the lift, so, in this case, a larger platform that should have a larger center of gravity could solve the problem.</span><br />

<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">#4. Project Nature</span></b></h3>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Choosing the right scissor lift you really need depends on the nature of your project. Lifting heavy loads; workers, their tools or any other material, very high is a difficult process. You need a scissor lift to raise your load and workers safely. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you are working many feet high off the ground, you should keep in mind that a fall could damage or even destroy your property, </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">or worse, the scissor lift itself, which is an expensive piece of equipment.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> Not to mention serious injuries that range up to death, God forbid. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">That’s why you must think about your project nature. Choosing the wrong scissor lift may cost a lot of money. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Some factors to consider other than the load is stable or not, is what’s inside it, and where is its center of gravity. The nature of the load also matters because sometimes some things don’t handle bumps well. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For example, a load that have a group of some fragile window glass may break into pieces if you chose the wrong type of scissor lift. That’s why the contents of the load matter.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now you should have a good idea about the type of the scissor lift that can make you reach the work space and hold both of workers and equipment that need to be lifted, but have you thought about the ground or terrain you will be working on? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Getting back to the project nature, to the terrain you are working on that has a lot to do with what kind of scissor lift you are going to choose, let's take c</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">onstruction sites for example.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Construction sites have a variety of grounds, and it is important to make sure that your scissor lift is made to have a high level of stability and a firm foundation on the ground you are working on. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A firm foundation on working terrain is one of the most basic necessities for working at heights. The last thing you want for your tools or equipment is to slide while enjoying your trip in the air.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It is not just the type of terrain the scissor lift will be on while elevating, but also the terrain which will be traveling on to get to your working spot. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Is the job site indoor or outdoor? </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Is the terrain</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> level or sloped? </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Is the terrain</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> dry, wet or frozen? Are there any holes or obstacles to navigate around in the ground? Or will the terrain be anyhow affected by the progress of constructing? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scissor lift is great for moving workers and their pieces of equipment straight up and down, but you have to get directly underneath the object you need to work on and </span>maneuver around if there is any obstacle on the job site.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If the terrain is challenging, muddy or rocky then you should choose a rough terrain scissor lift with four-wheel drive. If there would be debris scattered across the site then you should consider a rough terrain scissor lift with higher ground clearance.</span><br />
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></b>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">#6. Power Supply</span></b></h3>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Basically, scissor lift comes with one of two primary power supply; <b>Electric motor</b> that uses batteries or <b>Diesel or </b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>dual-fuel</b></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b> engine. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Diesel powered scissor lift is more common in Europe while i</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">n the US, t</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">he most popular engines use dual-fuel gas setup powered by either gasoline or liquid propane</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">, where environmental laws are different. But this doesn't mean that </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">you won't find some diesel engines in the market.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The type of scissor lift power supply you will choose depends on the<b> project nature </b>and<b> </b>the<b> type of the terrain</b>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Recharging electric scissor lift batteries takes about </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">eight hours </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">when the equipment batteries are </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">deeply consumed.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Electric scissor lifts do not have exhaust fumes. So, using them in closed spaces or indoors should be perfect.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Diesel powered scissor lifts should be used outdoors, because of exhaust fumes. The great part of using a diesel powered scissor lift engine is that you need nothing but bringing some extra fuel tanks, and go wherever you want for as long as you want.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The problem with diesel and dual-fuel engines is that their fuels give out exhaust fumes. Many cities banned using gas and diesel lifts indoors. Having a lot of toxic fumes in a closed space</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> is great a health hazard which</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> leaves only electric powered scissor lift for indoor uses.</span><br />
<b style="color: blue; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></b>
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<b style="color: blue; font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Hybrid-powered scissor lift</b></h4>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hybrid-powered scissor lift is the most flexible, you can use it indoors with electric power provided by batteries or switch it to a diesel or propane engine to use it outdoors and increase power or to eliminate the need for charging and decrease charging time.</span><br />
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></b>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Pull it together</span></b></h3>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As you can see, choosing the right scissor lift is not that tricky. First, write down the <b>Working Height</b> you need to accomplish your mission, then estimate how much <b>Weight</b> you are going to lift. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Once you know the weight capacity, go for <b>Platform Size</b>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You should consider some factors like your <b>P</b></span><b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">roject Nature</b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> and </span><b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Type of the Terrain</b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> you are working on, then make a decision about your <b>Power Supply</b>; will it be electrical motor, diesel or dual-fuel engine or both together? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">After you have narrowed down your options, you should have a good background about what you need and what is more suitable for your project and it is the time to make your call.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When renting or buying a scissor lift, double check and ask for advice from the person who manage the rental or selling, it is his job to know which scissor lift is the right choice for your needs.</span><br />
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></b>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: red;">Finally</span></b></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The scissor lift is a very useful piece of equipment due to its highly rated power. It looks like a giant platform from a distance but closely it is nothing but a motor with a platform that can lift heavy weights very high. </span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Each scissor lift has a weight limit. The sizes, weight capacities, and lift height vary from a scissor lift to another. The most</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">powerful</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> scissor lifts are better for larger projects but </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">sometimes more powerful scissor lift isn’t always better</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">And consider changing scissor lifts. Picking one and use it for every project you have is not a good idea. Sometimes, the best thing you can do is trying a different lift. </span><br />

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Genie lift has enlarged into one in every of the foremost fashionable aerial lift brands within the country, with a line containing electrical, bi-energy and diesel articulating boom lifts, telescopic boom lifts with reach capabilities starting from thirty-one to 80 feet, man lifts, scissor lifts, mast lifts, light-weight towers, and telehandlers. Now closely-held and operated by Terex, the genie has maintained its name for providing top of the range aerial lifts and in progress support.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The most up-to-date version of genie Lift’s flagship product the, Genie Lift™, the GL-4 is used as a go-cart, self-propelled vehicle or dolly. It is designed for shipping and receiving, lifting significant objects to and from shelving units, putting in and repairing HVAC systems and components, and lots of additional tasks. The maximum raise height of the GL-4 is 5 feet 11 inches, with a weight capacity of 500 pounds.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />The Xtra Capacity line from Genie Lift is a newer development that features a dual-envelope design with an unrestricted platform capacity of 660 pounds. The S-60 XC, a member of the Xtra Capacity family, was designed to perform a wide range of heavier lifting tasks on construction and industrial work sites. It will reach up to 59 feet 8.5 inches vertically and 50 feet 10 inches horizontally.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A subsidiary of Terex Corporation, genie additionally manufactures many different sorts of lifts, as well as scissor lifts, boom lifts, vertical mast lifts, and telehandlers, all of that need the operator to complete the aerial lift training before using them. Some of the assorted sorts of genie Lifts include:</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">• Material Lifts</span></div>

<b><span style="color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />What Makes Genie Lifts Unique?</span></b></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">It has to do with manpower. Genie Lifts are moveable and can be found out and operated by only one person. Another key difference is its size. Genie Lifts can work in ordinary aerial lifts and boom lifts can’t access. Because they’re moveable, Genie Lifts are simply loaded, transported and blank. They’re sufficiently little to sit through a regular size door and can enable operators to work in small, confined areas with low ceilings.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br />Genie Lifts come in various sizes. They’re often used in warehouses to move, lift and stack inventory, including computers, office equipment, small appliances, and other heavy or cumbersome items.

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The name - scissor lift - is inspired by the shape of the steel supporting beams under the work platform, which are hinged with pivot points to make the assembly looks like several sets of connected scissor blades, as they move up and down, they perform an open-close motion similar to scissors, so we called it a Scissor Lift.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Thanks to its mechanism that uses the linked, folding supports in the criss-cross X pattern which known as a pantograph or scissor mechanism.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Most scissor lifts are often consist of main five elements</span></h4>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>1. The Platform</b></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The products being lifted will be put on the top of the table, commonly referred to as the platform.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
<b>2. The Base</b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The bottom of the scissor lift that consists of strong rigid brackets. Besides being the heart for the unit, the base is engineered to guide the rollers at the bottom of the scissor legs. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Bases have a minimum size they have to adhere to, upon the size of the platform, the capacity, the amount of travel, and how the unit is being loaded and unloaded.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>3. Scissor Legs </b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Bridging the gap between the bottom and the platform are the vertical scissor legs. The legs carry the platform through the different elevation changes.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>4. Hydraulic Cylinders</b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Raising and lowering the scissor lift is actuated by high pressure hydraulic cylinders. On the common hydraulic scissor lift tables, the number of cylinders will typically vary from 1 to as many as 4 cylinders.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>5. Power supply</b></span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hydraulic lift tables are usually power-driven by diesel, gas or electrical motor. They can even be power-driven pneumatically via a high industrial compressor. </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: blue; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hydraulic scissor Lift Operation</span></h4>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A hydraulic lift table raises and lowers once the hydraulic fluid is pushed into or out of the hydraulic cylinder. As hydraulic fluid is pushed into a cylinder, the cylinder strokes outward making the scissor legs apart.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Raising a scissor lift since one finish of each the inner and outer connected to the bottom and platform, the platform rises vertically because the scissors legs close. The free finish of the scissors legs fitted with rollers that run on the base.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Any time a scissor lift is raised, it's being supported by a column of fluid. The lift table or platform remains in a high position as a result of the fluid is control within the cylinder by an easy check valve.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The desired up speed and capability to be raised verify the number of the motor needed, therefore the power unit needed. If a scissor lift must move quicker, it'll take additional power unit. If a scissor lift needs to have bigger capability, it will need additional power unit.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You should know that the journey up is not very smooth especially if you are using a scissor lift for the first time, but it is very safe and controlled. Also, the platform travels at different speeds as it raises due to the construction of the beams of the scissors lifting it.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>lowering the scissor Lift</b></span></span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Even high capacity scissor lift is lowered by opening a down valve that allows fluid out of the cylinder at a controlled rate. This down valve is magnet operated and a normally closed sort valve, which suggests it stays closed till the electrical magnet is motivated. This feature prevents the platform from lowering if there have been any failure. When the operator opens the down valve, the fluid returns to the reservoir.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As mentioned above, the pressure on the base of the criss-cross supports can be supplied with hydraulic pneumatic or mechanical systems, but it will usually not need any power to low the working platform, this makes the scissor lift is a uniquely safe type of work access platforms. Even if power of the system fails suddenly, the scissor lift has the fail-safe ability to low the platform to the ground safely.</span></div>

</div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A pneumatic lift is usually powered with an air compressor to elevate and position the product for simple loading and unloading. It typically uses some sort of airbag, either single, double, or multiple, depending on the size of the scissors lift and its application. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The obvious advantage of using a pneumatic lift is the point that it does not need any electricity. This also means there are no hazards of hydraulic exposure or process failure.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This type of lifts requires minimum maintenance and could be used in cleanrooms and food processing plants. Despite, pneumatic lift tables are typically not used in heavy-duty utilization with lower maximum capacities, where a high vertical lift is required, or where exact placement is required.</span></span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Pneumatic scissor lifts are suitable for applications and industries whereby precise positioning for assembly work isn't a demand. These lifts are also used for light loads and places where the use of hydraulics is not allowed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Electric scissor lifts batteries are the first thing you should check if something</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> wrong happened to your scissor lift, because 75% of the problems of these machines are directly related to the batteries.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Replacing electric scissor lift batteries is inescapable fact, just like death. But fortunately, you can control and extend the batteries lifespan of the scissor lift, and today I will show you the proper way to save your batteries Life.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lifespan depends on battery usage, most batteries last from 6 to 48 months, just 30% of each battery survived this average. A good and </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">lightly</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">used battery can last up to 15 years.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Having a clear understanding of the different battery technologies available on the whole business market include that the type of battery used to run your scissor lift will operate and gives you the best performance.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The price of a good battery is (at least) 100$. If you could understand the basics of your batteries and how to handle them, you will face fewer battery problems, get a high performance and long life batteries, and the most important, you will save your money.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You should know the proper procedures on how to service and charge the battery. You should be also familiar with charging operation instructions in order to replace the battery every four or five years (at a minimum) instead of replacing it every year.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">First of all, you have to know that the battery used in any electric scissor lift is a Lead Acid Battery, and from here we will start.</span><br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Lead Acid Battery</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Take some lead and sulfuric acid, put them in a container together and you end up with a chemical reaction that provides electricity. The water solution in the battery is called electrolyte, it is responsible for</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> making chemical reaction that provides electrons.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There are two main types of lead-acid batteries; Starting and Deep Cycle. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The natural use of the electric scissor lift requires a long cycle battery.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Deep cycle batteries have low instant energy and excellent long-term energy delivery. They have thick plates and can survive from a number of discharge cycles. Starting batteries must not be used for electric scissor lifts because it has thinner plates which can be damaged quickly when discharged.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Deep cycle batteries have two main versions of batteries, Serviceable as <b>Wet Cell </b>(flooded) battery, and Maintenance-free as <b>Gel Cell</b>, and Absorbed Glass Mat (<b>AGM</b>) batteries.</span><br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Serviceable battery</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A serviceable battery is that kind of batteries that need a regular inspection, maintenance, and water solution (electrolyte) checking. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Wet Cell</span></h4>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Wet cell is mostly a Serviceable battery that filled with electrolyte. If you have a scissor lift needs to be checked for the level of the solution, then the batteries are a serviceable wet cell.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Beside the traditional (serviceable) wet cell batteries and in response to market demand for batteries that no longer require being opened, GEL & AGM as maintenance-free batteries were the perfect answer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Maintenance-free battery</span></h4>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A maintenance-free battery is one that is not designed to be opened or refilled. Any gas that forms is recombined in the cell as water. This way there is always sufficient electrolyte in the battery.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">A maintenance-free battery uses a special system to absorb and hold the electrolyte, preventing it from escaping the battery by evaporating.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When a serviceable battery begins to lose its charge, adding distilled water may reactive the battery by recovering the plates with the solution. When a maintenance-free battery loses its ability to hold a charge, it must be replaced.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The electrolyte inside a Gel Cell has silica that makes it stiffen. Gel Batteries are the perfect one in very deep cycle applications and may remain a bit longer in hot weather. It is the common sensitive cell of over-voltage charging.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>AGM</b></span><br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Absorbed Glass Matt's construction enables the electrolyte to be suspended in the plates using separators consisting of a sponge-like glass fiber mat which is squeezed between the battery plates. This enhances the discharging and recharging efficiency. If you don't operate your scissor lift everyday, AGM batteries will keep their charge better than other models.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">AGM is named "sealed regulated valve", "dry cell", "non-spillable", and "Valve regulated Lead Acid Batteries". The common versatile type is the AGM battery for applications such as electric scissor lift.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Gel Cell batteries still are being sold however AGM batteries are replacing them in most utilization. Also, AGM batteries give a greater life span than a wet cell battery. The Gel Cell and the AGM batteries cost more than the Wet Cell because they store energy very well and do not sulfate as easily as the wet cell.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">To differentiate between Wet Cell and AGM batteries, look at the top of the battery. Serviceable lead acid (wet cell) batteries have caps or removable tops unless they say "sealed" on the label. Maintenance free lead acid batteries (AGM) have flat tops except for the positive and negative terminals.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Battery Maintenance is a matter of life or death for serviceable batteries. Also, you should take care of maintenance free batteries, its condition, and its cleanliness if you have this type of batteries.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>For both serviceable and maintenance free batteries</b> you should push the emergency button to off position then check battery case for damage.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The batteries should be cleaned carefully using a baking soda and water solution (two tablespoons to a half liter of water). Clean battery terminals thoroughly with a terminal cleaning tool or wire brush.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Cable connections also need to be cleaned and tightened because most problems are often caused by dirty and loosely connections and make sure that the battery hold-down brackets are in place and secure.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Adding terminal protectors and a corrosion preventative sealant will help eliminate the corrosion on the battery terminals and cables, for both free maintenance and serviceable batteries.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>For serviceable batteries</b>, you need to check the fluid level in each battery. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The plates of flooded batteries must always be fully submerged in the electrolyte. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If plates are not covered by at least 1/2” (13 mm) of the solution. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Use only mineral free water, add distilled or demineralized water.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Distilled or Demineralized ?</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Basically, distilled water is the water which heated to above boiling point and the steam from that water is collected and cooled to produce liquid water. </span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Demineralised water is made by passing the water through special resins which designed to exchange ions in the water so that the final result makes pure water, also, it is cheaper than distilled water. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Distilled is best as all impurities have been removed which may contaminate your cells.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While adding water, Don't overfill battery cells because the fluid may expansion in hot weather which pushes excess electrolytes from the battery. And NEVER add electrolyte.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">WARNING: Battery acid (electrolyte) is extremely corrosive. Wear suitable eye and facial protection and suitable protective clothing. If contact happens, immediately flush with cold water and seek medical attention. Also, keep flames and sparks away. Do not smoke near batteries. This may lead to Explosion.</span><br />
<br /></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Always remember that proper battery condition is essential to good machine performance and operational safety. Incorrect fluid levels or broken cables and connections can result in component damage and hazardous situations. So, make sure to pay some time to daily and scheduled maintenance.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scheduled Maintenance</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Maintenance performed regularly, annually and every two years must be completed.Scissor lifts that have been out of service for longer than three months should get the quarterly inspection before they are put back into service. You should replace any battery that is damaged or incapable of holding a lasting charge.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Most electric scissor lifts are equipped with Wet Cell batteries. But now, the most scissor lift manufacturers went to use AGM batteries in the newest scissor lifts to make things easier for users and renting companies.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Selecting a Battery</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">When buying a new battery it's recommended that you look for a battery with the greatest amp-hour (AH) rating available.</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">An amp hour (AH) is a rating usually used to deep cycle batteries. In order to get an AH rating, the battery has to be drained down to 0% over a standard of a specified amount of time, which is 20 hours (for deep cycle batteries).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The amount of amperage that takes it down to 0% over 20 hours is the AH rating. So, if a battery has a rating of 200AH at 20 Hr rate, then that battery was discharged over 20 hours with a 10 amp load (10 Amp x 20 H = 200 AH). But, it's really necessary to know that the entire time of discharge and load applied is not a linear relationship.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Physical size, Cable hook up and Terminal type must be considered also. Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) battery is preferred rather than a Wet Cell in the scissor lift field if you have the budget.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Use original or equivalent to the original batteries for the scissor lift and do not use batteries that weigh less than the original equipment. Batteries are used as a counterweight and are critical to machine stability.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Never alter, remove, or substitute any items such as counterweights, tires, batteries, platforms or other items that may reduce or affect the overall weight or stability of the machine. Use original or manufacturer-approved parts and components for the scissor lift.</span></blockquote>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Battery performance</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The battery doesn't take a charge? The battery doesn't hold a charge? The battery does't fully charge?</span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This happens when the sulfur in the electrolyte becomes deeply discharged, it begins to coat the lead plates of the battery. Battery dies before the plates become completely coated. Here are the common reasons which lead to sulfation:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- Leaving the batteries for a long time before charging. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- Incomplete charged battery. If you charged the battery to only 90% of its capacity you are letting the 10% not reactivated covering the plates. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- You must return the energy you consumed immediately. If you don't the battery sulfates and that affects performance. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- Most cheap battery chargers can do infinite harm than good. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">- Low electrolyte level. Wet cell battery plates which exposed to air will immediately sulfate. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Try to avoid these reasons as possible as you can, and remember, it's a matter of life or death for the batteries and for your wallet.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Before charging batteries, you must choose a safe parking area, firm level surface, clear of obstruction and traffic. Lower the platform. Turn the key switch to the off position and remove the key to secure from unauthorized use then chock the wheels.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Provide adequate ventilation for the batteries and charger. The convection-cooled design needs passage to cooling air for proper operation. Do not let blankets or different materials to cover the charger. Although the charger protects itself against heating, the charger cooling fins must be cleaned if clogged with debris for the best performance. The charger is located at the base or inside the battery tray.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Open the battery tray and be sure the batteries are connected before charging the batteries (the tray is recommended to remain open for the entire charging cycle).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>To charge Maintenance-free batteries</b>, just connect the battery charger to a grounded AC input.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>To charge Serviceable batteries</b>, remove the battery vent caps and check the battery acid level. </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If necessary, add only enough distilled water to cover the plates. Do not overfill prior to the charge cycle. Replace the battery vent caps. join the battery charger to a grounded AC circuit.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The charger will begin automatically in four to six seconds. The charger will begin even with critically discharged batteries (down to 1V terminal voltage). Once charging starts, the LEDs should indicate the charging progress.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Charging time is affected by various factors including battery Amp-Hour capacity, depth of discharge, temperature of battery, and battery condition (new, old or broken). Batteries larger than 240 AH will take a longer time to charge. However, the average time for charging is 12–16 hours and up to 36–48 hours for large batteries.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The charger will indicate when the battery is completely charged. When charge cycle is finished, separate the charger plug from the battery tray.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Always REMEMBER that batteries like to be charged in a specific way and regularly, especially when they have been deeply discharged.</span></blockquote>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Cold weather is hard on the lead acid battery. The chemistry does not make the same amount of electricity as a warm battery. A deeply discharged battery can freeze sooner than one that is fully charged. Do not allow a lead acid to freeze. And NEVER charge a frozen battery.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Finally</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">You can extend your battery life as long as your battery is charged enough, regularly, and properly. It will live several years. The rule is so simple: You can not discharge your batteries deeply. The more energy consumption, the shorter average of battery life has become. And remember, poor battery condition can cost you an electronic failure.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scissor lift is a movable hydraulic powered platform that made to rise personnel</span><br />
<a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> and equipment in a vertical path</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> to access difficult-to-reach areas in order to </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">enable operators to complete their jobs faster and more securely without setup time of any other equipment, such as scaffolding or a tower, and </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">without any concern for balance while using a ladder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The main advantages of a scissor lift over ladder or scaffolding are safety and speed. With a ladder, there is always be a probability that you can fall off it easily while concentrating on your work, or if the ladder feet slip you may have a broken leg or arm or even worse, a broken neck. With a scissor lift, you have four wheels and potentially outriggers to plant into the ground to make it extra safe. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">While a common </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">scaffolding system needs a lot of time and workers to setup and move from a spot to another.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Scissor lift is widely utilized and capable of lifting SIGNIFICANT loads, up to <b>2500 </b>pounds, safely and efficiently, thanks to its mechanism that uses linked, folding in the form of criss-cross X pattern which knew as a <b>pantograph </b>or <b>scissor mechanism</b>. </span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">Criss-crossed beams that elongate as the platform is elevated are the basic feature of scissor lift that distinguishes it visually from any other equipment used to work in the air.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">The up motion is done by applying pressure on the outside of the lowest set of supports that causes elongation to the crossing pattern and moving the work platform vertically. </span><br />

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Scissor lift is basically designed to move only up and down. However, some scissor lift platforms </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">have </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">fitted with</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> an extending deck to enable closer access to the </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">required</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> work area in order to reduce </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">vertical-only movement limitation</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. </span></span><br />
