Choosing the right scissor lift size is critical for ensuring efficiency and safety on job sites. When considering the appropriate equipment for a particular project, it’s essential to assess the requirements of the task, the work height, and the ground conditions. Zoomlion Access offers a variety of scissor lifts, including the 18m scissor lift, which is designed for medium- to high-level projects.
Assessing the Work Height Requirements
One of the most critical factors when selecting a scissor lift is determining the required working height. The Zoomlion Access 18m scissor lift provides a maximum working height of 13.8 meters, making it ideal for jobs requiring significant vertical reach. Whether you’re tackling construction, maintenance, or repair tasks, knowing the work height helps ensure you’re choosing the right size lift for the job.
Evaluating Ground Conditions and Terrain
Another consideration when selecting a scissor lift is the terrain of the job site. The Zoomlion Access large scissor lift offers excellent ground clearance and a 40% gradeability, allowing it to work in various outdoor environments. Its high ground clearance ensures smooth travel over uneven surfaces, reducing the risk of operational delays. If your job site includes rough terrain, this model’s versatility can keep your project moving forward without complications.
Understanding Platform Capacity and Weight
The Zoomlion Access large scissor lift offers a platform capacity of 350kg, ensuring ample weight-bearing for a few workers or heavy tools and equipment. It’s important to match the platform capacity with your team’s needs to prevent overloading, which could lead to dangerous situations or machine malfunctions. Additionally, with its relatively light weight of 4900kg, this model offers flexibility in transportation and storage.
Conclusion
In conclusion, selecting the appropriate size for a scissor lift involves understanding the job site conditions and the specific requirements of your project. The Zoomlion Access 18m scissor lift strikes a balance between height, capacity, and adaptability, making it a valuable asset in various industries.
