Terex’s Genie brand is expanding its rough terrain scissor lift lineup with three new lifts, the GS-2669 DC, GS-3369 DC, and GS-4069 DC. The GS-4069 DC scissor is the world’s first 40 ft. full drive-height electric scissor lift in its class designed to offer increased operator productivity and increased uptime while on the jobsite. The GS-2669 DC and the GS-3369 DC also offer the full drive height feature.
The addition of electric drive motors provides emissions-free performance in enclosed buildings. Users can charge the scissor lifts overnight so they are ready to go the next morning.
Rough terrain capability allows the scissor series to be used both indoors, where there is emissions and noise sensitivity, and outdoors for a number of applications. All three scissor lifts are capable of driving through dirt, sand, and mud. Non-marking rough terrain tires are standard with turf tires as optional.
A standard front active oscillating axle helps keep all four wheels on the ground during operation, providing increased machine control and traction when going over hills and obstacles. The full-time oscillating axle automatically senses the terrain and adjusts the axle position based on ground conditions, regardless of the scissor’s position, according to the company.
Lifting capacity remains at 1,500 lbs. on the GS-2669 DC, 1,000 lbs. on the GS-3369 DC and 800 lbs. on the GS-4069 DC. A five ft. extension deck provides operators with increased work platform space. On ANSI models, these new scissor lifts provide an increased platform work space of 13 percent.
Stowed drive speed is recorded at 4.5 mph. The company said this is a 50-percent increase over the company’s previous DC models and a 30-percent increase over its IC rough terrain models.
