Buying a used aerial work platform: A professional technical guide
Buying used is only worthwhile if the technology, safety features, and history are sound. Therefore, you should pay attention to a few key points when purchasing a used aerial work platform.
The core checks in practice
- Start with theHour counterDo the meter reading and the visible [information] match?Wear patternIf the joysticks, pedals, and tires all match, the basis is plausible. If the feel deviates from the stated value, stop the test or demand verifiable proof.
- Examine theStructural conditionCracks in welds, warped frames, or freshly ground areas indicate accident damage. A clean structure is non-negotiable.
- CheckTurntableandboom bearingIf the bearings run smoothly and without perceptible play, the mechanism is working correctly. Detent points, noise spikes, or axial wobble indicate expensive repairs.
- Rate thishydraulic systemThe stage must build up pressure quickly, whether cold or warm, and be precisely controlled. Jerking, overrun, or discolored oil indicate wear and tear and neglected maintenance.
- TestDrive and brakesThe machine should start smoothly, run in a straight line, and decelerate in a controlled manner. Vibrations or hotspots after a short drive are warning signs.
- Secure theelectrical systemaway.Deadman,Emergency stopandTilt sensorsThey must react without delay. Unstable power supply or CAN errors render any further discussion pointless.
- Look insideEnergy packageFor electrical appliances, documented [information] is required.Battery capacity test, in the case of diesel thecompressionand the history of the exhaust aftertreatment. Deviations will directly affect your running costs.
- Check theSecurity featuresin real-world testing.Overload shutdown,Load moment limiterandEmergency drainThey must operate stably and reproducibly. Soft limits or overshoot are unacceptable.
- Check theDocumentsSeamlessUVV,CEAnd the original operating instructions are mandatory. If anything is missing, your risk increases – immediately.
- Close with aTest drive under loadOnly at maximum extension do stability, hydraulic and control problems reliably become apparent.
Preparation and clear exclusions
Define yourDeployment profileBefore the inspection: Working height, basket load, reach, and ground class determine the appropriate machine. Undersizing or oversizing costs money and time.
Check theSpare parts supplyEstablished brands ensure short downtimes and predictable prices. More exotic brands appear inexpensive, but can quickly stall projects due to parts shortages.
SetTermination criteriaAbsolutely. Without CE marking, type plate or UVV certificate, there will be no deal – regardless of the price.
Identity and operating hours
ComparisonsMeter readingand visible wear and tear. Fresh stickers on old paint or unusually "new" controls are indicators, not quality. Insist on plausibility, not stories.
LetLogsRead out the data. Control units and chargers provide cycle counts, error codes, and reset histories. If the data doesn't match the counter, the decision is simple.
Structural check: frame, scissors, mast, boom
welds
Uniform, smooth caterpillar tracks without pores or discoloration indicate good health. Abrasion marks without documented repairs are grounds for removal.
Scissors package
The scissors must run synchronously and parallel. Misalignment or ovalized bearing seats indicate twisting and high wear.
Boom/Telescope
Sliding pieces, extension play, and end positions must be precisely aligned. Hard stops indicate misalignment or bearing problems.
Turntable
The condition of the grease and the presence of metal shavings reveal wear. Measurable play and noticeable clicking or rattling quickly drive costs into the five-figure range.
basket and railing
A straight seat and crack-free consoles are mandatory. Jerky basket rotation and broken cables at the control panel are clear defects.
Hydraulics: pump, valves, cylinders, lines
Pressure and temperature
The stage must operate with the same sensitivity whether cold or warm. A decrease in performance during hot operation indicates a problem with the pump or valve block.
Oil condition
Milky oil indicates water, dark oil indicates burn marks, and foam indicates air ingress. Every finding has a cause – and a price.
Cylinder and valve block
Corroded rods and "sweating" seals are not minor defects. Hysteresis or overrun can reveal internal leaks.
lines
Excessively tight radii and chafing points drastically shorten the service life. Ensure the hose is routed cleanly within the boom.
Electrical and electronic systems
Security chain
Deadman,Emergency stopEnabling switches must operate without delay. Inertia is a showstopper.
Sensors and limit switches
Tilt and load sensors require calibrated cutoffs. Bent actuators or diffuse switching points are unacceptable.
Control panels and supply
Joysticks with low deadband and stable voltage are essential. Voltage drops under load indicate larger problems.
ECU/CAN
Error histories and communication breakdowns need to be addressed. "Sporadic" becomes "constant" in the workplace.
Energy package: Battery, charger, diesel/hybrid
Electrical appliances
A documentedCapacity testInternal resistance and cell drift are essential considerations. The charger must be compatible with the cell chemistry and function flawlessly.
Diesel/Hybrid
Cold start, smoke pattern andcompressionThey provide hard facts. DPF/AdBlue cycles and fault memory reveal the truth behind the warning light.
Chassis, drive system, brakes
Tires and tracks
A uniform profile and no serrations indicate good quality. Cracks, side edges, and worn rollers increase the cost of any use.
Drive motors and transmissions
Vibration-free and cool after the test drive indicates good health. Oily sealing caps are not a "sweat film," but rather the result of maintenance.
Steering and brakes
Minimal play, clean end stops, and a smooth orbitrol are standard. The hillside test demonstrates the holding power of the parking brake beyond any doubt.
Security features in real-world testing
Overload and LMB
The stage must have defined boundaries and stable control. Overshoot is a risk, not a feature.
Emergency drain
The emergency lowering procedure must function clearly and quickly from both the basket and the ground. The time taken to reach ground level must be recorded.
Access control
Key switches or badge systems prevent misuse. False alarms in the log indicate defects or makeshift solutions.
Typical weak points according to design
Scissor lifts
Hairline cracks at junctions and ovalized bolts are common findings. The platform extension must run smoothly, and the cable chain must operate without interference.
Articulated telescope/telescope
Sliding pieces must not be at their adjustment limit. Hose packages in the boom are prone to chafing if the guidance is incorrect.
Caterpillar platforms
Roller wear and chain breaks are expensive and project-critical. Check the lifting eyes and ramp angles of your fleet.
Truck and trailer platforms
The support leg mounts are the first to break under heavy use. Check for frame corrosion, MOT/emissions test, and ABS issues before discussing the price.
Test drive under load
Perform all movements at maximum extension and lateral reach. Pay attention to fine-tuning, vibrations, and control stability at the limits.
Test the procedure with the platform raised to the permitted height on level ground. The return to the transport position must function without jamming.
Cost traps and negotiation
BatteriesandTurntablesThe price is determined by the paint, not the finish. Ask to see measurement results and factor in replacement costs carefully.
Hose packagesThe cost of work on the boom is based on labor, not the price per meter. Request a service package including a new UVV inspection, oil, and filters before handover.
Documentation and handover
Create a photo record of the structure, cylinders, pipes, and nameplate. Fix the nextUVV due datein written form.
Check theMaintenance historyPay attention to the parts and intervals. Have the instructions for emergency lowering, tilting, and transport functions confirmed.
