Onescissor liftuses a mechanical scissor system forstable, vertical lifting movements with high load capacity.

Which technology is better depends on the application:

• Telescope technology = range & height
• Scissors = load capacity & work surface

The width of a scissor lift varies depending on the model and intended use:

• Compact electric scissor lifts: approx. 0.80 to 1.20 m wide – ideal for doorways and narrow aisles
• All-terrain diesel scissor lifts: approx. 1.70 to over 2.30 m wide – for high load capacity and stability
