Scissors
Snorkel unveiled the first in a new series of
high capacity rough terrain scissor lifts at
Bauma.
With powerful lift and drive capabilities,
the Snorkel S4390RT is ideal for construction
applications, said the company. Preliminary
specifications are for a machine with 13.1 m
maximum platform height. Fitted with twin
1.3 m deck extension, these provide a working
area of 1.82 m x 6.60 m and a safe working
load of 680 kg.
The addition of high capacity rough terrain
scissor lifts completes the Snorkel product
range in all key segments, it said. Snorkel also
launched another two new products at Bauma
2013 - and updated one of its most popular
machines.
The S3970RT is the third product in
Snorkel’s existing compact rough terrain
scissor family. Built on Snorkel’s SRT chassis,
the S3970RT provides a maximum platform
height of 11.5 m but is only 1.8 m wide and
3.3 m long.
The company also extended its low level
access offering with the S1030E self-propelled
mini-scissor lift. Providing a 3m maximum
platform height, the battery-powered S1030E
is still lightweight enough for almost any floor
with load-bearing restrictions.
Also in the low-level access sector, Snorkel
has enhanced its M1230E 3.6 m platform
height self-propelled mast lift with a 500 mm
roll-out deck extension.
