15.8m Electric Scissor Lift Hire Specifications

The JCB S4550E 15.8m Electric Scissor Lift is designed to provide safe and efficient access for indoor and outdoor working-at-height applications on firm, level surfaces. Robust, reliable, and easy to operate, this machine is ideal for maintenance, installation, inspection, servicing, refurbishment, and construction work.

Providing a maximum working height of 15.8m and a platform height of 13.8m, the machine enables operators to safely complete a wide range of overhead tasks. The 230kg safe working load supports up to two operators with tools while maintaining stable lifting performance throughout the working envelope.

With a compact machine width of just 1.27m and an overall length of 2.76m, the lift can easily pass through standard doorways and operate within narrow aisles, storage areas, and confined workspaces. The stowed height measures 2.6m, reducing to 2.2m with the guardrails folded, allowing improved access through restricted entrances and internal building access points.

The platform incorporates a 0.9m roll-out extension deck, providing additional reach and working space when operating at height. This feature allows operators to work more efficiently around obstacles and access difficult-to-reach areas without repositioning the machine.

The spacious platform measures approximately 2.64m x 1.15m and incorporates a 0.9m roller-supported extension deck, providing additional reach and working space when operating at height. This helps improve productivity while reducing the need for repositioning the machine.

Powered by a 48V electric drive system using four 12V deep-cycle batteries with an integrated charger, the S4550E delivers quiet, zero-emission operation ideal for indoor construction projects, retail environments, warehouses, and commercial facilities.

The machine has an operating weight of approximately 3,360kg, providing a stable working platform while maintaining excellent manoeuvrability around site. Non-marking tyres help protect finished flooring surfaces while allowing smooth movement around indoor environments.
