Operator Comfort
Simple Control Box
The control box includes a comfortable steering joystick which ensures smooth movements and precise control. The uncluttered design also allows the operator to easily see important indicators related to the battery level, faults, overload, and tilt.
Well Designed Platform Extension
Operators can easily extend the platform thanks to a very robust and durable locking system. The platform design also helps reduce lateral and longitudinal swaying, which improves operator comfort while working at height.
Productivity & Performance
Excellent Rough Terrain Capabilities
The scissor lifts electrical design, combined with a mechanical axle transmission, produces powerful torque and all terrain performance. This performance is comparable to diesel scissor lifts.
Powerful Torque
The AC motors deliver unmatched efficiency and exceptional torque. This helps produce a market leading drive speed of 4.5 km/h. The scissor lift also produces a quick 3 second steering speed which further improves productivity.
Proportional Movements
Lifting and lowering movements are completely proportional which creates very precise and smooth operation. This improves operators on the job comfort and confidence.
Best Turning Circle
The Optimum 8 achieves one of the tightest turning circles on the market at 1.50 metres. This enables operators to easily manoeuvre around restrictive or tight environments including corridors, hallways and congested industrial areas.
Indoor and Outdoor Rated
The optimised weight and ground pressure allows the Optimum 8 to be used indoors on fragile floors, including shopping centres. The platform can also be used in wind speeds up to 45km/h while still maintaining its 230kg load capacity.
Safety
Pothole Protection
The automatic pothole protection system allows the scissor lift to travel over obstacles quite easily. This also means that it has no issues traveling up ramps during transport.
Intelligent Counterweight Design
Optimum 8 introduces the world’s first counterweight in the back of the chassis. This indestructible counterweight acts as a shock absorber that protect the scissor entrance from damage due to repeated knocks. This makes the scissor lift more robust. Furthermore, the anti-slip surface allows the operator to enter and exit the platform basket safely.
Easily Accessible Tie Down & Lift Points
The tie down points located on each corner make slinging and securing the scissor lift during transport safe. Furthermore, the forklift pockets built into the chassis allow for easy and safe transportation without the fear of tipping over.
Servicing & Maintenance
Parts Durability
A special anticorrosion treatment has been applied to the paint, axles, rings, screws and bolts, to increase part durability. Fewer hydraulic hoses in its design also helps reduce the risk of oil leaks.
Waterproof Connectors
The waterproof connectors help protect the electrical circuits from moisture and corrosion. This helps minimise breakdowns and allows the scissor lift to work outdoors.
Activ’Screen Diagnostic System
The embedded diagnostic system is very easy to use and provides operators with key information like alarms and maintenance alerts. This helps operators to quickly diagnose issues so they can keep working. Furthermore, the system also allows technicians to easily login and program and calibrate the machine without the use of tools.
Maintenance Free AC Motors
As there ae no carbon brushes to be replaced, the AC motors require no regular maintenance. This helps reduces both running and maintenance costs.
Easy Access to Components
The scissor lift allows for easy maintenance thanks to its two, easy to open swings out trays. One tray contains the batteries and the other for hydraulic and electrical systems.
