Genie platform looks to boost site productivity

THE Genie 13ft four-metre platform for boom lifts is now available for use on three Genie XC boom lifts.

The manufacturer explained that the platform adds more than 60% additional room in the platform.

The solution is compatible with Genie S-45 XC, S-65 XC and S-85 XC boom lifts and described as ‘especially well suited’ for tasks that involve an extensive working area – such as renovation of buildings and cladding – as well as sites with limited space to manoeuvre on the ground.

“This new platform offers benefits for equipment owners and operators,” said Logan Wood, Genie associate product manager. “Because the expanded work space allows operators to cover more area, the number of boom movements required to get a job done can be cut in half, significantly boosting jobsite productivity.

“At the same time, because the platform is compatible with multiple Genie boom lift models and can be swapped for the machine’s standard platform the same day, it also offers rental companies a simple, cost-effective way to boost the versatility of the booms in their fleet.”
