Stupid scissor lift

[@doitrightcmrs3373]

Nothing wrong with that lift. Just the user. Next time rent a man lift.

[@biggils8894]

No! the censor thinks it’s on a slant and panics and retracts for nonFN REASON

[@CMDR-V-UncleJ]

I am having such a good time reading the comments. I have been to both Genie & JLG factory Worked for a rental company... Nothing wrong with that Lift. I would drive a 125 boom lift fully extended for fun :-)

You would only catch me dead on that thing.

[@grasscutter88]

better than a ladder.

[@llVIU]

i mean... youll probably die on that thing

[@neilgordo4654]

Heh, Mr. George, how much do you pay for the new operator😂

[@anthonys7534]

Twenty bucks!

[@joewoodchuck3824]

I don't care what training someone has, that thing doesn't convey much confidence by the way it doesn't appear to be very stable. I'd feel a lot better if it had some outrigger supports at the very least. Reminds me of stuff I made 60 years ago with my Erector set that always fell over when made too long or too tall.

[@MrEatenalive]

I am glad at least one person besides the two of us in the video GET IT !

[@BobKermanPlaysGames]

That is very secure and certified. No reason at all to worry

[@hcsdiecastmetal7442]

All terrain scissor lift do those are meant to be used inside on flat ground

[@Wolfgulfur]

Yikes, i don’t even like looking at that thing. Everything about just screams “No”. Nothing about that inspires confidence in any way shape or form.

[@Anonymous-mx9dh]

@@Wolfgulfurif you’re afraid of equipment and or heights. Just say that.

[@curtdaddy473]

Theres a reason we dont carry jlg scissors. Skyjacks are the way to go, lgmgs have really sensitive sensors and some contractors refuse to use them- plus the paint is peeling off our units less than a year old. Genies seem to have constant issues aswell in my opinion.

[@curtdaddy473]

The new MECs seem promising, lots of power, and damn they are quick.. twice as fast and anything else and when you are moving 30 units a day that time saved adds up

[@kurtbatman8062]

The Genies do suck lol. Terribly slow steering, beeps and alarms at literally everything, constantly having to reselect up/down or fwd/back, constant issues with random stuff, and the beeper is so loud it's painful

[@Borkery]

I spend alot of time on these machines, specifically the JLG machines and Genie machines. The JLG's are notoriously terrible with how their trigger works. especially when the mechanism starts to get sloppy n dirty. the gimmick is this. you have to press the trigger on the joystick before any other input is detected. this includes whatever slight wiggle you give the stick when you are just trying to squeeze the safety trigger. heaven forbid the joystick mechanism has begun to experience the big controller version of joystick Drift. I like the Genie lifts better, we call em the mercedes of lifts

[@KC9UDX]

This!

[@SuperS05]

Yea I like genie better too, but JLG works fine when maintenance keeps them in good condition. We rent ours so that if there is a problem, we demand it get fixed asap, and back charge it.

[@treehugger4916]

OSHA doesn’t approve certain scissor lifts to be driven in the raised position. This one was wired with that in mind

[@jimmychanbers2424]

It does look kinda sketchy.

[@JoeBidenIsGreat]

Not a operator but wasn't it just highly over extended? It looks safer when you don't push the scissor thing to the limit .

[@LygerTheCLaw]

worst design ever, no one with an engineering degree would ever put a human on that thing.

[@logitech4873]

Why not?

[@LygerTheCLaw]

@@logitech4873 because it puts all of its stress on 25% of the lift base and platform, not even in the center. this causes parts to be subjected to more lateral force and premature wear. you think sway was bad on a new machine, give this one a couple years of daily work.

[@Bullwinkle39]

​@@LygerTheCLawit looks like the platform will just fold if operator leans over too far

[@robhill6400]

It was made by a team of people with engineering degrees... it has a weight limit for a reason

[@swizlestick]

I'm sure one of the largest equipment manufacturer in doesnt know half as much as you do....

[@CannonFodder873]

Right tool for the right job....'twas ALWAYS thus.🤣

[@JeffBattleFish]

Untrained operator.

[@unnecessarycommotion4039]

JLG lifts are terrible, in my opinion. We have multiple scissor lifts. All the same model JLG, and they all run differently. No two are alike. Most have very lazy joysticks and deadman switches, and one responds better than the rest, but is still far from great. They steer very slow, and when switching modes from driving to raising or lowering, there is sometimes such a bad lag that the lift will continue to operate in the mode you just switched out of for two to three seconds before switching to the mode you want to be in. The level sensors also seem to go off for no reason, requiring you to lower back down before you can drive. We used to run Genie lifts and they were fantastic. These, not so much.

[@Kushert]

No thanks

[@ToriBrennan-v1n]

RCC const. Employee 2xs engaged the lift as I was halfway in...on it causing me the 1st time tumble into the arms of laborer. 2ndtime again with knowledge of my position again engaged it causing me to fall an injury to my back.. and fired me the same day..with no knowledge of his decision...In law suit. Now.... yeah...

[@MeMime-nv9tt]

Playing with the pressurized fire lines are ya

[@rchydrozz751]

Fully extended. It looks like if you moved too fast forward, it would tip over. Looks very unstable.

[@llVIU]

you never drove a scissor lift in your life. you cant move it while fully extended

[@CMDR-V-UncleJ]

Thats why theres Limit switches.

[@Wolfgulfur]

That has got to be the dumbest scissor lift design literally ever. What the heck is everyone blaming the user for? There is nothing to indicate that he is breaking any sort of common sense and/or osha rules. That lift is just sketchy as frick

[@Tre16]

Nothing wrong with the lift at all lol

[@Wolfgulfur]

@@Tre16 there isn’t one thing about that lift that caught your attention? Anything at all? There are multiple to choose from.

How is he up there operating it without knowledge of operation. Accident waiting to happen.

[@decker1130]

Accident waiting to happen….no ipaf training for that user

[@grasscutter88]

You have to flip a switch to change from traveling to raising/lowering. When it's up that high it doesn't move very fast, like maybe 1mph, but still scary if you foget.

[@MrEatenalive]

Thanks for all the views😂 the lift we ordered was supposed to extend from the middle and reach up 40ft. This one clearly did neither.

[@MrEatenalive]

WoW....So hostile over a video about a scissor lift! Thanks for your input though!

[@lostcause1206]

Yea , these assholes will eat you alive ... And next time don't accept the wrong lift .

[@AztecWarrior69_69]

@@MrEatenalive For some reason I cannot read the comment that is being "hostile" but seeing the video I would have to say, any hostility is justified.

[@chadly312]

they dont make mid-rise scissor lifts like these, it wouldnt be possible. only on small lifts for vehicles

[@MaxViettuyer]

Can anyone tell me the formula needed to get the allowable speed at a specific height of the lifter for it to not buckle.

[@joewoodchuck3824]

I don't think speed is a factor.

[@Fozzie68]

I’d say the operator was the problem !! It’s a bit like the input on a computer. The computer responds to the input.

[@nshuda42]

Our lift has a plywood floor with a hole in it but we still use it lol

[@Lastbreath187]

JLG is the only lift thats backwards with controls

[@Keymanofco]

He's not lift certified, has no safety harness on, and has no clue what to do. This facility needs to be issued a citation for allowing him anywhere near that lift.

[@MrEatenalive]

Thanks for your uninformed comment...OSHA does not require a sefety harness for a scissor lift UNLESS the hand rails are removed! The hand rails serve as fall protection unless removed !

[@georei]

No harness required unless required by the general contractor. Boom lifts on the other hand, you would be stupid not to wear one.

[@lostcause1206]

He needs a 12' ladder.

[@jamesp8391]

If you do something to fall off a scissor lift with rails, then you’re too stupid to be operating a scissor lift. However, if the stupid thing is tiny, unstable and falls over with you on it... then you tell me how a harness is going to save you lol. You’re now chained to the stupid thing and have no chance of escaping the fall.

[@stevenconnor4221]

Nothing wrong with it just user specifications / assuptions.. Before using any machine know how it operates know its niggles peculiarities its limits of use.. will save a lot of heart ache and peoples lives. Its called familiarity and it is a pre requisite by EU law for operator IPAF use.

[@whophead6837]

The reason is, so the lights blink for a few seconds before it starts lowering, to give people below time to move.

[@kristopherbuchanan974]

Harness on scissor lift is NOT an osha requirement. Dont believe me look it up. It has a toe board mid and top rail. You can choose to wear it but its not a danger to fall if you follow the simple rules of not climbing on the rails.
