A scissor lift is a drivable machine with a platform that raises and lowers. It is typically used for maintenance and construction, but is also commonly used in warehouses to reach racking for minor repairs, and for stock take / stock counting operations. Some film crews will also use scissor lifts to get a unique camera angles. To operate a scissor lift, use the horizontal switch to swap between driving and raising the platform. Use the vertical switch to change the lift’s speed. Use the joystick to control the direction that you drive or move the platform. Always take the proper safety precautions by wearing a safety harness and waiting for the scissor lift to reach a complete stop before entering a new input. Different brands of scissor lifts will have slightly different controls and sensitivity so take some time to familiarize yourself with the machine before commencing work.
