Buying used access equipment
Powered access equipment that lifts people must have a thorough examination under LOLER at least every six months, so ask for the latest report and check the date. The report should list the safe working load and any defects. Ask for the manufacturer, model and serial number, and confirm the platform capacity and maximum working height on the data plate.
When you view the machine, check the platform controls and the ground controls, the emergency lowering, the tilt and overload alarms, the tyres or tracks and the batteries. Battery condition is the most common hidden cost on electric scissor lifts and booms. Ask for proof that any safety recalls from the manufacturer have been carried out.
What a good listing includes
- Make, model, year and hours, with the working height and platform capacity.
- Power type (battery, diesel or dual fuel) and whether it is rough terrain or indoor use.
- Date of the last thorough examination and whether the report is available.
- Battery age and charger included, for electric machines.
Selling used access equipment
Advertising on MachineFinder is free and there is no commission. Buyers search by working height and by maker, such as Genie, JLG, Skyjack, Niftylift, Haulotte or Snorkel, so give both clearly. A photo of the data plate and of the examination report tells a buyer you have nothing to hide. Scaffold towers and tube should be described by type, length and quantity.
