Recently as featured on Vertikal was a news story highlighting the importance of wearing a safety harness whilst working at height.
The 32ft Genie scissor lift, was involved in securing steel beams working alongside the crane. Alarmingly, the machine’s fixed end pivot points parted company with the platform, causing it to tip and dump the operator. Fortunately, the operator was wearing a harness which potentially saved his life.
Here at Lifterz, we offer comprehensive training to make sure things like this never happen! Call our training department today to see what courses we can offer you, 03300 580807

JLG Engine-Powered Scissor Lifts Win Highest Retain Value Award
JLG Industries, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of aerial work platforms and telehandlers, has won the 2018 EquipmentWatch’s annual Highest Retained Value Awards program, the industry’s only award program based on residual values for heavy equipment.
This is the second consecutive year that JLG has won this award. Scissor lift manager at JLG Rafael Nuñez added “Residual value plays a significant role in buying decisions, as it impacts both leasing terms and lifetime ownership costs. The Highest Retained Value Award recognizes the ongoing efforts at JLG to deliver equipment that provides excellent value over its life cycle – value that is enhanced by our attention to maintenance, service, parts, training, machine reliability, and machine versatility.”
Unlike some of its competitors, JLG scissor lifts offer larger work area and, in many instances, higher load capacities, making them ideal for applications requiring more workspace and more lifting capacity.
To determine the nominees for the 2018 Highest Retained Value Awards, EquipmentWatch analysts considered more than 12,000 models with up to 20 model years of values. To learn more about the winning models and program methodology, visit the EquipmentWatch website.

Speedy has made the acquisition as part of a drive to expand their powered access capabilities in the UK market.
Prolift’s former MD, Andy Pearson, will continue to lead the business as Powered Access South West Regional Director.
Andy said: “This is a very exciting time for the company, giving us a great opportunity to continue our growth as part of the Speedy group.

Platform Sales & Hire Ltd Acquired by Speedy Asset Services Ltd
Platform Sales and Hire are pleased to announce that we have been acquired by major rental company Speedy Asset Services Ltd. The acquisition has been made to expand Speedy’s powered access capabilities in the UK market. The previous owners Chris Caney and Duncan Howard are very excited about the future and both remain with the company.
Chris Caney comments “It’s a very exciting time for the company, and very much business as usual.”
We would like to thank both our customers and suppliers for their support over the last 15 years, and we look forward to continuing with them in the future.
UK Access Company Platform Sales & Hire have just completed and supplied their latest Flying Carpet VM26S truck-mounted scissor lift. This unit is slightly different from the usual version as the access platform is mounted on an IVECO chassis which is fitted with a crew cab. The larger cab allows for up to 7 engineers to be transported out to the aircraft ramp together, eliminating the need for extra vehicles on the airport apron, which can be congested at times when an aircraft needs a quick turnaround.
The unit will be working at Manchester Airport and has been supplied to one of the World’s largest suppliers of aircraft Ground support equipment.
The Flying Carpet is in use with airlines all over the World and has continued to be popular since its first introduction in 2006. It continues to be manufactured at PS&H’s engineering division in Milton Keynes. The picture shows Platform Sales & Hire directors Chris Caney and Duncan Howard.
