Complete Guide to New Aerial Lifts
Welcome to MH Equipment, your trusted resource for understanding and selecting the right MEWP Equipment, including aerial lifts, for your business needs. Our comprehensive guide provides essential information about the various types of aerial lifts, their features, and best practices for safety and maintenance. Aerial lifts from Genie, Skyjack, and others are versatile and indispensable tools in industries such as construction, warehousing, and maintenance. They provide safe and efficient access to elevated areas, replacing traditional methods like scaffolding and ladders. These platforms are designed to lift limited weights — typically one to two people, along with tools and materials — to various heights.
Types of Aerial Lifts
- Scissor Lifts: Ideal for jobs that require vertical elevation to considerable heights, scissor lifts offer a stable platform and are perfect for maintenance and installation tasks inside buildings.
- Boom Lifts: Known for their flexibility, boom lifts have articulated arms and can reach heights and angles that are not possible with scissor lifts, making them suitable for tasks that require reaching over obstacles.
- Articulating Lifts: With sections that bend, articulating boom lifts allow operators to navigate around obstacles at height. They are ideal for indoor and outdoor work in complex environments.

Key Features of Modern Aerial Lifts
Modern aerial lifts come equipped with advanced safety features such as anti-tip mechanisms, automatic braking systems, and emergency descent functionality. Technological advancements include hybrid power systems that offer longer operation times and reduce emissions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Safety is paramount when operating aerial lifts. Operators must be trained in accordance with OSHA standards, which include proper handling, daily inspections, and recognizing hazards. MH Equipment provides certified training programs to ensure that all operators are proficient in the latest safety practices.

Choosing the Right Aerial Lift
Selecting the right aerial lift involves considering several factors:
- Height and Reach: Determine the maximum height you need to access.
- Environment: Consider the terrain and space constraints. Indoor operations may require electric models to prevent fume emissions, whereas outdoor tasks may benefit from more robust diesel-powered lifts.
- Capacity: Assess the weight capacity you need for personnel, tools, and materials.
