Productive Workers Feel Safe on the Job

07/23/2019

There's a direct correlation between how productive workers are and how safe they feel on the jobsite. Working at height is often accompanied by a natural sense of fear. That fear is compounded by unexpected platform movements, scissor sway, or the lack of fall protection. Minimizing jobsite hazards and providing operators with safe equipment solutions can inspire confidence and boost productivity to new heights.

Hy-Brid Lifts Zero-Turn Series mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) are designed and manufactured to empower operators and encourage confidence while working at height. So, what makes our Zero-Turn Series scissor lifts feel safer than mast style lifts?

Zero Turn lifts offer increased safety and security for working at height

Zero Turn lifts have working heights up to 22 feet, with a spacious platform for a worker and equipment

The all-new ZT-1630 at its maximum working height of 22 ft.

Large Work Platform

Zero-Turn Series lifts give operators more platform space to perform tasks without having to reposition the entire MEWP. These work platforms also include a built-in tool holder and parts tray, keeping equipment and parts within easy reach, off the deck, and out of the way.

If more space is needed, all Zero-Turn Series aerial work platforms offer an EZ-Glide slide out extension deck. This feature provides an additional 30 in of work space and requires almost no force to slide into place. The EZ-Glide slide out extension deck enables operators to slide out the platform extension in one fluid motion while keeping both feet firmly on the deck, providing maximum balance and reducing unnecessary movements.

Minimal Sway Scissor Stack

Why purchase a MEWP if it can't deliver steady performance? Hy-Brid Lifts scissor stacks have robust, all-metal construction that not only provides strength and limited sway, but also a smooth and controlled lift action. Four points of contact create a well-balanced work platform over mast style lifts that only have one point of contact.

Subtle Movement

Hy-Brid Lifts Zero-Turn Series scissor lifts have unique fully proportional controls that allow operators to slowly "creep" forward while at height. This eliminates unwanted jerky movement and enables operator confidence, maneuverability, and control at height.
