The new Genie GR-26J Runabout self-propelled vertical mast with jib has been released for the ANSI and CSA markets. This unit is the latest in the Genie vertical lift family of products and is ideal for locations where outreach is required in a confined space. Production has already begun, and the product is available for purchase in the ANSI and CSA markets.
“The Genie GR-26J brings new outreach capability to our best-selling Runabout product line with a class-leading lightweight design,” said Chad Hislop, product manager, Terex Aerial Work Platforms. “The rotating turntable combined with an outreaching jib allows operators to easily get up and over obstacles to access areas that were previously out of reach.”
The new vertical lift provides users with a wide range of motion for accomplishing jobsite applications ranging from warehousing to maintenance. The unit offers an “up-and-over” maximum clearance of 21'5", a maximum working height of 31'9", and a maximum working horizontal reach of 10'1". The 140° jib range of motion and 350° non-continuous hydraulic turntable rotation enable the unit to deliver precise positioning of loads. Offering the lowest weight in its class of 6,250 lbs., the GR-26J is particularly useful where floor loading may be a concern.
The electric drive motors make for smooth operation at high and low speeds. In addition, the Genie GR-26J also features 25 percent gradeability and a full height drive function for two occupants, both indoor and outdoor.
“The introduction of the GR-26J continues to expand the offerings of the Runabout product line,” said Hislop. “This is another example of Genie bringing innovative solutions to our customers to help increase their productivity for a variety of applications.”
Lift & Access is part of the Catalyst Communications Network publication family.
