Focus on productivity Several features on the JLG 530LRT are geared at improving productivity. It drives up productivity by going higher and handling more workers and materials in one shot. “The 530LRT, out of all the JLG scissors, takes you to the highest working level with a working height of 18,15 m. You will also get more people and materials to the work area with a massive 680 kg platform capacity and an optional 7,2 m MegaDeck extension,” says Fleming. This feature is beneficial for applications such as painting where you can have approximately three people, together with

the necessary material, working at height. The 530LRT can also drive at a height of 9,75 m. “As soon as you need to change position from full height, you will only have to come down to 9,75 m and the machine can drive in that position without any need to go any further down. This translates into massive productivity gains,” says Fleming. For increased productivity, the machine also comes with a big platform gate that swings open for easy loading of materials. Unlike the previous models, you don’t have to load material over the top of the scissor rails; the whole gate opens up, and this is said to be an industry first. The new 530LRT also comes with a die- sel-low indicator which warns the opera- tor when the fuel is running low, avoiding unnecessary stoppages due to the machine running out of fuel. This prevents down-

time for the customer and enhances pro- ductivity. Durability and ease of service “With the JLG 530LRT in your fleet, you have a rough terrain scissor lift that not only gives you more height and capacity,
