INDOOR ELECTRIC SCISSOR

Also known as slab scissor.

BENEFITS- Electric power is ideal for indoor jobs. Many models available in widths of less than 34 inches so they can go through a standard doorway. Generally have a tight turning radius to better maneuver in tight

buildings.

DRAWBACKS- Are generally only useful on blacktop, concrete, or other smooth flat surface. Have smooth tires and very little ground clearance.

ROUGH TERRAIN SCISSOR

Mainly for outdoor use.

BENEFITS- Most RT scissors get around a jobsite well because of their rather large tires and relatively low weights. They also have large deck sizes and almost all are equipped with four wheel drive. Capacities on RT scissors are relatively high at 1000-1750 pounds.

DRAWBACKS- Large platform size is at times too big for certain work sites. Only available in gasoline/propane and diesel power and are therefore not possible to use in very enclosed settings.
