Scissorlift Refurbishment

At Milo Access Platforms, our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction is reflected in every sale. Recently, a customer approached us through our website, specifically looking for a reliable, used Skyjack scissor lift. After a thorough consultation, we provided a Skyjack SJ3219 Electric Scissor Lift, which underwent a complete refurbishment, leaving it as good as new. This article details the process and benefits of our access platform refurbishment services, with a special focus on the Skyjack SJ3219.

The customer, looking for a cost-effective alternative to a brand-new scissor lift, needed a machine that was both reliable and visually appealing. After considering a few models, they chose the Skyjack SJ3219, a popular scissor lift known for its compact design, durability, and efficient performance. To ensure they received the best value, we recommended a full access platform refurbishment before the sale.

Scissorlift Refurbishment Process

The refurbishment of the Skyjack SJ3219 included a meticulous overhaul to bring it up to both aesthetic and operational standards. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what was involved:

1. Full Repainting in Original Colours
   The scissor lift, originally in a worn condition, was stripped down and repainted in Skyjack’s signature red and grey. This not only enhanced its appearance but also offered an added layer of protection against wear and tear. The attention to detail ensured that the machine looked as good as new.
2. Mechanical and Electrical Overhaul
   We carried out a comprehensive mechanical inspection, replacing any worn-out parts and ensuring all components were in optimal working condition. The electrical systems were checked and serviced to ensure the lift operates safely and efficiently.
3. Safety Inspection and Certification
   Safety is always our priority. Once the refurbishment was complete, the scissor lift underwent a thorough safety inspection and was certified as meeting all necessary safety standards. This provided peace of mind to the customer, knowing that their newly refurbished equipment was ready for use.
4. Final Testing and Quality Assurance
   Before handing over the lift to the customer, our team conducted final testing to ensure everything was functioning smoothly. This included testing the hydraulic systems, platform controls, and load capacity.

Before and After: The Transformation

The transformation of the Skyjack SJ3219 was remarkable. From a tired, well-used machine to a pristine, fully operational scissor lift, the before-and-after images speak for themselves.

• Before Refurbishment:
  The scissor lift showed visible signs of wear, faded paint, and some minor mechanical issues typical of long-term use.

• After Refurbishment:
  Post-refurbishment, the machine looked revitalised. The new paint job in original Skyjack colours, combined with the mechanical and electrical upgrades, restored its functionality and appearance.

Added Value: Maintenance Package

To further enhance the value of the sale, we offered a comprehensive maintenance package alongside the refurbished Skyjack SJ3219. This package ensures regular servicing, reduced downtime, and extended equipment lifespan, ultimately providing long-term savings for the customer.
