How long does a battery last on an Electric manlift
You should get a full day's use from an electric scissor lift or self-propelled boom. Generally, you will get around 2-3 hours of continuous use. However this is prolonged by charging on breaks and turning the equipment off once in position. We run full IPAF training courses daily and recommend you attend one of our courses to ensure you are using our equipment safely and efficiently.
