The Skyjack XStep Adds More Height to Its Micro Scissor Line
Linamar Corporation’s Skyjack division recently launched the micro XStep, the latest product in its Accessoryzers line. This product is compatible with Skyjack’s newest line of scissors — the SJ3213 micro and SJ3219 micro. The micro XStep enables operators to gain additional work height in tight spaces while maximizing productivity. Like the original XStep, Skyjack introduced the micro XStep to empower operators working in hard-to-reach places. This includes apps such as piping, ceiling work and between HVAC units.
“Building off the success of both the original XStep and the Mighty Micro line we’re proud to introduce the micro XStep,” shared Corey Connolly, Senior Product Manager, Skyjack. “Our micro XStep provides a solid, steady raised platform for ease of access in confined spaces while also being easily stowed or removed – allowing it to move from one machine to another as opposed to other systems on the market where the system is permanent and has to be ordered per machine.”
Much like the original Skyjack XStep, the micro version is mounted on the mid-rail of the scissor lift. It creates an additional 19 in. of working height. The top railing design and height provide operators with the same degree of security as a conventional platform. The designers created it specifically to pair with the new micro line, offering 250 lbs of capacity.
Like the SJ3213 micro and the SJ3219 micro, the micro XStep will be available in North America.
