Advantages that Matter on the Job

• Electric Power: Electric operation means zero on-site emissions and notably quiet performance. That makes the SJ4740 particularly well-suited for indoor projects, occupied buildings, and environments with air quality or noise restrictions. Electric scissor lifts also typically reduce fuel-related operating costs and can simplify daily service compared to internal combustion equipment.
• 40' Platform Height and 46' Working Height: With 46' of working height, teams can comfortably access elevated tasks such as lighting, electrical and data runs, fire protection, racking, HVAC drops, ceiling work, and signage. The 40' platform height provides a stable base at elevation, helping crews focus on productivity.
• Single Manual Extension Deck: The manual slide-out platform delivers the extra horizontal reach needed to clear obstacles, align precisely with work areas, and reduce repositioning. For operators, that can translate into quicker task completion and less time nudging the machine for inches of alignment.
• Solid Non-Marking Tires: Protect finished floors and sensitive surfaces while maintaining reliable traction on slabs. Non-marking tires help keep facilities clean and professional, reducing cleanup costs and protecting the owner’s relationship with site stakeholders.
• SkyJack Serviceability: SkyJack scissor lifts are known for straightforward design and easy-to-service layouts. Simple diagnostics and widely available parts help minimize downtime and keep maintenance budgets predictable over the life of the machine.

Applications

The SkyJack SJ4740 is a versatile solution for a wide range of interior and slab-based projects. Its electric power, clean non-marking tires, and high reach make it a favorite across commercial, industrial, and institutional sites where uptime and facility care are non-negotiable.

• Warehouses and Distribution Centers: Install and maintain racking, lighting, and overhead utilities without marking the floors. The 46' working height supports work in modern high-bay environments.
• Manufacturing and Industrial Plants: Handle production line modifications, conduit runs, compressed air drops, and mezzanine access while keeping emissions and noise down.
• Retail and Commercial Fit-Outs: Ideal for ceiling grids, sprinklers, signage, and lighting during build-outs or remodels, especially in occupied spaces where cleanliness and quiet matter.
• Institutional Facilities: Hospitals, schools, and data centers benefit from an electric slab scissors lift that protects surfaces, minimizes disruptions, and reaches overhead infrastructure reliably.
• Property Management and Maintenance: Tackle routine maintenance, painting, mechanical servicing, and seasonal upgrades safely and efficiently with an extendable platform that reduces repositioning.
