Advantages

• 150' Platform Height and 156' Working Height: Reach elevated work areas others cannot. This vertical capability reduces the need for scaffolding, swing stages, or multi-lift setups, simplifying logistics and improving schedule control.
• Diesel Power: Diesel engines deliver strong torque and sustained duty cycles for tough sites and long days. Refueling is straightforward, and diesel power is well-suited for large projects and outdoor use.
• 8' Platform: The spacious 8' platform supports efficient teamwork and tool staging at height. More room means fewer trips to the ground to swap materials, improving throughput and productivity.
• Jib for Precise Positioning: The jib makes fine adjustments at elevation easier, helping operators get exactly where they need to be around steel, concrete forms, cladding, MEP systems, or signage—often without moving the base machine.
• Rough Terrain Tires: Purpose-built for uneven ground, rough terrain tires help the Genie SX150 traverse construction sites and industrial yards with improved traction and stability.
• Straight Boom Efficiency: A straight boom lift provides fast, direct elevation and straightforward controls for efficient point-to-point access. This translates into time savings and predictable operation on busy jobs.
• Genie Build Quality: Genie is a respected name in aerial work platforms, and the SX150 is engineered for heavy-duty performance and durability.
• Low Hours for the Year: With 1145 hours on a 2016 machine, this unit offers a favorable balance of age and utilization for buyers seeking long-term service life.

Applications

With its combination of diesel power, 150' platform height, 156' working height, 8' platform, rough terrain tires, and a jib, the Genie SX150 is a natural fit for high-elevation work across many industries. From construction to maintenance, this straight boom lift allows teams to access high, hard-to-reach areas quickly and safely.

• Commercial and Industrial Construction: Structural steel erection, façade work, glazing preparation, exterior cladding, and roofing tasks that require consistent high-reach access.
• Infrastructure and Public Works: Bridge inspections, elevated lighting, traffic infrastructure, and high signage installation and maintenance.
• Energy and Utilities: Work at height on plants, substations, stacks, and tall structures that require reliable, high-reaching access equipment.
• Facilities and Maintenance: Large campus or plant maintenance, including inspection and repair of high roofs, ventilation, and exterior systems.
• Event and Stadium Work: Access for lighting, rigging, and large venue maintenance where vertical reach and stable positioning are critical.

In each of these scenarios, the Genie SX150’s straight boom design offers fast up-and-over access, while the jib provides the control needed for precise alignment. The 8' platform accommodates multiple technicians and tools, and the diesel engine supports long, continuous shifts on expansive sites.

Ownership Value

Investing in a used Genie SX150 straight boom lift is a strategic way to expand capabilities without the premium of new equipment. The extended reach reduces reliance on alternative access methods, consolidates equipment needs, and helps keep critical tasks on schedule. Diesel power is widely supported, making fueling practical across most jobsites, and Genie’s reputation for durable aerial platforms supports long-term value.

Operational efficiency comes from the combination of vertical reach and platform workspace. The 8' platform gives crews room to work, minimizing productivity losses from frequent platform resets. The jib empowers final positioning without moving the base machine, reducing ground traffic and coordination demands. Rough terrain tires further support access by helping the SX150 move where it’s needed without extensive site prep.

For owners, these advantages translate into higher utilization and a quicker path to ROI. Fleet managers appreciate the simplicity and capability of a straight boom lift for diverse, high-elevation work, and operators value consistent performance and intuitive controls. When sourced from NLEQ, with a thorough inspection and transparent details, buyers gain confidence in the equipment’s readiness for the next project.
