Advantages

• Diesel power for demanding jobs: Diesel engines deliver strong torque and steady performance under load, which is ideal for outdoor sites, prolonged duty cycles, and environments where consistent power is a must. For contractors who need reliable performance in a wide range of conditions, diesel provides the staying power to keep work moving.
• 8' platform supports productivity: A larger platform gives operators room for personnel, tools, and materials. The added space helps reduce trips up and down, minimizes repositioning, and allows teams to stage parts at height, improving overall efficiency on tasks like steel erection, façade work, and mechanical installations.
• Jib for precise placement: The jib enhances final positioning without moving the entire boom, letting operators finesse their approach to the work area. That translates into faster alignment around obstacles, improved accuracy for installation or maintenance tasks, and a smoother workflow when working near structures or equipment.
• 65' platform height and 71' working height: With 65' of platform height, crews can reach elevated work zones across multi-story structures, tall equipment, or high façades. The 71' working height extends your practical reach, enabling safe access for inspection, repair, or installation while maintaining stable positioning.
• Straight boom efficiency: Straight boom lifts are prized for speed and simplicity. They move quickly from ground to height, provide predictable control, and minimize setup time. This means more productive hours in the air and fewer interruptions related to repositioning or boom articulation.
• Trusted Genie design: Genie’s reputation is built on robust components and field-proven designs. That translates to fewer surprises on the job, readily available parts, and strong long-term support—key considerations for any owner looking to maximize uptime.

Applications

The Genie S65 TRAX Straight Boom Lift is a versatile performer across industries where reliable reach and stable positioning are mission-critical. Construction managers appreciate the straightforward operation for framing, siding, roofing access, and general exterior trades. Steel erectors use the jib and reach to align connections and place components. Industrial plants rely on this class of lift for equipment access, pipe runs, and ductwork, while facilities teams value it for façade maintenance, signage, lighting, and roofing repairs.

Utilities and infrastructure crews benefit from the height and control when servicing elevated fixtures, bridges, or stations. Stadiums, airports, and distribution centers often deploy a 65' platform height lift for upgrades, audits, and regular maintenance tasks. Because this unit is diesel-powered, it excels in outdoor or well-ventilated environments, offering dependable performance for extended shifts and changing site conditions. Wherever the work requires confident reach, the Genie S65 TRAX delivers a practical balance of height, stability, and operator control.

Ownership Value

Value isn’t just about purchase price—it’s about the complete ownership experience. With Genie, you gain access to a deep ecosystem of service knowledge, parts, and support. The S65 TRAX’s straightforward design makes routine maintenance approachable, helping keep service costs predictable. A 2017 model with 3,390 hours represents a compelling mix of modern design and proven service life, giving owners the longevity they need with the reliability they expect.

From a utilization standpoint, the combination of a 65' platform height and jib ensures broad usefulness across a wide range of projects, which is especially important for rental houses and contractors who need to keep equipment generating revenue. The 8' platform supports multi-person tasks at height and allows more to be accomplished per setup. Diesel power underscores the machine’s readiness for continuous field use, while Genie’s brand strength helps maintain resale value when it’s time to rotate the fleet.
