Overview

The Genie S80XC is part of Genie’s Xtra Capacity line—purpose-built to handle heavier loads without compromising reach or stability. Contractors value the S80XC for its 80' platform height (86' working height) and its elevated capacity rating. The 1000 lb dual-capacity envelope (with 660 lb unrestricted) allows crews to stage additional tools, materials, and two workers safely in the platform, which directly translates into fewer up-and-down cycles and faster task completion. Power comes from a proven Deutz diesel engine, and the 4WD drivetrain pairs with rough terrain tires for confident mobility across uneven surfaces. The 8' platform provides extra elbow room for two-person work, longer materials, or service tooling at height. With just 945 hours, this machine reflects moderate prior use and is positioned to deliver many more years of reliable service.

Condition

NLEQ carefully tests and inspects each machine before it is offered for sale, and this 2018 Genie S80XC is no exception. The unit has 945 operating hours, which is indicative of controlled prior use for its age. All core functions—engine start-up, drive, steer, lift, telescope, and platform controls—are verified during inspection. Expect normal cosmetic wear consistent with a working straight boom lift, with the emphasis placed on safe operation, hydraulic responsiveness, and reliable control function. As with every NLEQ listing, the objective is to deliver a job-ready machine with accurate, transparent representation so you can buy with confidence.

Advantages

• Deutz diesel reliability: Deutz engines are widely respected in heavy equipment for durability, fuel efficiency, and serviceability. That means dependable cold starts, consistent torque for hydraulic functions, and long service life with routine maintenance.
• 4WD traction: True four-wheel drive gives the S80XC the traction it needs to traverse uneven or soft ground. For work on new construction sites, industrial facilities, or utility corridors, 4WD helps you reach set-up points with fewer delays.
• Rough terrain tires: Purpose-built tires increase ground clearance and improve grip across dirt, gravel, and partially improved surfaces, helping reduce spin and rutting while maintaining a stable platform for safe elevation.
• 8' platform: The wider 8-foot basket provides more working space for personnel, materials, and tools. This reduces congestion at height, allows more ergonomic positioning, and can minimize platform repositioning during long runs of façade or steel work.
• 80' platform height and 86' working height: The S80XC reaches into the 80-foot class, ideal for multi-story exterior work, steel erection, signage, and plant maintenance. The 86' working height gives operators the reach envelope needed for a broad range of tasks.
• 1000 lb capacity (660 lb unrestricted): The Xtra Capacity design expands what you can safely carry to the work area. With 1000 lb capacity available in the appropriate portion of the work envelope, crews can lift heavier tools and materials to height; the 660 lb unrestricted rating provides excellent flexibility across a wider range of boom positions.
• Genie XC design: Genie’s XC engineering integrates refined load-sense systems and structural enhancements so the machine maintains stable, compliant performance under higher loads.
• Low-hour 2018 machine: With 945 hours, this S80XC has seen measured use. As a 2018 model, it benefits from modern design refinements and component updates found in later-generation boom lifts.
• Diesel efficiency and torque: Diesel power delivers strong, steady torque for smooth boom functions under load, while offering economical fuel consumption compared to many gasoline alternatives.
• Jobsite productivity: Greater capacity, a larger platform, and confident off-road mobility combine to reduce cycle time, limit repositioning, and keep crews productive throughout the shift.

Applications

The used Genie S80XC straight boom lift is built for elevated work where height, outreach, and capacity must come together. Its 80' platform height and 1000 lb rating make it a strong choice for many trades and facility types. Typical applications include:

• Steel erection and structural work: Lift personnel, welders, and heavy tools to beams and connections without overtaxing the platform.
• Commercial and industrial construction: Access rooflines, parapets, tilt-wall panels, and high façades with ample space for materials and crews.
• Plant maintenance and shutdowns: Tackle elevated valves, pipe racks, conveyors, and mezzanines with the capacity to bring up parts and tooling in one trip.
• Signage and lighting: Install or service signs, mast lights, and stadium lighting where height and stable positioning are critical.
• Energy and utilities: Ideal for substations, wind support tasks at lower elevations, and utility infrastructure where rough terrain access is common.
• Exterior cleaning and painting: The 8' platform supports two workers plus supplies for long runs of cladding, windows, or coatings at height.

Ownership Value

Owning a Genie S80XC provides tangible, long-term value. Genie’s broad parts availability and service documentation simplify upkeep, while the Deutz diesel engine is recognized for longevity and straightforward maintenance. The 4WD system and rough terrain tires help limit site delays, reducing costly downtime. With a larger platform and higher capacity, crews can carry more materials and tools in a single lift, cutting reposition cycles and improving overall job throughput. For owners who need to support multiple project types, the 80' platform height and 86' working height extend your operational range, allowing you to bid and execute taller work without renting supplemental machines. Combined with the relatively low 945 hours for a 2018 unit, this S80XC is positioned to deliver favorable total cost of ownership and strong resale appeal.

The 80' platform height and 86' working height give you the vertical reach to handle multi-story and industrial work, while the 1000 lb capacity (with 660 lb unrestricted) reflects the core advantage of Genie’s XC line—more payload with the control and stability crews expect.
