Hird Product of The Month – Genie GS-4047 Electric Scissor Lift

If you need to get up high to work but want to flexibility of using a scissor lift that is both compact and highly manoeuvrable, we suggest you select the Genie GS-4047 from our scissor lift hire fleet.

We’re featuring this powered access platform as our Product of The Month for December, because it has impressive performance which is attracting attention from a lot of our powered access hire customers.

Tall but slinky slim

With the Genie GS-4047 electric scissor lift, our customers can reach up to 13.7m in working height (45 ft) yet the machine is just 1.19m wide, and when stowed, with guard rails lowered, its height is just 1.88 metres. So it can be easily driven through a set of standard double doors.

This makes it ideal for working in confined spaces, whether that be a busy warehouse, or a new-build or renovation internal fit out project, where space is at a premium. Office and retail environments are also ideal for this particular machine.

Impressive productivity

The GS-4047 scissor lift has long-life batteries which allows it to be put through its paces during a full day’s work on just one charge. It can take on 25% gradients to there are not many places that are off limits.

Yet its powerful and responsive motors make it quick and easy to move into position. It can reach maximum working height in just 70 seconds.


This powered access platform has a 0.9m extension deck and can carry up to 350kg in weight, so there is plenty of room and capacity for multiple operatives plus their tools and equipment.

As an electric scissor lift it is ideal for working indoors – it is a zero emissions and low noise machine – and, of course, it has non-marking tyres.

Work at height with confidence

This scissor lift hire option from Hird also makes sense because the Genie GS-4047 is designed to let you get on with the job at hand.

Its front-wheel drive and zero inside turning radius makes these scissor lifts easy to drive, with excellent manoeuvrability in tight spaces and narrow aisles.

It can be driven at full height as well. Despite its narrow design, its exceptional stability means operatives have full confidence when operating at height.

The GS-4047 scissor lift has four-wheel braking, and a clever front wheel hydraulic dynamic braking system, making the machine highly responsive.


It also has Genie’s SmartLink control system which gives operators the choice of two lift speeds to match the work environment and application.  The joystick is used for drive and steer only, making it very simple to use.
