Skyjack’s new micro XStep, the latest product in its Accessoryzers line enables operators to gain additional work height in tight work spaces while maximizing productivity. The micro XStep, just like the original XStep, helps operators working in hard-to-reach places such as piping, ceiling work and between HVAC units. The micro XStep is compatible with Skyjack’s newest scissors – the micro SJ3213 and micro SJ3219.

“Building off the success of both the original XStep and the Mighty Micro line, we’re proud to introduce the micro XStep,” said Corey Connolly, senior product manager, Skyjack. “Our micro XStep provides a solid, steady raised platform for ease of access in confined spaces while also being easily stowed or removed, allowing it to move from one machine to another as opposed to other systems on the market where the system is permanent and has to be ordered per machine.”

Much like the original XStep, the micro version is mounted on the mid-rail of the scissor lift and creates an additional 19 inches of working height. The top railing design and height provide operators with the same degree of security as a conventional platform. It has been designed to pair specifically with the new micro line, offering 250 pounds of capacity.

Like the SJ3213 micro and the SJ3219 micro, the micro XStep is available in North America.
