MEC’s New 3232SE Slab Scissors Works at 38 Feet and Drives at Full Height
MEC Aerial Work Platforms launches the MEC 3232SE. The new slab scissor lift is a groundbreaking addition to the company product lineup, leading the change with the ability to drive at full height – a first in this machine class, MEC said. The MEC 3232SE can drive at full height and eliminates the outrigger levelling system.
Other key standard features and benefits of the MEC 3232SE include a maximum working height of 38 feet, on a chassis 32 inches wide with a platform capacity of 550 pounds. The machine is equipped with an efficient AC electric drive system and delivers more duty cycles from each battery charge, thereby reducing emissions and jobsite power demand. AGM batteries and MEC’s patented Leak Containment System are standard.
“Driving at full height is a bedrock requirement and expectation of any self-propelled mobile elevating work platform,” said Gary Crook, vice president of engineering. “Driving at full height is the better solution that MEC brought to this category.”
MEC Aerial Work Platforms is a manufacturer of mobile elevating work platforms in Kerman, Calif.
