Genie’s Lift Tools Spill Guard hydraulic oil containment system has now been rolled out globally as a factory-fit option.

Available on Genie E-Drive scissor lifts from 14ft (4.3m) to 40ft (12m), the system works with standard, square pads that do not require time-consuming cutting or fitting.

A one-time factory installation of the easy-access, swing-out and bolt-in trays, which do not use or rely on magnets to stay secured, delivers a durable, economical solution, says the manufacturer, that will not vibrate during transport and protects against hydraulic leaks on the jobsite, which can be costly or cause environmental issues when they occur.

“An increasing number of jobsites, such as data-centers and environmentally sensitive areas, require a hydraulic oil containment system,” said Christian Dube, Genie product manager. “Spill Guard is an economical solution that fulfills these requirements and mitigates the risk of costly clean-ups on finished floors.”

 Although hydraulic leaks are rare on Genie E-Drive machines, says Genie, the environmental impact is further reduced with the Spill Guard system, which covers the single point of possible leakage.
