Product Details

The Genie GL4 is the smallest lift in the Genie lineup, but it still has a great lifting capacity. Its compact size allows it to be easily moved around, which is ideal for tight spots. The GL4 Standard can lift up to 227 kg, which is impressive for something this portable. The standard forks can be flipped up, increasing the lifting height to 1.80m from 1.26m.

Because of its size and strength combination, the GL4 Standard works well in a lot of different environments, whether you're installing something overhead, restocking shelves, unloading materials, or doing maintenance work.

Setup doesn’t take long at all, as this material lift can be set by one person in seconds with no tools required. Like all Genie lifts, the GL4 is made to last. It’s solid and dependable, even with frequent use. If you have various lifting requirements, there is a range of attachments that can be easily fitted, such as a load platform, a boom attachment, or a ladder for better reach. It’s a simple machine, but you can adapt it in ways that really extend its usefulness.
