The Genie S85 Boom-lift – For Giant-Sized Access
The Genie S85 is a massive machine well suited for heavy industry and commercial applications. This machine dwarfs its little brother – the Genie S45T in terms of size and reach. This machine is used commonly on commercial maintenance and repair jobs where workers need to get up to incredible heights.
Genie boom-lifts are an industry standard and are favored by tradespeople all over the continent and the globe. They are known to be easier to operate, ruggedly reliable and can be found on just about any job site where access is an issue.
These machines will require ample storage room, and as such, they are better suited to large sites.
While they may not be the most maneuverable machine, they make up for it in reach. In this article, we take a look at some of the main specifications of this machine, and how they
translate into working conditions. Let’s have a look.

Incredible Reach Well-Suited to Heavy Commercial and Industrial Needs
The big story with the Genie S85 is the reach, bar none. This machine is perfect for jobs with a lot of space where a lot of height is required. The S85 Genie lift staggeringly can reach just under 85 feet in the air. That is a lot of reach.
It is particularly useful for trades like ironworkers, glaziers and cladders who all need to get way up to the exterior of a building to perform their work.
These machines bring an added value by providing access to the better part of 100 feet without the need for fall arrest systems, increasing productivity and safety on your job.

You’re Going to Need a Lot of Breathing Room
With a turning radius of 21’ you are going to want to make sure that you have planned the job accordingly. These machines do sacrifice a bit of their maneuverability to gain so much height and reach.
As with any boom-lift machines are designed to using their reach to solve access issues, rather than agility. Trained operators will know how to position these lifts in order to use the boom for positioning rather than drive. It isn’t uncommon to see these machines sit mostly stationary on a site except for the boom.
