Overview
The Skyjack SJIII 3226 reaches a 7.92 m platform height (9.75 m working height) on a 0.81 m wide chassis: 26ft of reach that still fits through a standard doorway. The 0.71 x 2.13 m platform carries 227 kg overall, with a 0.91 m roll-out extension deck rated to 113 kg. Stows to 1.79 m with the rails down. 1,876 kg, 30% gradeability, 1.27 m inside turning radius, 250Ah batteries, 110V AC outlet on the platform and a 12.5 m/s wind rating.
Indoor work up to about 9.75 m in buildings with standard doors and corridors: ceiling grid and services, lighting, fire and security devices, painting and fit-out work. The 1.79 m stowed height with rails down gets it under most door heads and into goods lifts, and the platform power outlet saves running a lead up for hand tools.
Examples of the work this machine is hired for around Sydney. They are examples, not records of completed jobs. We check the access route before we confirm the machine.
Ceiling diffusers and duct supports where a restricted shopfront entrance rules out a wider machine. Measure the clear opening against the 0.81 m chassis, then the turning space inside.
Overhead cable runs above a commercial tenancy reached along a narrow corridor. The corridor matters as much as the ceiling height: confirm turns, thresholds and that the floor takes 1,876 kg.
Ductwork or ceiling installation in a higher tenancy near the Town Centre. Check service corridors and loading dock access with centre management before delivery day.
Getting through the entry and around internal corners is the main issue. Measure the clear dimensions and note overhead obstructions before booking.
Where fixtures restrict movement, plan the lift’s working positions alongside the fit-out sequence so the route stays usable.
Compare the Zoomlion ZS0808AC and Haulotte Compact 8N, or the taller 32ft Genie GS-3232. See the narrow scissor lifts page and choosing a scissor lift for indoor work.

Where it works
Good to confirm: Hard-surface machine on firm level ground only. Overall capacity is 227kg — the SJ4726 is the machine when materials need to go up with the crew. An online listing cannot replace a site assessment, so tell us the job and we will confirm suitability.
Decision panel
Seven questions about this job, answered from this machine's verified specifications. 17 of 18 figures are on file; one is still to confirm with the hire team.
A Confirm mark means the decisive figure is not on this record. Send us the site details and we will answer it before quoting; we never guess a specification.
Specifications
Grouped for quick scanning. A row appears once its figure is verified for this machine; anything not listed here is not yet on the record, and the Fit & access panel above marks it Confirm. The manufacturer spec sheet always takes precedence.
Drawn to scale from this machine's stored specifications. The manufacturer spec sheet (below) governs.
Transport
Swipe
Quoted by suburb, machine and access. We plan the truck, the unloading space and any overhead hazards before the run, tell us about docks, tight driveways and height limits when you book.
Customer pickup has not been confirmed for this machine. Delivery is quoted together with the hire; if you would rather collect, ask the team and they will confirm whether a trailer combination is approved for it.
Logistics
What we need from you, and what we take care of.
Swipe
Quoted by suburb, site access and transport requirements, the machine and the delivery are quoted together for your dates.
Tell us the narrowest gate, doorway or gap the machine must pass through and we will confirm the fit before it is loaded.
Scissor-type EWP. No high-risk work licence required in NSW; EWPA Yellow Card (SL) accepted competency.
Hire runs from delivery or pickup until off-hire is confirmed. Rates are quoted for your dates, suburb and machine together, see our hire terms for responsibilities during the hire.
Send your suburb, your dates and the tightest access width. We will confirm the machine and quote the delivery with it.
Power
Battery electric: charge it at the end of every shift.
Swipe
250Ah
The charger supply for this machine is confirmed with your quote. Tell us what power is available where it will park overnight (and whether it is temporary site power), and we check it matches before delivery.
A full charge from flat takes most of a night. How long a charge lasts on the day depends on battery condition, drive distance, lift cycles and load, so there is no fixed runtime: tell us if the job runs long shifts.
Safety
Every Equip Hire machine is function-tested before it leaves the yard. The operator still checks it before each shift, tick these off as you go.
Swipe
Tag it out and call us on 0472 721 234. Never operate a machine with a known fault, we will repair or swap it.
Ticking here is a memory aid on your phone, nothing is stored. The machine’s own logbook and pre-start check sheet are the record. Based on the manufacturer’s daily check requirements and SafeWork NSW guidance for this kind of equipment.
Site prep
Five minutes of checking here is what keeps a delivery from becoming a return trip.
Swipe
Every gate, corridor and lift on the way to the work area. Handles, hinges, bollards and stored materials all eat clearance.
A ground-bearing slab usually suits it. Suspended slabs, mezzanines and raised floors need the wheel loads checked against the floor rating.
Overhead services, sprinkler heads and light fittings at working height, and an exclusion zone for people below.
Room for the truck to stop and unload safely. Tell us about docks, driveways and height limits when you book.
A live outlet near overnight parking so every day starts on a full charge.
Avoid
The things that most often send a machine back or hold up a job.
Swipe
Measure to the actual task height, then choose the machine. Nothing added “just in case”.
An 820 mm door leaf is not 820 mm of clear opening once the stop and hardware are counted. Measure the gap.
Wheeled machines rut turf and bog in soft ground. Say so when you book: a tracked machine may suit, after the ground is checked.
Shopping centres and managed sites need the paperwork approved before the truck arrives.
Working height is 9.8 m and the platform floor rises to 7.9 m. Working height is the platform height plus about 2 m for a person standing on the platform, which is how hire sizes are normally stated.
It is 0.81 m wide and 2.32 m long when stowed. We look for at least 50 mm of clearance beyond the machine width at each opening. Measure the narrowest point of the whole route, not just the final doorway: gates, door frames, corridors, lift cars and the turn in from a corridor, which needs more room than a straight approach.
Stowed (travel) height is 2.15 m. Check headroom along the route: door heads, roller doors, ducts, sprinklers and ramps.
Rated platform capacity is 227 kg. People, tools and materials all count. The extension deck has its own limit of 113 kg, which applies at the same time as the platform limit.
A scissor lift goes straight up; the extension deck, where fitted, slides out over the front only. To work over an awning, a roof edge or plant, look at articulating boom lifts, which go up and out.
It is built for firm, level, hard surfaces: concrete floors, sealed paving and slabs. It is not for grass, gravel, mud or uneven ground. Check the floor or ground can carry its weight (see below).
Outdoor use is limited: it can work outside only within the conditions in its manual (firm level ground, reduced wind and occupancy where stated), so we confirm those for your site before outdoor work. Electric power means no exhaust indoors, but electric power alone does not make a machine rated for outdoor use.
Gradeability of 30% is the steepest slope it can drive up while stowed. That is not permission to raise the platform on a slope: elevated work needs ground within the manufacturer's tilt limit, and the tilt alarm stops elevation beyond it.
It runs on batteries (250Ah). You need a standard power outlet near where it is parked, and it should be charged at the end of each day. Ask us if your site power is limited or temporary.
Runtime depends on how far it drives, how often it lifts, the load, temperature and battery age, so there is no fixed number of hours. Plan to charge it every night, and tell us if your work involves a lot of driving between work areas.
It weighs about 1,876 kg. Weight alone does not show whether a floor can take it: suspended slabs, mezzanines, pits, pavers and lift cars need their rating checked against the wheel or track loads in the manufacturer's data, by someone able to assess the structure.
Delivery is from our Berkshire Park depot. Delivery is quoted with the machine for your suburb, site access and hire dates. Customer pickup has not been approved for this machine, so plan on delivery.
For delivery, the truck needs a firm, clear area to unload close to the work, and someone on site to sign for the machine.
Transport is quoted separately for your suburb and site. A longer-term rate applies only when the hire runs for its minimum period; a shorter hire is quoted at the rate for its actual length.
No high risk work licence is needed for a scissor lift in NSW. Operators must still be trained and competent for this type of machine and familiarised with this model before use, and many sites ask for an industry card such as the EWPA Yellow Card plus their own induction. SafeWork NSW licence guidance.
The machine, your dates, the site suburb and anything that limits access: the narrowest opening, headroom, ground type and how high the work is. The team confirms availability for your dates and that the machine suits the site, then sends the quote with delivery. Nothing is booked until we confirm.
A hire can be extended. Call or email the team with your hire reference and the new finish date, and earlier is better because the machine may be committed to another job. Extra time is confirmed with you, and the rate for the longer period is confirmed with it: a change to the booking can mean the rate is revised, a minimum hire applies, or the correct rate for the actual hire period is used.
Hire charges run until the machine is properly off-hired with Equip Hire and is available for collection, clean, accessible and safe to collect. To off-hire you contact Equip Hire directly and get an off-hire number or confirmation back. Stopping work, leaving the machine on site, telling another contractor or assuming we know the job is finished does not end the hire. Charges stop at the confirmed off-hire, not on the day the truck happens to arrive, but they can continue if the machine is not accessible or ready when we come for it.

Working height, not platform height
Working height is 9.75 m (about 32 feet); the platform floor reaches 7.92 m (about 26 feet), the figure a size in feet usually names. Working height is what a person can reach standing on the platform, roughly two metres above the platform floor. Check which of the two figures a quote is using.
We check it is free and suits the site. Your name and a mobile or email is enough; the rest is optional.
