JLG Scissor Lifts: Models, Specs and Prices

Last updated: October 2026

JLG is one of the two biggest scissor lift brands in North America, and its electric slab and rough terrain scissors fill rental fleets across the country. The lineup runs from 13 ft micro scissors to 53 ft rough terrain lifts, and older models such as the 1930ES and 2632ES are some of the most common used scissor lifts you can buy.

This guide covers the current JLG scissor lift lineup and specs, what the older model names mean, how JLG compares to Genie, new and used prices, and what to check before you buy a used JLG scissor lift.

JLG Industries, founded in 1969 in McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania, and now part of Oshkosh Corporation, sells four scissor lift series in North America:

• Micro-sized (M) series: the ES1330M, ES1530M, ES1930M and ES2632M are 30 to 32 in wide electric scissors for tight interiors. The ES1330M and ES1530M were called the ES1330L and ES1530L until 2025.
• ES series: the ES1932, ES2632, ES2646, ES3246 and ES4046 are electric slab scissor lifts for indoor and outdoor work on firm, level ground.
• RT series: 69 in wide RT2669, RT3369, RT4069 and RT4769 models, plus the large-platform RT3394, RT4394 and RT5394, with Kubota diesel or dual-fuel engines for rough construction sites.
• ERT series: battery-electric versions of the 69 in rough terrain models (ERT2669, ERT3369, ERT4069 and ERT4769) with 48-volt AC electric drive.

Since 2020, JLG model names start with the series letters, followed by the platform height in feet and the width in inches. An ES2632, for example, is an ES series lift with a 26 ft class platform height and a 32 in wide chassis. JLG’s hydraulic-drive R series (R1932, R2632, R3246, R4045) and the all-electric DaVinci AE1932 are no longer part of the North American lineup, but both are still available used.

The table below lists current JLG micro and ES series scissor lifts, plus the DaVinci AE1932. Specs are from JLG’s North American spec sheets; JLG publishes platform height only, so working heights use the standard platform height plus 6 ft.

Most of these models drive at full height. A few outdoor limits are worth knowing: the ES2632 is limited to 21 ft and 275 lb outdoors, the ES1530M to 10 ft outdoors, and the ES4046 to 28 ft 8.5 in outdoors; the ES1930M drives up to 15 ft. The ES2632M was introduced in 2026, and its weight is from dealer listings until JLG publishes a spec sheet. JLG has stopped producing the DaVinci AE1932, its all-electric scissor lift with no hydraulic oil.

JLG’s 69 in wide rough terrain scissors come in two versions: RT models with a Kubota diesel or dual-fuel engine and four-wheel drive, and ERT models with a 48-volt battery pack and AC electric drive for quiet, emission-free work. The 94 series models have larger platforms and up to 2,250 lb of capacity.

The 69 in models drive at full height and are rated for indoor and outdoor use. The ERT models offer an optional generator range extender for long shifts away from a charger. Browse all JLG rough terrain scissor lifts, or see our rough terrain scissor lift buyer’s guide to compare brands.

Before 2020, JLG put the series letters at the end of model names (2632ES instead of ES2632). Many of the JLG scissor lifts on the used market use the older names. Here is how they line up with the current lineup:

These matches are based on size and type; JLG has not published an official replacement list. Our JLG 1930ES review covers the most common older model in detail.

• Tight interiors and finished floors: the ES1330M, ES1530M and ES1930M micros are light, 30 in wide and easy to move between rooms and floors.
• General indoor work up to about 25 ft: the ES1932, or a used 1930ES, is the standard 19 ft scissor lift in most rental fleets.
• 26 ft jobs: the 32 in wide ES2632 fits through doorways, while the 46 in wide ES2646 carries up to 1,200 lb and two workers with more materials.
• 32 to 40 ft on a slab: the ES3246 and ES4046 reach 38 and 45 ft of working height with 705 to 770 lb of capacity.
• Construction sites: pick an RT model for rough ground and long days away from power, an ERT model for quiet, emission-free work indoors and out, or a 94 series lift for big crews and heavy material.

JLG ES series scissor lifts use electric drive motors instead of hydraulic drive, which cuts the number of hydraulic hoses and leak points. Units built before late 2024 use DC drive motors; since September 2024, AC drive motors have been standard across the ES line. The older R series used hydraulic drive, so check those units carefully for leaks.

• Flooded lead-acid: four 6-volt batteries with a 27-amp charger are standard on ES models. Plan on an overnight charge.
• Lithium and Lithium+: optional lithium-ion packs added in 2024. JLG says they can fully charge in as little as 2.5 hours with the optional high-capacity charger, and Lithium+ adds a second pack for longer shifts.
• Micro models: two 12-volt batteries, with a lithium-ion option.
• DaVinci AE1932: a single 24-volt lithium-ion pack that recharges in about 3.5 hours and regenerates power as the platform lowers.
• ERT models: eight 6-volt batteries at 48 volts, with regenerative braking and an optional generator range extender.

Battery condition has a big effect on a used lift’s value. See our guide to common electric scissor lift problems for what to check.

JLG and Genie build closely matched slab scissor lineups. Here is how their most popular models compare:

Platform heights, weights and capacities are listed in that order. The JLG ES2646 stands out with 1,200 lb of capacity, while Genie’s models reach slightly higher in the 19 and 26 ft classes. For most buyers, the specific model, its condition and local parts and service support matter more than the brand. See our Genie scissor lift guide and Genie GS-2632 guide for more on the Genie side.

• Full lineup from 13 ft micros to 53 ft rough terrain lifts
• ES2646 offers 1,200 lb of capacity in a 26 ft slab lift
• Electric drive on ES models means fewer hydraulic hoses
• Rough terrain models come with diesel, dual-fuel or battery-electric power
• Large used supply keeps prices low and parts easy to find

• The renamed models and older names can make listings confusing
• Many used units are former rental machines with heavy use
• Older R series units use hydraulic drive with more hoses to maintain
• The DaVinci AE1932 is out of production, so plan for parts and battery costs
• Flooded lead-acid batteries need regular watering

Used 19 ft JLG scissor lifts are among the least expensive aerial lifts on the market, and older 26 and 32 ft slab models usually sell for $6,000 to $10,000. New ES models run about $15,000 to $33,000, and new rough terrain models cost $48,000 to $63,000 or more.

Used prices are FleetNow asking prices from up to the first 40 listings on each model page in October 2026. New prices are advertised dealer prices for 2025 and 2026 units; the RT3369 price is for a four-wheel drive, dual-fuel unit with outriggers. Prices change often, so check current JLG scissor lift listings.

What drives the price of a used JLG scissor lift:

• Model generation: current ES models with load sense sell for more than older ES and R series units.
• Batteries: a worn battery pack can cost several hundred dollars or more to replace.
• Hours and condition: clean decks and rails, no leaks and good tires support a higher price.
• Records: a current annual inspection and service history add value.

• Model name and year: confirm whether it is an older ES, R series or current ES model, and whether it was built to the 2020 ANSI A92.20 standards with platform load sensing.
• Fault codes: ask the seller to read the fault log on the control display or with JLG’s Analyzer tool, and check the ClearSky telematics history if equipped.
• Load sense: on newer units, ask for the last calibration record. A load sense fault locks out lifting.
• Batteries and charger: check battery age, water level, corrosion and voltage under load, and make sure the charger completes a full cycle.
• Drive motors and brakes: test drive and steering stowed and raised, and make sure the brakes hold on a ramp. Older ES units have DC motors with brushes that wear.
• Pothole guards and tilt alarm: the guards should deploy as the platform rises, and the tilt alarm should stay quiet on level ground.
• Hydraulics: look for leaks at the lift cylinder, hoses and fittings, especially on hydraulic-drive R series units, and make sure the platform holds height.
• Scissor arms and chassis: check pins and bushings for wear and look for cracked welds, bent arms and damaged rails.
• Rough terrain models: check the engine or battery pack, four-wheel drive, outriggers and tires.
• Records: ask for the annual inspection, service history and serial number so a JLG dealer can check for open safety bulletins.
