How Do I Know if a Used Genie Telehandler is Any Good?

There are a couple aspects to consider when determining if a used Genie telehandler is any good. First, it would be wise to compare like models online to see pricing. Low prices may indicate lower quality equipment. Next, considering years and hours of use is important. Additionally, reviewing inspection reports is a good way to see the history of maintenance and repairs. Alex Birtalan, from FleetNow, stresses the importance of assessing tire condition. “Check the tires. Is the tread above 25% on each one?”, says Diamond. Uneven ware on tires could indicate misalignment or other issues.
