34ft NIFTY HR12 4X4 (BI-ENERGY) ELECTRIC KNUCKLE BOOM

The Nifty HR12 4x4 Bi-Energy is a compact articulating knuckle boom lift delivering a 12.2 m (40 ft) working height and 10.2 m (34 ft) platform height, with a 6.1 m horizontal reach and 200 kg platform capacity. The bi-energy system combines a diesel engine for outdoor terrain work with zero-emission electric drive for indoor use, making it one of the most versatile machines in this height class. Its 4x4 drive and compact footprint allow access through standard doorways and across soft or uneven ground.

What sets the HR12 apart from comparable 12 m boom lifts is its exceptionally tight turning circle and narrow stowed width, allowing operators to reposition quickly in congested work zones without disassembling access routes. The articulating boom geometry provides excellent up-and-over capability, useful when obstructions like rooflines, awnings, or structural steel sit between the machine and the work face. The bi-energy powertrain avoids the need to hire separate indoor and outdoor machines for split-site projects.

In the Geelong region, the HR12 is a popular choice for commercial fit-outs, industrial maintenance, and external building work where a scissor lift cannot reach around obstacles and a larger boom would be impractical. It suits warehouses, retail centres, school maintenance, and aged care facilities that require both indoor and outdoor access within a single hire.
