Outstrip RT Series 4WD Rough Terrain Scissor Lifts – 1023RT / 1323RT / 1623RT
The Outstrip RT Series – comprising the 1023RT, 1323RT, and 1623RT – represents the pinnacle of rough terrain scissor lift design, integrating a heavy‑duty 4‑wheel drive (4WD) system with a powerful Kubota V2403 diesel engine. Engineered for the world's harshest outdoor job sites, these 4WD scissor lifts deliver uncompromised traction, stability, and lifting power where ordinary slab‑specific lifts cannot operate. With maximum working heights ranging from 12 to 18 metres and platform capacities up to 1,150 kg (2,535 lbs), the RT series tackles large‑scale construction, bridgeworks, heavy industrial maintenance, and oil & gas applications with ease. The oscillating axle and 0.36 metre ground clearance allow negotiation of mud, gravel, and steep slopes, while full‑height driving capability and automatic leveling outriggers maintain high productivity across the entire shift. With 40% gradeability and massive rough‑terrain tyres, the RT series conquers terrain that stops conventional lifts – making it the ultimate heavy‑duty aerial work platform for demanding outdoor environments.

🔧 Engineered for Extreme Terrain – True 4WD Capability
- 🚜 Full‑time 4‑Wheel Drive – The RT series integrates a robust 4×4 drivetrain that delivers power to all four wheels simultaneously, providing superior traction on soft mud, loose gravel, and steep construction slopes. Combined with an oscillating axle, it keeps all tyres in contact with uneven ground, maximising grip.
- ⛰️ 40% Gradeability & High Ground Clearance – With a class‑leading 40% gradeability (22°) and 0.36 m (14.2 in) ground clearance, the RT series negotiates ramps, site debris, and rough transitions without undercarriage impact — ensuring uninterrupted workflow.
- ⚙️ Kubota V2403 Diesel Power – Powered by the legendary Kubota V2403 diesel engine (36 kW), the RT series delivers reliable, high‑torque performance even in demanding conditions. The engine is paired with a 110L fuel tank for extended operation between refuels, reducing downtime.
- 🛞 Large Rough‑Terrain Tires – Fitted with massive 300×840 mm (approx. 12×33") tyres, these lifts provide excellent flotation and traction. Optional foam‑filled tyres eliminate puncture risks on debris‑strewn job sites.
- 🏋️ Massive Lift Capacity – The 1023RT offers an industry‑leading 1,150 kg (2,535 lb) platform capacity, allowing you to carry multiple workers, heavy tools, and bulky materials in a single lift.
