High quality compatible replacement battery set for the NiftyLift 170, 4 x 6v 260ah flooded batteries wired for this 24v trailer mounted cherry picker.
The NiftyLift 170 is a trailer-mounted cherry picker reaching a 17.1m working height with 8.7m of outreach, popular with electrical contractors, facilities teams, and heritage building crews who need to tow a platform straight to site. Hydraulic outriggers level it quickly on uneven ground, and the telescopic upper boom gives fine control close to a building face.

Being flooded cells, it's worth checking electrolyte levels every couple of weeks and topping up if it's running low, a five minute job that keeps the plates covered and protects capacity over the battery's working life. Plug the set in to recharge at the end of every shift rather than letting it sit part-drained, and if the platform is going to be parked between jobs, give it a top-up charge at least monthly so it isn't left sitting flat.
For anyone wanting to move away from flooded maintenance, an AGM version of this set is also available as a spill-proof, maintenance free upgrade with no electrolyte checks or top-ups, at the same fit and voltage as the standard flooded set.
