Description
-The EKKO ES40E is a compact, self-propelled electric scissor lift that raises a 500 lb platform to a working height of 13 ft (157 in), with a maximum working height of roughly 19.7 ft (236 in) once an operator is standing on it. It runs on a 24-volt battery system, drives itself at up to 4 km/h (about 2.5 mph) when lowered, and moves through doorways and down aisles on a chassis just 57 in long and 30 in wide.
This aerial work platform is built for indoor overhead work — stockroom picking, light maintenance, signage and lighting, retail fit-out, and the everyday reaching tasks where a person needs to get to a ceiling or upper rack safely without a ladder. Its inside turning radius is zero, so the ES40E turns within its own footprint and repositions in tight rooms where a larger lift would have to be backed out and re-aimed.
The ES40E is rated for indoor use. Its data plate lists a maximum allowable outdoor wind speed and outdoor lateral-force rating of zero, and an indoor platform rating of up to two occupants, so it is meant for firm, level floors out of the wind rather than open outdoor sites. Stating that plainly up front beats discovering it after delivery.
Drive and lift run through proportional control with a Curtis controller, which meters speed smoothly instead of switching everything on and off, paired with dual front-wheel drive and braking. A roll-out platform extension adds 23.6 in of reach with its own 220 lb rating, and the steel-construction platform folds its guardrails down to a 63 in stowed height for moving through standard doorways and into elevators.
EKKO Lifts is a US-based material handling manufacturer with a Class I–V equipment range, and it backs the ES40E with a 3-year limited warranty. The lift ships via freight; contact Forklift King to arrange scheduling and delivery.

FAQ
-Is the EKKO ES40E for indoor or outdoor use?
Indoor. The data plate lists an outdoor wind-speed and lateral-force rating of zero, so the ES40E should be operated on firm, level interior floors, out of the wind.
How high does it reach?
The platform raises to 13 ft (157 in), and the maximum working height — measured to where an operator can reach standing on the deck — is roughly 19.7 ft (236 in).
How much weight can the platform hold?
The main platform is rated for 500 lb. The 23.6 in roll-out extension is separately rated for 220 lb.
How is it powered and charged?
It runs on a 24-volt system built from two 12V, 100 Ah batteries. The charger accepts 100–240V AC at 10 A, so it tops up from a standard wall outlet.
Will it fit through doorways and into elevators?
With the guardrails folded, the stowed height drops to 63 in. The chassis is 57.1 in long and 29.9 in wide with a zero inside turning radius, so it maneuvers through standard doorways and tight rooms.
How fast does it drive?
Up to 4 km/h (about 2.5 mph) when lowered, and up to 0.8 km/h (about 0.5 mph) when raised.
What safety standards does it meet?
EKKO states the ES40E complies with the EN280 and GB25849 aerial work platform standards. For US ANSI A92.20 or CSA compliance status, contact Forklift King — the documentation supplied lists EN280 and GB25849.
