UpRight X26 – specifications
Series: UpRight Scissor Lift
Build year not documented · Data origin: Directory data · sources
The X26 is a scissor lift from the manufacturer UpRight, belonging to the Scissor Lift series. This model from the X series offers a platform height of 26 feet and is designed for use indoors as well as on paved outdoor surfaces. As a battery-electric lift, the machine targets users who require emission-free operation in enclosed spaces or sensitive environments. The design is based on the typical scissor mechanism, which enables vertical movement of the platform.
Technically, the X26 features a platform capacity of 454 kg, allowing for the transport of two persons including tools and materials. The platform dimensions of 3,200.1 mm in length and 1,170.2 mm in width provide sufficient standing area for the working height. With a net weight of 2,153 kg and a ground clearance of 89.2 mm, the machine is designed for use on smooth floors. The solid, non-marking tires with a diameter of 381 mm protect sensitive floor coverings. The maximum speed of 3.2 km/h is dimensioned for safe transport during operation. The lifting time of 45 seconds and the lowering time of 40 seconds enable rapid positioning. The power supply is provided by four batteries with a total capacity of 220 Ah at a system voltage of 24 V.
Within the series, the X26 ranks tenth out of eleven models with specified net weights. The next smaller model is the MX19 with a weight of 1,460 kg, while the next larger model, the X26N, weighs 2,358 kg. The range of net weights within the series spans from 1,460 to 15,750 kg. This classification shows that the X26 is positioned in the lower to mid-weight range of the scissor lift family.
UpRight scissor lifts MX19 to X80ND – the lifts of the Californian pioneer from Selma: X as range, the number as platform height in feet, N for narrow, RT for rough terrain, SL as Speed Level range
UpRight of Selma, California, was one of the pioneers of the aerial work platform – founded in 1947 with aluminium scaffolding, in scissor lifts since the 1970s, and through its plants in California and Ireland one of the big makers in the 1990s; in 2013 Snorkel took over the remains of the company, and the UpRight models continued under the Snorkel name. The type logic: X marks the scissor-lift range, the number the platform height in feet – X26 26 ft (7.9 m), X32 32 ft, X80 80 ft – N the narrow version, RT the rough-terrain lift with all-wheel drive, BE the battery-electric version, ND the narrow version with diesel; MX19 is the compact indoor lift with 19 ft, SL26 and SL30 the Speed Level range whose chassis self-levels on slopes. The rough-terrain lifts run on Kubota diesels (D-905) and petrol engines (V-905), the indoor lifts on battery.

The register lists 11 versions with service weights from 1,460 to 15,750 kg, lengths from 1,750 to 5,100 mm and widths from 760 to 2,130 mm; the rough-terrain lifts deliver 16.8 kW.
UpRight lifts are still numerous in the rental fleets of Europe and North America; the Speed Level range with self-levelling chassis was an UpRight invention that Snorkel continues as the SL range.
On used lifts, operating hours, battery condition on electric models, play in scissor pins and rails, hydraulic tightness, the function of tilt and overload sensors and a valid periodic inspection count; parts run through Snorkel, which continues the UpRight spare parts.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
