Versatile Power, Outstanding Performance
The new HeightRider 12 4x4 (HR12 4x4 MK2) combines compact design with exceptional power and versatility, offering a choice of two EU Stage V-compliant power options:
- Niftylift’s Gen2 Hybrid system – an efficient combination of electric and diesel power that automatically delivers extra boost when needed.
- A powerful, yet efficient Diesel engine – delivering robust performance and reliability for demanding outdoor environments.
Both options provide low emissions, reduced fuel consumption, and the flexibility to perform efficiently across a wide range of job sites.
Compact, Agile, and Highly Capable
With a working height of 12.1m and a working outreach of 6.4m, the HR12 4x4 MK2 offers class-leading reach from a compact, low-weight chassis. Its four-wheel-drive system ensures excellent traction and control, while its tight turning circle allows precise manoeuvrability in confined areas. The HR12 4x4 MK2 can be driven from the cage while elevated, making repositioning quick and simple for maximum productivity.
Strong, Safe, and Operator-Focused
Designed for strength and durability, the HR12 4x4 MK2 features Niftylift’s impact-resistant ToughCage, which safely accommodates two people and their tools with a 227kg safe working load. The telescopic upper boom provides greater accuracy when positioning the platform, and fully proportional multi-function controls ensure smooth and responsive operation for improved precision and comfort.
Smart Technology for Maximum Uptime
The HR12 4x4 MK2 includes on-board diagnostics as standard, providing clear, real-time feedback to the operator and service teams to speed up troubleshooting and reduce downtime. In addition, it comes equipped with Niftylink®, Niftylift’s advanced telematics system, which delivers live data on machine performance, activity, and location through the Niftylink Go app or Manager Portal — helping you monitor usage, optimise maintenance, and maximise efficiency.
Efficient, Low-Weight Design
Its low overall weight not only reduces transportation costs but also allows operation on a wider range of surfaces, including finished floors and sensitive ground. This makes the HR12 4x4 MK2 the perfect combination of performance, efficiency, and mobility.
Safety You Can Trust
Every HR12 4x4 MK2 includes Niftylift’s award-winning Sustained Involuntary Operation Prevention System (SiOPS®). SiOPS® instantly stops all machine movement if the operator is pushed against the control console, preventing serious injury and setting the standard for operator protection.
The HR12 4x4 MK2 – Compact power, advanced safety, and intelligent efficiency for any environment.
