The 3246ES is one of the default electric slab scissors in Australian hire fleets, and that is where most used examples come from: ex-rental units released in batches as national and regional hire companies turn over stock along the east coast. Buyers are typically fit-out and maintenance contractors, facility managers and smaller hire operators wanting genuine height from a machine that remains compact enough for indoor slab work. Specification barely varies — direct electric drive, non-marking tyres and a roll-out deck extension are standard — so pricing turns almost entirely on condition. Battery pack health is the single biggest cost variable, and the asking spread between tired fleet units and freshly serviced examples is wide for machines of similar age. Check major-inspection status carefully: many units on the market were built around the middle of last decade and are at or past the ten-yearly major inspection Australian standards require, which materially changes the real price.

What Moves the Price
In-date major inspection
EWPs need a ten-year major inspection in Australia. A unit with the inspection done and stickered is worth visibly more than one that is due.
Battery condition
Electric slab scissors live and die by their batteries. A fresh battery set with a healthy charger reads as years of trouble-free hire.
Ex-rental fleet churn
Big fleet sell-offs set the floor of the market. Privately owned, lightly used units recover a clear margin over fleet-liquidation pricing.
Decals & compliance
Missing safety decals, worn guardrails and an out-of-date logbook all say deferred maintenance — buyers price the recommissioning first.
