Dual fuel boom lifts, which run on both gasoline and propane, offer a significant advantage in versatility compared to single-fuel options. This flexibility allows operators to switch between fuels based on availability or specific job site requirements, potentially reducing downtime. Additionally, using propane can result in fewer emissions, making dual fuel systems more environmentally friendly for indoor applications. However, the dual fuel system can be more complex, which might lead to higher maintenance costs and require operators to be knowledgeable about handling multiple types of fuel. In comparison to electric boom lifts, dual fuel machines may emit more pollutants, but they generally offer longer operating times without the need for frequent recharging. Diesel-powered lifts, on the other hand, might provide more power for heavy-duty tasks but lack the cleaner operation options of a dual fuel system.
