A scissor lift is a 4 wheeled hydraulic controlled lift. The lift only drives forward, reverse, left and right and can only raise up or down. When the lift is raised it uses a scissor action to rise up.

It's a work platform that can be elevated, and that moves under its own power. They call it a "scissor" lift because the lifting mechanism looks like a pair of scissors opening and closing.
