| Mechanical drum lifter for ergonomic lifting Liftomatic Material Handling offers the model MH-FTA, a forklift attachment designed to handle short drums in either steel, plastic or fiber configuration. Typically, these drums, ranging from 15-30 gallons, have been palletized and rolled on and off the pallets by hand. Lifting injuries and hand/leg injuries demanded a mechanical product to lift loads up to 500 pounds The MH-FTA unit was designed specifically for these applications. Both single and double drum units are available. Liftomatic's exclusive Parrot-Beak clamping mechanism provides a positive grip on all ring styles without the operator ever having to leave the seat of the forklift. Occasional lubrication and inspection of springs is the only maintenance required. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
