The Sky Is The Limit With Midland's High-Lift Pallet Trucks | PRLog

SLT10

PRLog (Press Release) - Feb 11, 2012 -
In working environments where pallet trucks are used, sometimes an ordinary hand pallet truck or life table simply doesn’t scale the heights needed for a particular task. Midland Pallet Trucks, one of the UK’s premier providers of pallet truck products, has an excellent range of high-lift pallet trucks available to buy, and with prices starting at just £383.25, there is something to suit every business and every budget.
Sometimes called hi-lifters or scissor-lift pallet trucks, the powerful electric units are designed for lifting pallets to a height easier for the operator to work with. They raise pallets from the floor to waist height so that those operating the truck don’t need to constantly bend down and pick up or replace cargo. This is useful in preventing repetitive strain injuries within a workforce and helps to keep employees fit and healthy; lifting heavy boxes without the assistance of a high-lift pallet truck, even when following correct lifting procedures, can have a massive effect on not only the employee’s health but the speed at which they work and therefore their productivity.
At the budget end of the range and suitable for any company looking to lift up to 1000kg at a time is the SLT10 High Lift Hand Pallet Truck. This manual truck has a three-stage trigger and numerous safety functions, such as its inability to move when the forks are raised and two built in lateral stabilisers which ensure good stability. The telescopic jack gives great rigidity for easy lifting and there are entry and exit rollers on the forks for easy loading of the pallets. This basic high-lift pallet truck is simple yet very effective and is available from Midland Pallet Trucks for just £383.25.
The SLP10B Stainless High Lift Hand Pallet Truck is also operated by hand and has a similar specification to the budget option, with the exception being that it can lift up to 1500kg. Finished in stainless steel, the heavy-duty pump will lift up to 1500kg to 800mm and is ideal for use in the pharmaceutical, food and chemical industries. As with all of Midland Pallet Trucks’ products, the truck conforms to CE safety standards and is available for £1,600.00.
The most powerful high-lift truck in Midland’s range is the EHS-0809 Electric High Lift Truck, which is ideal for loading and unloading vans and lifting cages or pallets to a workable height. The semi-electric lift greatly reduces the physical effort required to lift such cargo and improves working conditions for employees significantly. A charger is included with the truck, which has a tilt facility, a 210 degree turning radius and an automatic slowing mechanism on the descent which helps to prevent damage to heavy loads when they are lowered. This robust and powerful semi-electric lift is available from Midland priced at £1,495.00.
