Lift Tables: A diverse range of models, including hydraulic, electric, and scissor lift tables. The LoProfile™ LX Series features electric-hydraulic scissor lift tables with low collapsed heights (2.9 to 4.3 inches) and capacities up to 4,400 lbs. Optimal safety is ensured through a full-perimeter electric toe guard, remote power unit, and 24V operator control voltage. The Alpha Series represents next-generation electric-hydraulic scissor lift tables, compliant with ANSI MH 29.1:2020 safety standards and offering capacities from 2,200 to 6,600 lbs. Smooth and stable operation is guaranteed by high-load ball bearings and flow limiting valves. The CompacLift® X Series comprises compact scissor lift tables with capacities from 440 to 1,650 lbs, available in manual hydraulic (foot pump), electro-hydraulic (push button), or air-hydraulic (foot pedal) operation. Its compact design and enhanced stability rollers are optimized for confined workspaces. The MobiLift™ BX/BXB Series includes mobile scissor lift tables with manual foot pump or battery-powered operation, supporting load capacities from 330 to 1,760 lbs. Ergonomic push handles and options for double scissor and stainless steel models provide versatile choices. EZ Off Floor Level Lift Tables allow for easy loading and unloading at ground level without the need for a pit or ramp. These tables offer ergonomic design and high efficiency, reducing worker strain.LiftTables:Adiverserangeofmodels,includinghydraulic,electric,andscissorlifttables.TheLoProfile™LXSeriesfeatureselectric-hydraulicscissorlifttableswithlowcollapsedheights(2.9to4.3inches)andcapacitiesupto4,400lbs.Optimalsafetyisensuredthroughafull-perimeterelectrictoeguard,remotepowerunit,and24Voperatorcontrolvoltage.TheAlphaSeriesrepresentsnext-generationelectric-hydraulicscissorlifttables,compliantwithANSIMH29.1:2020safetystandardsandofferingcapacitiesfrom2,200to6,600lbs.Smoothandstableoperationisguaranteedbyhigh-loadballbearingsandflowlimitingvalves.TheCompacLift®XSeriescomprisescompactscissorlifttableswithcapacitiesfrom440to1,650lbs,availableinmanualhydraulic(footpump),electro-hydraulic(pushbutton),orair-hydraulic(footpedal)operation.Itscompactdesignandenhancedstabilityrollersareoptimizedforconfinedworkspaces.TheMobiLift™BX/BXBSeriesincludesmobilescissorlifttableswithmanualfootpumporbattery-poweredoperation,supportingloadcapacitiesfrom330to1,760lbs.Ergonomicpushhandlesandoptionsfordoublescissorandstainlesssteelmodelsprovideversatilechoices.EZOffFloorLevelLiftTablesallowforeasyloadingandunloadingatgroundlevelwithouttheneedforapitorramp.Thesetablesofferergonomicdesignandhighefficiency,reducingworkerstrain.
