Fork Truck Lift

Owners of fleets of Class 2 fork trucks now have a safe and efficient alternative for servicing their vehicles. Because Class 2 vehicles, also known as "low profile" or "narrow aisle," are often difficult or impossible to service with conventional service lifts, many fleet owners rely on alternatives such as hoists, block and tackle, or even conventional fork trucks. Handling Specialty's two-post Excalibur fork truck service lift offers a safer and more efficient alternative for performing repairs and maintenance on low profile vehicles.

The design features of Handling Specialty's Excalibur fork truck service lift allow for faster servicing of Class 2 vehicles. The lift incorporates a low-grade ramp for driving low-profile vehicles onto the service lift. Hydraulic actuation allows the Excalibur lift to operate quickly in high volume environments where fleets are large and/or preventive maintenance checks are frequent and brief in duration. Specialty bars for ergonomic servicing of Class 2 vehicles are also available from the manufacturer in addition to the basic Excalibur unit.

The portable Excalibur lift provides a safe unobstructed platform for faster, more productive servicing of lift trucks weighing up to 20,000 lbs. This is one of the few lifts that allows 100% access to all rolling parts including the tires, brakes, wheel bearings, steering and differential. Safety features include mechanical automatic safety locks every 1 ¾", toe guard, non-skid deck, and extended hose life.
