New One Man Lifter Saves Backs

Handling glass plates and windows can be a back breaker due to the weight and dimension of the plates and the uneven grounds of construction sites. The methods to deliver plates haven’t changed in decades even with windows now getting heavier and larger.

Quattrolifts has released the Express, an innovative small portable lifter that allows one man to move plates weighing up 80kg or two men up to 150kg. The Express is loaded onto a truck in two 25kg parts and easily assembled in under a minute.

Once assembled the Express can unload plates off the truck and then transport the plates and windows on site. The large 330mm pneumatic wheels allow for travelling over rough grounds on construction sites. The wheelbase can be adjusted from 54 cm to 80cm allowing for narrow walkways on-site.

Two terrific features of the Express allow the lite or window to be rotated 360 degrees and secondly the operator can also index the lite allowing him to move through standard 90cm wide doorways.
