Bishamon LV-10W Manual Skid Lift is a rugged high-rise, fork-style lift that provides your workforce with improved ergonomics and functional ease of access. By raising the top of the load to a convenient working height and providing easy mobility, skid lifts improve material handling productivity, increase efficiency, and reduce potential worker injury, adding profit to your bottom line.  

♦  Travel: 29.5"
♦  Capacity: 1,000 pounds
♦  Overall Fork Dimensions: 27.0" wide x 42.5" long
♦  Fork Height: 3.3" lowered and 32.8" raised
♦  Approximate Shipping Weight: 325 pounds.

The skid lifts are made to handle heavy-duty, demanding jobs. The frame and forks are made of heavy gauge steel and sturdy welds, while the lower captured roller channel delivers enhanced stability. Superior hydraulics with twin, heavy-duty lifting chains have a shorter lift stroke and reduce cylinder wear. In addition, the quality baked enamel finish protects the equipment from harsh working conditions. As a result, Bishamon skid lifts will last for years with minimal maintenance.
The equipment is also easy to operate. It features accessible hand controls that allow workers to quickly raise and lower a load and accurately position the forks. Polyurethane wheels with quality bearings and a locking foot brake offer additional versatility and mobility, allowing skids to move quickly in and out of the work cell.
The LV and LVE Skid Lifts can meet the most demanding applications. For additional functionality, they can be fitted with supplementary tables to increase the surface area of the workspace. The Bishamon skid lifts are built to last years while improving worker safety and productivity.

Manual skid lifts, also known as pallet jacks or pallet trucks, are essential in many industrial environments. They are used to lift and move pallets of goods and have a range of benefits:

♦ Efficiency: Manual skid lifts enable workers to transport heavy goods quickly and efficiently, significantly improving workflow efficiency.
♦ Ease of Use: They are relatively easy to operate. It doesn't require special training, and the learning curve is relatively low. This makes it accessible to all warehouse employees, not just those with forklift licenses.
♦ Cost Effective: They are much cheaper than powered alternatives like forklifts. This is not just in terms of the equipment's initial cost but also maintenance and fuel costs.
♦ Space Efficient: Manual skid lifts are typically much smaller than other types of industrial vehicles. This makes them an excellent choice in environments with premium space, such as warehouses or crowded shop floors.
♦ Safety: They are also generally safer than powered alternatives. Because they are manually operated, they are less likely to be involved in accidents caused by mechanical failure or operator error.
♦ Durability: Manual skid lifts are built to last. They are typically made of robust steel and can withstand wear and tear. This makes them a durable choice that can provide a good return on investment.
♦ Versatility: They can be used in a variety of applications. This includes moving pallets, lifting heavy equipment, moving crates, and even acting as a makeshift workbench.
♦ Low Noise Levels: Manual skid lifts don't produce significant noise unlike motorized lifts. This can lead to a more pleasant working environment, especially enclosed spaces.
♦ Environmentally Friendly: Manual skid lifts do not run on fuel or emit harmful gases, so they are a green solution for material handling needs.

Remember that while these are generally advantages, there may be certain situations or environments where a powered alternative might be a better choice - for example, if heavy loads need to be lifted regularly or over significant distances.
