Pack King LEV8 single-person lifter

The Pack King LEV8 single-person lifter is a hybrid, using a ladder (with fitted hand rails), to get the operator into a 550 x 600 mm working enclosure. This makes it safer to paint, clean, fit or fix using both hands, while the user’s tools remain close by.

The LEV8 folds down to 1300 x 800 x 2070 mm high, so it fits through a standard doorway.

There are two front outriggers that can be set either forward or splayed out. Each has its own winding handle. They stow away by simply folding up and pinning.

The wheels are large (250 mm) with brakes on the swivels, so it is easy to push and locate the LEV8 precisely.

The operator’s carriage is simply unfolded, pinned, then wound up to any height using a hand ‘brake’ winch, then the mast is underpinned for extra safety. A pin locks the unit in place, should the sensor detect a slack or broken wire rope, so that the operator works with two fail-safes.

The ladder has hand rails and telescopes. The operator enters the carriage from the rear, flips the rear floor guard up (to prevent tools from falling out), then fastens a safety chain behind themselves.

The product has no hydraulics, battery or electrics — simply wind up and work. The maximum load capacity is 125 kg.
