The unit has a rubber support pad to suit gas bottles with diameters between 180mm to 450mm. The operator secures the cylinder in place against the pad using a ratchet and strap mechanism before lifting and manoeuvring it into position. The rubber pads provide additional grip between the cylinder and support pad ensuring the load is held securely throughout the handling operation. To detach the cylinder the ratchet mechanism is released, this is done by pulling the ratchet lever and rotating the handle forward.

The 17cc aluminium pump supplies oil to a lifting ram in the centre of the unit. The system raises the gas bottle when the rear tiller handle is pumped back and forth. A hand-operated lowering lever/valve is mounted on the top of the lifter body. The lowering lever provides precise control when a gas bottle needs to be lowered down onto the floor. We assemble all our hydraulic circuits by hand in our UK factory to ensure that each system is clean and provides long-term reliability.
ATEX / UKEX-certified model for Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22 (optional)
ATEX / UKEX-certified model for Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22 (optional)
Explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres require operators to use zoned ATEX / UKEX equipment. We provide fully certified gas bottle lifters for use in these hazardous areas if required.
The ATEX / UKEX version is suitable for use in 'Ex' classified spaces: Zone 1, 2, 21 and 22. Electrical continuity - whereby a path to ground is always present – is of key importance when manufacturing ATEX / UKEX-compliant cylinder handling equipment. All our 'Ex' cylinder lifters are supplied with a Declaration of Conformity which states compliance with the directives and relevant British and ISO Standards.
