The unit is fitted with 800mm straddle legs that go around the narrow end of a Euro pallet. If you require a unit with legs that go beneath a Euro pallet please get in touch and we can offer a custom unit.

Manual hydraulic pump
Manual hydraulic pump
All our manual-lift units are fitted with UK-made high-quality hand pumps. We ensure that every hydraulic system is both reliable and free of defects. The hand pump is easy to operate; operators simply pump the handle up and down to raise the load and then turn a hand-operated valve to lower drums back down to the ground or onto a Euro pallet. Our team of assembly engineers tests and inspects every hand pump to ensure zero defects.
