Mini crane helps beat back injuries
December 1st 2005

AL-Vac UK has introduced the latest version of its mini truck and van crane that has a capacity of 160kg.

Developed to help companies conform to the manual handling regulations, the unit is simple and safe to use in many demanding applications.

It may be specified with a safety hook for conventional lifting tasks or fitted with the AL-Vac Handyman vacuum lifter. This is available with special attachments for handling kerb stones, slabs, drums, barrels and other nonstandard loads. Up and down movements and suction are controlled by switchgear on the handlebars.
