Storage & Handling

jib reach and loads

Merlin Industrial have added the Just lift electric load lifters to their site. The lifters, that can be used with various remote controls, help the cranes operate under a single person. The smallest model has a capacity of 150 kg, whilst the largest model can lift up to 750 kg. Each electric crane can rotate 240 to 360 degrees. These compact, lightweight cranes offer companies an alternative way to safely and quickly move repetitive loads.

Just Lift Electric Lifters

“Toilets need lifting too” is something that we do not hear a lot to be fair. With the forklift becoming the jack of all trades, it is surprising, the amount of attachments that can be fitted to the forklift to enable it to become almost anything that you need. forklift toilet lifterThe loo lifter shown above is just an amusing example of how diverse forklift attachments have become. Please see some other examples below.

Fork Mounted Skip Compactor

skip compactor

The Fork Mounted Skip Compactor is designed to achieve optimum skip capacity. Waste is usually deposited into the yard skip and taken away once full. However, in most cases the skip is 30-45 percent full of fresh air. The Skip Compactor significantly reduces this and subsequently reduces the number of collections required and money spent in doing so.

Model Weight (kg) C of G (mm) Length (mm) Width (mm) Height (mm)
ISC-1 1000 390 800 1500 320
ISC-2 2000 390 800 1500 600

Standard Features

  • Adjustable height to suit up to 8 foot deep skips
  • Heel pin locking for the safe attachment to forklift truck
  • Robust and sturdy construction
  • Painted bright orange for safety

Operation

  • Position the forks to the correct distance apart to locate into fork pockets.
  • Remove the safety lynch pin and fork pocket heel pins.
  • Drive the forks fully into the fork pockets.
  • Insert fork pocket heel pins directly behind the heel of the fork and attach safety lynch pin into hole provided.
  • Remove Height Adjustment Pin in the main vertical box section to adjust compactor height to suit waste/skip height.
  • Once the desired position is achieved, insert the Adjustment Pin into the aligned holes and attach the safety lynch pin into the hole provided.
  • The attachment is now ready for use.

As well as the spring lift trolleys above, we have the following range that is manufactured to order offering a wider range of sizes and colours.

Self-levelling units are ideally located in situations that require a worker to be bending and lifting in their workplace.
By using a self levelling unit, the possibilities of a worker injuring their back are greatly reduced.
The panto-graph works by a spring system that is set at a pre-calculated rate.
Each time an object is placed on the table-top, it lowers a little, leaving the item at a reachable height.
The reverse happens when removing objects from the unit, each time an object is removed the table-top rises, ensuring the items are always at the top of the unit to ease back problems in the workplace.
Self-levelling units can be placed in most straight sided containers.
Please find below a list of our most popular sizes.
Standard delivery is 3 to 5 weeks, as all these units are manufactured to order.
