Powered Hand Truck

The Makinex Powered Hand Truck (PHT2-140) is a universal materials handling solution that enables one person to safely lift and load equipment or bulky objects weighing up to 140kg (309lbs) on and off trucks and trailers.

Costing a fraction of a budget forklift, the PHT2-140 is a cinch to use and does not require any operator licenses. It provides a quick and versatile alternative to using a forklift or tailgate loader for small loads.

The Powered Hand Truck has many applications in workshops, warehouses, factories, depots, distribution companies, and hire and rental yards. Wherever bulky and awkward objects need to be loaded onto vehicles or moved around your facility.

The PHT features powered lift via a 12V 25A linear actuator. The lifting arm reach is controlled by the user lifting or lowering the handles, and the arm height is controlled via a simple thumb switch.

The unique design enables one person operation to lift and load directly into a truck, vans or utility vehicle. Or to place equipment and small loads on bench tops where they can be worked on. It eliminates awkward and dangerous one or two person lifts and reduces the risk of muscle strains and back injuries from heavy lifting.

The sturdy Powered Hand Truck is surprising light and easy to manoeuvre. After use it is quickly folded down flat for easy transportation on a truck or storage. It comes with a hook attachment for lifting, moving and loading small equipment and machinery such water pumps, generators, air compressors, plate compactors etc.

Several optional attachments (sold separately) are available for handling different types of objects. These include a fork-lift, Glass Sucker, Sling and Strap frame attachment.

Hire firms love the PHT!
