Backsaver Lifts

Please Note: Only common options are listed in the quote requests. If you would like additional options from the below list quoted, please include that information in the requirements section of the quote request.

• Larger Power Units - Higher horsepower motors and hydraulics used to increase travel speed.
• Air Motor Driven Power Units - For use where electrical actuation is undesirable and shop air is available; meets explosion proof requirements.
• DC Power Units - Direct current power units for use with battery power.
• External Power Unit - Power unit is connected to lift only by hydraulic hoses.
• Manual Hand or Foot Pump Actuation - Lever type hand pump or foot pedal pump for use when manual actuation or precise positioning is required.
• Cross Check Valving - Locks oil in cylinders to eliminate deflection caused by oil transfer. Used in certain side loading applications.
• Power Units Full JIC Style Continuous Running Power Units* - Continuous running power unit built to JIC specifications.
• No Coast Valving - Fast acting hydraulic valving, which decreases upward coast, for use where more precise positioning is desired.
• Minimum Downdrift Valving - Near positive shut-off valving for use where platform must maintain position for extended periods of time.
• Continuous Running Power Units - Heavy-duty power units with special cooling features. Power unit runs continuously, and valves are actuated to activate lift. Used for extremely high jogs or cycles.
• Double Acting Cylinders - For special applications where it is necessary to provide both power up and power down.
• Air Bag Actuation - Inflatable air bag provides limited travel lift actuation. Used where electrical power is not desirable or where only two positions are required.
• Screw Jack - Lift is actuated by gear motor driven worm or ball screw. For more precise, repetitive positioning or where hydraulics are not desired.
• Hot and Cold Temperature Hydraulic Packaging - Special sealing and hydraulic fluids for use in hot or cold atmospheres.
• Velocity Fuse(s)/Excess Flow Protectors - Hydraulic control prevents table free fall in the unlikely event of massive hydraulic failure.

• Wall Mounted Push Button - Permanent wall mounted controls for use where a fixed operating station is desirable.
• Automatic Leveling Package - Optical sensing control positions table and stops travel at any preset height.
• Maintained Contact Controls - Up/down/emergency stop push button control which stops travel automatically at preset level. (Control button does not have to be held.)
• Electrical Quick Disconnect - Quick disconnect plugs for use with portable or frequently relocated lifts.
• Special NEMA Rated Electrical Packages - A variety of electrical packages designed to meet NEMA standards for outdoor, explosion proof, and other installation requirements.
• Visual or Audible Signals - Lights or bells used to warn personnel when lift is in operation.
• Travel Limit Switch(es) - Electrical switch stops travel, prevents overtravel, provides height positioning, and can activate associated equipment. Should be used with mechanical stop for fixed lowered height.
• One-Touch Auto Leveling - Increase productivity in repositioning applications. Raise or lower lifts a specific increment at the touch of a button

• Narrow Base - Reduced width base to fit special needs. Must be lagged for stability.
• Wide Base - Increased width base provides extra stability for wider loads.
• Sub Bases - Extra base unit increases low height of standard designs. Provides a positive stop at predetermined down level. Frequently used for integration with automated systems.
• Lifting Eyes - Steel eye bolts allow table to be lifted with hoist. Frequently used in pit mounted applications for ease of installation and maintenance.
• Lag Plates - Permanently attached plates or angles with bolt holes for lagging tables to floor.
• Increased Roll Over Capacity - Structural strengthening of table support for use in pit installations where loaded trucks or transporters must traverse the platform in its lowered position.

• Semi-Live Portable - Consists of wheels at one end of base and pull plate at the other, plus wheeled jack handle. Used only for moving table to a new position, and not for transporting materials.
• Powered Traverse - Hydraulic motor drives two wheels on a single shaft via a chain and sprocket.
• Vee Groove Wheels - Steel wheels with groove for use with inverted angle or Vee track to provide unidirectional horizontal movement.
• Flanged Wheels - Steel wheels with flange for use with flat or rail track to provide unidirectional horizontal movement.
• Casters - A variety of casters, mounting arrangements, and floor locks is available for use where full portability and maneuverability are desired.
• Push Bar - Hand height bar to facilitate manual movement of wheeled or castered portable units.

• Manual or Powered Turntables - Bearing mounted and supported turntables for rotating or positioning loads of work.
• Tilting Tops - 30°, 45°, and 90° tilting platforms for better positioning of certain loads.
• Access Plate - Removable or hinged plate in platform surface allows access to power unit and hydraulics when lift is in lowered position.
• Anti-skid Platform Surfaces - Diamond tread platform surface or abrasive type paint provide better traction for powered vehicles and reduce danger of personnel slipping.
• Vee Cradle Platform - Vee shaped platform provides centering and secure handling of cylindrical loads, such as rolls.
• Fork Pockets - Structural fork pockets allow entire unit to be lifted and moved by fork truck.
• Stainless Steel Platform - Corrosion and damage resistant surface for use with corrosive materials or where frequent wash down is required.
• Wheel Chock - Counter-weighted wheel chock recessed in table top. Automatically engages as lift raises and prevents wheeled vehicle from rolling in set direction.
• End-Shifting Platform - Manual or powered platform end-shift used to align loads with other handling systems or operating equipment.
• Ball Transfer Top - Fixed or retractable ball conveyors for omnidirectional movement of load on platform.
• Fixed and Removable - Handrails with Snap Chain For use in applications involving personnel lifting. Removable rails allow access from any side when lift is not in use.
• Bevel Toeguard - 30° bevel on platform sides provides warning contact without abrupt shear point when lift table is installed in pit.
• Gravity or Powered Conveyor Tops - Roller conveyor tops for integration with other handling equipment or systems.
• Throw-Over Plates - Hinged plates used to provide a bridge between the platform surface and an adjacent fixed height surface.
• Bellows AccordionSkirting - Single-ply stitched polyester skirting covers mechanism between platform and base. Also available as boots to cover cylinders only.
• Toe Sensing Edge - Automatically reverses lift on contact with any obstruction.

• Export Boxing - Meets special packaging and shipping requirements for export out of the United States.
• Special Paint - Customer specified paint formulations and colors. Corrosion Protection similar to that of Hot Dip Galvanizing.
• Cam Follower Rollers - Low friction leg rollers for increased efficiency and longer operating life.
• High Duty Cycle and Greased Manifolds - Special bearing packages and regreasable pivot points for moderately high and high duty cycle applications.
