A fast, powerful, versatile lifter
The Handylift Hydraulic Manhole Cover Lifter is Proteus’ best-selling and most versatile lifter.
It is light and easy to use, and with a safe working load of 1.5 tones it will enable anyone to lift even stuck covers with minimal effort. With the right selection of keys and accessories, it is capable of lifting virtually any cover with keyholes, including the following:
- Single piece sewer covers
- Split ‘double-triangle’ covers
- Block-paved covers with four keyholes
- Elkington Gatic covers
The lifter can be carried completely assembled in a van, or can disassembled quickly and easily to fit into smaller spaces.
One of the important things to remember for UK-based customers is that a Handylift Hydraulic lifter will help you fulfil your obligations under the Manual Handling Operations Regulations 1992.
We have supplied our lifters to all major UK utility companies, councils, and thousands of other clients.
Larger sizes available for bigger covers
The standard model is capable of lifting covers up 900 x 900mm.
For covers larger than this, we also stock the Handylift Texas Hydraulic. This unit is a physically larger version of the standard model, and can tackle covers up to 1200 x 1200mm.
The Texas is the only Hydraulic manhole lifter in the UK designed to tackle covers this large. And if that I still not big enough, we can alter wheelspans and body length to lift even bigger manhole covers.
