Southworth Products: Ergonomic Transporter, Lifter

Dandy Lifts from Southworth Products make transporting and lifting goods safer and easier in a wide range of industries. They are available in seven models with a range of capacities (330 to 1,760 pounds), lifting heights (29 inches to 49.8 inches), and platform sizes (17.7 x 28 inches to 23.6 x 39.4 inches).  Configurations include single-scissor, double-scissor, high-lift, and heavy-duty.  A low-profile model has a platform that descends to 3.2” from the floor and is available with forks for use with skids and plastic pallets.  All units feature steerable caster-type wheels; parking locks; and attractive, colorful, enamel-and-chrome finishes.

Ergonomic features include a “Multi-Grip” Position Handle with sure-grip cushioning and gentle contours that allow users to pick the most comfortable hand position for what they are doing — pushing, pulling, maneuvering, or raising loads. A “Qwik-Grip” Lowering Handle with an oversized, open-triangle design that makes it accessible from almost any position behind or beside the Dandy Lift. A 180-degree Access Foot Pedal with a large, open-loop design that allows it to be pumped from different angles at the rear or side of the unit while providing solid contact regardless of footwear.

Also available is the Powered Dandy Lift, which lifts and lowers at the touch of a button thanks to a 24-volt battery.  Powered Dandy Lifts are available in five models with capacities from 220 to 500 pounds, platform sizes of 20 x 31.5 inches and 24 x 36 inches, and raised heights to 51 inches.
