Wesco's New Telescoping Powered Hydraulic Stackers Lift 2,000-Pound Load Up To 130 Inches High

Lansdale, PA, March 2003 - New battery-powered hydraulic stackers from Wesco Industrial Products feature a high-capacity gel cell battery and telescoping rails to lift loads of up to 2,000 pounds up to 130 inches high. Extra deep straddle legs (42") can be adjusted from 35" to 50" inside width to handle most standard pallets.

Standard on Wesco's Powered Telescoping Stackers are LED battery charging status indicators, an illuminated voltmeter to indicate battery charge state, and a computer-controlled charger that allows the stacker to be used while recharging (only a minimal charge in the battery is required for operation). A special circuit permits the battery to remain connected to charger without danger of over-charging.

The Powered Telescoping Stacker's lift mechanism features a high rigidity mast, double chain/lift support, and a heavy-duty pump. Standard are a magnet-backed remote control, floor lock, safety screen, and an ergonomic "D" handle. The stackers feature 6-inch nylon wheels in the front and 8-inch nylon swivel casters in the rear. A 5th wheel attachment is available for even easier mobility.

Wesco Industrial Products, Inc. has been a premier manufacturer of material handling equipment since 1948. Along with a full line of lift equipment, Wesco offers a wide range of hand trucks, drum handling equipment, platform trucks & carts, and related accessories at competitive prices.
