The lift gate features greaseless bushings, which are highly resistant to wear and abrasion, and prevent galling. Built for heavy commercial usage, the LH and LLB use a steel cabinet to protect the motor and pump from road and weather elements.
Benefits on the LH and LLB Hide-A-Way(TM) with wedge platform:
o Chrome plated pins
o Pressure compensated flow controls
o Spring assisted opening and closing of platform
o Low P.S.I. due to larger cylinder surface
o Pump and motor box can be unbolted and moved for better gate installation
o Marine toggle switch (no linkage)
o Heavy duty platform extension designed to accommodate forklift usage
o Power units have thermal protection on motor
o Our secondary platform has twice the amount of vertical supports for extra strength to support the weight.
o Lifting arms are 1" thick steel with cross bracing to give even more support when the load is not centered. This prevents arms from twisting and causing the gate platform to tilt down.
