The hoist is designed to fit any vehicle fitted with a tray or level surface. The hoist kit is packaged to enable the owner to fit the hoist in their own work place. It simply bolts to any corner of the tray. Your pay load capacity is virtually unchanged as the hoist weighs only 88kg. The base of the hoist is folded to ensure light weight , strength and only 50 mm wide. Stock crates, tool boxes etc can remain on the vehicle.
    Generally the hoist is used to lift items that require two or more people eg. generators, compressors, welders, 44 gallon drums and fencing materials. The Lindsell Hoist does not require a licence to operate, (excluding ACT).
    The Lindsell Hoist is powered by a 12 or 24 volt electric/hydraulic power unit using the vehicle's battery. This independent power unit enables the hoist to lift 250kg at 2.5 metres 400kg at 1.6 metres above the tray and 700kg at 0.9 metres. The boom rises to 2.4 metres above the surface of the tray and lowers to approximately 50cms below the tray.
   A complete Lindsell Hoist includes the base, boom, power cable, handset control (3.5 metre cable), adjustable support leg, bolts, nuts and diagram form safety instructions. The hydraulic cylinder is a standard type ensuring easy service anywhere in Australia.
