Fork Type Manual Stacker - Affordable and Easily 59” Lift - 880 lbs Capacity for Short Skid/Boxes, Pake Handling Tools

Update 11/17/24. I continue to call upon this lift and it never disappoints. This week I lifted a 700 lb saw out of my pickup truck box and because of the stacker's mobility, I was able to sneak the saw into a tight area in the back. The saw required disassembly for maintenance and again the lift is a great assistant lifting the heavy components. I just convinced my day job to get one, they originally couldn't get their head around a small lift. I've already used it multiple times in two days.Update 7/26/24. I've continued to use this and it never fails. It's done everything I've asked of it. I made a crane attachment to mount a rotary phase converter up and out of the way. I used it to straddle a 4" diameter by 4' long truck axle.Easy to assemble. It's very rugged, super stable and moved around easily. The wheel locks have a strong hold . I've used it to move and act as an infeed/outfeed support for 10' pallet rack beams on a horizontal saw and 8' structural I-beam on my Milling machine. I've used it to maneuver and set up a 550 lb, 72" wide tool box. I even abused the lift when I needed to raise the box higher than the rating. I hastily made a platform. Even with the top of the toolbox 9' in the air this little lift was stable. It never wobbled, tilted or pushed out. I put a ratchet strap around the top most Cross brace of the lift and it was unaffected by tightening down the strap. It stores away easily because of it's very low profile.

This was easy to assemble. It’s basically three major pieces with one small one, the hydraulic cylinder and handle. Unfortunately, the four screws for the vertical rails are loosely screwed to the part for shipping. So one had fallen off and was lost. Those screws have to be removed and when the rails are placed on the bottom with the arm portion, replaced in the holes of both, and the nuts and washers have to be tightened. I have lots of screws and nuts so was able to replace the missing one, but they should tighten the screws and nuts at the temporary resting place used for shipping so the vibration of shipping won’t cause one, or more, to loosen and fall off.Otherwise it goes together easily. My only complaint is that the wheel locks can be difficult to operate when the wheels are angled, as the lock can end up under the machine. But that’s a problem every locking wheel of this type has in anything it’s used on, so this isn’t a specific complaint about this, just something to note. The foot pedal does become harder to push as you get a heavy load, but that’s normal for this kind of mechanism.I’ve found a number of other uses for this such as an adjustable height table, a vertical plywood cutting platform and others. I’m sure the company would cringe at that, but it really does work well for it. The wheels turn easily, and it moves without a problem. So far, it’s been reliable. I see that one person had theirs break, but it could be a lemon. It’s really quite sturdy.I’ve had this for a few months now and am very pleased with it.

Broke after a couple of months with minimal use

perfect for installing large windows on ground floor areas very easy to operate

This mini fork lift is pretty awesome. It is very well built and is very sturdy. I lifted a 600 machine up about 4 ft without worry of it tipping. Pretty impressed and very happy with the purchase.

I purchased this product to help with our warehouse. Ultimately, I returned it for something we can use for double pallets, but it takes very little time to assemble and works as intended. The customer service was excellent. They were extremely responsive and helped me get everything I needed. I would definitely work with Pake products, again.

This is really great especially for the price. It rolls really smoothly and allows us to stack things on racking without getting a fork truck. We use it enough that we will be buying another.

The lift was exactly what I wanted.
