1  Introduction and features 

 

Congratulations ! 

With  the  new  LIFTKAR  SAL  you  have  purchased  a  handy  modular

–designed  sack 

truck with an unladen weight of only 16kg.   

Once  you  fit  the  snap-on  battery,  this  simple  sack  truck  becomes  a  versatile  all-
rounder:  a  normal  sack  truck  for  general  use  on  level  ground  and  a  powered  stair 
climber for use on steps and stairs. 

Additional  features,  such  as  the  wide  pneumatic  tyres  (also  available  in  puncture 
proof),  make  this  equal  to  any  conventional  hand  truck  for  use  outdoors  and  for 
professional deliveries but with the added bonus of going up steps and stairs as well. 

With the SAL Series climbing stairs has been reduced to the essential: The LIFTKAR 
pulls itself up onto the step above and lifts to only the necessary step height.  

During  descent,  the  motor  acts  like  an  electric  brake  and  the  load  is  brought  down 
without “bumping”.  It is also ideal for winding staircases and across tight landings. 

The  LIFTKAR  SAL  has  a  mechanical  clutch  which  will  prevent  damage  if  the  unit  is 
used to descend the stairs with the controls in the ascent position. 

The unit also features electronic overload protection preventing ascent with too heavy 
a load. 

The Liftkar SAL has two ascending speed settings (slow and fast 

– with a speed of up 

to  48  stairs  per  minute),  plus  a  wide  variety  of  model  options,  lifting  capacities  and 
additional accessories. 

In other words, a professional for professionals! 

In order to update you about product news as well as technical changes (e.g. options, 
accessories) we ask you to register your product online.
