Description
The HDT-8 (Heavy Duty Tower) has been designed to bear heavy loads of 350kg up to 8,2m with the biggest steel base of the TL Series lifting towers, and 6 sections of 6082-T6 aluminum alloy and the largest aluminum profile of the TL Series.
Designed to lift heavy loads from the ground, and keep them fix at high altitudes.
This lifting tower is very easy to drive with its 4 swivel castors, at the base, and 2 more swivel wheels on the front legs.
It has powerful stabilizers in the legs, to level the lifter in difficult terrains, with big slopes.
Black finish, with epoxy powder paint offering great resistance.
It has two adjustable steel load forks that support the load, either supported on top of it, or hung underneath.
VMB offers you a wide range of accessories, which combined with this lifter allows you to increase the number of applications. One of the most used accessories, for example, is the RH-5 transport kit, which serves to tilt the lifter, horizontally and make the transportation in vans, trucks, etc. easier.
The HDT-8 features the ALS Red locks of VMB, which automatically block each section while lifting. And the inertial pendulum ILS safety system for the aluminum lifting carriage. It also has the special SRS Retaining system, patented by VMB, which guarantees that the towerlift’s aluminum sections will rise in order, and most importantly: automatically.
VMB offers you a 2-year warranty and stock of spare parts for 5 years. In addition we have our own factory in Spain, where we offer service to review and repair your lifter.
The HDT-8 is a front-loading, lifter designed to lift a maximum weight of 350kg (772lb) to a maximum height of 8.2m (26.9ft)
Manufactured in Our factory, in Valencia (Spain) it is comprised of five premium grade 6082-T6 aluminium masts finished in black, epoxy, powder coated paint for greater resistance to the elements for both indoor and outdoor use. Operated by an AL-KO winch with automatic brake and guided through our custom-made bearing pullies via a galvanized steel cable. Our patented ALS (Auto Lock Security) system ensures maximum safety. The lift is automatically locked at intermittent heights via the ALS bolt so that the lifter does not have to rely on the cable for security making it impossible for the load to fall. It also comprises our SRS (Sequence Retainer System) retaining each section down, until the previous one is fully raised ensuring that each section rises one at a time as opposed to all together. A third safety feature is also included in this lift; The ILS (Inertia Lock System), a pendulum that acts much in the same way as a seatbelt and blocks the lift in case of a sudden fall. This lifter differs to others in the series as it rises with 0º inclination.
The lifter is both easy to transport and store due to its compact solid, steel base, with pockets for the outriggers, each with their own swivel leveller with non-slip rubber base and integrated castors for easier manoeuvrability once the outriggers are in place. Four 360º first grade, durable castors are fitted easing the transport of the lifter. A spirit level is also located on the base for levelling orientation during set-up.
Two 75cm, 180º rotatable steel loading arms are included to carry the load in two positions depending on the application and are attached to the reinforced steel lifting carriage. All clips and pins are now secured to the lift with a durable nylon covered, steel lanyard so the user does not have to worry about losing these parts.
A number of accessories for the HDT-8 are available and can be viewed below.
