The Vestil L-270-DC-HD Tote Lift is a DC-powered lifting solution designed to raise and lower open-bottom skids, boxes, and baskets with a maximum uniform capacity of 3,000 lb. The unit is built with solid steel construction to withstand rugged material-handling environments, and its on-board battery charger supports convenient recharging for continuous operation. The lift operates via a 12-volt DC system and features a rocker switch for intuitive control, enabling quick vertical movement to position loads precisely where needed.
Key design features include automatic side stabilizers that engage when the forks reach a defined height, helping to prevent unwanted movement during elevated handling. Front rollers and two rear swivel casters combine to provide portable maneuverability, while rear wheels with a composite arrangement (poly-on-steel) offer stable travel across shop floors. The folded profile enables compact storage when not in use, and the unit’s overall dimensions position the forks at 27 inches wide and 45 inches long, with a lowered height of 3.5 inches and a raised height of 31.5 inches for clearances in overhead work.
Practical applications include lifting open-bottom pallets, totes, and related containers in warehouses, manufacturing lines, and distribution centers where mindful load placement and controlled raising/lowering are essential. The side stabilizers lock at raised height to maintain load stability during high-position handling, and the unit is designed to be pushed by hand to the load or repositioned between work zones. When selecting compatible loads and operations, verify the 3,000 lb capacity aligns with your actual load plus any pallet or container accessories to ensure safe, controlled handling.
