The Vestil TMS-20-DC Tilt Master Straddle is a dc-powered material handling device designed to lift, tilt, and transport loaded containers or pallets without the need for a fork truck or lift table. With a 2000 lb uniform capacity and a 90-degree tilt range, it enables ergonomic access to loads at varying heights and angles, helping workers position boxes and totes for loading, unloading, or transfer between workstations. The unit’s tight profile and folding ergonomic handle support close approach to loads and compact storage, while its onboard 12V DC power system includes a charger and a battery indicator for simple, self-contained operation.
Construction and distinguishing features include a steel frame finished in blue, heavy-duty rollers and phenolic wheels that promote smooth mobility, and a combination of two rigid and two swivel casters to balance stability with maneuverability. The fork area is sized to accommodate a broad range of container widths, with a fork adjustment range noted by the minimum and maximum inner dimensions, and a specified load center for predictable handling. The machine is designed to function as a transporter, moving completed products between workstations to reduce downtime waiting for forklift availability. The fold-down handle lowers when not in use, improving access in tight spaces and aligning with ergonomic workflows.
Practical use cases include handling filled totes, baskets, and similar containers in compact spaces where forklift access is limited. Operators should consider the specified load capacity, tilt angle, and wheel/ caster arrangement when planning movements to maintain stability, especially when maneuvering loaded units in tighter aisles. The unit is listed as a standalone powered tilter with a defined power source and wheel configuration, and its packaging is indicated as a per-unit (each) basis for procurement and inventory control.
