The innovative new range of ToughLift® Material Lifts are designed for lifting materials to enable work to be undertaken at height. The machines can be used indoors and outdoors on solid level ground.
ToughLift® Material Lifts are available in 4 models: ML-10, ML-15, ML-20, and ML-25. The principal difference between the models is their maximum lift heights of 3.49, 4.98, 6.46, and 7.94 metres respectively. All machines are supplied with the Standard Forks load handling attachment, and the ML-20 and ML-25 models are also fitted with stabilisers. With the front legs, and the stabilisers if fitted, in the stowed position all models are just 0.8 metres wide and 2 metres high.
All 4 models include the following features as standard:
-
Anodised lightweight aluminium mast.

Financing your Material Lift purchase
There is a wide range of funding your material lift purchase. Here are some of the most common types - further information can be found here
Contract Hire - No initial capital outlay and regular monthly payments, typically over three to five years. LOLER testing and servicing (link) is typically included in the payment.
Hire Purchase - Spreading the cost by paying a deposit along with the VAT element at the start, then spreading the remaining balance over an agreed period (3 to 5 years is common)
Lease Purchase - a form of hire purchase where the larger balloon payment is at the end of the finance. Typically results in lower monthly payments for your material lift
Operating Lease - Long term hire with smaller initial finance outlay. Material lift returns at the end of the lease.
Rent to Buy - enables you to use the cherry picker for an agreed period before deciding whether to purchase it or simply return.

LOLER Testing
LOLER stands for “Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998”. These regulations were created under the Health and Safety at Work Act with the aim to reduce the risk of injury from using lifting equipment at work.
LOLER regulations apply to people and companies who operate or have control over lifting equipment, whether they own the equipment or not.
A LOLER inspection involves a “thorough examination” of the equipment in question to ensure it is fit for purpose and safe to use. The inspections must be carried out by a competent person and any defects must be reported to the person responsible for the equipment and the relevant enforcing authority.
Lifting equipment used at work also comes under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER). PUWER requires that all equipment provided for use at work is suitable and safe for the intended use, is used by adequately trained people, is maintained correctly and is accompanied by suitable health and safety measures.
Lifting equipment must comply with both PUWER and LOLER regulations, which include extra requirements specific to lifting equipment.
