MagTech Manhole Buddy (Lifter)
Manhole Buddy uses a folding trolley and a choice of cover attachments to unseat and lift manhole covers.
Magnetic attachment has been part of the Manhole Buddy concept since its inception. A Manhole Buddy MagTech system is:
- Easy to store and transport
- Just two items
- both hand portable
- fits easily into the boot of any car
- Fast to deploy
- The trolly unfolds in seconds
- no assembly parts
- no keyholes to be cleaned out
- Works on any metallic cover
- suitable for covers of all shapes and sizes including most split covers
- Is efficient and Flexible
- The cover unseating facility and rotating lifting hanger are key to its high productivity
- Fast Yet Safe
- the operator stands well clear of the raised cover and chamber opening
Consider the fact that the majority of metallic civers will be lifted in less time than it usually takes to prepare the keyholes for traditional key-based lifting.
At the heart of MagTec configeration are the magnets. They dont require any external power or recharging. A simple lever with a safety lock provides on - off control.
- Mega Magnet - 600kgs Holding Power
- Supreme Magnet -409kgs Holding Power
The MagTec solution is fast and flexible. As with all Manhole Buddy soliction, it pays to use the high leverage facility on the trolly to unseat the cover. With the MagTec, place the magnet at the edge of the cover and engage the inner high leverage lifting pins with teh sloping slots on the lifting hanger. When the cover has been unseated reposition the magnet certrally for balanced cover lifting.
Please note - The maximum width of manhole cover is 850mm
