TKT Models

TKT models address all the concerns a liftgate operator faces. With self-leveling and power down functions, the lift is simple to use and reliable. The large platforms easily accommodate pallet-sized loads. And, the wide-arm, dual-cylinder design assures sturdy and consistent lifting action.
