Click to enlarge Click to enlarge Click to enlarge In the pictures above, the Ver-T-Lift is being used as both a confined space safety device while the employee is in the manhole and also to raise and lower equipment and materials into the manhole. With the dual winch line attachments on the lifting arm, you can use multiple winches, one to attached to the harness while the employee is in the manhole and another to attach to the equipment (jackhammer) or to the material being lowered and raised (bucket of lining material). Note that the employee is raised completely out of the manhole, unlike the tripod style where you can only raise the employee partially out of the manhole.

ODT set the Ver-T-Lift up inside the room, hooked the Saf-T-Lift to the motor and raised the motor up. With the swiveling arm, the motor swung above the pipes and was lowered to the floor.  There was little to no physical effort in the removal of these motors and the complete operation took approximately two (2) hours.

The strength and versitility of the Ver-T-Lift changed an impossibility into a reality for a very good friend and made her very happy!
