Palfinger Hooklift allow one chassis to load, unload or dump a variety of bodies. Our hoists can easily switch from a dump body, to a flatbed, back to a salt spreader or to any customized body in less than 30 seconds.
Dual pivot points allow for pick-up/set-off mode or a true dump mode as illustrated in the photo on the top right. If you need to unload containers in addition to dumping containers then a dual pivot model would be required.
The operator can approach and connect with a container within a 60 degree arc and there is never a need for the driver to manhandle a cable or to be between the truck and the container which can be dangerous.
Even with the increased payload, several models within this range are still under the CDL minimum chassis GVW requirements.
