Heavy lifting in confined spaces
Merritts’ acquisition of new Versa-Lift truck technology adds to the company’s already extensive fleet. It has enabled the company to expand into more markets as it can be operated in sensitive environments, thanks to its virtually silent operation and zero emissions. The new 60/80 Versa can lift up to 36t making it suitable for the lifting of heavy items in confined spaces.
The trucks operate on a moving counterweight principle allowing the truck to be up to 50% smaller than trucks using conventional static counterweight technology.
This enables the truck to lift extremely heavy items either with standard forks or a specially designed jib attachment while remaining compact, therefore aiding transport and manoeuvrability.
