What is the maximum capacity for a hand powered counterbalanced manlift?

The maximum capacity for a hand powered counterbalanced manlift is indeed 135 Kg. This limit is established to ensure safe operation and prevent overloading of the device. Hand powered counterbalanced manlifts are often used in situations where mobility and flexibility are required for workers to perform tasks at height, and their design focuses on allowing a single operator to control the lift effectively.

Exceeding the 135 Kg limit could lead to stability issues, making it dangerous for the operator and anyone working nearby. The specified weight capacity takes into consideration not only the weight of personnel but also any tools or materials they might need to carry while using the manlift.

Understanding these weight capacities is essential for safety compliance and effective operation when working with elevating devices.
