Revolutionary user-friendly: The new pallet truck FLEX MOTION by Pfaff-silberblau

Kissing and Hannover, 27 May 2008 – With its FLEX MOTION, the Pfaff-silberblau Hebezeugfabrik GmbH, Kissing/Germany, is raising the bar regarding performance and user-friendliness to new heights once again: The innovative pallet truck also proves to be unbelievably easy to handle with its maximum load of 2.5 t thanks to the height-adjustable steering handle, second lowering handle and an easily exchangeable solid rubber steering handle rollers. The prototype of the revolutionary user-friendly FLEX MOTION can be seen at CeMAT 2008 at Stand B58 of Pfaff-silberblau in Hall 12. With the height-adjustable steering handle of the FLEX MOTION there is finally a pallet truck that is as flexible as its range of applications. Depending on the height of the user, the handle on the steering handle can be adjusted individually. This allows much more relaxed posture, making it child's play to work with the FLEX MOTION, even when continuously using it and fully utilising the load capacity of 2.5 t: The steering handle can be fully extended for lifting. With a completely retracted steering handle, the FLEX MOTION turns out to be a space saver and when being manoeuvred, can get into even the smallest of storage places. Another comfort-plus – and absolutely unique in the world of pallet trucks – is the second operating lever which is only available at Pfaff-silberblau. No matter what side the FLEX MOTION is being pulled or pushed from and regardless of whether the user is left-handed or right-handed: The lowering unit is easy to reach from all sides of the stacker and can be operated extremely accurately. The wheels used on the FLEX MOTION are also revolutionary and user-friendly: The solid rubber steering handle rollers are mounted on the axis with quick-release locks which allows them to be exchanged in a matter of seconds. And the icing on the cake is that the FLEX MOTION is equipped with a spare pair of polyamide exchange rollers right from the start, allowing it to be adapted to different floorings in a flash. Its many exclusive properties make the FLEX MOTION an ideal tool for transport and logistics which can be used virtually anywhere and by anyone. Pfaff-silberblau is presenting the prototype of the new stacker at this year's CeMAT in Hannover for the first time. Apart from that, to be seen at Stand B58 in Hall 12: The new electric pallet truck JOKER CLASSIC with a manual lift, the new design electric stacker series EGV ESL as well as the hand wire rope winch OMEGA Ex and the wall-mounted rack and pinion jack ZWW Ex in ATEX design.
