Introducing the
twin weight lifter

The TMH-5000 Twin Material Hoist erects faster... at less cost.

The TMH-5000 Twin Material Hoist provides facilities of a double well tower at far less erection cost...it can lift two 5000 lb. loads from a single tower. You get up to 75% more machine utilization than from a single platform hoist, increasing productivity and profits. Only one operator is needed to control both lifts. Automatic floor selectors are standard to conveniently spot each load.

You can use two platforms, two bottom-dump 1 yd. concrete buckets, or one of each. The lifts, powered by a gasoline engine or an electric motor, move independently of each other at an average speed of 175 fpm up to a maximum height of 500'.

The remote power unit can be located in selected out-of-the-way locations 25 feet from the tower, independent of the operator who can be up to 75 feet away from the tower for better visual control.
