What it is for

The Flex-Lifter lifts the belt from underneath, without gripping the edges or the cover, so it does not damage the belt. The scissor lift raises up to 1,800 kg on the M and L models or 2,725 kg on the XL; with the return lift bar it lifts return belts up to 680 kg.

It is designed to work with common underground idler and conveyor structure types and with the CEMA standard.
