What is a PowerLift?
The PowerLift is an ultra-light and strong push-around lift. It’s the most portable powered lift available for indoor use.

PowerTrak™ is the track our gearboxes use to climb the mast sections. It is a patented drive system which features a specially designed gearbox, coupled to a replaceable steel track.
Is the PowerLift an aerial work platform (AWP)?
Yes, the PowerLift is a type of AWP and a type of Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP), meeting the respective standards for that category of equipment in the various markets ReechCraft serves.

A manual crank is provided inside the basket to manually lower the unit. It is recommended to keep an extra battery while operating the PowerLift.
