Classic Power Drives, long-time market favorites, provide reliable and durable performance in gas and electric models.

Assembled to the 3rd and 5th track cross ties, they make the Platform Hoist safe and convenient for use on unlevel landscapes. The safe two handle design requires minimal effort and keeps the operator away from the load. The brake rope design permits feathering of the brake, resulting in a smooth, controlled platform descent.
