Go Lift 3 Detailed List of Features and Benefits
- Self Propelled Walkie Stacker
- Compare to manual push
- Allows any size worker to safely and quickly move heavy loads.
- Machine drives load, even up hills or over uneven surfaces.
- Greater productivity.
- Single Column, Hand Jeweled, Aluminum Mast
- Compare to Steel or Two Column Designs
- Aluminum is lightweight making the machine lighter and easier to maneuver.
- Lighter weight allows user to move heavier loads of material.
- Single column provides excellent forward visibility for safe operation.
- Hand jewelling makes machine attractive for use in showrooms, offices or in backroom industrial environments.
- Shows attention to detail and indicative of the hand built quality of machine.
- Non corrosive, low maintenance.
- Quieter operation.
- Height of mast fits all standard doorways and elevators.
- High capacity load tested strength.
- Enclosed 24V DC Programmable Drive and Lift Power System
- Compare to Hydraulic, Open or AC Power
- No acid or hydraulic leaks.
- No maintenance, except charging battery.
- Programmable card allows performance characteristics to be customized per machine to match the application needs (ie lifting speed, acceleration, deceleration, etc.)
- Sealed electronics box houses battery and electric system, allowing for safe indoor and outdoor operation.
- Includes two 12 volt 18 amp hour batteries in series for 2 times the work time of other machines. (Optional upgrade of batteries for even longer run time.)
- Includes AC battery charger and colored led battery life indicator.
- Optional 12V or 24V powered tooling can be attached to machine for increased versatility and post purchase upgradeability.
- Durable Steel, Adjustable Lifting Forks
- Compare to Other Materials and Designs
- Standard forks are all steel.
- Back rest securely holds load on during transport.
- Lowers all the way to the floor.
- Quick change tool attachment allows machine to be fitted with multiple tool options for maximum efficiency.
- Compact Design
- Small Footprint Offers More Versatility
- Self adjusting handles make machine more compact for storage.
- Able to operate in small, confined areas.
- Able to ship anywhere.
- 6” Rear Swivel Casters & 13” Front Pneumatic Drive Tires
- Compare to Smaller and/or Swivel Casters in Front
- Offers steering and load stability, even in tight spaces.
- Swivel casters placed in the rear rather than the front provide operator with easy, safe steering capability using the larger muscle groups of the legs rather than the more injury prone muscles of the upper body.
- Larger diameter wheels allow the machine to move over uneven surfaces, carpet, floor transitions and debris on the floor.
- Front fixed wheels keep machine moving in straight line, eliminating the tendency of front swivel casters to “crab walk”.
- Larger wheels in front provide load stability, eliminating the risk of the machine tipping forward when it encounters obstacles.
- Optional solid drive tires offer puncture proof option.
- Optional Turning Brakes offer better operation across side sloping surfaces.
- Optional Joystick Design allows for one handed operation.
- Optional heavier counter weights allow for moving heavier loads, 500+lbs!

Operators Manual
A copy of the GoLift operator’s manual is available prior to ordering and can be supplied in PDF file format. If you have questions about the operation or safety considerations we suggest that you download the manual prior to ordering. Make sure you ask any questions you have about any or our vertical material lifts prior to ordering. Remember, our goal is to provide you with the perfect solution for your material handling needs.
Battery Life/Charge:
Many of our products use batteries as a power source. The life of batteries is variable and is dependant on use and charge maintenance. It is always best to keep a battery at full charge. We recommend that units requiring batteries have the battery charger connected at all times when the devise in not in use. This will insure the batteries are fully charged and ready when needed.
The amount of service time available from a single charge on batteries is difficult to predict given the wide variety of jobs these machines are designed to perform. Units that are self propelled and equipped with lifting capability place a greater demand on batteries than those with only powered lift. Often a custom tool is designed to work with our line of GoLifts. When these tools also require power from the on-board batteries some additional battery power reserve may be needed.
Factors that impact the life of a single battery charge include travel distance, loads lifted, usage cycles and accessory tools. Weather can also have an affect on battery life. Cold weather tends to drain power supply quickly.
When it is expected that a GoLift of any of our battery powered machines will be used in heavy duty cycle conditions it would be best to consult with us prior to placing your order. In this way we can discuss your specific application and determine if greater battery capacity is needed.
GoLifts are designed to perform under normal conditions on a hard floor of roadway surface. The maximum incline for an operating surface is 5%. Operating on inclines will reduce the life of a battery charge as the motor is asked for greater power output.
Drive Tires:
Standard drive tires are pneumatic or inflated drive tires. Maintaining proper inflation will increase battery life. Optional hard rubber drive tires are available. The hard rubber drive tire is an aluminum hub with molded rubber surface. Hard rubber drive tires are suggested if the machine will be operated where tire puncture is a possibility or where very precise load placement is a concern. An example of this would be when the GoLift is fitted with a tool handler and used to position dies while during installation on CNC machines, injection molding machines or any other precise positioning.
Operators manual:
A copy of the GoLift operator’s manual is available prior to ordering and can be supplied in PDF file format. If you have questions about the operation or safety considerations we suggest that you download the manual prior to ordering. Make sure you ask any questions you have about any or our material handling machines prior to ordering. Do not place an order until you are comfortable and satisfied that your selection will be able to operate safely in the intended use area. Remember, our goal is to provide you with the perfect solution for your material handling needs.
