Description
-The Mighty Lift ML55M is a manual hydraulic pallet jack rated to move 5,500 lb across warehouse floors, loading docks, and staging areas. Its forks measure 27 inches wide by 48 inches long with 14.37 inches between them, sized to enter standard 48 by 40 inch pallets. The forks lower to 2.9 inches to slide under loaded decks and raise to 7.6 inches for transport.
The build is geared for everyday duty. A reinforced, high-tensile steel frame carries the rated load, and a corrosion-resistant galvanized hydraulic pump with built-in overload protection keeps lifting consistent in demanding conditions. A 210-degree steering arc paired with 7-inch polyurethane steering wheels keeps the unit moving through tight aisles and around dock plates, while a cushioned descending mechanism lowers loads under control instead of dropping them.
