Chosen for their superior performance during trials, the 4WSLs handle heavy 6m timber packs across the sloped 5.5-acre site with ease. Their JCB axle and automatic locking differential ensure reliable traction, even in wet conditions.

JT, the UK’s top shower tray manufacturer, was the first to put Combilift’s new Combi-CS pedestrian stacker into action, following its IMHX launch.

It’s a great improvement on the previous system: the ability to pick from racking and load directly to…
