Together with the backing of the largest independent tail lift manufacturer in the world, you can expect exceptional results from the new name in UK tail lifts: MAXON.
MAXON CAPABILITIES
With an array of product capabilities, Maxon is able to meet demands for variety.
Cantilever tail lifts offer full hydraulic operation with four cylinders to ensure a stable load and level ride when raising and low ering. Fully hydraulic opening and closing eliminates manual effort, and hydraulic auto-tilt automatically tilts the platform tip at ground level. These lifts are available in a range of capacities and configurations and can be equipped with remote hand-held control, rear seal kit, and other options to customise.

Tuk-A-Way® lifts employ single or dual hydraulic rams and clever geometry for compact design that stows manually beneath the truck or trailer. A combined steel/aluminum platform is easy to fold, thanks to a roller lever arm and coiled torsion spring. Tuk-A-Way® lifts require minimal chassis cutting, and a body floor plate (when provided) enables the tail lift to be stowed completely within the body length.

Slidelift® models stow completely underneath a semi-trailer, to easily accommodate a wide variety of door configurations. Full hydraulic operation, two cylinders and a slim, flat-profile platform alleviates tilting and minimises the access ramp angle. Multiple hand controls and Smartstow® function enable simplicity in operation. Ideal for dock use on trailers with dry-freight boxes, curtain sides, or refrigerated bodies.
OUR COMMITMENT TO THE FUTURE
Maxon is expanding globally with the infrastructure to support large international fleets with innovative, price-competitive products. This translates to new products, outstanding customer service, and additional resources to meet your specific needs.
