 Versatile adaptability to any task
A variety of proven load handling attachments facilitate optimum and
flexible adaptation of the “Manulift” chain hoist to meet your needs.
They range from normal load hooks and various pantograph-type
tongs to parallel gripper systems. The DCM-Pro Manulift can be used
with specially developed load handling attachments. The universal
coupling pin is used to connect customer-designed attachments. It
is provided with an M12 internal thread for connecting special load
handling attachments.

Manulift load handling attachments can also be connected to the

DC-Pro chain hoist load hook by means of an adapter. The versatility
and flexibility of the new Demag chain hoist provide for improved
load handling efficiency at the workplace.
