Features of the MP200 Scaffold Winch

The MP200 differs from normal scaffold hoists in that the main body of the hoist does not clamp to the scaffold tower, it sits on the ground.  So why would this be better than a standard scaffold hoist? The answer is quite simple! Imagine carrying a scaffold hoist to the top of a build via a scaffold tower! This would be a heavy, awkward and possibly hazardous task and not one to look forward to.

With the new MP200 all you need to carry up the tower is a lightweight frame for the rope to pass through and offers the transmission support it needs to lift the loads. The frame simply clamps to the scaffold pole whilst the main hoist unit sits firmly at ground level.

This hoist is quicker and easier to set up and also safer for the construction worker. The hoists can lift loads of up to 200 kg with 80 metres of working rope length. 40 metres is the standard height of lift if the hoist body is at ground level, if it is carried (it weighs around 40kg!) to a higher level, then the height of lift will increase.
