Roofing Hoist Systems
Since 1940, roofing contractors have relied on Smith Hoist for efficient lifting machinery. Now, with the addition of Beta Max technology, Smith hoists have become even more versatile and dependable.
For the first time, Smith Hoist offers roofers an electric swing beam with Beta Max reliability. Manual models are now engineered to accommodate future mechanical or electric upgrades. Other improvements in hoist design include the features mentioned below.
Lightweight Smith Hoist components have always been easy to assemble. Now, to facilitate on-site installation, an optional "installer's Helper" Package includes a small portable hoists that lifts the swing beam hoisting apparatus to its destination.
For dependability, versatility, and ease of operation, Smith Hoist products are truly "better than ever".
NEW WINCH ASSEMBLY (shown with Honda engine) is compatible with Briggs, Wisconsin, and most other engines. Previously sold Smith winch assemblies can be retrofitted to accommodate any of them. The Smith winch assembly also functions as part of the counterbalancing system.
HYDRAULIC OPERATION sets the standard for operator ease and efficiency, and also reduces the chance of error because the operator is positioned to see the load being lifted and lowered at all times.
