HIGH-LIFT LOADERS
"MOST VERSATILE PIECES OF EQUIPMENT WE OWN!"

Daniel O'Connell's Sons Inc. of Holyoke, Mass, built the new Southwest Complex at the University of Mass. at Amherst, as a joint venture with George F. Driscoll Co., Inc. of New York, New York. John Leith (see inset), General Superintendent for Daniel O'Connell's Sons Inc. says, "Our Lull High Lifts (we own five) were used for just about everything short of picking apples on this job... they are the most versatile pieces of equipment we own. From the foundation on up we used our Lull High Lifts for setting and removing gang forms... pouring concrete supplying the masons, feeding the elevators towing equipment... caulking windows plus 101 other material handling jobs that come up around a project of this nature."

Like the man says, Lull High Lifts are unmatched for versatility... and for dependability and efficiency, too! They lift bigger loads higher reach farther forward safely and smoothly at any height. And can be equipped with concrete hoppers, buckets, workman's platforms, etc. over twenty different attachments to do more jobs better and faster than any other material handling machines a contractor can own!

8 different 2 and 4-wheel drive models with capacities to 6,000 lbs. lifting to 40-foot heights. Exclusive Parra-Plane reach action moves loads up to 46" in or out at any height without machine travel. Longer forward reach up to 15 736" in front of the wheels. Reversomatic transmission with Torque converter drive for fast shuttle action. Full time power steering brakes independent wheel. Heavy duty construction throughout frame, criss-cross and tubular braced lift arms prevent sway and twist.
