Not all the functionality of a hi lift but a lot lighter and easier to use. Expensive though.

Well, handy mans are pretty heavy for a reason, but this looks like a first model or so, probably could use a stand and some attachments, who knows in a few years and lots of proven field work could be the new high lift, but for now the handy man has been there when allot of us have needed it----but one never says no to anything that may keep us "adventuring" along out there, especially if it's lighter!

That's what I discovered in my incident. Now that I'm carrying the Hi Lift and the Lift-Mate I'll do better next time.
No more incidents, Mark? That was one of the best threads I've ever seen and probably helped allot of folks! Got your bags of kitty litter in a garbage bag too-got to make you safe, so the adventures keep coming!

Thanks for the reminder about kitty litter -- I'd forgotten and haven't added that yet to my bag of tricks, but I will.No more incidents, Mark?

No more incidents yet, though I did tempt fate a bit last week when I crossed a semi-frozen stream at Potts Ranch, Nevada... But I'll cover that in a trip report in the next day or so.

Yeah, but when someone breaks out their hi lift and you break out your fancy blind me chrome bling lifter, just think how everyone will bow down at your magnificence. Totally worth it in my mind. Speaking of minds anyone see mine laying around anywhere
It's probably near mine-the one laying next to the hi lift jack handle that kicked back and knocked it out as I was blinded by all the all that chrome and forgot to duck-- ! !
