ROUST-A-BOUT™ LIFT

The SUMNER Material Lifts Roust-A-Bout™ stands as a unique lifting solution capable of positioning heavy loads in tight or obstructed locations (the lift fits through a standard door size) – tasks where conventional lifts fall short. Designed to be operated by a single person, this innovative system can lift up to 1,500 lbs / 680 kg and reach heights from 15 ft / 4.57 m to 25 ft / 7.62 m, depending on the model. With its rugged 8″ casters and variable 4-speed winch system, the Roust-A-Bout™ ensures precise load placement and easy mobility, even in challenging environments.

This lift is ideal for use in both workshops and job sites, and its modular construction makes it simple to disassemble for transport or storage. The vertical adjustment feature, using dual winches, offers independent control over load elevation and mast height, allowing for versatile positioning. It’s available in powder-coated and galvanized finishes to meet diverse worksite conditions.
