Lifting such heavy and bulky loads can naturally pose hazards from time to time, so a thermostatic overload cut-out ensures the Silverstorm Electric Hoist is never put under too much strain. For user safety it is fitted with an emergency stop switch, quickly withdrawing power and ceasing movement when pressed. You can also make use of the automatic switch-off lever so that the machine powers off at the end of its operation.

This Silverline 500W Electric Hoist 250kg is guaranteed for a period of 30 days from date of purchase against a fault developing in either the materials or the workmanship during manufacture.

A heavy 250kg item can be lifted at a rate of 4m per minute, meaning you'll be on to the next task before you know it (or have plenty of time for a sneaky coffee break!)

Perfect for use in garages and workshops, the Silverstorm Electric Hoist, with its efficient 500W motor, lifts loads of 250kg up to 6m high (when used with the supplied return pulley), or lighter loads of 125kg up to 12m in the air. This is more impressive when you consider the whole tool weighs less than 10kg, so transporting it from one site to another can be done quickly and safely with minimal risk of putting your back out!

As a homeowner or DIYer, this hoist is perfect for lifting and lowering heavy or bulky items in or out of the loft, as well as moving large items up and down stairs - you'll wonder why you didn't buy one before as you find use after use for it.
