The MARSHALLTOWN Drywall Lift allows one person to lift a drywall panel that is up to 4ft x 16ft in size,
without assistance. The panel can be raised to a maximum height of 11ft for attachment to level ceilings-
or (with the lift's cradle tilted) to sloped ceilings or side walls.
The lift's cradle lowers to 34 inches off the floor for easy panel loading, and can support up to 150 lbs.
These instructions explain how to assemble the Drywall Lift, operate it, disassemble it after use for easy
transport and storage.
