We’re Here When You Need Us
The Vestil L-270-DC-HD-CTD adds the part most tote lifters leave out: traction drive. DC power raises the load and DC power moves it, so the operator steers 3,000 lb instead of shoving it. On long runs or a sloped floor, that is the difference between a machine people use and one they avoid.
Why This Tote Lifter
- Powered traction drive — the operator steers rather than pushes
- 12V DC powered lift — push-button raise and lower
- 3,000 lb capacity — the highest in the L-270 family
- 27" O.D. x 45" forks for open-bottom skids, boxes and baskets
- Two gel batteries and a 115V charger included — plug into any wall outlet

Check Your Load First
A tote lifter is built for open-bottom skids, boxes, baskets and totes — not standard closed-bottom pallets. If your loads sit on ordinary pallets, tell us and we'll quote a stacker instead. If you don't need the traction drive, the standard L-270-DC-HD does the same lift for less.
