Pump Handle Bag Lift

Pump Handle Bag Lift MISCELLANEOUS EQUIPMENT Forklifts 20-5-8 Lifting bulk seed bags up high enough to dump into drills, air seeders or bulk seed handlers requires a high-lift boom with lots of lift capacity. Marshall Litchfield, Macomb, Ill., came up with a unique "no hydraulics" bag lift that fits his forklift. He calls it his "pump handle" lift because of the shape of the pivoting lift arm, which connects by chain to the forklift mast. When the mast is raised, the chain pulls down on the lift arm, raising the bag-carrying end of the arm.
