Hoist Material Handling’s line of BIG TRUCKS starts with a strong foundation. The modular design of the LCH Series provides excellent serviceability without sacrificing strength or durability. The LCH Series has been designed and tested to meet or exceed current, worldwide regulations for stability, sound levels and safety.

Anchoring the LCH Series is the 100%-welded steel chassis, which boasts heavy steel cross supports to distributing weight evenly throughout the truck. Bolt-on components, such as fuel and hydraulic tanks, provide additional durability and optimal heat dissipation, as well as easy removal and attachment for repairs or shipping. Integrated lifting points also allow for safe handling and transport.
