How Does A Ratchet Deck Work?
To reposition a deck, a forklift is positioned so the forks enter via two apertures. Lifting the decks upwards automatically unlocks it, allowing it to be raised to the desired incremental height. If the deck needs to be lowered, the operator takes it to the topmost increment where it automatically unlocks for lowering to the required position. When the forklift is removed, the ratchet mechanism automatically locks.


Decks Are Easily Removable
Decks can be removed completely in minutes, converting to a conventional single deck trailer if required.
