The Ups and Downs of loading your generator

,
May 7, 2012
By oktwodogs
from Broken Arrow, OK
"Faced with nearly an impossible task of loading and unloading a 150lb generator by myself, I purchased the LiftAll generator lifting harness. I own a portable lifting device that mounts in the hitch receiver of my truck, but It still required two people for this task, because the generator would pitch and swing wildly side to side in a unsafe condition. After receiving the LiftAll lifting harness installing it was simple and easy. My generator now loads and unloads in a controlled and level position. Using the LiftAll I am able to accomplish this job by myself. I would rate the LiftAll at 5+ stars and highly recommend this product to anyone needing to lift a portable generator."

Generator lifting harness

,
November 17, 2008
By Machere
from Zirconia, NC
"I buy most everything tool wise from Northern Tool and I found this generator lifting harness which comes in very handy when moving my generator around my tree farm to power special tools that need to be run on AC power. The harness allows me to sling it under my root rake from the front of my tractor and it keeps the generator safe and secure while keeping it from tipping and spilling any gas or oil. I carry it on some rough ground in the mountains of NC and it has worked extreamely well for me. I would highly recommend this harness if you need to move your generator or pump around your farm or property."

Not just for generators

,
August 26, 2008
By farmerwannabee
from Rural Pennsylvania
"I originally purchased this handy sling to make my 5500 watt generator more portable. I didn't want to purchase the wheel kit because I didn't want to sacrifice the additional floor space where I normally store the generator. After using the sling several times to move the generator I kept thinking how well constructed and user friendly it was. Other uses soon developed such as carrying my utility tractor's belly mower to winter storage. The double hooks with their heavy coating seem to grip securely to whatever I have that needs to be carried and there is never any damage or scraped paint. The integral spreader tubes always seem to make any load I lift stay level and stable while I transport the item with my loader bucket and hitch reciever clamp with lift ring. This great pair of Northern products has seen a lot of work around my shop."

LiftAll Generator Lifting Harness

,
January 21, 2008
By 13244930
from Rock Hill, NY
"I purchased this Lifting Harness to use in lifting my 10K Watt generator in and out of my truck. This harness is well constructed with very strong and flexible nylon web straps. The rubber coated double left and right hooks prevent the harness from coming unhooked. The way the harness is constructed keeps the hooks and straps properly spaced so they don't slip or slide together.
When lifting my generator with this lifting harness, my generator stays level and doesn't tilt to one side, the lifting harness keeps the generator level when setting it down to the ground.
The straps on the lifting harness are long enough to handle any size generator. If you are loading into a space with limited height, like my box truck or a van, you can use the straps to wrap around the frame railing and secure the straps by hooking the double left and right hooks around each strap. This shortens the length of the straps so you can move the generator into a van or a box truck where height space is limited.
There's probably a thousand uses for this lifting harness, for loads up to the 500 Lbs. rating."

Genset Lifting Harness

,
October 8, 2007
By RobertH
from MidSouth
"Had to lift 3 portable diesel gensets into trailers and without the harness it would have taken considerably longer and more expense to fab or buy another sling harness. Coated hooks prevented any damage to the frame paint. Worked well and even forklift could be used instead of an engine or overhead hoist to lift portable genset. Well-made harness."
