HOIST-A-MATIC
Opera-GH is designed with a self-engaging chain hoist with one step operation and automatic power cut-off.
No floor level disconnect is required which simplified operation and installation
The standard Opera-GH is provided with a chain hoist located on the right of the operator. If handing requires the
chain hoist to be on the left (rolling doors, left operator hood mounting for ex.), it could easily be transferred from
Right Hand side to Left Hand side in the field.
