Hydraulic Lift Trolley Scheppach TBL400 — 400 kg capacity

Scheppach TBL400 is a hydraulic lift trolley with a rated capacity of 400 kg designed for lifting and transporting heavy loads in workshops, garages and maintenance facilities. The trolley combines a hydraulic lifting mechanism with a compact wheeled chassis to enable controlled vertical lifting and short-distance transport of engines, machinery parts and other bulky items where stable support and mobility are required.

Advantages

The hydraulic system provides smooth, incremental lifting and lowering, reducing manual effort and enabling precise positioning of loads. A compact footprint and caster-equipped base offer good manoeuvrability in confined workshop spaces. Robust construction and stable support reduce tilting risk during lift and transport. The design is focused on practical handling, safety during vertical movement and compatibility with common workshop tasks.

Suitable for

• Lifting and moving engines and transmissions
• Handling heavy machinery components during maintenance
• Transporting bulky items across workshop floors
• Positioning parts for assembly or disassembly

Key specifications

• Rated lifting capacity: 400 kg
• Hydraulic lifting mechanism for controlled vertical movement
• Compact wheeled chassis with swivel casters for manoeuvrability
• Stable support structure suitable for uneven workshop surfaces
• Designed for short-distance transport and positioning of heavy loads

How to use

Position the trolley beneath the load so that the lifting platform or cradle is aligned with the centre of gravity of the item to be lifted. Engage wheel locks if present to secure the trolley base. Operate the hydraulic pump according to the built-in control (typically a pump lever) to raise the load to the required height, ensuring steady, even motion. To lower, use the designated release control to descend slowly while monitoring load stability. Move the trolley by pushing or steering the chassis using the handles and swivel casters; avoid sudden directional changes while carrying a raised load.

Usage recommendations

Always check the load does not exceed the 400 kg rated capacity and ensure the load is balanced before lifting. Inspect the lifting mechanism, casters and braking components for wear before each use. Use on firm, level floors and avoid steep inclines. For heavy lifting tasks, work with an assistant to guide and stabilise large or awkward loads, and follow local safety regulations for workshop lifting equipment.
