New Lumber Carrier Proves Itself In Yard Savings

Berkot Manufacturing Co., North Hollywood, Calif., claims the neiv Berkot Lumber Carrier soon pays for itself in lumberyards, cabinet shops, warehouses, docks and furniture factories. The ,rugged workhorse can safely and accurately move lumber around the plant with less effort and increase production. The carrier is 60" long, 30' wide; 32" high at deck; corner posts are 15" high. Berkot-wheels balance and support the load at both ends; Lball-bearing casiers allow free movement regardless of weight. The corner posts insure safe movement of lumber that has a tendency to slide, yet are removable for an extra-wide load. The all-steel construction is engineered for durability, versatility, simplicity of operation. The two main support wheels are 40Ox8, 4-ply pneumatic tired with rated load capacity of 890 lbs., each with /4" heavy-duty ballbearings; all moving parts have grease fittings.

The balancing Berkot cart will not tip or dump loads; scientifically designed to reduce manual strain or lifting. Stakes are removable to allow handling of full-size plywood sheets, long lumber, narrow molding; stakes are chained to prevent loss. The short turning radius of the carrier allows fully-loaded cart to roll or turn easily in narrow aisles; one person can easily control fully loaded cart in narrow spaces.
