Logitrans ELFS 1201 Series Electric Straddle Legs Stacker
The Logitrans ELFS 1201 Series is a battery-powered stacker with electric lift and manual push. It is built for heavy pallet loads of up to 3,000 lb. Straddle legs sit outside the load, which makes this base the most stable and generally the highest capacity for the money. The rule of thumb is simple: if straddle legs fit around your load, buy straddle. Logitrans states the ELFS handles every kind of pallet, including closed pallets, and the 1201 uses 4 in. wide forks.

The ELFS 1201 is rated 3,000 lb, compared with 2,200 lb for the ELFS 1001 Series. The trade-off is height. The 1201 reaches 62 in. at most, while the 1001 reaches 128 in. Choose the 1201 when load weight drives the decision and 62 in. is enough.
With battery lift and manual push, the lifting effort disappears, which suits frequent lifting over short travel. A battery-powered stacker is a motorized hand truck, so powered units fall under OSHA operator training rules in 29 CFR 1910.178. The handle is shaped for a relaxed grip and adjusts to the individual operator. Rounded corners reduce contact damage to surroundings, pallets and goods.
Four lift heights are available, all rated 3,000 lb: 35, 46, 54 and 62 in.
Selecting the Right ELFS 1201 Model
◆ Maximum lift height, 35, 46, 54 or 62 in., set by your highest rack position or required stacking height
◆ ELFS 1201 or 1001, 3,000 lb to 62 in. versus 2,200 lb to 128 in., so pick on load weight first and height second
◆ Fork size, 4 in. wide and 42 in. long on all four models, so check it against pallet deck clearance and load length
◆ Straddle legs or fork-over, straddle legs go around the load while fork-over legs run underneath, so confirm your pallets leave room for the legs
◆ Capacity at height and load center, rated capacity changes with load center, so check the data plate for your working height
◆ Battery and charger, confirm the option supplied before ordering for multi-shift use
