Developed by Kobus, a drain cleaning engineer, the two piece KOBUS Lifter is a revolutionary manhole cover lifting device, designed to overcome the problems that existing equipment is unable to tackle. Born out of necessity it is a durable, compact, portable and flexible tool, providing safe and speedy cover lifting in almost any circumstances.

It has been an outstanding success in site trials and has been acclaimed by drainage engineers, ground workers and tool hire companies.

• Light weight : Weighing less than 18kg per piece, the KOBUS lifter has the footprint of a vacuum cleaner and can be carried safely by one man.
• Powerful : It is ready to go without further assembly and this model can lift manhole covers weighing up to 2000kg and 225mm in thickness.
