This freight car door opener uses the power of a 5,000-pound superwinch to open freight doors from any angle. The cable assembly and winch are mounted on a swinging arm to allow maximum movement next to the door.
The forklift driver will use a control cable to operate the winch from the safety of the seat, and since the winch is self ­contained with a 24-volt system (including the charger), any fork truck can be used.

The safest way to open boxcar plug doors:

• No more door crank injuries
• No more holding a preloaded crank
• No fear of doors falling on workers
• No operating cords (rechargeable DC power)
