LiftingSafety Review:
The Yale load star (lodestar) is manufactured by CM (Columbus Mckinnon) and has and is a very top level truly excellent quality single phase electric chain hoist with thousands of hoists being supplied over decades. The lodestar range are supplied in the UK  with 1Ph 230v, 1Ph 110v or 3ph 400v power supplies and from 250kg up to 3000kg. The hoist is only supplied hook suspended though we can supply it with a push, geared or electric travel trolley; when used with a powered travel single phase trolley we would use a single pendant controlling both the trolley and the CM electric chain hoist. Do not be put off by the old fashioned appearance of the Yale load star, if it isn't broken don't mend it!
