  Lift-Mate™
Truck & Rail Car Connector
Series 703 Model
16
Unloads dry
bulk materials from both trucks and rail cars
The Lift-Mate Series
703 truck and rail car connector is specially designed to contain
dry bulk solid materials when discharging from hopper bottom
rail cars or trucks. The Lift-Mate is easy to use and creates
a dust-tight connection between the outlet of a hopper bottom
rail car and/or truck for cleaner and faster unloading and discharging.
It comes complete with an outlet flange aligner control for exact
positioning of the Lift-Mate connector. This makes it simple
and quick to use when trying to align to meet the outlet of the
rail car or truck.
The lifting mechanism
is powered by a heavy-duty hydraulic cylinder, which uses an
air-over-oil combination for a smooth and safe position control.
The rugged hydraulic cylinder has an oversized piston rod for
additional strength and to provide more than adequate power for
lifting and sealing. The mating connection to the truck or rail
car has a replaceable, extra wide seal to provide longer life,
even under severe operating conditions.
Manual air control
valves and oil reservoir tank is fully assembled and ready for
easy floor mounting. The controls include a special lockout for
security and safety purposes. The overall simplicity of the Lift-Mate
connector makes maintenance easy, because the air-over-oil power
source only requires standard available compressed air for operation.
