SCOOTER PROBLEM SOLVED USING THE CAROLIFT BOOT HOIST!
The problem was to find a solution to transport and store a scooter including the seat in the customer`s vehicle.Solution - to fit a Carolift (90kg) boot mounted hoist into their Renault Kangoo.The other problem was that the scooter was too large to be kept in their flat so a device was needed to take the batteries out of the scooter so they can be re-charged overnight, the idea being that the scooter is left stored in the vehicle.Solution - a strap was made and attached to the batteries so that the hoist can lift them out of the scooter. Outcome - one very happy customer!
