EASY HANDLING that gives speedy operation ..... Sgehpes continuous motor power, easy steering and quick acting brakes give the operator of an Elwell-Parker Electric truck complete and instant control over every movement... forward... backward... or raising or lowering a load. Brakes can be applied with the power on, so that stopping and starting on ramps is easy and safe. Because the starting and reverse handles return to neutral and brake is automatically applied if operator lifts his foot, or if he steps off pedals, the truck stays where stopped. Safe and easy steering by wheel or by horizontal steering lever is ac- complished with least effort because wheels pivot over center of tires. Every modern Elwell-Parker truck may be operated with equal ease, when operator either faces the load or stands with back to the load in an alert, eaimoriapie position. = = en On lift trucks, the platform travel may be arrested manually at any de- sired point or stops may be adjusted to suit lesser lifts. An overload slip clutch protects the lift mechanism should the platform be thrust be- neath an immovable object. You'll appreciate many times over these easy handling as well as safety advantages after you purchase an electric truck. To be sure you get them all specify “Elwell-Parker.” Write for this new booklet,““Hand- ling and Shipping on Skids” that Cutaway view o »f Elwell-Parker liftunit—this unit contains a brake that is mechanically applied when lift motor is at A ° rest.
