The Lectrotruck 1260E is the perfect choice for moving gun safes and boilers . With a 1500 lb. weight lift capacity, it is constructed from steel, and is affectionately known in the industry as “Old Orange". It has a shorter height than the 1268E for residential deliveries and is easier to maneuver around and into tight spaces.
Adjustable strap bars can easily be attached, moved and detached without the use of any tools. Each unit includes two strap bars and a battery charger. A female charging plug, located in the side of the battery box allows you to connect to a male plug on the battery charger. You can also connect directly to the terminals on the battery with alligator clips to charge the battery.

Specifications
Have a look at the images above to see the optional accessories.
How long does the battery last?
We measure our battery life by the amount of steps that can be climbed with a fully charged battery. Typically with a well maintained battery that is fully charged you will get the approximate lifting capacity outlined below:
Can the Lectro Truck go off the back of a truck?
The Lectro Truck can be used in the place of a tail lift gate provided your truck isn't more than 41" from the ground to the bed of your truck. If you have more than 41" a small platform can be made to achieve the appropriate height.
How much weight will the Lectro Truck lift?
The maximum capacity:
• 4512E - 600 lbs.
• 1260E - 1,500 lbs.
• 1268E - 1,500 lbs.
Why do my wheels keep rolling towards the front of the step?
The wheels on the Lectro Truck will roll forward for two reasons. One reason might be that the step is too deep. When you go to raise the load up to the next step if the wheels are too far back on the step the inner frame will ride on the edge of the step and pull the Lectro Truck forward. To correct this problem you need to put a spacer such as a 2" x 4" at the back of the step to prevent the wheels from going too far back on the step. A second reason why your Lectro Truck might roll towards the front of the step is because the load that is on the Lectro Truck is too low and heavy. The way to correct this problem is by using the balance box accessory. This moves the weight up on the Lectro Truck to equally distribute the weight and balance the load better. A third reason your Lectro Truck wheels will roll towards the front of the step is because the step might be slanting forward. To correct this problem we now have wheel brakes that attach to the Lectro Truck wheel and prevent the wheels from rolling forward.
What if I need to rest in the middle of the step with a 1500 lb. load on my Lectro Truck?
With the inner/outer frame system such as the Lectro Truck you are able to let go of the handles once the wheels and the toe plate are positioned on the steps. Unlike other kinds of hand trucks you can remove your hands from the handles once the load is balanced on the steps.
What happens if my battery goes dead in the middle of my move?
If your battery should go dead in the middle of your move with the Lectro Truck balanced on the steps, you can get another battery or Portable Power Pack and change it in the middle of your move. The 5512E and 6512E comes with a Portable Power Pack. To change the Portable Power Pack just unplug the pack, unhook two side clips, pull it out of the frame and insert a new Portable Power Pack, (additional Portable Power Packs can be purchased.)
Where is the Lectro-Truck made?
The Lectro Truck is made in Oostburg, WI. USA

What a wonderful hand truck. I can't believe it took me so long before purchasing one. I used to lug heavy boxes around. Those days are over. It's sturdy, can hold hundreds of pounds of merchandise, and saved my back.
Mendy Zeiger Monsey, New YorkI own numerous apartment buildings and laundromats. I have no clue how we have survived as long as we have without this Escalera Motorized Stair Climber! Seriously, big 1000 lb washing machines are no problem, getting them over a threshold is easy as pie now or taking a damn appliance up 4 flights of stairs... Not a problem anymore. Seriously, changed our lives and saved my back.
Joseph Jepsen Salt Lake City, UtahHandtrucks2go was a pleasure to deal with. The purchase and shipping were spot on. The Folding Table Dolly is perfect as well. This is the 3rd one that we have purchased. It make setting out and picking up tables a much easier process.
Allen Stroud Philadelphia, MississippiThis Piano Dolly was very well made and exceeded my expectations. The staff at Handtrucks2GO made every effort to make sure that I was ordering the correct one for my piano. Very impressed with the service. I highly recommend Handtrucks2GO!
Paul Menz Lexington, MassachusettsOverall it’s a great product. The BP-Liberator Hand Truck that I custom built definitely helps a lot for going up and down stairs. It’s also lighter than my other big dollies. It’s fairly expensive, but it’s also very good quality. I will defintely buy from here again.
Tyson Hanes Springfield, TennesseeMy Escalera was well worth the wait, it has saved my back already, and I've only had it a couple of weeks. Best investment I have ever made.

Jon Gibbs Kansas City, Missouri
I have to say the customer service was amazing, to say the least. UPS miss handled our package when we received it the box was torn open I took a chance that all the parts were going to be there will they were not, I contacted customer service and they got right on it, they told me that they would be reaching out to the manufacturer to get the missing parts on the way. The manufacturer got the part out and is on their way. They not only sent one set of the missing parts they sent two sets making sure they had the bases covered. Just WOW! Thank you For having great customer service! I will be buying more Hand Trucks as the need arises.
Kevin Hobbs Turner, OregonThis company came to the rescue with prompt service, right parts and quick delivery. Friendly service agents, and simply all around fantastic! Thank you!

Steve Johansson Hainesport, New Jersey"The Chair carts arrived at our wedding hall yesterday, we were able to assemble them very easily as you said."
We have had this same Lectro-Truck for 25 years. This new model 6512E is like on steroids. Very pleased with our purchase. If you have to carry heavy items up and down stairs. This unit will do it for you. Love our Lectro-Truck.
Jimmy North Charlottesville, VirginiaLove our Glaro Bellman Cart. Feels ultra sturdy and looks real high class. Delay in shipping but customer service was great at getting factory to push cart for sooner delivery date.
ALBERT ROBINSON Reno , NevadaThe Powered Wheel Barrow is an amazing product, I certainly wish I’ve discovered this years ago. We live in Florida where the grass is thick and pushing a regular wheel barrow is like a workout. The PAW rolls through the thick St. Augustine grass with no problem. It works perfectly just as described in their website. It’s balanced and the hand controls are easy to use. I will surely be coming back for more!
Martin Thompson Osprey, FloridaExcellent customer service and pricing. Lightning fast shipping. The Power Drive and Lift Straddle Stacker is an excellent product, just as described, very happy. Highly recommend!
Habitat ReStore Roscommon Prudenville, MichiganThese Escalera Motorized Stair Climbers With Forklift are the best you could find in today's market. My buddy has had one for 37 years and I would always use his and this year I decided to get my own here at Handtrucks2go. I guarantee that they will last forever.
Anthony Lane Belton , MissouriYour products are great. I recently bent a caster wheel but it was my fault and so I ordered a new one. The service was fast and easy. It is great quality and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you.
David Tores Millersville , MarylandGreat customer service and quick shipping. I highly recommend buying from Handtrucks2go!
Kurt Steder Bellingham, WashingtonI've ordered from here twice and both times the customer service has been wonderful. Great customer service is hard to come by, but this team is amazing!

Dan Burns Great Falls, MontanaCustomer Service was great to work with. I received my order quickly and it was exactly what I needed.
Rhonda Houston, TexasThe salesperson was very knowledgeable and efficient. The ordering experience went smoothly. I needed to add a second replacement battery the following week and the salesperson pulled up my previous order and completed the transaction very quickly. I would highly recommend Handtrucks2go.
William Levittown, New YorkWe have an oil company in Long Island New York. The 1260E Hand Truck has been a wonderful addition to our business. It helps us to move 800 and 1000 lb boilers up and down stairs with ease.
Jim Mcburnie Cutchogue, New YorkI have had a power assist wheelbarrow from Handtrucks2go perhaps 5 or 6 years. An incredible assist for hawling most anything. Recently I damaged the transformer for recharging the batteries. A request for assistance from PAW was quickly answered and a new transformer was delivered at a reasonable price. I can assure you this company is trustworthy.
Robert Ellis Rockport, MassachusettsWe purchased these hand trucks for our rental properties maintenance techs in four states. This product is amazing! I had a guy in a boot for his foot use this hand truck to take a refrigerator up three floors and down three floors and it took little muscle and one foot! We love them! Every Property Management team should have one!
Terri Enger Omaha, NebraskaLove our PowerPallet convertor kit. The unit went on our manual jack easily and fairly quickly. The driver delivered 18 stops before the battery started showing yellow.
Randy Martin - Dutch Valley Foods Allentown, PennsylvaniaThe sales process on-line was simple and intuitive, and the Lectro Truck-6512E I ordered was delivered on time. The tracking follow up was very helpful in planning for the utilization of the unit. Thank you HandTrucks2Go!
Robert Lloyd Orlando, FloridaI can't believe how easy the Anderson Dolly makes moving appliances. We have 150 apartments that are very small. No more tilting and trying not to hit the walls and doors. One person moving made simple and fast.

Jay Troutman Hunker, PennsylvaniaThanks on the great deal on the Magliner Beer Keg Lifter is a great tool for the brewery. It's a real back saver when loading kegs 3 high.
Todd Tisdell Santa Clarita, CaliforniaThis Dolly is awesome. Very well made and very versatile. I bought it to use it at rvents but now I use it for just about anything I need to move around. Very satisfied with purchase.
Bob Mastrodonato Fullerton, CaliforniaSure was simple to install. I took tools expecting to create the thing. Only needed a tape measure for piano dimensions and a 9/16 wrench to tighten bolts. Once dimensions of piano were found, I stretched or shorted the dolly to fit. Found 4 willing men in the Café and wam. We lifted the piano and a Barrista slid it underneath. Rolls around easily. Church elders thanked me. Even a Customer. I'm happy and would recommend you this Piano Dolly to all interested parties.
Harold Pope Visalia, CaliforniaI am a former UPS driver and have been looking for years for a comparable hand truck to what was issued to me as a driver. After a long search I found Harper. The Hand Truck I made using this website is better than what I was issued while working for UPS (due to some upgrades I added). I am very happy with my investment.
Timothy New Hope, PennsylvaniaI ordered these dollies to be able to easily move our upright piano during a remodeling project in our home. They worked perfectly and allowed us to reposition the piano several times while the flooring work was being done. Highly recommended!
Gordon Stiers Brownsburg, IndianaAs an HVAC contractor, our teams often transport large condensers and support materials over a variety of soft and uneven surfaces. Traditional hand-trucks were both difficult to use, and potentially dangerous. We looked for and alternative to the traditional hand-truck and found the MultiMover XT. Although it is designed for transporting inflatables, its size and design are well suited for our purposes. Thank you Handtrucks2go for introducing this great product!
Bruce Whiteside Clearwater, FloridaGreat service on this purchase from beginnong to end. The product arrived quickly and the handtrucks went together easily with all the hardware included. Even the hardware is good quality and the BP Liberator Hand Truck will last a long time, we already have few of this brand. Glad to find a good deal on some new ones.
Gary Mulford Tuckerton, New JerseyHandtrucks2GO is a pleasure to deal with. Very responsive to my inquiries.
Peter Reilly Estero, FloridaI feel like I got a good deal and was well taken care of. Also my shipment was delivered earlier than promised so I am very happy!
Mike McCrory Santa Barbara, CaliforniaHandtrucks2go has never failed to bring us excellent service regarding our stairclimbers and additional accessories as well as other products that we have purchased from this website. This is most defintely our go-to website when it comes to material handling equipment.
Tom Cavanaugh Richmond, VirginiaWhat a great way to build your own Custom Magliner Hand Truck. Built mine with stair sliders, never flat tires and a easy grip handle. Simple interface and easy to follow instructions simply the best website. Super happy with the product and the quality! Will never have to buy another hand truck from a different website again.
Curtis Herchenbach Gurnee, IllinoisAppreciate that Handtrucks2GO will deliver to Canada. Part was delivered on time and does the trick.
Jan Bate Peterborough, New YorkThe Anderson Dolly has made our job so easy. Now it only take 2 guys to move a larger Refrigration box inside a convenience store where it used to take 5 guys.
Michael Cancel El Cajon, CaliforniaThe Escalera Motorized Stair Climber has been life saver for my moving team, we move safes, piano and other heavy teams from and to basements and this device saves time, money and amount of team I need to send out. Thank you Handtrucks2go for giving the best price and fast shipping.
Victor Chin Machesney Park, IllinoisThis product is sweet! I had made investment after researching and also seeing an older model in action the last couple of years, the tool has stood the test of many basement stairs and boiler removals.
Brett Flagg Granby, ConnecticutThe company was careful that I didn’t order an incorrect size. I appreciated that. All parts and nuts and bolts were there with plain and simple instructions.
Richard Sapp Fruitland Park , FloridaGreat customer service. The Electric Wheelbarrow arrived with a damaged tube but they quickly replaced it. The assembly went pretty smoothly. I used it once in 6 inches of snow and was amazed how effortless it was able to maneuver around it. I wouldn’t even attempted to push a normal wheelbarrow through that.
Joseph Casalena Bedford, PennsylvaniaMy residents LOVE their new Shopping Carts. We are a beach community and these are perfect for the environment. They are a little larger than the previous metal ones but all residents have commented on how light they are. A very satisfied customer.
Debra Agamaite Clearwater, FloridaI collect antique slot machines for home entertainment and getting these 250lb machines up my stairway has been a problem. Normally I rent an electric stair climber when I need one but the last time I had to drive 50 miles to the nearest rental company that had one. This was a total of 200 miles driven for a 10 minute job.
This was the last time. I decided to buy my own. The Escalera Motorized Stair Climber was a perfect solution. It is a really quality hand truck and it performs as advertised. I'm very pleased with my purchase. It also helps with my piece of mind that it is manufactured in the USA, actually in my home state, and I can get parts for it and support if it ever needs repair.
Gary Dailey Riverside, CaliforniaThis Escalera Hand Truck is very high quality, it's extremely useful for many different applications. I have used many different hand trucks and dollies for over 40 yrs - this is definitely the best by far!
David Moore Chillicothe, MissouriThis wheel replacement was exactly the part I needed after over 20 years of use. The customer service department was quick to respond and helpful in determining the correct replacement. Great job all around!
Gary Bauch Houston, TexasOnce Escalera Motorized Stair Climber came in we put it to use immediately. We really appreciate the quality and craftsmanship that was thought about behind the engineering. The simplicity and adaptability to various situations is very obvious behind what we saw in the engineering of the product. We are very pleased with the purchase and will continue to use it for as long as we can. We move heavy HVAC compressors up and down stairs in places where it's not convenient or advantageous to wait for a crane. Huge time and back saver!
Joseph Ledwinka Columbus, OhioThis Customizable Beer Hand Truck is amazing. Huge upgrade from our very basic hand truck. Keg lock has already saved us from disaster in the first week
Sean Ricci East Haven, ConnecticutWebsite was easy to use and follow. Lots of options to choose from and for just about any application not to mention their amazing customer service who were kind enough to accomodate all our questions and are quick to respond. Me and my employees love this website! It makes our job so much easier compared to the one that we are currently using. Will defintely purchase from Handtrucks2go again!
Dennis Greunke Madison, WisconsinThe Twin Dollies we ordered were fantastic and was shipped sooner than expected. Never have I seen better packagingfrom other websites compared to theirs! Defintely a good buy, prices are also cheaper compared to others and my whole shopping experience was excellent.
Samuel Workman MEDIA, AlabamaAfter consulting customer service, I purchased the replacement clips for an older Harper Hand Truck. They sturdy clips worked perfectly; much to my delight.
Margaret Thomas Milford, ConnecticutExtremely satisfied with my Customized Hand Truck. I have used Dollies daily for work for years, the dolly from Handtrucks2go is by far the most durable and because of the customization the most useful one I’ve ever had. Highly recommended.
Carlos Fairlawn, OhioGot exactly what I ordered in a timely fashion, would definitely order again.
Edward Newark, DelawareLove this hand truck. It works well and makes it easy for one man to deliver refrigerators up stairs. We took a subzero 48" up 60 steps with no issue or strain. Love it!!!
James Hensley Lenoir City, TennesseeOur team really likes these Pallet Jacks and their ease of use. Highly recommend. Friendly and knowledgeable rep and fast shipping/delivery.
Christyn Bailey Fort Worth, TexasThis was a repeat order. Design Your Own Hand Trucks from our previous orders arrived on time & in perfect condition. This order was no different. Absolutely would recommend Handtrucks2GO.
John Long Island City, New YorkOrder was worth the wait! Handtrucks2GO's replacement wheels are even better than the original manufacturer equipment!
Dave Louisville, KentuckyI broke a wheel on my dolly. I spoke with a representative of Handtruckss2GO and she was extremely helpful on determining the correct wheel. Very easy ordering on line and received my order quickly.
Vivian Silverman Santa Monica, CaliforniaI loved the customizability of the "Design Your OwnBP-Liberator Hand Truck" option, and the HandTruck arrived within a month. The quality was every bit as good as the reviews from professional movers that I saw. I am very pleased and would recommend this to anyone who is going to be doing a lot of moving, either in a professional or self-service capacity.
Philip Buckler El Paso, TexasVery efficient, fast and free shipping. I called to make sure the replacement part I ordered was for my cart and I could talk to somebody in few minutes. I highly recommend. Keep up the good work.
Michele Cipriani Weehawken, New JerseyThank goodness for Handtrucks2GO. I own a Kartmaster HD500. Pretty expensive cart but the casters were completely worn. No one else had the part and now I'm back in business.
Thomas Fahey Milton, MassachusettsI must tell you how favorably impressed I was with your courteous, professional and proficient service today. I had just spent one and one-half hours on the telephone trying to locate the part I needed - the 5-inch caster wheel for my hand-truck cart. I was sent to a telephone number, another company, then another telephone number and another company...and so it continued.
Finally, I reached the gentlemen at your company who assisted me - so very expertly. I am not known for rendering accolades to anyone, but in this case the gentleman who assisted me is worthy of high recognition. Your company is exceptionally fortunate to have him as one of your employees.
Kenneth Liechty Fleming Island, Florida"I don't understand computers so thanks for the extra help you gave me in purchasing my hand truck. Thank you for your quick follow up and I of course appreciate your effort from the beginning to make sure all went well for me!"
Rich G. Rohnert Park, CaliforniaI seriously wish I had bought these years ago. It's made moving mattresses around our showroom so much easier. The Mattress Cart is very steady - even kings can be a one person operation. Also very glad we went with the bigger wheels.
Nate Bartlett Charlevoix, MichiganWe were looking for replacement wheels for our hand truck. Handtrucks2Go was recommended by the manufacturer, Harper. I see why, they were a perfect fit, quality and it's brand new again! Thank you Thank you Thank you!
Jeff Dutile Framingham, MassachusettsThe hotel luggage platform cart was purchased for the residents who live in a 13th floor condominium building. Residents praised its ease of maneuverability and functionality.
We went and purchased a second one it was so good!
We just installed our new Grand Piano Dolly on our second piano, and it looks and works perfectly, just as the first one has for several years now!
Roger Tesch Albuquerque, New MexicoEasy Peesy. One call, gave model and what item I needed and was done checking out in under 15 min. Arrived earlier tah expected too.
Robert Workman Wooster, Alabama
