MAVLift Portable 400 M Glazing Tool

The MAVLift Portable 400 M is the compact, lightweight companion to the MAVLift Portable 400 — built for glaziers who need precision and reliability in tight renovation spaces without the need for full disassembly. Manually driven on four low-friction wheels, the Portable 400 M navigates easily through stairwells and doorways with its narrow ~28″ (720 mm) profile, making it ideal for window renovation work in existing buildings.

Despite its lightweight construction, the MAVLift Portable 400 M is packed with the same high-quality features found on larger glass lifting devices — including a 2-circuit vacuum safety system with dual pumps, high-precision electric actuators, and a magnetic-housing cable remote. Three electric cylinders handle telescoping, lifting, and tilting of glass elements, all powered by standard 18V Makita batteries.

For added versatility, the detachable KS VacuFlex M suction unit can be removed and used independently, handling loads up to 280 kg (617 lbs) as a standalone vacuum suction system.
