What is a panel lift, and how do I use one?

A panel lift is used to lift panels of different materials up to a designated height for installation. Using a panel lift rather than manual lifting will reduce the time taken to do the job and reduce the chance of accidents, including back injury. To place a drywall panel on the ceiling, you will need to mount the panel of drywall onto the lift, hoist the lift up to the ceiling so that the drywall panel is flat against the ceiling, and screw it in place. This means you do not need to struggle to hold the drywall and screw it in place at the same time.
