Key Features: The Shuttle16 maintains all of Stellar’s efficient operational and mechanical features such as the in-cab controls and body locks to ensure stability and secure attachment. All Stellar Hooklifts feature permanently lubricated greaseable bushings, zinc-plated pins and an efficient low-flow, high-pressure hydraulic system.
Base Section: The base section may also be called a subframe. All Stellar Hooklift hoists are tied together in one common framework. This base section not only adds strength to the hoist but also places less stress concentration on the truck chassis by providing additional structural support. The base section also provides for simple installation on most truck chassis.
Body Latch: The body latch is also referred to as the rear tiedown. Standard on Stellar Hooklift hoists are the rearward-facing hooks that interface with a horizontal steel pocket or tab. As the body is pulled forward into the final storage position prior to transporting, the tabs will pull tight in the hook pockets. Hydraulic-activated rear tiedowns are optional on larger Stellar Hooklift hoists.
Dump Section: This component of the Stellar Hooklift pivots at the rear of the hoist and when the tilt engages the patented dump latch tabs, allowing for the container dumping function. The rear-body latches are attached to this component on all models, allowing the body to remain in the latches while in transit and dumping.
Front Saddles: Front saddles provide a place for the body to rest while the truck is in motion.
Lift Cylinder: The lift cylinder lifts the body onto the truck and provides the dumping movement. All Stellar Hooklift lift cylinders feature dual pilot-operated counterbalance valves which provide optimum meter-ability and protection against sudden movement in the case of hose failure.
Tilt and Dump Latch: This unique patented feature is the basis of the Stellar Hooklift system. With a simple mechanical engagement between the tilt section and the dump section, the pivot point is changed from the secondary section (loading/offloading) to the rear of the truck (dumping). Resettable tabs protect the system from out-of-sequence operation.
Rear Rollers: With the unique Stellar Hooklift design, bodies are loaded and unloaded with a lift and roll movement. While unloading a body, the tilt section will lift the front of the body and roll it back. The tilt cylinder will continue rolling the body until the rear of the body contacts the ground.
Plunger Valve: The plunger valve will lock out all hydraulic fluid to the tilt cylinder when in the dumping mode to prevent the accidental release of the body while dumping.
Secondary Section: The secondary section acts as the main pivoting member for loading/offloading bodies. This component ties the tilt and dump sections together into one cohesive unit.
Tilt Cylinder: The tilt cylinder operates the tilt section of the Stellar Hooklift and features a pilot-operated counterbalance valve on both extend and retract sides. With Stellar’s unique twin post design, line-of-sight visibility of the hook is available from the truck cab.

Stellar Slider-20-S Sliding Jib Hooklift Hoist

Minimize operational and maintenance costs, maximize efficiency of your fleets — and benefit your business. The Stellar Slider Series Hooklift is a body handling system mounted on a truck chassis that is capable of loading, unloading and dumping various bodies with a wider range of lengths with the use of a sliding jib.
Proven Performance: As part of the largest line of hooklifts in North America, Stellar Slider Series Hooklift Trucks are known for their versatile design and ease of operation and popularity in a variety of industries. Available with manual or hydraulic adjustable hook heights, Stellar Slider Hooklift Trucks can handle 35.63″ (905 mm) to 61.75″ (1,568 mm) hook height bodies and can accommodate capacities from 20,000 lbs (9,072 kg) to 65,000 lbs (29,484 kg).



All models of Stellar’s Slider Hooklift Trucks feature permanently lubricated and greaseable bushings, a mechanical dump interlock system and an efficient low-flow, high-pressure hydraulic system with standard power beyond port to provide hydraulics to other accessories.
Stellar Slider Hook Lift Trucks provide a full-length dump frame and rollers positioned throughout the loader, instead of saddles with wear pads. Each and every Stellar Hooklift Truck operates using in-cab controls, which allow for metering of the hydraulic valve while offering a clear view of the operation through the rear window.
Additionally, any Stellar Slider Hooklift Truck will accommodate various lengths of bodies and still attain the maximum rated dump angle. The mechanical rear body latch system will match a multitude of different body hold down configurations and ensure body stability when in transit.
Safety Matters: When you’re responsible for handling heavy loads, it goes without saying that efficiency is a must. With Stellar Slider Series Hook Lift Trucks, you can load, unload and change bodies with ease and efficiency — and without leaving the comfort of the truck cab. Faster loading and unloading and reduced risk of injury are major benefits of a Stellar Slider Hooklift Truck, as operators are not exposed to moving machinery when operating controls or hooking up heavy cables on muddy, snowy, wet or other slippery and hazardous surfaces.

20,000-lb Capacity Sliding Jib Hooklift:
Discover how the Stellar® Slider20-S Hooklift can make your day-to-day operations more efficient. The Slider20-S is a body handling system mounted on a truck chassis that is capable of loading, unloading and dumping various bodies with lengths ranging from 10′ (3.0 m) to 14′ (4.2 m) with the use of a sliding rectangular jib. The rectangular jib reduces flex and provides greater structural integrity. The Slider20-S can accommodate capacities up to 20,000 lbs (9,071 kg). The maximum dump angle is 60° with all hook heights.
The Slider20-S is equipped with a telescopic jib and is available with 35.63″ (905 mm) or 54″ (1,372 mm) hook heights that are adjustable either manually or hydraulically to allow for working with various length and hook height containers.

Key Features: - Will accommodate bodies from 10′ up to 14′ long and still retain the maximum rated dump angle on a 40″-high frame truck. Longer bodies may be accommodated with reduced dumping capabilities. - Will accommodate various hook heights on containers with adjustable hook heights jibs, either with manual adjustable hook heights or hydraulic hook heights. - Transmission-mounted PTO and hydraulic pump required to power the hooklift. - Standard in-cab manual controls allow for metering of the manual hydraulic valve. - 25-gallon, frame-mounted oil tank.

- Operating pressure is 4,500 psi.
- Hydraulic flow required is 24 gallons per minute.
- Valve bank equipped with power beyond port.
- Mechanical dump/load interface.

Additional Features:
- Base section: The base section of a Stellar Slider may also be called a subframe. All Stellar Slider Hooklifts are tied together in one common framework. This base section adds strength to the loader and places less stress concentration on the truck chassis by providing additional structural support. The base section provides for simple installation on most truck chassis.
- Latches: Inside and/or outside bolt-on latches for ease of installation and replacement.
- Jib/Secondary: The sliding jib allows for a wider range of container lengths and a means to control the truck’s weight distribution while remaining in the latches. The jib and secondary booms are rectangular shaped for structural integrity. The jib is equipped with an adjustable hook height, either hydraulic actuated or manually adjustable, to allow for picking of various size containers.
- Wear pads: Easily replaceable wear pads for the jib/secondary boom assemblies can be changed in minutes and ensure long life for the jib/secondary assemblies. It’s not necessary to disassemble the hooklift to replace wear pads.
- Dump section: Dumping is accomplished through the rear pivot point. Jib and dump sections must lock together to support the full length of container/body when in the dump mode.
- Skid rollers: These three sets of rollers allow skid to roll freely forward and backward while operating the jib. They prevent long sills from wearing prematurely by not dragging steel on steel, and they eliminate the need to replace wear pads on base frame.
- Bushings and zerks: Bushings and grease zerks at all pivot points.
- Counterbalance valves: Counterbalance valves are used on all cylinders, protecting both extend and retract functions in case of a hydraulic hose failure.
