The MANPLOW Promise

Never Bend Over!       Never Over Reach!      Never Walk Backwards!  

The MANPLOW Stretch Wrap Dispenser is a pole design alternative to apply stretch wrap. Lighter, quicker, and less physically demanding to use than a parallel handle dispenser.  MANPLOW dispensers allow the user to apply wrap in a natural, upright manner, reducing fatigue and injuries. When choosing which model is right for you, consider this, the longer the handle, the less fatigue. Diminishing fatigue reduces injuries, improves performance, increases output, and can even boost morale.

Our handles are designed to optimize hand separation. The tension system is located toward the middle of the handle so you can place your hand further down the handle where most of the weight is. This allows you to spread your hands wider to create more leverage. 

More leverage means less effort and less fatigue. Wrap better longer!

The Extra Long Handle provides a maximum hand separation of 45". Ideal for taller users.

Pre-stretch wrap doesn't require as much tension as cast or blown material.  Simply adjust your MANPLOW to a lower tension setting and wrap away!

Even the best workers are more apt to take short cuts when fatigued.  When it comes to preparing shipments and material handling  THE RIGHT HANDLE MAKES A DIFFERENCE!

The handle length doesn’t dictate how tall a pallet you can wrap.  

The SWD4500, SWD3400 and SWD2500 ARE ALL MORE THAN CAPABLE OF WRAPPING A 92” PALLET!

Handle length determines how far you can separate your hands when using the equipment. 

The wider you space your hands the more leverage you can generate. 

More leverage means less effort and less fatigue. 

Less effort and less fatigue allow you to perform at a higher level for a longer time.

WRAP BETTER, LONGER!

MANPLOWs are designed to be used in an upright, walking position. If a taller associate uses a handle that is too short, they will have to bend down while wrapping the bottom of the pallet. They will experience fatigue sooner.  A proper length handle will allow them to wrap the bottom of the pallet without discomfort and fatigue. 

FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, CHOOSE THE HANDLE BASED ON VOLUME AND ASSOCIATE HEIGHT!

Without compressing the spring, rotate the handle until you see a portion of a stem hole through one of the lower handle holes. Rotate the handle 2 holes, compress the spring, and insert the Tension Control Pin. If you like more tension, try rotating the Handle 3 Holes. 

No, the MANPLOW Stretch Wrap Dispenser is not a specialty tool. It can easily wrap, with less effort, anything a parallel handle dispenser can (pictured on left). A MANPLOW Stretch Wrap Dispenser will replace a parallel hand wrap dispenser. In fact, a parallel hand wrap dispenser is more of a specialty tool then the MANPLOW.  Parallel hand wrap dispensers are very good at wrapping items waist to chest high. They require too much effort in awkward positions to do a good job wrapping lower than your waist or higher than your chest.

No. Assembly and roll changes can all be done without any tools. It is a very simple process that takes about 45 seconds to do.  

None. A MANPLOW can do everything a regular dispenser can do and so much more. It can do a better job and it is safer to use. If you have a MANPLOW Stretch Wrap Dispenser, you will not need any other dispensers.  

Anyone can assemble and use a MANPLOW Stretch Wrap Dispenser. Follow the simple directions to assemble it for the first time and you’ll understand just how simple, simple can be. Using it is very intuitive. If you can walk around a pallet, you can wrap it. Sure there are fancy wrapping techniques that you can do with a MANPLOW that you could never do with a regular dispenser, but they are easy and often times fun to experiment with.  

MANPLOW Stretch Wrap Dispensers are ruggedly simple. They are over-built with super strong, lightweight aluminum to stand up to heavy use and by design, have no vulnerable systems that can render it unusable. That’s not to say it will never get run over by a forklift. And if it does, rest assured, we can replace any part in no time flat.  

The very act of wrapping a pallet with a parallel handle dispenser is nearly identical to the party game where folks run up to a baseball bat, bend over , spin around 10 times and then have to run to the next activity. It’s funny to watch when it is in the middle of a soft, grassy field but not when it’s in a fast paced warehouse with lots of hard surfaces, sharp edges and moving equipment. Many warehouse injuries result from slip and falls. If you can eliminate situations where you may slip and fall, you can eliminate injuries. Additionally, some pallets may need to be wrapped in an over/under method. This exposes workers arms with a parallel handle dispenser. Not with a MANPLOW. You can do a 360 wrap without ever exposing any part of your body to potential harm.
