CM Lodestar Next Gen Model F 1/2 Ton Electric Chain Hoist

The CM Lodestar Next Gen Model F is a 1,000 lb (1/2 ton) electric chain hoist built for concert touring, theater, live events and rental fleets. It lifts at 16 ft/min with a 1/2 HP motor in a single-reeved configuration and runs at a quiet 68 dB(A).

Every hoist ships as a complete package: 1/4 in. zinc-plated load chain for your selected lift (60, 80, 90 or 100 ft), the matching chain bag (MPDH 16S for 60 ft, MPDH 20S for 80 to 100 ft), the MPDHVINH chain bag bracket, your choice of power/control connector and optional Hoist Spring Loaded Handles V1. Units come prepped with our standard swivel LatchGate hooks by our CM-certified technicians.

Why the Next Gen Lodestar

  • Heavy-duty DC brake, positioned for quick access and easy inspection
  • Adjustable clutch located outside the gear train for easier service
  • 5-pocket liftwheel for smoother lifting, less vibration and reduced chain wear
  • IP65 protection against dust and high-pressure water for outdoor use
  • H-4 / FEM 2M duty rating and precision helical gearing

Classic or Next Gen?

Both the Next Gen and Classic Model F lift 1,000 lb at 16 ft/min with a 1/2 HP motor. The Next Gen adds a heavy-duty DC brake, IP65 protection, an adjustable clutch outside the gear train and a 5-pocket liftwheel. The Classic uses an electromechanical brake, the CM Lodestar Protector and a screw-type limit switch, and has the shorter distance between hooks (14-1/4 in.).

Ideal for

Concert touring, theater, live event production, rental companies and entertainment rigging that need a compact 1,000 lb chain motor.
