Isidingo sezinto zokuhamba eziqondile sidala njengempucuko yabantu. Iizinkundla zokuphakamisa zakuqalawasebenzisa amandla omuntu, ezilwane kanye nawe-hydraulic ukuphakamisa isisindo. Imishini yokuphakamisa incike kulezi zindlela zamandla eziyisisekelo kuze kube yinguquko yezimboni.

I-hoist isebenzisa obhasikidi noma amanetha ezimpahla ukuthutha abantu nezimpahla phezulu naphansi.

Ngo-1203, isiteji esiphakamisayo sesigodlo sezindela esogwini lwaseFrance safakwa kusetshenziswa i-treadmill enkulu. Imbongolo yanikeza amandla okuphakamisa. Ngokusonga intambo ensikeni enkulu, umthwalo wasuswa.

Ngo-1846, kwavela isiteji sokuqala sokuphakamisa i-hydraulic industrial. Kwabe sekuvela ezinye izisetshenziswa zokuphakamisa amandla ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho.

Esiteshini sesitimela esinesivinini esiphezulu "Alps" cishe ngamamitha angu-800 ukusuka phansi, kuzokwakhiwa isiteji esiphakamisayo ngqo phansi. Ngemuva kokuqedwa, kuzoba inkundla yokuphakamisa ende kunazo zonke emhlabeni. Ngemva kokufika phansi ngeplatifomu yokuphakamisa, abagibeli bangathatha isitimela se-Alpine Glacier Sightseeing Express futhi bafike endaweni yokungcebeleka entabeni emahoreni amabili.
