Acoustic Foot Protection: An audible warning signal ensures safe operation underneath the lift.
Hydraulic Tensioning Cylinder: The fundamental element of the system for stable lifting.
Slack Cable, Cable Break Safety, and Anti-Fall Protection: A redundant mechanical and hydraulic safety system guarantees vehicle stability in every position.
Platform Design:
Long Approach Ramps: 1,500 mm long approach ramps ensure the safe approach of sporty, low-profile vehicles.
Adjustable Platform: One platform is fully adjustable, equipped with a locking mechanism. Optionally available in a version with roller guide.
Integrated Rail: A rail integrated into the platform is available for the jacking beam, facilitating work under the wheels.
Pneumatic Locking: Central control for the pneumatic locking system (8 bar pressure required). Locking rods can be positioned every 100 mm over the entire lifting height.
Certifications: It has GS certification, DIN EN 1493, and CE approval, guaranteeing compliance with the highest industrial standards.
If the lift is ordered for wheel alignment, the following functions will be integrated:
