This detailed description presents the technical characteristics and advantages of the Consul 0.40 S-AM BA type, 4800 mm in-ground, electro-hydraulic scissor lift, which is ideal for service and wheel alignment tasks requiring a high level of accuracy.
The Consul 0.40 S-AM BA model is a high-quality, floor-mounted (BA – Bodenaufbau) scissor lift, specifically designed for lifting passenger vehicles and for wheel alignment, up to a maximum total weight of 4,000 kg. The design allows for the perfectly horizontal (levelled) lifting of vehicles, which is essential for modern 3D wheel alignment.
This lift combines reliability, safety, and efficiency in the workshop environment:
Floor-Installation Design (BA): The lift can be installed directly onto the workshop floor, requiring minimal installation depth, making it ideal for existing facilities where sunken installation is not feasible.
Electro-hydraulic Control: Ensures a fast, smooth, and reliable lifting/lowering process. The Master/Slave hydraulic system guarantees the synchronized operation of the platforms.
Wheel Alignment in Fixed Levelled Position: The lift allows for the precise horizontal fixing of the vehicle, which is a prerequisite for accurate wheel alignment and inspection.
Turntable Installation Option: The turntables equipped with series accessory covers (pick-up points) can be installed up to 50 mm high, facilitating vehicle positioning.
Adjustable Full-Width Extendable Platforms: The platforms feature integrated, full-size sliding plates, which provide flexibility for vehicles of different track widths.
Drive-on Ramps and Anti-Rollback Stopper: The platforms are equipped with integrated ramps for easy drive-on access, as well as anti-rollback protection for maximum safety.
Integrated Jacking Beam Rails: Integrated rails that facilitate the placement of lifting bridges required for wheel alignment tasks can be found on the platforms.
The technical parameters of the Consul 0.40 S-AM BA lift ensure long-term, heavy-duty operation:

Safety and Control Functions:
Pneumatic Release: During lowering, the retaining clamps release pneumatically, controlled by a push button.
Mechanical Locking System: A 17-position mechanical locking device ensures secure holding during lifting.
Acoustic Protection Element: Foot protection with acoustic signaling during the lowering phase.
Main Switch: Main switch that can be switched off separately, compliant with CE directives.
Bearing: Shared, 20 mm thick fixed and sliding bearing (galvanized in the series), with optional calibration possibility for wheel alignment setup.
Electrical Connection: 230 V socket built into the lift.
The Consul 0.40 S-AM BA lift can be flexibly extended for workshop-specific requirements:
3D Wheel Alignment Adapter Kit (e.g., for Beissbarth Easy 3D): Retrofit adapters for 3D wheel alignment systems.
Slip Plate Anti-Slip Coating: Treatment of the platform surfaces with an anti-slip coating (Note: this coating cannot be retrofitted).
Drive-on Ramp with Roll-back Stopper: Standard accessory, but also available for replacement or exchange (approx. 1,000 mm long). Longer, straight ramps are also available (approx. 1,500 mm long).
Turntable Replacement Inserts (475 / 630 mm): Inserts for replacing existing turntables, enabling fine adjustment during wheel alignment.
Lighting Solutions: Optional factory-installed lighting (4 LED lamps, with 1 switch and cabling).
Control Panel Placement: Right-hand placement of the control console available for an extra charge.
Fixing Materials: Fixing kit required for the 0.35/0.40 series (with 28 M16 reaction bolts and screws).
This Consul scissor lift is the ideal choice for workshops looking for a reliable, high-capacity, and precise lift optimized for wheel alignment in a floor-mounted version.
