This detailed description presents the Consul 0.42 S BE – 4800mm presents the technical characteristics and advantages of the in-ground pit mountable (BE version) four-post lift, which is an ideal choice for professional workshop environments, especially for wheel alignment and general service work.
The Consul 0.42 S BE model combines reliability, high load capacity, and space-saving installation, ensuring maximum access to the vehicle underbody.
This hydraulic four-post lift is part of the Consul C-Line series, designed to meet the highest quality standards. Thanks to the in-ground pit mountable design (BE), the platforms run flush with the floor level, so the workshop floor remains completely flat when the lift is not in use, maximizing the work area.
Excellent Load Capacity: Thanks to its nominal load capacity of 4,200 kg, it is suitable for the safe lifting of passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, and wider vehicles.
In-Ground Pit Mountable Version (BE): The flush-mounted design ensures optimal access and results in a completely flat surface when switched off.
Electro-hydraulic Control: Precise and reliable lifting/lowering process.
Master/Slave Hydraulic System: Guarantees synchronized operation and stable lifting.
Pneumatic Release During Lowering: Pneumatic safety release at the push of a button during the lowering process to increase safety.
Mechanical Locking System: The 17-stage mechanical locking system ensures mechanical support during lifting.
Acoustic Foot Protection: Built-in safety feature to protect the operator's feet during lowering.
Robust Platforms: The runways are made of special rolled steel profiles, ensuring exceptional rigidity.
Excellent Corrosion Protection: The split, 20 mm thick fixed and sliding bearings are manufactured in series with hot-dip galvanization (serially hot-dip galv.) for long life.
Integrated Rail System: A track is integrated into the runways for the jacking beam, which facilitates further lifting of the vehicle underbody.
Drive-Through Version: The platforms feature a drive-through surface (drive-through version), which facilitates vehicle positioning.
Safety Standards: Complies with protection class IP 54, has GS certification, and carries DIN EN 1493 and CE approvals.

The lift operates with an electro-hydraulic drive, which guarantees fast and smooth lifting. The 5.5 kW motor provides sufficient power to move 4.2-ton loads. The lifting time under load is only approx. 35 seconds. The Master/Slave system ensures that the two hydraulic cylinders work in perfect synchronization, preventing platform displacement or tilting.
Safety is of paramount importance: during lowering, the system uses pneumatic release, which can be activated by a single button press. Furthermore, the 17-step mechanical locking system ensures mechanical support, independent of hydraulic pressure.
The 4800 mm long runways are ideally suited for accommodating vehicles with longer wheelbases. The platforms are made of special rolled steel profiles, which provide exceptional stability. The surface and sides are equipped with high-quality spray galvanization (spray galvanization), similar to the AV/AM versions, which increases durability in the workshop environment.
The runways have a traversable design, which facilitates vehicle entry and exit. A rail system integrated into the platforms allows for the simple positioning of auxiliary devices, such as hydraulic jacking beams.
A BE (inground installation) version means that the lift is fully installed below floor level. This solution is ideal for creating clean, obstacle-free workshops. The installation pit must be created taking into account the installation dimensions (approx. 5770 mm length and 2260 mm width).
To comply with safety regulations, the lift is equipped with:
CE approval and DIN EN 1493 compliance with standards.
with GS certification.
IP 54 electrical components with degree of protection.
230 V auxiliary socket on the control unit.
Detachable, lockable main switch (in accordance with CE regulations).
The Consul 0.42 S BE lift can be flexibly expanded according to the workshop's needs:
Anti-Slip Coating (Cannot be retrofitted): Anti-slip coating available for the surface of the runways for maximum grip.
Control Box Placement Right (Surcharge): It is possible to modify the placement of the control box to suit the workshop layout.
Fixing Materials: Fixing kit for the 0.35/0.40 series (28 pcs M16 anchor bolts and screws) is available for professional installation.
Lighting Solutions (Surcharge):
Factory Fitted Lighting: Surcharged option for factory-installed lighting.
4 pcs LED Lamps (Not assembled): Includes 4 pcs LED 45° lamps (1235 mm long) and the necessary switch/cables if the user installs it themselves.
Runway Extension: 250 mm extension element (maximum 1 pc can be ordered) for even longer vehicles.
Hydraulic Wheel Aligner (Gelenkspieltester):
Set 630 (Hydraulic): 18 directions of movement (longitudinal/transverse) for vehicles up to max. 2,000 kg. Integrated into the runways, with a 50 mm construction height, and a drive-on block. (Only for lifts without a vehicle positioning set).
General Hydraulic Set: Only 50 mm installation height.
The Consul 0.42 S BE – 4800mm scissors lift is a premium, durable, and safe solution for modern auto repair shops, ensuring space-saving and a professional working environment thanks to its in-ground recessable design.
