P/N 5900037 — Rev. F — February 2022
Frequently Asked Questions
Question
: What kinds of Vehicles can I put on my Lift?
Answer
:
Cars, trucks, SUVs; anything that fits on the Runways, up to 14,000 lbs. (6,350 kg).
Q
: Can any of the four Posts be the ‘Power Post’?
A
: No; the only two possible locations for the Power Post are either the
Front Driver-Side
or the
Rear
Passenger-Side
. This will be explained later.
Q
: Can I use my Lift to store boxes of stuff instead of Vehicles?
A
: No; this is not the intended use of the Lift. It is not designed to be used this way.
Q
: How can my Lift fit both narrow and wide Vehicles on the Runways?
A
: The Offside Runway (the Non-Cylinder Runway) can be easily switched between the narrow and
wide settings. You would need to unbolt the Offside Runway on both ends, slide it over to the
other position, and then bolt it into position.
Q
: Does the Lift have to be anchored in place?
A
: Yes, BendPak
strongly
recommends that you anchor the Lift. If you plan to use the optional
Rolling Bridge Jack, the Lift
must
be anchored.
Q
: How high does the ceiling have to be?
A
: It depends on the height of the Vehicles you are putting on the Runways and how high you raise
the Runways. If you are going to put a tall Vehicle on the Lift and raise it all the way up, you should
check to make sure there is enough room.
Q
: Does it matter if I drive my Vehicles in front first or back them in?
A
: We strongly recommend driving your Vehicle in front first, because that makes it easier to center
the wheels on the Runways. Also, remember to put the front wheels up against the Tire Stops
and chock the rear wheels.
Q
: Will the Lifting Cables really hold my Vehicles?
A
: Yes. Your Lift has 12 mm thick, aircraft-quality wire rope that runs through oversized Sheaves,
reducing friction on them and extending their life with minimal maintenance.
Q
: How many Safety Locks does my Lift have?
A
: The HD-14T model has 17 Safety Lock positions.
Q
: How long can I leave a Vehicle on a raised Runway?
A
: As long as you want,
if it is on a Safety Lock
. Once the Lift is engaged on a Safety Lock,
gravity holds it in position, so a loss of power does not impact it; it is going to stay where you left
it. Always leave the Runways either fully lowered or engaged on a Safety Lock.
Q
: Can I install my Lift outside?
A
: Your Lift is approved for indoor installation and use only.
Outdoor installation is prohibited
.
Q
: How many Rolling Bridge Jacks can I use on my Four Post Lift?
A
: Two.
Never
place the Rolling Bridge Jack towards the middle of the Runways, they
must
go at
the Front or Rear of the Lift. See
