Frequently Asked Questions
Question
: How much weight can the P-9000LT/F raise?
Answer
: The P-9000LT/F can raise Vehicles up to 9,000 pounds (4,082 kg).
Q
: The P-9000LT
F
is “flush mount”, what does that mean?
A
: It means the Bases of the P-9000LT/F are installed below the surface of the Concrete so that no
Ramps are needed. Instead, the tops of the Platforms are flush with the Concrete when the Lift is
fully lowered, so Vehicles just drive straight on to the Platforms. Note that sufficient Concrete depth
is required
under
the Concrete Cutout.
Q
: The P-9000LT/F is called a “pit lift”, what does that mean?
A
: It means that in addition to working great to raise Vehicles in any environment, the P-9000LT/F is
optimized to hold Vehicles over a pit, which you would typically find at an oil-change facility or
automotive shop. Adding a pit lift to an oil change facility lets you easily add wheel rotations and
brake service to the services you already offer.
Q
: Can the P-9000LT/F be installed outside?
A
: No. The P-9000LT/F is approved for
indoor
installation and use only.
Outdoor installation is
prohibited
.
Q
: Can I put the Console on either side of the P-9000LT/F?
A
: Yes. The Hydraulic Hoses that come with the P-9000LT/F are long enough to support the Console
being up to 30 in / 762 mm away on either side.
Q
: What if I want to raise a Vehicle that is slightly over the weight capacity of the Lift?
A
: This is not an intended use of the product. Do
not
raise a Vehicle that is heavier than the rated
capacity of your Lift.
Q
: How many locking positions does my Lift have?
A
: Four. This gives you multiple heights to which you can raise the Lift, so it is easy to find the best
height for what you are doing.
Q
: What do the Safety Locks do?
A
: Safety Locks use gravity and intelligent engineering to hold the Platforms up, once they are
engaged. Even if the Lift loses power, the Platforms stay where they are if they were left engaged
on Safety Locks.
Only leave your Lift either lowered or engaged on Safety Locks.
Q
: Which end of the P-9000LT/F is the “front”?
A
: Neither. Vehicles can be driven on to and off of the P-9000LT/F in either direction. The standard
configuration is for the Short Ramps to be installed next to the Hinged Ramps and the Long
Ramps to be installed on the other end. This configuration creates a flat, extended Platform onto
which you drive the Vehicle to be raised. The extended Platform keeps the Vehicle flat and well
above the Platforms, making it easy to position the Lift Blocks under the Vehicle’s manufacturer-
recommended Lifting Points.
Q
: The P-9000LT/F is described as “frame-engaging”, what does that mean?
A
: it means the Platforms (actually, the Lift Blocks on the Platforms) contact the frame of the Vehicle
to raise it. Put another way, the Vehicle is
not
raised by its wheels (as is the case with 4-post Lifts).
