Four Post Car Lift

The four-post lift is a piece of equipment that lifts a car to a certain height by lifting the wheels. Its characteristic is that it has tracks or brackets to support the wheels, and it can be used in groups with mobile single-wheel lifting equipment, or it can be used with a fixed whole-car lifting structure. Its advantage is that as long as the car is driven onto the track or bracket of the lifting machine, the lifting operation can be carried out, so it has the characteristics of safety and efficiency. It includes a secondary lift, which allows direct maintenance work on tires and brakes. It can be used in conjunction with a four-wheel aligner.

### Working Principle

The four-post lift typically uses a hydraulic system to achieve the lifting action. The hydraulic pump presses hydraulic oil into the cylinder, pushing the piston inside the cylinder to move up and down, thereby driving the lifting platform to rise or fall. To ensure the stability and safety of the lifting, the four-post lift is equipped with a synchronous control system and safety protection devices.

### Technical Parameters

- **Rated Load**: Depending on the model, the rated load of the Haosail four-post lift can range from 4 tons to 8 tons, suitable for vehicles of different weights.

- **Lifting Height**: Usually around 1500mm, sufficient to meet the bottom operation needs of most vehicles.

- **Platform Size**: The length and width of the platform will vary according to the design and intended use of the lifting machine, to accommodate vehicles of different sizes.

- **Motor Power**: Generally around 2.2kW to 3kW, but in order to meet the voltage and electric quality of the customer's local area, we can achieve custom functions to ensure that the customer can normally use the four-post lift.

- **Power Supply Voltage**: Usually 380V, suitable for industrial power environments.

### Application Fields

The four-post lift is mainly used in places such as car repair shops, 4S shops, car manufacturing plants, and car inspection stations for vehicle maintenance, maintenance, cleaning, and four-wheel alignment work.

### Operating Procedures

When operating the four-post lift, the following basic procedures should be followed:

1. Ensure that the vehicle drives smoothly onto the lifting platform and the parking brake is tightened.

2. Before operation, check whether the hydraulic system, electrical system, and safety devices of the lifting machine are normal.

3. Start the lifting machine slowly, observe whether the vehicle rises steadily, and avoid rapid ascent causing instability.

4. After the work is completed, lower the vehicle slowly to ensure the vehicle lands safely.

5. Regularly maintain and inspect the lifting machine to ensure its good working condition.

Stability and Safety: Four-post lifts are known for their stability and safety features. The four posts provide a sturdy foundation, ensuring that the vehicle remains secure while being lifted. The design minimizes the chances of tipping or swaying, providing a safer working environment for technicians or car enthusiasts. Weight Capacity: Four-post lifts are capable of lifting heavy vehicles, including trucks, SUVs, and vans. They generally have higher weight capacities compared to other types of lifts, making them suitable for a wide range of vehicles Versatility: Four-post lifts offer versatility in terms of the vehicles they can accommodate.

With adjustable platforms and a wide range of available accessories, they can be used for various purposes such as maintenance, repairs, storage, or showcasing vehicles. Ease of Use: Four-post lifts are relatively easy to operate. They typically feature simple control mechanisms, allowing for smooth and efficient lifting and lowering of vehicles. This ease of use can save time and effort, especially in busy automotive workshops. Additional Workspace: Four-post lifts provide additional workspace underneath the vehicle. This extra space allows technicians to have better access to the undercarriage, engine, and other components for repairs or inspections. It also enables them to perform various tasks simultaneously, increasing productivity. Storage Solution: Four-post lifts can be utilized as a storage solution for vehicles. By lifting a vehicle off the ground, it helps free up floor space, making it ideal for car collectors, automotive enthusiasts, or anyone looking to maximize storage capacity.
