BendPak releases HD-9EWT Extra-Wide Four Post Lift
BendPak announced the release of the HD-9EWT four-post lift, designed with a wider footprint than other four-post lifts to accommodate a wide range of vehicles.
The HD-9EWT features multi-level locking positions that ensure that technicians can lock the lift at the most comfortable working height without having to crouch or reach uncomfortably while servicing vehicles. It uses an electric-hydraulic power system for quick stopping, starting, and reversing. The lift has an 87" max lifting height, and it uses longer approach ramps and low-profile runways to accommodate low-clearance vehicles.
The lift uses upgraded heavy duty dual-hub cable sheaves that significantly extend the life of axles, cables, and sheaves under heavy load. It also features four stainless steel lifting cables concealed within the column structure, as well as oversized self-lubricating cable rollers, a push-button pneumatic safety release, and a customizable power unit location. All lifting cables, airlines, safety latches, and sheaves and fully internal for a sleek, clutter-free appearance.
The HD-9EWT can also be combined with BendPak's GoAir Mini air compressor for locations without air power. The GoAir mini runs on 110V and measures 10.5" x 16" x 7". The HD-9EWT has been third-party tested and is ALI certified.
What people are saying
Jeff Kritzer, BendPak president and CEO, said, "The expanded dimensions of the new HD-9EWT four-post lift offer greater peace of mind when maneuvering larger vehicles into place. This new design is all about operator safety and comfort. The lift’s extra width prevents damage to doors and mirrors, while its greater rise makes room for taller vehicles and taller techs, too."
