Substantial 9,000 Pound Capacity for Modern Heavy Vehicles
The impressive 9,000 lb load capacity handles today's heaviest passenger vehicles including full-size SUVs, luxury cars with all-wheel drive systems, hybrid vehicles with heavy battery packs, and pickup trucks that would overload lighter-duty equipment. This generous capacity ensures profitable service opportunities aren't lost due to weight restrictions.
Modern vehicles keep getting heavier with advanced safety features, larger engines, complex drivetrain systems, and luxury amenities. The 9,000 lb rating provides comfortable safety margins while accommodating vehicles that many standard lifts simply cannot handle safely or legally.
Commercial vehicles, fleet trucks, and specialty applications often require this level of capacity, making the substantial rating essential for shops targeting profitable commercial accounts where vehicle weights routinely exceed 7,000-8,000 lbs.
Proven Chain Driven System for Reliable Performance
The robust chain driven system provides dependable lifting power with proven technology that delivers smooth, consistent operation under demanding commercial conditions. Chain drive systems offer excellent power transmission while maintaining the reliability essential for daily commercial use.
The substantial 3/8-inch cable diameter reflects heavy-duty specifications designed for continuous operation under maximum capacity conditions, ensuring reliable performance even when lifting at full 9,000 lb capacity with the heaviest vehicles.
Chain driven operation provides precise control throughout the lifting range while maintaining the durability necessary for busy service environments handling multiple vehicles daily under challenging conditions.
Smart Asymmetric Design for Optimal Vehicle Positioning
The asymmetric configuration provides superior positioning flexibility with short arms reaching 29" to 41" and long arms extending 37" to 57", accommodating various wheelbase configurations while ensuring proper weight distribution for safe, stable lifting operations.
This design proves especially valuable for modern vehicles with diverse weight distributions, from front-heavy luxury cars to rear-heavy pickup trucks, allowing optimal positioning based on each vehicle's specific center of gravity and lifting point locations.
The asymmetric setup eliminates the positioning compromises often required with symmetric systems, ensuring safe lifting regardless of vehicle type while providing the flexibility essential for diverse service operations.
Professional Spin-Up Pad System for Efficient Operations
Spin-up pads and adapters enable quick, precise positioning without the manual effort and time consumption of traditional systems, allowing technicians to adjust pad height and position rapidly while reducing physical strain during vehicle setup procedures.
The low 4-inch minimum pad height accommodates lowered vehicles, sports cars, and modified vehicles that other lifts cannot handle safely, opening service opportunities with performance vehicles and custom builds that many shops must refuse.
The efficient pad system improves service bay productivity by reducing setup time while ensuring proper contact points for safe lifting, regardless of vehicle configuration or lifting point variations.
Advanced Low Profile Arms for Universal Vehicle Access
Low profile arms provide excellent access to vehicle lifting points even on cars with minimal ground clearance, aftermarket modifications, or factory lowered suspensions. These arms slip under vehicles easily without the positioning struggles common with bulkier designs.
The low profile design proves essential for European sports cars, modified vehicles, and specialty cars that require precise positioning for safe lifting operations, allowing access to vehicles that other lifts simply cannot accommodate.
This advanced arm design eliminates the vehicle restrictions that force many shops to refuse profitable service work on specialty vehicles, opening new revenue opportunities with high-value cars and custom builds.
Professional Clear Floor Design for Unobstructed Workspace
The innovative clear floor design eliminates base plates and floor obstructions that create tripping hazards and complicate shop operations, keeping your workspace completely open and unobstructed for safer technician movement and professional appearance.
Clear floor construction simplifies facility cleaning and maintenance since there are no permanent fixtures to work around when sweeping, mopping, or moving equipment throughout the service area, while creating a cleaner appearance that demonstrates professionalism.
The absence of floor plates provides greater positioning flexibility, allowing vehicles to be placed optimally without precise alignment requirements that slow operations during busy periods or complicate service procedures.
Protective Features and Professional Construction
Rubber door guards protect valuable customer vehicles from accidental contact with lift columns during positioning and service operations, preventing costly damage to doors and body panels while allowing close positioning for optimal service access.
The substantial column dimensions of 7-1/4" x 10-7/8" provide the structural strength necessary for safe 9,000 lb capacity operation while ensuring stability under maximum loads, reflecting engineering optimized for demanding commercial applications.
Steel thickness specifications with 5mm columns and carriages plus 6mm arms demonstrate solid construction designed for daily commercial use, providing confidence when lifting expensive customer vehicles while ensuring long-term durability.
Optimal Workspace Dimensions for Diverse Vehicles
The 113-5/8 inch width between columns accommodates wide vehicles including dually pickup trucks and commercial vans while providing adequate clearance for technicians and equipment during service operations, eliminating vehicle width restrictions.
The 96-inch drive-through clearance provides substantial workspace for positioning vehicles and service equipment around lifted cars and trucks, while the 72-inch maximum lift height positions vehicles at optimal working levels for comprehensive service.
With adapters, the maximum height extends to 77-1/2 inches, providing additional clearance for specialized service procedures or when working on taller vehicles that require extra working space underneath.
The efficient 50-second lifting speed provides optimal operation that balances productivity with system longevity, ensuring professional cycle times while maintaining the reliability essential for busy commercial environments.
The 220V single-phase power requirement with 20-amp draw operates on standard commercial electrical systems without requiring special installations, making setup straightforward while ensuring adequate power for consistent performance under maximum loads.
Optional spin-up cradle adapters (ATD2P9CA) further expand versatility for specialty vehicles or unique lifting applications, allowing adaptation to vehicles requiring custom lifting solutions or unusual lifting point configurations.
For automotive service facilities, general repair shops, independent garages, and commercial service centers requiring substantial capacity with asymmetric flexibility, the 2P9A provides exceptional capability in a proven chain driven design.
The combination of impressive 9,000 lb capacity, reliable chain driven operation, asymmetric positioning flexibility, clear floor design, and professional construction creates the ideal lifting solution for operations demanding both substantial capacity and precise vehicle positioning capabilities.
