Boost Your Shop Efficiency with ATD Low-Rise Scissor Lift Technology
Frustrated with constantly crawling under vehicles on creepers, straining your back while working in cramped positions under low cars, and losing valuable time on routine maintenance that could be performed more efficiently with proper vehicle elevation? The ATD SL6L Low-Rise Scissor Lift solves these productivity and comfort problems with its impressive 6,000 lb capacity and convenient 26-inch lifting height that positions vehicles at the perfect level for oil changes, brake service, exhaust work, and general maintenance without requiring the overhead clearance of full-height lifts. The ultra-low 3-inch drive-over height accommodates even the lowest sports cars and modified vehicles while the automatic safety lock system provides secure positioning throughout service procedures, and included rubber riser blocks offer additional height options up to 30 inches when needed. After installing this low-rise lifting solution, you'll experience the satisfaction of working comfortably at proper heights instead of on your back, completing routine services faster with better access, and reducing the physical strain that makes long service days exhausting while maintaining the ability to service low-profile vehicles that many lifts cannot accommodate.

Impressive 6,000 Pound Capacity for Versatile Service
The substantial 6,000 lb lifting capacity handles virtually every passenger vehicle and light truck that enters your service bay, from compact economy cars to full-size SUVs and pickup trucks. This generous capacity provides comfortable safety margins while accommodating modern vehicles with heavy battery packs, all-wheel drive systems, and aftermarket modifications.
The capacity proves especially valuable for quick-lube operations and general maintenance facilities that service a wide variety of vehicles throughout the day without knowing exact weights in advance. The substantial rating eliminates guesswork while ensuring safe operation with any typical passenger vehicle.
Full-size trucks, loaded SUVs, and commercial vans all operate safely within the capacity limits, making this lift suitable for both automotive service and light commercial vehicle maintenance operations.
Ultra-Low 3-Inch Drive-Over Height
The extremely low 3-inch minimum pad height accommodates lowered vehicles, sports cars, and modified cars that cannot clear traditional lift approach angles. This low profile opens service opportunities with performance vehicles and custom cars that many facilities cannot service due to equipment limitations.
Standard passenger vehicles drive over the lift effortlessly without scraping, bottoming out, or requiring special approach techniques that slow service operations and potentially damage customer vehicles.
Perfect 26-Inch Working Height for Routine Service
The 26-inch lifting height positions vehicles at the ideal level for oil changes, brake service, exhaust inspection, and general maintenance procedures. This height eliminates the back strain and awkward positioning required for ground-level work while avoiding the overhead clearance requirements of full-height lifts.
The comfortable working height allows technicians to perform routine services while standing rather than lying on creepers or kneeling on uncomfortable shop floors. This ergonomic advantage reduces fatigue and increases service quality by providing better access and visibility.
Oil drain procedures become much cleaner and more efficient when performed at proper working height with easy access to drain plugs, filters, and drain pans. The improved access also reduces service time per vehicle, increasing daily throughput.
Brake service benefits enormously from the improved access to wheels, calipers, and brake lines that proper lifting height provides compared to floor-level work that requires constant repositioning and uncomfortable working positions.
Expandable Height with Included Riser Blocks
Rubber riser blocks extend lifting capability to 30 inches when additional height is needed for specific service procedures or vehicle configurations. This flexibility accommodates varying service requirements without requiring multiple lifting systems.
The riser blocks also provide options for different vehicle sizes and service procedures, allowing optimization of working height based on technician preference and specific job requirements.
Generous Runway Dimensions for Vehicle Compatibility
The 86-inch overall length with 52-inch pad length accommodates wheelbases from compact cars to extended cab pickup trucks. This substantial pad length ensures proper weight distribution and vehicle stability regardless of wheelbase variations.
The 35-inch width between runways handles track widths from narrow sports cars to wide pickup trucks and commercial vans. This compatibility eliminates vehicle restrictions that could limit service opportunities with narrower lift systems.
Individual runway width of 19 inches provides adequate tire contact area for stability while maintaining the compact overall footprint needed for efficient shop floor utilization. The generous runway width accommodates tire sizes from economy car wheels to light truck tires.
Rapid 35-Second Lifting Speed for High Productivity
The impressive 35-second lifting speed minimizes vehicle positioning time, allowing rapid transition between drive-on and service-ready positions. This speed proves especially valuable in high-volume operations where lift cycle time directly impacts daily throughput.
Quick lifting capability also improves customer satisfaction by reducing service time, while the rapid cycle allows technicians to position vehicles precisely for optimal access to service points.
The fast lifting speed combined with the low drive-over height creates an efficient workflow that speeds up routine services without sacrificing safety or precision.
Automatic Safety Lock Protection
The automatic safety lock system engages during lifting operations to provide mechanical backup protection independent of hydraulic pressure. This safety feature ensures vehicles remain securely supported even during extended service procedures or unexpected pressure loss.
Automatic engagement eliminates operator error possibilities while providing consistent safety protection regardless of technician experience level or service procedure duration.
Professional Construction for Daily Commercial Use
The 955 lb shipping weight reflects substantial construction designed for daily commercial service rather than occasional light-duty use. Professional-grade components and structural elements ensure reliable performance under maximum loads in demanding service environments.
Standard 110V single-phase power with 20-amp requirements operates with typical shop electrical systems without requiring special installations or high-voltage connections. This standard power compatibility makes installation straightforward in most service facilities.
The 73-inch overall width fits standard service bay configurations while providing adequate stability under maximum load conditions. The compact footprint maximizes lifting capability without consuming excessive shop floor space.
For quick-lube operations, general automotive service, brake specialists, and maintenance facilities seeking efficient low-rise lifting capability, the SL6L provides the perfect combination of capacity, convenience, and productivity enhancement.
The ultra-low approach height, substantial capacity, and optimal working height create ideal conditions for high-volume routine service operations where efficiency and ergonomics determine profitability.
