Vehicle lift manufacturer Stertil Koni has launched the FreedomLift range of heavy-duty two-post lifts.
The new lift is designed to elevate a variety of vehicles, from vans to small and heavy-duty trucks, but has a compact footprint.
Three models offer lifting capacities from 5.5 to 9 tonnes. Each incorporates a pair of telescopic lifting arms, which can be adjusted, locked and unlocked as required.
Options include double telescopic arms for extra flexibility, additional control boxes, LED lighting and special vehicle adapters.
The lift gives engineers unrestricted access to raised vehicles as there is no overhead cross bar or bulky base.
Unlike traditional four-post or mobile column lift alternatives, the two-post lift gives technicians a wheel-free situation without the need for jacking beams or axle stands.
Safety features include an independent locking system which engages at 210mm above floor level, a gravity-activated locking pawl, automatic locking of the lifting arms, synchronisation between the posts and a fail-safe automatic overload protection system.
