installed a lift in my garage

[mischiefdart]

Well I finally have a lift in my garage. I bought it barely used for $900 from a guy who was closing his shop. It is a direct lift 9000lb capacity. I have it levelled and bolted to the floor. I need to get a 30a 220v outlet and breaker today and will be in business!

would love to be able to put one in my garage. Congrats they are very handy to have.

Is it a 4 post?

They need to be leveled to hit stops correctly, but do not really need to be bolted.

Have a cytech 4 post that been using for about 13 years and never bolted it down,have a set of casters to easily move it

Nice buy

Yep. Been there, done that!!!!

Thanks everyone. I just left my job so all my tools are home too. It is a two post bottom cable so I don't think I will be parking other vehicles underneath unless I have to.

They don't need to be bolted down, but I still get a little nervous while lifting.

Mine has six 3/4" studs per side holding it to the floor. Electrician is coming on Thursday to run a 100a 220v service to the garage. Only wired for 110v now.

Ive had mine for a couple of years now. I have found things with the car that I would have never noticed until it was too late. I installed a high lift garaged door track so it opens up over the car. I also mounted the pump on a hinge to swing it out of the way when not in use. Mine is bolted to the floor and is 220 (makes the lift operate faster than the 110). Enjoy! Andrew

Doesn't need to be bolted down. Mine actually came with rollers that cantilever so you can roll it around

I have to agree. I work under a 4-post and there is NO way I'd ever work under one that isn't bolted down. Just wouldn't feel safe.
