4.5 Tonne Base Plate Car Hoist Single Point Release YL-245

Unlike floor plate alternatives that require driving over a raised steel cover profile, this clear-floor lifting system positions all mechanical synchronisation components overhead to preserve a clean workshop bay entry. It is engineered explicitly for high-throughput commercial mechanical workshops, tyre service centres, and fleet repair garages that demand rapid turnaround times, meaning it is not suited to low-ceiling sheds or premises where the overhead layout is restricted by structural roof beams.

Key Features

• Super Symmetric Arm Configuration — The flexible telescopic arm layout utilises three-stage front arms and two-stage rear arms to achieve precise load balancing on short or long-wheelbase vehicles.
• Self-Lubricating Carriage Sliders — Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene sliders combine with bronze bushings inside the posts to reduce mechanical friction and prolong operational life.
• Heavy-Duty Balancing Cables — Industrial 9.3 mm high-tensile steel synchronisation ropes maintain precise carriage levelness even when weight distribution varies across axles.
• Automatic Arm Restraints — Heavy-duty gear tooth restraints engage automatically during lifting cycles to lock the support arms in position and eliminate pivoting hazards.

Before You Order

Installation requires a level, fully cured concrete slab with a minimum thickness of 115 mm and a compressive strength rating of 32Mpa. The electro-hydraulic power pack operates via a standard 240 V single-phase electrical supply connected to a dedicated 15 A circuit breaker (should not operate off of a 10amp extension lead). Ensure your workshop ceiling provides adequate clearance for the overall height of the columns and overhead beam, maintaining a safe margin from any hanging lights or automated doors.

What's Included

• Two structural steel clear-floor columns with single-point lock release linkage
• One overhead cross-beam assembly with integrated safety shutoff padding bar
• Four telescopic lifting arms featuring automatic gear locks
• Two heavy-duty internal carriage assemblies with self-lubricating sliders
• 9.3 mm high-tensile steel synchronisation balancing cables
• 240 V single-phase hydraulic power unit and fluid reservoir
• Heavy-duty concrete floor anchoring bolts and hardware pack

Please note that AW46 grade hydraulic oil and four-wheel drive pad height extensions are sold separately.

To optimise your servicing bay setup, consider combining this clear-floor unit with our heavy-duty tire changers, electronic wheel balancers, or high-tech wheel alignment machines. Contact our technical sales team for trade delivery arrangements and warehouse pickup options.
