Car Lift Location and Equipment
The placement of the car lift is crucial. It should be installed in a position that maximizes the parking lot’s functionality without obstructing car entry and exit, ensuring cars are stored smoothly and safely. Regarding the drive mechanism, most car lifts utilize a hydraulic workstation brake and an electromagnetic reverse flow valve. For lifting guides and guide rails, accuracy in installation is essential to ensure the car lift operates smoothly.
Installation of Entrances, Exits, and Car Lift Passages
A distance equivalent to two vehicle lengths should be maintained between the car lift’s entrance and exit and the road ahead. Alternatively, space for a turntable should be reserved. For a car lift with separate entrances and exits, reserve space for one vehicle length on the entrance side. A turntable is advisable if the car enters and exits the lift without reversing. The width of the entrance and exit should exceed the maximum vehicle width by at least 0.5 meters, with a minimum width of 2.25 meters. The height should be more than 1.8 meters and at least 0.1 meters above the tallest vehicle. For the scissor car lift, ensure the passage dimensions facilitate safe operation, keeping the distance between the car carrier and the ground edge at less than 4 centimeters. The foundation pit depth for a hydraulic direct push car lift should be over 1.2 meters, regardless of the rated speed.
Car Lift Safety Devices
An essential feature when purchasing a car lift is the emergency stop device. This button allows the system to halt immediately during an emergency until the issue is resolved. Shock absorbers in the pit reduce impact when the car lift descends. Limit switches prevent the car lift from exceeding its operational range by automatically stopping it at the limit position. Hydraulic safety valves close automatically if an oil pipe bursts or is suddenly unloaded, preventing the truck board from falling. Additionally, an anti-idling device for the motor and a leveling device to adjust the carrier’s descent are important safety features.
