Rotary Lift’s Spotline laser vehicle spotting guide is
immensely popular with technicians who use the company’s new Shockwave-equipped
lifts. It enables them to quickly and efficiently move vehicles in and out of
the bay, saving time on each job and increasing overall productivity.
Now, owners of any brand of vehicle lift can add the
benefits of Spotline to the bay, thanks to a new retrofit kit that makes the
laser spotting guide compatible with most inground and surface lifts.
“Everyone who has a Shockwave-equipped lift knows how
much time the laser saves,” says Ron Lainhart, Rotary Lift parts and service
manager, “But there are a lot of people who aren’t necessarily ready to
purchase a new lift who could benefit from being able to spot vehicles more
quickly and accurately. The new Spotline retrofit kit lets customers increase
the efficiency of virtually any lift out there.”
The Spotline laser is installed on the top of the lift
or elsewhere above the work area. It projects a green laser line directly in
the center of the bay. The technician simply centers the line on the vehicle
hood and dash while pulling in for perfect positioning every time. With
Spotline, the driver does not have to lean out a window or a door to properly
stage the vehicle.
Rotary Lift invented the Spotline motion-activated
laser spotting guide and introduced it as part of its Shockwave system in
November 2011. Until now, it was only available on Shockwave-equipped two-post
and SmartLift inground lifts. Spotline uses a Class IIIa laser similar to those
in laser pointers.
The Spotline retrofit kit works with two-post and
four-post surface lifts, light-duty inground lifts, and heavy-duty
parallelogram and scissor lift models. The kit comes complete with a Spotline
laser assembly, motion sensor kit, mounting bracket and hardware adaptable to a
ceiling, wall or top of a two-post lift. A Rotary Authorized Installer (RAI) can
install the kit, or the customer can install it by following the simple
instructions provided.
