Increase your service capabilities by turning an
18,000-lb. or 30,000-lb. capacity heavy-duty Rotary Lift SM series four-post lift into an
alignment lift using the company’s new bolt-on alignment kit. With the retrofit
installed, technicians can use an SM-series lift to align most vehicles, from
work trucks to day cabs.
“Now you can add alignments to your repertoire without
making a significant investment in a new lift or alignment rack,” says Doug
Spiller, heavy-duty product manager for Rotary Lift. “Since the retrofit kit
bolts right onto your current lift, installation costs and bay downtime are
significantly reduced. Upgrading your existing lift means you’ll be able to
stop sending out alignment work so you can hang onto your customers.”
Full alignment kits for the 18,000 lb. capacity Rotary
Lift SM18 include two 4,500 lb. capacity stainless steel turning radius gauges
and rear slip plates. The parts are compatible with all brands and types of
alignment instrumentation. For the SM30 and older SM300 models, 7,500 lb.
capacity radius gauges are provided.
The SM18 is built to expand a shop’s capabilities
beyond light duty service. With the alignment kit, the lift can be configured
to handle alignments on Class 5 work trucks with wheelbases as long as 162
inches. The SM30 accepts wheelbases up to 307 inches, including most school and
transit buses.
The lifts feature technician-friendly single-point
release air locks that save time by opening all four column locks from one
button. Ramp chocks engage automatically as the lift is raised to improve setup
efficiency. Runways feature a non-skid coating to provide sure footing.
“This single kit turns a one-dimensional four-post
lift into a multi-use profit center,” says Spiller. “It gives you more tools to
use to grow your business. Plus, it is a genuine Rotary Lift accessory, so you
know it is built to high standards and will fit perfectly.”
Shop owners interested in retrofit kits should contact
their local Rotary Lift distributors to find out which options are best for
their facilities.
