Rotary Brand 12,000-lb. Drive-On Lift
 ✖  |
Art Mangels, Dillon, Mont.: "Our Rotary brand 12,000-lb. drive-on lift works great for servicing cars and farm vehicles. Ramps can be moved closer together for small loaders and 4-wheelers. The 4-post stand-alone units are manufactured by Dover Industries, Madison, Indiana ph 800 640-5438; www.rotarylift.com. It comes with complete installation instructions and shims for leveling when anchoring posts to a cement floor. An electric/hydraulic power unit powers a lift cylinder which is hooked to four cables enclosed in a frame. Each post has a safety lock. You need shop air to release the lock cylinders in order to lower the unit.
"This drive-on lift also makes a nice temporary table. We like the safety of the unit - we don't have to worry about falling into a pit. We do a lot of welding and cutting and are aware that certain explosive gases can get trapped in a pit or floor drain. We had a similar drive-on hoist before we moved our farming operation to Dillon, Montana eight years ago. We only survived a year in our new shop without a hoist. My son John decided we needed a hoist again so I let him buy it. The Rotary was recommended as the best brand, and so far it has been trouble-free."
