Product Overview
Open-Front Capability in a Powerful Four-Post Lift
The BendPak HDSO14P is an innovative open-front four-post lift designed for easy vehicle access and enhanced productivity. With its clear entry design, operators can effortlessly move beneath the vehicle, making front-end adjustments quick and trouble-free. This model is particularly ideal for busy alignment bays. Boasting a robust 14,000-lb. (6,350 kg) lifting capacity and extended runways, the HDSO14P is versatile enough to service a wide range of vehicles, from compact cars to full-size trucks.
- **14,000 lbs. Capacity:** Capable of lifting a broad spectrum of vehicles from small cars to full-size trucks.
- **Open-Front Design:** Eliminates the front crossbar for clear, easy vehicle access and improved operator movement underneath the lift, ideal for alignment work.
- **Patented, Adjustable Front Outrigger Tubes:** Provides infinitely adjustable pitch to compensate for uneven floors and excessive loads, ensuring precise front-lift leveling.
- **Dependable Design:** Features four heavy-duty, high-quality stainless steel lifting cables and a single hydraulic cylinder mounted discreetly underneath the runway for a durable, low-maintenance lifting system.
- **Oversize Dual-Hub Cable Sheaves:** Large 10.5-inch (26.7 cm) diameter cable sheaves and massive 2.25-inch (5.7 cm) diameter sheave axles minimize wear and extend the lifespan of critical components, reducing service costs.
- **Multi-Level Locking Positions:** Equipped with multiple adjustable height locking positions for flexible parking and a convenient push-button pneumatic safety lock control for simultaneous release of all four independent safety locks.
- **Heavy-Duty Aircraft Cable:** Includes four 1/2-inch (1.27 cm) diameter, 6 x 25 stainless steel lifting cables, each rated at 14,400 lbs. (6,532 kg), providing over 411% of the lift's maximum capacity for superior safety and resistance to abrasion and fatigue. All cables are fully enclosed within the lift structure.
- **Maintenance-Free Electric Hydraulic Power System:** Ensures ultimate dependability with conveniently located controls.
- **Large Base Plates:** 12-inch x 10-inch (30.5 x 25.4 cm) base plates provide a solid and stable foundation.
- **Longer Approach Ramps:** Designed with extended length to facilitate easier loading of low ground-clearance vehicles.
- **Integrated Design:** All lifting cables, airlines, safety latches, and sheaves are fully enclosed within the lift's structure for a clean appearance and protection from shop conditions.
- **Integrated Hydraulic Flow Restrictor:** Provides a controlled and safe descent in the unlikely event of a hose rupture.
- **Automatic Safety Locks:** Spring-loaded safety locks automatically engage during raising. A secondary lock system acts as a slack-cable device for added safety in case of cable failure.
- **Optional 7,000-lb. Capacity Rolling Jacks (RJ7W):** Available for full wheel and brake service, these jacks sit on the inner edges of the runways, feature telescoping arms, frame contact pads, three safety-lock positions, and stackable truck/van adapters.
- **ALI Certified:** Ensures compliance with rigorous safety and performance standards.
