As you can see, it is more than adequate for a 75 tourer, and is single phase.
It is twin hydraulic cylinder with mechanical ratchet interlock, with a single sided release mechanism. I'd rather give it away to somebody for free, than have the thief use it and all of the other equipment he has no intention of paying for. Brian |

Oh so jealous, I wish I could have one but I don't have the head room, if I move.
I will monitor this thread with real interest. For those with lifts or intending to get one, what have you or will you have for driving up and over the arms? Just a warning, check what amperage the lifts draw to make sure your power supply cable can handle it. macafee2 |

Me too. When we were buying a house a few years ago it came down to this one which was more or less ready to move straight into, or another one which needed a bit of work but had a garden the size of a football pitch and more importantly a massive garage with an inspection pit. As I had a broken tibia / fibula and the wife was 8 months pregnant we opted for the ready to go house, which I always regret! Next time I'll get somewhere with potential for a lift. But as the wife is 8 months pregnant again I'll be looking on with jealous admiration for a while yet haha

I will be watching this post with intent.
My garage is a nice size but not quite high enough. What minimum height are people needing?. I would consider lifting the roof ( which I could do with planning permission) and fitting a ramp. I don't trust Chinese manufacture too much hence watching what people buy with interest. Ultimately I would like to park one car under another but for that it would need to be 4 x post and that's a different game.

We got new lifts at work and the old ones were sold off, mine was in excellent condition and had been fully serviced and safety inspected every year. It was sold for £250 but unfortunately my garage isn’t tall enough to house it although one of my friends bought it.
