The AUTOLift 3000 is a unique tilting lift designed to facilitate vehicle maintenance and repair tasks, making work easier for professionals and auto enthusiasts alike. It is intended for use in various automotive settings, including body shops, repair shops, assembly centers, car showrooms, pre-owned car dealerships, hand car washes, and garages. The lift is specifically designed for lifting vehicles with unibody construction and has a maximum load capacity of 3000 kg (6,614 lbs).

Function Description

The primary function of the AUTOLift 3000 is to safely lift and tilt vehicles, providing improved access to the undercarriage for various tasks. The lift operates by using a drill adapter to raise and lower the vehicle, allowing for precise control over the lifting height. It features two platforms with rubber supports that are placed symmetrically under the vehicle, ensuring stability and preventing damage to fragile parts. The lift can be positioned to raise either the front or rear part of the vehicle, depending on the engine layout and the specific work required. Once lifted, the vehicle can be secured with a safety pin, and a jack stand can be used for additional support, especially when tilting the vehicle. The tilting feature allows for manual adjustment of the vehicle's angle, providing enhanced accessibility to different sections of the undercarriage.

Usage Features

The AUTOLift 3000 is designed for user-friendly operation, but adherence to safety guidelines is paramount.

Assembly: The lift requires initial assembly, which involves attaching platforms, caster wheels, and securing various components. Clear instructions are provided for this process.
Placement: The assembled lift should be placed on a hard, flat, and non-slip surface. For uneven surfaces or to protect polished pavements, the use of rails for uneven surfaces is recommended. The gear box housings should be positioned based on the vehicle's motor location (front or rear engine) to ensure proper weight distribution.
Lifting: To raise the vehicle, a drill with a minimum 10 Amp motor (120V) is used with the provided drill adapter. The drill is operated in a clockwise direction. Users must not exceed the maximum lifting height indicated by the red label on the adjustable arm.
Securing: Once the desired height is reached, the lift must be secured by inserting the safety pin into the respective slot on the adjustable arm. The vehicle's stability should be checked before any work begins.
Lowering: To lower the vehicle, the safety pin must first be removed. The drill is then operated slowly in a counterclockwise direction until the vehicle rests on its wheels.
Tilting: The lift allows for manual tilting of the front or rear part of the vehicle. This is achieved by adjusting the position of the gearbox housings relative to the vehicle's wheels. When tilting, it is crucial to grab a solid part of the vehicle (e.g., fender, bumper) and ensure the jack stand is correctly repositioned afterward. The manufacturer explicitly warns against tilting the vehicle if anyone or anything is underneath it.
Safety Precautions:
- Never use a compressed air impact valve or hammer drilling tools.
- Always remove the safety pin before lowering the lift.
- Do not force the drill when the lift is flat, as this can cause damage.
- Do not exceed the stated capacity of 3000 kg.
- Always use safety gloves and steel toe safety work boots.
- Never modify the product's specifications or parts.
- Do not use the lift if it is damaged or broken.
- Always use the jack stand when working under a lifted vehicle.
- Avoid using the lift on very muddy, non-horizontal, or uneven surfaces with large holes or a tendency to collapse.
- The travelling wheels can leave marks on polished pavements; using rails or a sheet metal plate is advised in such cases.

Maintenance Features

The AUTOLift 3000 is designed to be low-maintenance.

Cleaning: The product does not require special maintenance. For cleaning, only a soft wet or dry cloth should be used. Abrasive products, cleaning pads, or aggressive cleaners should not be used, as they may damage the product.
Grease: Grease streaks may appear on the tubes during initial use. These do not indicate damage to the product and can be cleaned with a soft cloth. Users should be aware that grease can be difficult to remove from clothes or skin.
Storage: The AUTOLift 3000 can be stored by leaning it against a wall on its gearbox housings or by hanging it on a wall using a special holder (available as an accessory). The recommended storage temperature is between 0 °C (35 °F) and +40 °C (104 °F). It should be stored away from heat sources like radiators, boilers, or direct sunlight to prevent damage to the rubber beam pads and to avoid metal parts becoming excessively hot.
