GrandPrix (GP-7 Series) Two-Post Lifts 6 P/N 5900209 — August 2018 — Rev. C2
Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What kinds of vehicles can I lift on my GP-7 Series lift?
Answer: Cars, light trucks, and SUVs; up to 7,000 lbs (3,175 kg) each.
Q: How long will it take to raise or lower my vehicle?
A: About 45 seconds, depending on what locking position you use.
Q: Does the lift have to be anchored in place?
A: Yes. Two-post lift posts must be anchored. Your lift comes with high-quality, Automotive Lift
Institute-certified Anchor Bolts; use only the Anchor Bolts that came with your lift.
Q: How thick does my concrete have to be?
A: Concrete specifications are: 4.25 inches thick, 3,000 PSI, cured for a minimum of 28 days. Do not
install the lift on cracked or defective concrete. Do not install the lift on asphalt or any surface other
than concrete.
Q: Can I install my lift outside?
A: No. GP-7 Series lifts are approved for indoor installation and use only. Outdoor installation is
prohibited.
Q: Which end is the front of the lift?
A: To determine the front of your lift, drive a vehicle in straight and stop. The front of the vehicle is
where the front of the lift is.
Q: Does it matter if I drive my vehicles in front first or back them in?
A: No. Most people drive their vehicles in front first, which makes it easier to open the vehicle doors.
Other than that, you can drive your vehicles in whichever way you want; the lift works great either way.
Q: How long can I leave a vehicle up?
A: Basically as long as you want, as long as the lift is on a Safety Lock. The locking system is based
on gravity and smart engineering. Once a Safety Lock is engaged, gravity holds the lift in position, so a
loss of power has no effect; your vehicle is going to stay exactly where you left it. Always leave your lift
either on the ground or on a Safety Lock.
Q: How many Safety Lock positions does my lift have?
A: Eleven, spaced every 4 inches.
