    Design differences: hyd car lifts vs hyd lift tables

    Well, it's installed. I added a mechanical stop, but it's working great. Now to the next project: rebuilding the engine on the 911. Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6Y-iRs4Egchttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6Y-iRs4Egc

    Design differences: hyd car lifts vs hyd lift tables

    Thanks. I'm still puzzled as to why a 5K lift table doesn't have any kind of stop, outside of the one for maintenance. It could be that there are some fundamental design differences. It could be that people rarely get underneath lift tables. I wonder if it's harder on the table's hydraulic...

    Design differences: hyd car lifts vs hyd lift tables

    A typical auto lift has a ratcheting stop to bear the weight of a vehicle while it's being worked on. A hydraulic lift table with the same capacity will have things like OSHA electric toe guards to automatically stop lowering and a brass velocity fuse to maintain pressure in case of a failure...
