Limited time only (and limited quantity)
Special low pricing of $1395 on this great two-post lift that offers
single point release and a low arm pad height. This is the perfect lift for those small shops and Mr. Homeowners that need a short column lift with single point release.
Atlas Equipment has a limited number of these lifts in stock and when these lifts are sold (first come first served), the price will move to $1495.
The Atlas BP-8000 is manufactured to the same exacting standards as all Atlas lifts.
We recommend this lift to those customers that need a lift capable of lifting a “Tahoe/Explorer” and down.
Description:
The Atlas BP8000 is a
base-plate two-post lift designed for low ceiling garages. The total column height of 108" (9 feet) allows this lift to be installed in almost any professional or home garage with a ceiling as low as 9 feet 3 inches.
Where Do I Position My Two Post Lift In My Garage?
There are many factors that will determine the best place to mount your two post lift.
Features:
The Atlas BP8000 incorporates an innovative standard manual
single-point safety release, automatic arm restraints, powder coat finish, and heavy-duty chain mounted over dual reliable hydraulic cylinders (one cylinder in each column).
Chain-Over-Roller Cylinder Configuration:
The Atlas BP8000 has the
chain-over-roller cylinder configuration.
There are two popular hydraulic cylinder configurations used in two post electric/hydraulic above ground lifts:
Atlas Equipment sells above ground lifts that incorporate both the
direct drive cylinder configuration and the
chain-over-roller cylinder configuration.
The base plate two post above ground lift implements the
chain-over-roller configuration. This is the only hydraulic cylinder system that is possible in the base plate lift. The base plate two post above ground is designed for “low ceilings”. The
direct drive hydraulic cylinder configuration cannot be used in the base plate lift because the hydraulic cylinder would extend above the 9’ column when the lift arms were raised to the maximum height.
The “overhead” two post above ground lift may incorporate either the
direct drive hydraulic cylinder or the
chain-over-roller hydraulic cylinder.
Super Single-Point Technology:
The Atlas BP8000 features a revolutionary designed manual
single-point safety release system for the BP8000 8,000lb. base-plate lift. The super single-point manual release allows the operator to unlock both column locks from the power unit column.
Many manufacturers incorporate 24 volt electro-mechanical lock release systems that are complicated and unreliable. A manual single-point lock release system provides a mechanically proven system that will perform flawlessly for many years.
Double Lock System:
Atlas Equipment introduces a revolutionary double lock system installed in both lift columns. This new lock system incorporates two locking mechanisms for added safety. The double lock system is automatically activated as the lift is raised. When the vehicle reaches the desired height, the lift is lowered into the next lowest locking position. When the vehicle is ready to be lowered to the ground, the double lock system is disengaged by pulling a handle located near the power unit. There is no need for the operator to go to both columns and manually unlock both column locks. All lifting and lowering operations are controlled from one column post.
Double safety locks built into each column that can be unlocked by one release lever make the Atlas BP8000 base plate lift the safest and easiest to operate base plate lift in the Industry. Two locks...one release...no hassle...available only from ATLAS!
Electrical Requirement:
The electric motor for the power unit requires 220 Volt (single phase) 60 Hz. We recommend using at least a 10 gauge (grounded) wire from the electrical panel. The power unit has a short pigtail (no plug) that can be wired to either a quick disconnect box (mounted on the lift column) or to a male/female plug combination. A 30 amp breaker is recommended.
