Half-scissor vehicle lift

Stertil-Koni has released Skylift, a half-scissor vehicle lift that is ALI/ETL compliant, easily portable and installable in flush-mounted or surface-mounted configurations, the company said.

"Skylift is a product that combines the best features of our conventional lifts, creating a supremely flexible lifting system," said Stertil-Koni president Jean DellAmore. "For instance, most other platform lifts rely on a fixed-base frame system for stability, but frames present tripping hazards and cross members create obstructions that limit access. Skylift's innovative design does not require base frames or crossbeams--meaning a totally clear, unobstructed work area."

According to the company, the modular lifting platforms provide complete under-chassis operator access, which can be easily repositioned to accommodate differing axle width. It is built for multiple loading configurations and has 31 mechanical locking positions, Stertil-Koni said.
