Safety is a major part of the 9APF design. BendPak’s Automatic Swing Arm Restraint System uses a forged-steel restraint with 360-degree grip to help keep the arms locked in position during service. Multiple safety-lock positions and single-point lock release add control during lifting and lowering, while dual hydraulic cylinders and heavy-duty equalizer cables support stable operation. The lift is built for day-to-day shop use with large steel base plates, single-piece columns, self-lubricating UHMW carriage sliders, oversized sheaves, and straightforward service access. For low-ceiling shops that need a serious two-post lift instead of a workaround, the 9APF is built to keep vehicles supported, technicians moving, and bays earning.
