Other Lifts

Q: How stable is the Atlas TD6 MR midrise lift when there is a vehicle on it?
A: The Atlas TD6MR lift is very stable when in operation and when raised to the highest locked position. This lift is perfect for body work or wheel service.


Q: My air operated motorcycle lift won't operate properly. Can I fix it?
A: If you have just received a NEW lift OR your Motorcycle lift has not been used for a period of time...the seal may be stuck and needs a little "jump start". If there does not appear to be an air leak from either you air hose or the lift cylinder...and if you have supplied the lift with about 100 PSI...and you have NOT overloaded the lift...then have two people lift slightly on the platform. The "extra" help may free a stuck seal. Remember to keep the cylinder seal properly lubricated. (See owner's manual). When the seal becomes dry (and brittle), it can become stuck in the cylinder. A lubricated seal (that does not leak) will ensure the proper lifting for your motorcycle lift.

If you notice an air leak from the cylinder; then you need a new seal kit.


Q: What gauge of steel is used for the Atlas Motorcycle Lift?
A: Most Atlas motorcycle lift products are made from 10 gauge diamond plate steel.


Q: What is the voltage on the motors of your lifts?
What is the horse power on the motors for your lifts?
A: Most of our mid-rise lifts and lo-rise lifts are operated by a 110V power unit motor.


Q: How much hydraulic oil will my lift need?
A: Large scissor lifts may require up to 5 gallons.

Mid-rise lifts require about two gallons. Check the technical information page for each lift's hydraulic oil requirements.

Hydraulic fluids can typically be found at most local parts, home improvement, or tractor supply stores.

Shipping regulations will not permit Greg Smith Equipment Sales from shipping hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic oil is available at our INDY location.



Q: I didn't get a manual or any instructions with my lift?
A: Yes...you probably did (and lost it).  However, most installation manuals are available on our web site. We can also mail, fax, or email a copy to you.
