PKS Lifts

Depending on the model of choice, these lifts usually consist of two or three In-Ground hydraulic lifting pistons installed in a modular or continuous trench in a direct line with one other and are consistent with a vehicle’s central axis.  Each piston is driven by a high-pressure cylinder enclosed within the pistons structure and is equipped to safely engage a vehicle’s lifting points. Depending on the model the front and center lifting pistons are capable of moving along the same axis to create the appropriate space needed for any vehicle to be situated onto its lifting points. The pistons move using a twin chain, pneumatically driven Z-drive. The rear lifting cylinder is fixed and non-movable with a retractable saddle or adapter.
