The Direct-Lift 14F 14,000 LB. four post commercial grade lift is built for years of dependable service for the busiest of automotive shops. This heavy duty four post lift utilizes top quality aircraft cable actuated by an oversized hydraulic cylinder (located underneath the runway) to provide the smoothest and safest method of lifting both small cars and large trucks. You can trust the Nationwide name for many years of dependable service.
The runways on the Direct-Lift 14K four post lift can be adjusted to be perfectly level without the use of shims under each column. The lock ladder system allows the installer to level the runways (both front to rear and side to side) with the dual adjusting bolts located at the top of each column.
The Direct-Lift 14K is equipped with our unique air-operated DOUBLE LOCK system.
When you add the Direct-Lift Wheel Alignment Kit to the Direct-Lift 14K four post lift, you can perform both two wheel alignment and four wheel alignment on most of the vehicles found in the USA.
The RJ 70 (7,000 LB rolling jacks) will allow the operator to perform a variety of wheel services while the vehicle is still on the Direct-Lift 14K four post lift. The RJ 70 rolling jacks are very popular accessories for those garages performing two wheel alignment or four wheel alignment.
The complete Nationwide 14K weighs just over 3,000 LB. and is one of the best built 4 post lifts sold in the USA. Please compare the steel thickness and the quality of construction to any other four post lift. Click here to get to photo gallery with specifications.
Certain competitors offer a four post lift with the old-style chain lifting method. The chain lifting method has many disadvantages when compared to the hydraulic cable method found on the Direct-Lift 14K four post lift.
The exposed hydraulic cylinder found on the chain style four post lifts is located between one of the front columns and the rear column. Certain competitors show a truck lifted on their old style chain lift. The truck is positioned so that the customer cannot see the hydraulic cylinder located between the columns. This hydraulic cylinder is responsible for many door dings. The cylinder (whether located on the driver's side or the passenger's side) makes opening the vehicle doors very difficult.
The AIR OPERATED DOUBLE LOCK designed for the Direct-Lift 14K offers many more safety features than the locking system on other four post lifts.
One of the more important safety features of the cable four post lift compared to the chain style is the use of the rolling jacks.
The Direct-Lift 14K has very wide FIXED runways that will accommodate everything from a FORD F550 to a TRIUMPH TR 6. These FIXED runways offer a solid lifting platform for the RJ 70 rolling jacks that roll down the center of the lift. When the rolling jack is used to lift a vehicle off of the four post lift's runways, there is an extreme downward force applied to the inside of both runways. The old-style chain 4-post lifts normally have one runway that is moveable. This moveable runway (when pressured with the downward force of a rolling jack) may easily kick out and allow the jack to become separated from the inside of the runway. If you own an old style chain four post lift, we would recommend that you bolt down the moveable runway to avoid an accident. The old style chain lifts have moveable runways because the width of their runways is narrower than the runways on an Direct-Lift 14K four post lift.
The Direct-Lift 14K above ground lift should be installed on a concrete floor. This concrete floor should have a minimum of four (4) inches of concrete with 3000 PSI strength.
