With 4 post hoists, a wide range of heavy mechanical work can be accomplished efficiently and safely, making them an ideal choice for heavy vehicles. Here are some examples of the types of work typically done with 4 post hoists:

Transmission and Drivetrain Maintenance: 4 post hoists are well-suited for maintenance and repairs on heavy vehicle transmissions and drivetrains. The hoist’s sturdy construction and lifting capacity enables easy access to the vehicle’s underside, allowing technicians to work on components such as transmissions, differentials, drive shafts, and axles.

Suspension and Steering System Repairs: Heavy vehicles often require maintenance or repairs to their suspension and steering systems. With a 4 post hoist, technicians can safely lift the vehicle off the ground, providing convenient access to inspect and service components such as suspension springs, shock absorbers, steering linkages, and control arms.

Brake and Wheel Service: 4 post hoists make brake and wheel service more convenient for heavy vehicles. Technicians can lift the vehicle to a comfortable working height, making it easier to perform brake pad replacements, rotor resurfacing and calliper repairs. This is particularly important for heavy vehicles, as their brake systems and wheels require specialised attention due to their size and weight.

Exhaust System Repairs: Heavy vehicles often have complex exhaust systems that require periodic maintenance and repairs. With a 4 post hoist, technicians can lift the vehicle to an appropriate height, providing easy access to the exhaust system for inspections, repairs, or replacements of components such as mufflers, catalytic converters, and exhaust pipes.

Accessory Installations: 4 post hoists provide a stable and secure platform for installing various accessories on heavy vehicles. Whether mounting additional equipment, such as hydraulic systems, lift gates, or specialised truck bodies, or performing modifications and customisations, the hoist’s lifting capacity and spacious platform make handling the heavy loads associated with these installations easier.

By using a 4 post hoist for heavy mechanical work, technicians can benefit from the convenience, safety, and stability these robust lifting solutions provide. Levanta’s 4 post hoists are specifically designed to handle the demanding requirements of heavy vehicles, ensuring efficient workflow and reliable performance for a wide range of maintenance and repair tasks.

When choosing between a hoist and a pit for a heavy vehicle, truck or bus workshop, it’s essential to consider your operation’s specific needs and requirements. Both options have their advantages and considerations. 

4 Post Hoists

– Flexibility and Mobility: 4 Post Hoists offer the advantage of mobility, allowing you to install them in different areas of your workshop or even move them if needed. This flexibility can be beneficial if you have limited space or plan to reconfigure your workshop layout.

– Ease of Installation: Hoists typically require less time and effort than pits. They can be quickly set up and ready for use, minimising disruption to your workshop operations.

– Versatility: Hoists come in various configurations, including 2 post and 4 post options, offering flexibility in lifting different heavy vehicles. They can accommodate multiple vehicle sizes and are suitable for various maintenance and repair tasks.

– Accessibility: Hoists provide elevated platforms that allow technicians easy access to the vehicle’s underside for inspections, repairs, and maintenance work. This accessibility can improve efficiency and productivity in the workshop.

Service Pits

– Cost-Effectiveness: Workshop pits can be more cost-effective than hoists, especially considering the initial investment. Pits eliminate the need for purchasing and installing lifting equipment.

– Space Optimization: Pits use the existing floor space efficiently, as they are recessed into the workshop floor. This can be advantageous for smaller workshops or facilities where space is limited.

– Accessibility and Ergonomics: Workshop pits provide a convenient working height for technicians as they can stand at ground level while working on the underside of vehicles. This can enhance ergonomics and reduce physical strain during maintenance and repair tasks.

– Multi-Purpose Use: Pits can serve multiple purposes besides vehicle servicing. They can be used for vehicle inspections, fluid changes, and cleaning operations, making them versatile in a workshop environment.

Ultimately, the choice between a hoist and a pit depends on factors such as workshop space, budget, workflow requirements, and the specific needs of your heavy vehicle operation.
