MaxJax Features

The only specialty tool required is a rotary hammer drill and 7/8” drill-bit for the drop-in anchors. If you don’t have a rotary hammer drill you can usually rent one. Other tools required will be standard wrenches.

A. Every MaxJax lift ships with all necessary anchors and bolts required for mounting the unit to your floor.

The diameter of the drop-in anchors is 7/8”. They facilitate 5/8” diameter high-strength bolts. All concrete fasteners come standard. A rotary hammer drill and 7/8” concrete bit is required for installation.

Electrical work is not necessary. The standard power unit features a dual voltage 115/208-230-volt AC, single phase motor with an industrial-grade power cord and standard household plug.

Our standard power unit will require a 20-amp breaker for 110-volt operation and a 25-amp breaker if you choose to run on 208-230-volts.

Due to current DOT and insurance laws regarding the transport of hydraulic oils ( DOT / Section 1 — Hazardous Ingredients, DOT / Section 2 — Fire and Explosion Hazards and DOT / Section 3 — Health Hazards ) hydraulic fluid is to be supplied by the end-user only and will be required for operation. MaxJax lifts are designed to operate using standard 10-weight, non-foaming, non-detergent hydraulic oil or automatic transmission fluid. This is available in virtually any automotive store.

Most residential or commercial foundations are strong enough to support a MaxJax lift. The minimum requirements is 2500-3000 PSI 4″ thick concrete. Be sure to check your floor on the possibility of it being a post tension slab. In this case contact the building architect before drilling. Visually inspect the site where the lift is to be installed and verify the concrete is in good condition and free of cracks or other defects.

Absolutely. Compared to floor jacks or jack stands, the MaxJax provides increased safety when installed and operated properly. If you’ve ever visited a service garage, dealership or fleet repair business, it’s easy to see that two-post lifts are the lifts of choice among professionals. In fact, the Automotive Lift Institute reports that out of the thousands of car lifts sold monthly, and among the many lift configurations available, two-post style lifts represent well over 63% of the market.

Let’s be clear—the MaxJax is not just a hobby lift. It too is a “real” lift. It’s built by our team of qualified engineers that not only designed the MaxJax, but also our family of full-sized lifts. We’ve got years of experience and we’ve done our math. While most car enthusiasts are talking about 4-bolt mains, our engineers are studying applied force, axial force, bending moment, center of gravity, concentrated load, deflection, deformation, distributed load, ductility, elastic limit, moment, normal strain & stress, potential energy, sheer strain, strength, yield stress, yield strain and so on.

1. A motorcycle and ATV lift adapter for servicing bikes, ATV’s or other motorized vehicles.
2. Variable height stacking adapters accommodate light trucks and vans or SUV’s.
3. Frame cradle pads provide an extra measure of safety when lifting light trucks and vans or SUV’s.

Yes, very easy. Simple ergonomic controls require little if any training – an up button to raise the lift, and a down lever to lower the lift. Always review the operation manually in its entirety before installing and operating the lift.
