There are no studs coming out of the floor... all that you will have are holes with the inserted threaded anchors in place. Get a few plastic plugs for when the lift is not installed and you are done.
As to the thickness of the concrete. Here is what they have listed in their website:
Do I need a special floor or foundation to support my lift?
Most residential or commercial foundations are strong enough to support a MaxJax lift. The minimum requirements are 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. If your concrete has cracks or other defects, please consult with a certified contractor before proceeding to install the MaxJax lift.
