I have it in place, it has wheels so it is not impossible to move. One thing for sure a 100 lb woman (or a 100lb man) would not be able to move it. The handle hooks into a little trailer hitch gizmo and the wheels let you move it around with some grunting and cussing. You have to put some weight on the handle to get it to tilt back.
On this shot only the top left lift pad is in place. It comes with two sets, one short one taller for trucks. The arms swing and move to allow you to position the lift pads to the proper spot.
You can see the little thingy sticking out on the base of the power unit. It goes into the hole on the lift when the lift is in the down position.
With the lift pads off I can park the El Camino over it with no problem. With the lift pads in position I will need some 2x12 planks on the floor to raise the car up high enough to clear it.
The next project is to cut a pit that is just deep enough to drop the lift into and make the top of it flush with the ground level. I wanted to have the lift here to make sure the pit is the proper size.
This weekend the Elky gets an oil change!
